I tried to tell somebody that the last time Lightfoot was on The Root because of Anjanette Young. They got every excuse in the book for her. There’s benefit of the doubt and then there’s, “ah I see you want to be a black person above reproach unlike the other peasants” syndrome.

Boooooy do you know how bad you gotta fuck up for FOX News to put a Trump ally on blast?

We’re going to start seeing this more and more. As black folks start to rightfully reclaim discourse/culture that is their own, they’re also going to be asked to be accountable for their own micro-aggressions and missteps with appropriation. To RiRi’s credit, she handled the situation with a song during her fashion…

Trying to figure out why Tamron has been so messy on this show. Literally nobody wanted this interview. If even RuPaul and VH1 decided that Sherry wasn’t worth fighting for, what did this add?

“It’s not about giving abusers a platform. R Kelly comes to mind.”
R Kelly was an award winning, very rich musician that had a…

I think if this hadn’t turned out well, she probably would have.

I really feel for Raz B because suddenly all the “what about men getting raped?” and “emasculation of black men” folks are equally silent. It’s such a poorly kept secret that Nicki Minaj once said, “violate your asses like Chris Stokes” in one of her songs. On top of that, Omarion is friendly with Marques Houston who…

This brought up feelings about my ex. Thankfully they were never abusive but they took any sort of admission of guilt on my part as validation that they’re a good person and I’m a bad one rather than see it as someone wishing they had done things better.

Cdwag is irritating. My personal favorite rant involved calling someone a tr*ns*xual like bro??? Reading his posts is like listening to TI. Man shut up. You’re not as smart or as educated as you think you are.

Gloating over someone getting a serious illness, even if they engaged in risky behaviors that led to them contracting it, is how you create the kind of stigma that keeps people from disclosing/seeking treatment.

Choosing public health over virtue is the real moral high ground.

THANK YOU. It’s insane that nobody is actually reading the story. Him understanding the previous science around polyurethane AND black hair is what made this a success.

There is a solvent. You can buy it online.

The difference is that no one should need to buy one made for removing industrial grade adhesive from their hair. This was a freak accident and special case, not an every day thing.

1.) He didn’t figure it out in two days. Gorilla Glue tweeted the solution to her and scientists have described how to dissolve moisture-bonding polyurethane going back at least 10 years. He used the same method. What he did figure out is that by adding aloe vera and olive oil to retain the moisture in black hair, he…

Honestly she was only on there to show that they “care” about the older generation, black ones in particular, and then gave her the boot when that well ran dry. Nobody can tell me Tamisha was the worst on a season where Tina Burner exists.

For me, she’s a broken clock that’s right twice a day. Harvey Weinstein can be a shitbag and she can also be a Republican TERF that used a movement to get a TV show.

Gonna be interested to hear Rose #JustMeNotMeToo McGowan’s take on this

Honestly it’s ridiculous that Greene can even hold public office but I’m not surprised. She is the logical conclusion of “respect differing opinions” when those opinions involve whether or not black people have the right to live. Get rid of every “defund the police” is a bad slogan white woman on the Left and the…

You can’t actually blame the people who are making money off folks losing their jobs. You have to blame it on immigrants and taxes.

I always get re-disappointed when I think about how we had the opportunity to elect her and remember we didn’t because we’re an anti-intellectual/anti-admission of fault society.

I wouldn’t blame the people who got it because the outcome would them being not vaccinated and the vaccine going to waste. Nobody wins there.

However, I do blame CVS and Walgreens for the botched rollout. Getting a contract to do necessary public health should not be used as a customer perk.

It’s likely gonna come down to two from Gottmik, Symone, and Denali plus a filler like Utica or Kandy.
