Aww, you finally figured out what those toxic black ladies over on twitter have been telling you for months! Good for you!

As a person who got into a weird twitter fight with this lady over her watching 12 years a slave and it causing her to think about how mean people were being to Macklemore, I can attest that she is the goddamn worst.

I've googled every name and reference in this post, but I still don't have a clue what is happening.

It makes me sad and conflicted that Neil Gaiman is married to her, and continues to be married to her, seemingly by his own choice

I don't find that very convincing evidence of poor parenting in and of itself. There are certainly plenty of mothers and partnered couples who considered abortion, and we don't tend to question their commitment to their children after they're born.

Exactly. If she wanted the baby but didn't want him to be involved. . . don't tell him its his. Easy enough. But you can't sue for paternal support, then get mad when he sues back to see the kid that now exists (and he's aware of because you told him).

All of this!

So? She made the decision to keep her and perhaps he decided to do his fucking job and be a good father. Shit there are lots of mothers who didn't initially want them but went on to be good parents.

I know so many people who did not plan on having a child and were upset when they found out they/their partner were pregnant. That doesn't mean they can't love their child and want to be a good parent if they have him or her.

"I don't think a man should ever offer up abortion in response to an unwanted pregnancy. He should just ask her what she wants to do."

What if his opinion was solicited? Is it one of those questions with only one correct answer?

According to TMZ, Tamika Fuller (pictured above on the far right) says the rapper-cum-actor initially wanted her to abort their daughter Cai Bridges when she told him she was pregnant. Fuller says he "offered her $10,000 and a house if she lost the baby."

According to that logic a mother who considered abortion (but ultimately decided to have the baby) could be described as unfit.

Has no one ever changed their mind about becoming a parent?

There's a difference between doing something "wrong" and doing something "unethical." He contacted a rape victim afterwards because she "assisted them with recruiting." It was 4 days after the rape...aka: 2 days after the police had become involved. Yeah, not illegal...but pretty fucked up that a football coach is

Players shall sit out the first half of the season opener.

Gratified with the results contingent on the sentences being appropriate for the crimes. However, I can't escape the feeling that James Franklin is due some responsibility for the post-incident attempts to avoid justice.

I'm a black woman and I remember a guest asking me if I was born in Africa because my skin was so dark. I told them I just had gotten back from spending seven days in the Florida sun.

*approaches suavely* "Why hello there, cupcake. I couldn't help noticing that you're not paper-white. Mind if I ask why?"

Good. I'm glad you liked it. Glad. You. Liked. It.
