If only Johnson had enough aides who couldhiv helped avoid such illicit contact.
Long, long history of that in Hollywood. Huge numbers of actors had to change their names to get famous, both for racist reason (their name was very “ethnic” and Hollywood hates that) or because their name was hard to pronounce. For example, for Jews, you’ve got Marilyn Monroe = Norma Jean Mortensen, Kirk Douglas =…
This is way off base and as an engineer who is obsessed with efficiency, Disney and ABC were definitely in the wrong and deserved to pay up.
Big deal. I found half of a sleeping UAW worker under the 3rd row of my Traverse.
But make sure you don’t stand too close, touch anyone or make your gestures too large.

People: Don’t coddle men. Don’t entertain their mediocrity anymore. Don’t indulge them their obtuse, willfully ignorant questions about ANYTHING they could figure out for themselves with a basic google search. Especially don’t do it on articles regarding sexual assault, where the majority of us has specific trauma and…
Ever notice how history is full of battles where men make their stands in places that are in retrospect, absurd and pointless places to be, and you think “what a stupid place to die?”

Such excellence is how we survive, overcome, and triumph.
I was given Black Like Me to read at university in a class called “race ethnicity and media”. We talked about the book before reading and since we were all good third and fourth year coms students we voiced our criticisms to the prof “why arent we reading black authors? Why a book about race by a white man?” But I…
Too late to ETA previous reply. I did a library search, and no such luck. I couldn’t find an ebook copy. So I’ll have to walk 5 blocks to pick up an actually really real book. Damn...it’s been a while since I had one of those, lol.
Sorry but this is a horseshit opinion. Coke Zero tastes a lot different from Diet Coke, it’s sweeter and has that spicy, slightly citrusy flavor to it like Coca-Cola whereas Diet Coke does not. (The “base formula” of Coke Zero is the original Coke formula whereas the base formula of Diet Coke was and is the New Coke…
