If Netflix, Amazon, and every other streaming service can make an absolute fortune by constantly cancelling shows you love, I don't want to ever hear "I don't read unfinished series" ever again.

I'm watching this Bobby Brown interview on Shawn Stockman's podcast and Bob just said something I never knew. He said to this day New Edition has never toured overseas. That's actually pretty mind blowing. I feel like they should do it while they still can.

It actually doesn’t when you consider that you do not know any other persons circumstances. If they can afford to boycott one place, good for them. It is appreciated.

Until options are fully available for EVERYONE in EVERY SETTING IMAGINABLE - y’all don’t get to say this to ppl who are trying

Right, so what I saw was not criticism that the person having the heart attack didn't receive aid, but that the proctor kept the exam going as normal WHILE A PERSON HAD A HEART ATTACK AND THEN HAD PARAMEDICS AND WHATNOT TRYING TO PROVIDE AID. Not time stop. No break. No moment to regroup.

My sister was playing a very beautiful piece of music last night on her phone and I asked her what it was.

It turned out to be, no joke, the national anthem of Nepal

This week is the battle royale of music opinions: Covers vs Originals. Now, let's all admit up front that opinions are usually heavily subjective and based on factors including age/era... but let's argue anyway :).

What cover (or covers) do you insist tops the original? (Post both!)

I was arguing with people like "I WAS HERE FROM THE INITIAL TWEET HOW YOU GONNA TELL ME" and when I would show them the screen shots of Maya's tweet and how it started they'd be like "Nah it had to be something else." NOPE, that was it!

Saw a bumper sticker for Maine Public Radio with the NPR logo redone as “N P Ah” and I’ve gotta give it to you, Maine, that’s pretty good.

His followers, his alt accounts, and him from his main account - in this woman's replies constantly for WEEKS non stop (and him for years after), she couldn't block fast enough. They doxxed her, her parents, their place of business, she was literally scared for her family's safety.

So now his story is that Maya threw out baseless allegations and lies against him to give fodder to the "anti-Black" accounts that needed something to use against him. This is a LIE. She posted links, didn't just say sh*t unsupported, to illustrate a pattern.

So for folks who weren't there, here's what happened with Talib:

1. A Black women, Maya, made a comment about rappers (PLURAL, I don't even think he was named) patterns of having light skin wives in I think a larger convo about colorism. It was an observation, not an insult.

Woman speaks on rappers having light skinned and biracial wives (or one or the other, can’t remember)

Talib, though not mentioned, was offended because his estranged wife was light skinned.

Everyone found out why she was estranged (he cheated & got someone else pregnant)

Harassment ensues.

You couldn’t turn on basic cable without a deluge of Girls Gone Wild commercials.

A quick scan of women’s music from the 90s would be revelatory. TLC’s music was a counternarrative. Lilith Fair existed for a reason. What was Riot Grrl was rioting against? Queen Latifah gave us a whole anthem.

Why in the fuck am I paying over $1,600 for my son to be able to play in the high school marching band?! Oh yeah, cause the GOP has continued to slash public education funding at every opportunity, at every level, that they can.

Sometimes I think of how only two generations of us were even allowed to attend these settler colonial ass universities in tiny, awkward handfuls, and how even that was too much

I had heard the phrase “history repeats itself” from a young age but somehow I always thought that would look like “80s fashion coming back” and not “hungry children with measles watch an autocrat drain their nation’s coffers to build a big tacky palace”
