It’s like you’re trying to prove the point of the sentence that you’re trying to argue with.

You need to redo this headline. Anyone that knows anything about Dave knows his reverence for funk, R&B and all black music. Shit Prince said he was a good drummer. That works for me.

That headline is fucking ridiculous. I don’t have an ounce of musical talent and even I could reproduce that drum pattern he’s illustrating in the video. In no way, shape or form is he saying the drummer in the Gap Band wasn’t any good. He knows what works, and so did the drummer who originated the pattern- and Grohl

Dave Grohl is from the DMV and pays homage and due respect to all Black artistry including GO-GO. I disagree with your header as he has always been about the music of our folks with humility and reverence. Always. Idk where the privilege was presented especially since he publicly and privately gave Tony Thompson his fl

Normally, what happens on any Real Housewives franchise is not quite fodder for this particular venue.

Do a quick check for me: Google highest grossing current stars, particularly for women. You’ll see Sofia Vergara, Gal Gadot, Viola Davis, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Rihanna, etc. Seems like often as not, the highest grossing stars in the West tend to be in relationships or just recently out of a relationship, and often as

Sometimes, shutting the fuck up is the best move.

Is Rumsfeld burning in hell right now?

I fully support survivors of sexual assault coming forward. My post was in no way intended to be insensitive to their truth.”

Very VERY tired of rape-supporters co-opting language from queer people, e.g. "speak your truth."  No.  That's got to stop now.  

Throughout this entire ordeal, Phylicia has been defending Cosby. Blindly, cowardly, and with little thought as to the VICTIMS. I suspect that plenty of Howard Alumni and current students are very concerned about her “Deanship”, which seems like more of an money making position on behalf of the University. I doubt

Not to mention that you can compete without being affiliated with any country. So, no, it’s not about representing a country. It’s about competing against the best in the world. And it’s totally OK to be an activist while doing that (I mean, it’s totally OK morally. The IOC sucks and says it isn’t OK with them.)

Two points:

Everything they do reveals them as performative outrage artists who don’t believe any of the shit they spew.

Making Black Women the Villains of Their Culture War

Black Americans do not owe the flag a single god damn ounce of respect or reverence. Plus they already punished her raising her fist which should totally be allowed. She could burn that dirty fucking symbol on stage for all I fucking care.

By law you are allowed to recreate art and even sell it”

Did I say they were pursuing legal action against the dude? He is in trouble because they took his levels down, which we just read an article on why that’s a personal tragedy for the guy, and Ubisoft did it to cover their asses from MGM suing their asses, during the course of which I’m positing they would have brought

IP is a legal construct. Like any law. You can agree or disagree with it, but saying it’s not real is as meaningful as saying your right to own private property isn’t real.
