Fox News reaps what they sow. Suddenly they have no idea what to do with frothing at the mouth conspiracy nutcases and the lumbering behemoth of tea partiers. It’s like watching Mickey Mouse frantically try to control the brooms he’s accidentally brought to life as they completely wreck the place.
Taylor, can you please elope? Running off to marry in secret is the most romantic thing ever. And it has the added benefit of not clogging my newsfeed with endless stories about the run-up to your wedding. What I’m getting at: Go Away.
“I am not one to slut-shame, I have done slutty behavior myself.”
Most anti-gay laws in Africa were written by either King Henry VIII, the colonial British, or modern American NGOs. Homophobia is the western influence.
Is it just me, or does this sound like the worst fucking idea ever? I mean, does “Black [anything]” work in 2015? That’s just so...weird to me. There are so many talented black writers in mainstream media; why can’t we continue to encourage and support the black culture within it? I dunno, maybe I’m naive.
her whole fucking career is weaksauce.
Her WHOLE catalog is about women’s fat asses? Really? Anaconda is, but Pill n Potions is not. You shouldn’t make ridiculous generalizations just because you don’t like an artist’s music.
I heard one of my coworkers make that joke this morning. The motorcade went right past my work this morning, and most of us were watching it, and another one was saying that she didn’t care and wished they’d crash. Which, really? I don’t recall such venom around previous presidents, not when they were visiting. I…
No. You don’t understand. It’s not just the content of their lyrics that people respond to, but the musicality behind it, the funky, blues-inspired production. It’s reporting on the harsh realities of the ghetto even as you romanticize the criminality of it. And UGK were one of the few “gangster rap” artist to…
Shut up, Dora.
The greatest verse in all of Southern Rap (maybe even all of Hip-Hop) period that truly evokes the misery and bleakness of the ghetto is Pimp C’s verse on “High Life” from 1996’s Ridin Dirty. If you don’t have all of UGK’s albums in your MP3 library, you just aren’t a real fan of rap music period.
White girl being a rap mogul and throwing gang signs(?). Another case of appropriation? Let’s just hope Amandla Stenberg won’t notice!
intersectional feminism became a thing bc of mainstream feminism’s/feminism’s beginnings were focused solely/continue to focus on white,cis,financially stable women. you’reusing it in the wrong way.
And everything tells me its womanist contexts are similarly missed by Femme Trump the Younger.
Oh god, straight wealthy white capitalists misappropriating Audre Lorde...this is the nightmare
White people are fucked up.
Fuck allies. This is one of hundreds of reasons we should be done with “allies.” Why should anyone speak for or get cookie points from an oppressed group?
I don't have to, as a feminist, support stupidity just because it is being peddled by someone else who identifies as a feminist.
