    Sadly, if Trump said he raped a woman it would probably endear him MORE to his supporters. That is the cloth of which they are cut.

    I used to work with a program much like the Innocence Project and after that year my biggest take away was NEVER talk to the police if you are a suspect of person of interest. If they can’t arrest, they don’t have enough evidence. The reason they are questioning you is to fact find based on your words, construct a

    Oh, I agree. There are the “safe” biopics and then ones like Malcolm X (done by Spike Lee in 1993, I believe) are not even considered. That was a really fucking good film.

    To be fair, Jamie Foxx played someone legendary. Even with his struggles, the film did a good job portraying Ray Charles as a well-rounded person who eventually triumphed over addiction. But for the rest...right on the money.

    Yes. And I don’t think anyone is advocating for that. I think the backlash is, like DuVernay pointed out, about the movie production process overall. You have a lot of white men greenlighting stories for other white actors without consideration to cast those roles to someone other than white. I mean, I keep seeing

    It’s hard to explain if you have never worked with mentally challenged children, but that type of contemplation is common among those with cognitive disabilities. In many situations, they are looking for the “right” answers, almost like a people pleasing mechanism on steroids. He might not have any mental illnesses,

    My bf and I were yelling at the TV like “INVESTIGATE THE BF AND ROOMMATE!!!” I was so annoyed. From everything we know from the ID Channel, they should have been on the top of the list. Avery’s cousin/BIL should have as well.

    He definitely had comprehension issues with the questions they were asking. You could see how much he was grasping at answering the questions “right” so he could go home. Think of it this way. If you ask a neurotypical 16 year old kid questions, even if they were scared or nervous, they would answer them with

    There is an entire documentary that exists to educate you. Please do that.

    People who are uninsured can look into prescription discount cards to cut costs for stuff like this. I have one and for the generic form of what I take the lowest cost for a month’s supply is $9. The highest is $28. (It’s dependent on which pharmacy I use). So there are definitely options to save money.

    You can totally do it! My friend had to do it that way and she was able to lose a whole lot of weight. Even if you start cutting sugar slowly, you will still reap a lot of benefits. You got this!

    Try joining an internet community that focuses on weight loss. Just like people find camaraderie here, you can find the same type online for weight loss. And, follow the 80/20 rule for weight loss. 80 percent focus on good eating habits and 20 percent focus on exercise. Exercise is awesome, but without the eating

    I’d consult with someone who trains and has a similar body type to you. The reason I say that is because sometimes it’s genetics that make all the difference but there are some tips that can help you achieve the look you are looking for. Also, are you lifting heavy or light? Heavy lifting will get you results faster,

    That sentence bothered me too but I couldn’t figure out why. You nailed it.

    I feel for your pain. I just want you to know the Willie Lynch letter is not true. Type in “Willie Lynch letters fake” into Google. Many results from credible sources. I always tell my friends this because no matter the subject, knowledge is power and misinformation hurts us all.

    Um, isn’t that pronounced “sha-vaughn” though?

    To me, it’s like the name Genevieve. I think French folks pronounce that “John-vee-evh”. Both aren’t wrong, just a matter of where you are from.

    True. But they can still have a central idealogical theme on the site as well.

    I’m bored at work which is why I’m on here. When I’m at home, I don’t get on. Which is a departure from how I used to use the site. So I definitely understand your sentiment.
