You don’t even need the gif. Look to the right in the original picture.

I’m three years younger than she would be. I remember watching her on BET/Rap City as a teenager, and just being in awe. I don’t really have celebrity crushes, but damn I loved her. She was my high school celebrity fantasy crush.

40!!!  I suppose she’s stuck in her 20's in my mind.  Anyway, I cannot recall anyone who was smoother with it than Aaliyah!!

Nah man, it wasn’t cool on my part. I wrote it after inserting the quote from mom that misgendered her, then went back and did the same without thinking. Noted and corrected, I’m all about letting folks be who they wanna.

Pause.

Make no mistake. This is what white people are supposed to be doing.

I am just tired of seeing those who put forth the effort treated as try hards or accused of looking for validation while others get chance after chance because they date black or can milly rock.

Eminem has done what for the culture exactly?…

To the other commenters, where did they act like they cured inequality? They proved a point and people, like local news, took notice. That’s like step #1 of deconstructing white supremacy - using your privilege to not only acknowledge it exists but also right the wrongs it produced.

I see this divergence around what’s…

Not even close. One uncomfortable night isn’t comparable to him fearmongering rubes every damn day. As long as they don’t get violent I’m all for them protesting in front of his crib.

Honestly, I’m okay with it all too.  Sod this “oh no, Fox News will be mean!” nonsense.  They’re mean over nothing.  So, might as well protest Tucker and drive him out of him home like the Alt-right do to people like Dr. Blasey-Ford.

I don’t see what’s so bad. He’s been instrumental in getting millions angry to the point where they’re cool(er) with ICE agents stealing parents from their homes, even after they drop their kids at school. He’s been instrumental at getting millions of people cool(er) with ripping families apart at the border, and…

While Fox News lives for shit like this...I ain’t really mad. I hope MPD was their usual lazy selves in response.

I will not be subscribing to Smash Racism DC’s newsletter, but also, I’m not mad at them because Tucker Carlson is 101% basura.

When my cousin was pregnant, I happened to mention to her that I’d hated being pregnant (a few years earlier). My pregnancy was planned and much-wanted, and I love being a mother to my amazing daughter - I just hated the being pregnant part. Partly it was because I had HG (lots and lots of puking throughout) but…

Thank you for this, honestly.  As someone who is not pretty and knows it, I don’t need people lying and saying “oh you’re beautiful!!!” the point is, she shouldn’t HAVE to be beautiful.  Look at how many truly hideous men have great careers.

I’m not going to be that person who proudly claims that this woman who isn’t traditionally attractive is “so hot!” or whatever because she’s not and she knows she isn’t.

There are a lot of players, past and present, that side with their checks over what is right and fair. In the NFL dignity has a price tag. For some, not all. Ray Lewis...Jerry Rice and the like....

The fault does not lie solely at the feet of the 53 percent of white women who voted for Trump. It belongs to people who are cool with a pussy-grabbing, dim-witted, racist buffoon until he threatens the peace, safety and prosperity of people who look like them. It belongs to the people who are apathetic about…

I could rant about misues of “ironic” all day but my blood pressure can’t handle it.

“I’m not a feminist because you think I don’t want equal status with me.” Are you drunk?

Because you think women should participate in systems that drag them down? Why state your point in such a round-about, opaque, obscure manner? Why not just say, “I am not a feminist because I don’t want women to achieve equal status with men.” Or, despite you protestations to the contrary, do you just enjoy long,…
