I know I am going to sound like I have spent way to much time analyzing Friends nips but here goes...

I’m sorry of this comes off as rude, but you are having a general reading comprehension issue about the content and context of the The Root article, and Lourde’s statement on Twitter.

Right, I was just like wtf? The Root said “Now is not the time” for #notallwhitepeople or #explainatlengthhownottobearacist,blackfriend, not don’t take responsibility for a racist system most easily changed by the people in power vs the oppressed.

eh, i think whitney’s putting two things together that don’t really go together in an uphelpful way that undermines the importance of the root’s article...the root’s article is about not putting the burden of white emotions on black people at this time. lorde says she is sorry that white people are behaving in this…

Looks great, but not exactly aging backwards.

That is exactly what the person you’re replying to said.

How come a picture of the arrested man doesn’t appear? Why was that purposefully left out?

What you do is avoid showing a picture of him because black males are sad about crime rates. I think he’s a convert, btw, based upon the changes to his name, as compared to his mother. Let’s not talk about it though!

A man named Kariem Ali Muhammad Moore...

Where did we get in our heads as a society that being a victim renders one blameless? Every victim in the history of victims could have knowingly or unknowingly done something to change their lives before they were victimized. In a sane world we could take it on a case-by-case basis before screaming “victim blaming!”…

I once tried to smuggle a truck past customs, one messy cavity search later and three people were dead, crushed under the weight of a semi, and i was facing multiple counts of accidental manslaughter...of course, due to the fact that my body structure had collapsed into a blob of its former self after the trucks…

Of course being a celebrity doesn’t excuse bad manners. My point was that Charlize is known to be a rude jerk in general. And that it’s lame to try to chat up celebrities. That’s all.

Atv show & A talk show?!? Well then!

I don’t know why the Mowrys seem to think they are actual celebrities & not a nostalgia trip people fondly remember.

i had no idea they’d bill a person for their services.

A *female celebrity* who we’re all supposed to hate because she’s not an Approved Feminist (TM) (see also: Taylor Swift.)

Good lord, nothing like a story about a celebrity rehoming a pet to get all the Expert Dog Saviours out of the woodworks. She didn’t tie the bloody dog to a tree in the forest. She got a dog, there was clearly a problem between the dog and his environment/owner, the dog now lives somewhere else. There are so many…

Two of the shelter dogs I have are great, but one... She never recovered, and just got progressively worse. She was very unpredictable with children, adults other than me, and other dogs. I took her to a trainer and was told to put her down. I didn’t! But until her last day she was unstable, and I lived in fear of her…

The vicious judgment about Lena’s dog is so sad...if you hate her you probably haven’t heard much about the story of that dog, how much she loved him and how hard she tried. Lamby repeatedly bit people, badly. You can’t responsibly keep a dog after 4 years trying to correct that behavior.
