If that didn’t issue from an AOL account I’ll eat my hat.

OMG your additions have me dead rn

I also think being woke also incorporates intersectional feminism/gender/LGBTQ/ableism/nationality/etc. concerns as well, although for me, race is at the top of that mountain. I’m at #4,on a good day, because ribs and I don’t wear my hair natural, but I ain’t no damn pothead -_-

The newly woke folk are the most annoying.

It’s important to remember that the wokeness scale is a full circle.

The people who leave comments on The Root’s Facebook page saying, “Y’all know they’re owned by whites. They’re operatives of ‘the man,’” as they use a Facebook account owned by a white man.

I don’t call myself woke because I know there are things I don’t know and that any time you try to label yourself someone’s going to come along and try to make your best efforts look like shit.

Identifying Call: “White people did what?

Man, wait until your kids go in on Bodak Yellow and Black Ink Crew

Credit for what? Should I also give Em credit for standing on the edge of a pier and throwing a football into an ocean? Em is a made man in music. Em has already exceeded his financial growth potential in music. It’s easy to speak truth to power when you are already a powerful figure. I have been inundated with people…

Ugh I miss Greg so much. “It was a Sh*tshow” made me laugh/sob because it so perfectly described a former relationship. 

How’s your contraceptive coverage today?

So my mom wasn’t the only mom who would tell me to take a nap if I was not in a good mood, i.e., cranky. (A lot of adults need to learn this.) She believes that naps and drinking water will cure anything. She just might be right.

My accountant has a day bed in his office and regularly takes naps on it during tax season. Has a little “Do not disturb” sign and everything. There are two “quiet rooms” in the office (he owns the practice, there are about a dozen people who work for him) that are used primarily for naps. Their hours are grueling…

I have been looking for this glorious social media gaffe to show up on Jezebel today because it has consumed my life. So. This happened to NPR. Someone meant to post something to his personal page, but he posted it to the NPR page. The problem is that this happened yesterday, and it’s been such a shitshow of a couple…

Nothing would cap off your Paris vacay like sitting outside a posh cafe, eating some fine cheese, and having the pigeon next to the table suddenly have it’s stomach ripped open by some uncouth avian.

I walked past a pigeon head one time and thought it was strange until I realized that the peregrine falcons that are in Minneapolis had their nests up above where I walked every day. My friend didn’t even believe me when I told her.

GMG was recently guilty of this when The Root decided to publish their “White Tears Bingo” article that mocked white people for the things that they get up in arms about. The first three bits, some trivial things. Then number 4? Scout.

Me too. He seems like such a genuinely good, kind guy - hardworking (what’s that about Puerto Ricans being lazy? He won an Emmy, three Tonys, two Grammys, a Pulitzer, and a motherfucking MacArthur Fellowship, also known as the Genius Grant - that doesn’t happen for lazy people), humble, so appreciative of all his…
