Girl I didn’t have enough people to talk about this with IRL so I had to dump it here hahaa. And please believe I have more :-D

Yes, Peej, the Soulja Boy content I need!! There are so many levels to that interview, and I went through all of em.

he managed to be so wrong and so right simultaneously throughout this interview. impressive.

Girl twin has a twin! Charlie won’t know what to do. 

This makes me want to watch Queens of Comedy again! I vaguely remember Sommore being the standout from that special.

He’s been a soul singer for much of his career. Robin was played on black radio widely when he first started to pop off. His live performances in this era (Evolution of Robin Thicke circa 2006) were full of black women who would sell out his shows. I knew him becoming mainstream would be his downfall. He had a niche

And Beyonce was barely 90s. Destiny Child’s debut album was released in 1998.

Sooo, do they call the cops on EVERYBODY after a certain limit and have them arrested? If so, how haven’t we heard of those cases. If not, why did they choose this guy in particular? Being diligent is one thing; imprisoning someone is quite another.

we don’t deserve twitter 😭

Meant to add as well, but couldn’t edit my post: You’re also contradicting yourself. You started out saying her idealism will alienate her, and now you’re saying people didn’t support Bernie’s idealism enough? Soo...who’s idealism do YOU have a problem with?

You’re assuming the people supporting AOC in this comment thread didn’t also support Bernie in the comment threads, which is a wild assumption.

Well would ya look at that...just like clockwork

Perhaps, but there are dozens of issues. And the ones that make the news are obviously the ones that she contends; the compromises don’t.

You’d be surprised how much pols respond to public shaming actually. I’ve worked with legislators for several years post-law school and have seen it first hand. Working effectively with your colleagues day-to-day doesn’t mutually exclude being a firebrand on particular issues.

The quote is taken out of context. Wendy was the one who framed it that way. Robin merely replied that somebody else said something similar to her before, and she pivoted by saying she’s only prayed that speaking out would help other women dealing with abuse. She wasn’t trying to take credit for anything.

He sympathized with Israelis enforcing an apartheid state and tried to compare them to kids growing up in the hood. He would basically be Republican if not for the fact that he’s not self-loathing. He’s the actual worst.

You mean Jeffries, right? Because that headline is not wrong. This man is...not good. And I say that as someone in his congressional district.

Just here to say you deserve all the stars. For the comments, and the patience.
