She’s implying that hip hip ALWAYS had a place for light hearted made up aas nonsensical (at times) lyrics. Cuz wtf is rappers Delight even about? Exactly. It didn’t don’t and won’t matter cuz it’s just a timeless BOP.
But you knew that…
@JillianMHurley
when I taught my Human development course I ALWAYS ALWAYS made sure students knew about the issues that come with having a child later in life (that everyone loves to shove down our throats), BUT ALSO TOO SOON.
Now I find this incredibly interesting because after years
We could effectively eradicate transphobia by slightly altering how we teach 'pronouns' in Kindergarten and 1st grade... Isn't that wild?

@jnthnwll
I JUST CACKLED SO LOUD
Even tho you typed it out, I just had to get it for myself
I’m beginning to suspect Black people who refer to themselves as ‘African American’ are doing so because they do not want to be seen as ‘Black’. Cuz his wife? Oh she white. So why HE not Black?
@bethcteach
@quintabrunson
Thank you; that's one thing that kinda got on my nerves about 2020 and all the TV episodes
Where are those showrunners? Like, y'all made TV episodes ok but
Students tell me they wish that they’d been taught abt histories of inequality in the US before college. They often say they feel like they’ve been lied to, well, bc they have. They don’t *want* to learn racist mythology—they want to understand the world as it actually exists.
@TchKimPossible
They are all terms (I used that word intentionally) Black educators researchers had to create because we can't say "teach our children with the same dignity and respect that you teach your own."
I'm worried as this list grows, so will our focus away from that underlying theme.
@RdotSpoon
@bkjwordplay
It is so odd we all watched the documentary yet everyone went on still making content AND RAP PUNCHLINES about HER ABUSE
And I mean STILL! 😓
@halla_dottir
@msolurin
I don't think that's the point
They had no right to say no, like, we have this weird mentality that y'all hear someone did something that warranted jail and folk think they shouldn't have ANY freedoms.
@jnkloona
@zaccrain
I'm so glad this is being called out; if they really cared they use this to take dig into our justice system
But not for entertainment, but to really hold folk accountable. Cold case files shouldn't be a norm???
@scmaestra
@triciaebarvia
I notice a majority are WW. I wonder what their motives are for declaring schools are essential. I wonder how many of their children are ACTUALLY in Oak school district. I wonder if maybe the women who WORK for them can't come in because THEIR kids are in Oak SD. C'mon Shannon!
@JillianMHurley
teaching this course never ONCE did the book cite examples of what happens to mothers who conceive to early. Not like this. The examples usually centered around not being prepared financially and emotionally
@queend236
Reminds of the time I had a woman call me on account of her husband....
I was an instructional coach, he's the science lab teacher. I called his number to let him know the lizard I was supposed to keep alive over the summer, died 💀
@cryst6l
I think it did click and that’s why she deleted—
She’s a woman in her 20s. That’s all I see. And she ain’t got enough OGs telling her to choose herself 😓
@Dustin_Cone
@FilmUpdates
Came in here to say this— would never happen
You realize this is an allegory for Anna Wintour and Vogue right? The only appropriate sequel is her finding a true heir by CHOICE cuz anything other than is a dream, and even then, wake up and apologize.
@miiriya1
Honestly? This is because guys would rather find some girl do it FOR FREE then do their due diligence and go to a shop 😅🙃😂 AND PAY
Sorry. No sympathy from me. It's 2022 going on 3.
@LibyaLiberty
@tressiemcphd
LISTEN that teacher SCRAMBLED but I give their response a solid 8.5/9 😂
It would've been a 10 because she should've known enough of your daughter's identity to see why that would be important/interesting to her.
@TchKimPossible
my research in 2018 spoke to culturally responsive pedagogy because that's the term that was safe for us to use at the time. LOL Lord knows I want to just say "STOP TEACHING BLACK/BROWN/INDIGENOUS KIDS IF YOU ARE RACIST"
@DrJasonJohnson
maaaaaaan cuz you and I know everybody just tryna be "heard".... clickbait really at an all time high and then they'll hide behind the "we're just trying to start a dialogue". SO GLAD YOU CALLED THIS OUT!!!!!!!
@crissles
In my dystopian novel ppl are gifted the ability to procreate once they’ve named, acknowledged, and healed from childhood and adolescent stage trauma.
@soledadobrien
@DrJasonJohnson
This is extremely mid.... I mean it's an apology. But you made it seem like he was really going to task and he basically said "aight I got y'all next time"
Meanwhile they reshot Cats.

Again, what does that have to do with ANY of her post or the song for that matter
Did Kendrick mention the boy? Did Drake ?

Tbh they right-- gotta stop expecting ppl to understand yes the criminal justice system but also nigga you did that shit. And to your own damn ppl...
But I'm agreement with you. I've def revisited the phrase and I'm a Thugger fan. Us two can revisit 😂👍🏿
@IYSKold
@adamsokatart
It's wild cuz.... folk really ignore everything else she does.
And I do mean everything. This isn't all she does. Not even close.
@NotNikyatu
@ericabuddington
most of the "cool" things to do on twitter are not good for the collective good. Like, at all.
and the generation up under us ain't catching the nuance and just doing shit at face value.
@GuptonTeaches
I jokingly commented on a student laying down in her room and she told me it’s hard to find quiet in her house 🤦🏿♀️
So now I’m going to create a “everybody lay down and be comfortable“ day. Cuz I ducked up on that one
@SeanSeanWonton

@lingerie_addict
They literally said "if you want a $5 dress"
Those were not even possible until recently so there was a long period of time where ppl understood you needed to spend more for things
Me personally I just shop clearance sales
@BienSur_JeTaime
If they weren’t celebrities and you heard this many niggas hating on a fine bitch what would we all be thinking 😂😂😂
Same applies here tbh.
@WalleLawal
The monologues in Nollywood are so much more powerful because of this… which I’ve always suspected. Nigerians really bring out the FULL potential of the English language 😂
My sis in KOB would literally give me chills during her scenes. She’s who came in mind when I read this
@citruscacti
@BlackNexus5
@queend236
Oh this nigga (no, wasn't Black) was sleeping with at least two different teachers.... In addition to his wife.... In the same district. Whew.
and I do mean SLIGHTLY.
Instead of saying boys go by he and girls go by she.. we could just... like... not say that. People = he, she, they. How do you know? Wait until they tell you! Use 'they' for everybody.
@AdmiralMyoko
@jmurfish
Just say ya'll are mad she's not unrealistically shaped and white. Please. Just say that. Say "we don't like her cuz she's Black. Then she's fat. But mainly she's Black"

@SIfill_
Look, 80 is TOO OLD TO BE IN CHARGE OF THINGS.
POINT BLANK TF PERIOD. Do something else, take a back ground role where you are consulting.
And I will feel that at when I'm 80s cuz why would I even want to have that responsibility of navigating what multiple groups need
@DrJasonJohnson
reminds of me a IG homie I saw share a DEBUT PODCAST EPISODE about the Alpha male debate. THAT'S what they coming out the gate with. I challenged and the response was "we start with low hanging fruit and then build as we go along" NO. STOP. JUST FIND A JOB.
