People need to stop filling their kids up with soda on anything other than special occasions. I still remember seeing a mother tell a young kid to drink up all of his large Sprite in a food court one morning because “you needs your vitamins.” Bish, that is not real lemons and limes in the plastic cup.

I think its more soda being acceptable for toddlers and children, sugars being added to everything, overconsumption of all foods but particularly junk) combined with sedentary lifestyles that’s the culprit.

So refreshing to read those offers and scholarships for a non-athlete!  Good on her and her parents, I wish her all the happiness.  

It’s the food quality (all that corn infused yuckiness...) Duh.

I will still say it was planned. Since when is a black man going to slap another black man on national television and no security comes out and escorts them both out of the building and straight to the pokey? Please. Will even had a smirk on his face after he was walking off the stage.

How can someone have a comment history filled with nothing but “kill yourself” and not be banned?

I’d argue that it’s the other way around: It shows how unprotected Black women are. No way in hell would Chris Rock have made that joke about a white woman suffering from a serious medical condition.

I can understand the lack of immediate response, it seemed like a gag at first complete with comedy sound effect and then ABC mutes the audio so you can’t hear the exchange. It seems irresponsible to not have had him escorted out afterward once the dust settled though I’m sure probably guaranteed more eyeballs than…

God bless that woman for having to put up with the GOP’s shit with the grace, poise, and even-handedness that underqualified people like Brett Kavanaugh didn’t even try to bring to his confirmation hearing.

Dismiss that racist piece of shit bennyboy.

Meanwhile cruz was no where near as tough when asked about known pedo roy moore in Alabama

Elected by the people. Some were appointed when state legislators picked them.

Sure, she was top of her class, has a distinguished career, and an even temperament, but —and I think this is critical— does she like beer and coach softball. Cuz I hear those are the next-level judging skills.

As the Root correctly states, he is “only the fourth Black person POPULARLY elected to the Senate and the first from New Jersey.” Other examples were appointed under different circumstances.

Hell, I was teary when I heard Cory Booker on NPR yesterday. I don’t know how Ketanji Brown Jackson held it together. Maybe she was thinking “don’t give the Republicans yet one more fucking thing to throw at you; if you lose it, they’ll just say you’re ‘temperamentally unfit’ and ask how you’ll make decisions during…

You know what, I agree with Lil’ Lindsey Graham’s hysterical rant about dangerous terrorists, the enemies of America being swept away to Guantanamo. The Senate Sergeant at Arms should be directed to immediately cuff, shackle and bag him, Cruz, Hawley and the rest of the Republican Senators that continue to support the…

When I read about her after her nomination, I believed she was qualified for the job.

They will also “dance” to a Bob Marley song. It will be a painfully bad dance.

The Royals are hopeless. A one thousand year old monarchy with nothing to show for their time on the throne but scant compassion for their own people and domination and cruelty towards the rest of humanity—-most especially—and almost exclusively—- nations of color. They will not change substantively. This hallowed…

What they could/should do: reply to invite the letter writers to a meeting where they could dialogue on what the royal family could do to improve British-Jamaican relations and improve the lives of the Jamaican people.
