#AQuietPlace
: Day One is chock full of quiet, contemplative moments exploring human compassion, resiliency, and spirit in addition to its sci-to horror thrills. Lupita Nyongo and Joseph Quinn display great chemistry.
Jimmy Kimmel had a segment one time where he had celebrities read the last text convos they had with their mothers and it struck me that every black celebrity's convo was their mom asking them to buy them something while the white celebrities' mothers were just checking in.
Seeing the “single motherhood is better than marriage” thread then seeing the “Please mentor our boys, black men!” thread back to back is so fucking hilarious and encapsulates the entire issue, doesn’t it?
Ahh, so they let those rednecks with ARs shut down state legislatures and the cops kept their composure, but when the police brutality protestors come out, the police find use of force again

’s Caitlin Clark on her name being weaponized in non-sports topics:
“It’s not something I can control. … And to be honest, I don’t see a lot of it.”
“People can talk about what they want to talk about. … I’m just here to play basketball.”

This is what I find so frustrating about CC. Yes, she's amazingly talented & fun to watch. No question. But when presented an opportunity to really speak on the main issues in the W, maybe reach back, compliment others, & quell some of these crazy notions she just...doesn't.
The late Kevin Samuels said that the reason why height has become such an important component in attraction for modern women is because as they have become more and more overweight, they need extreme height differentials to find a man that makes them feel small.
*looks at her*
This tweet is the perfect encapsulation of what bullshit the "troops!" argument is. Because Tillman's family is famously 100% against his memory being used this way. But the people that claim to "support the troops" don't give a shit what actual troops want.
This Tentacion debate touches upon a larger, more fascinating issue; progressives no longer believe in the redeemability of criminals. It used to just be conservatives that believed criminality renders you bad for life but now the left does too. Not making a judgement just notice
Carlee is what happens when you tell an entire demographic they are above reproach/correction and are infallible. As you see with people STILL defending that story today and saying they're with her even if she's lying.
A group of white men sitting around insulting black women and you STILL found a way to include a dig at black men in there. How does this conversation prove black men's "social insecurities?" We aren't even part of the conversation!
Terry Crews wasn't threatening to slap DL, he was making the point that DL obviously knows that not every instance of disrespect should be met with physical force. Or else he'd want Terry to slap him as a result of the convo they were having.
Rockets fans. I say this with love. Please dont pull that "wait until we see them next postseason" shit again. CP3 is 56 with 72 years of miles on him. He's gonna be Haywood Workman next postseason. It's over.
Why is the trauma of a child hearing and witnessing his mother having sex with multiple men funny? You don’t think that’s a serious issue that would have a substantial effect on a child?
Dawg. How one can not be bothered by their name being used to justify racism, bigotry, misogyny, xenophobia, homophobia & the intersectionalities of them all is nuts. We all see the sh*t. We all have a platform. We all have a voice & they all hold weight. Silence is a luxury.
Somebody really made a video pretending to be Lauren London claiming Nipsey was killed by the government. Maybe social media isn't a good thing to have anymore....
Natalie Portman mailed in her last performance for Marvel then quit the MCU because they reneged on their promise to hire a female director. That quip is nothing to her.
Everyone's complaining about how long Rihanna's taking to release new music, y'all youngins don't realize, in the 90s before 2Pac and DMX came along, this is how long we waited for everybody's new albums to drop.
There’s something eerie whenever I see pics of black folks in the early 80s pre-crack. Especially big cities like NY and LA. Like damn, they don’t even know what’s coming. And then I wonder how everybody pictured made out post-epidemic.
Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn (1983). A summer block party on Madison Ave btwn Tompkins Ave & Throop Ave. Photographed by Robert Madden of National Geographic.
lol this is normal in most non-American cultures, especially certain Asian and Latino ones. Any niggas considering that passport bro shit might wanna learn about this lol. Individualism is an American thing, the rest of the world is multigenerational.
Only black men because they're raised in a matriarchy where women lead. All other men know if a woman likes you, she's gonna start liking whatever YOU like.
Every single Lil is a Wayne clone. The colored hair, the style of clothing, the drug use. That's all Wayne. He's the most influential of his generation by far.
I don't think there's a single rapper whose fingerprints are all over the genre today to the degree that Wayne's are. And it wasnt necessarily over night. It's like we looked up around 2015 or so and all these rappers who started rapping bc of 06 Weezy were dominating the sound
Remember when we found out that Malcolm X's killer had been alive and chillin in Newark for decades and all of Newark's black Muslim community knew about it?
If this doesn't tell you what "patriotic American" means.

@DragonflyJonez
's tweet from yesterday about people that love the flag.
Y'all keep blaming white people for "taking black culture" (see the word woke), but this is actually how they get it. Black progressives teach them this stuff.
This subway choke out death is the latest example of how progressives don’t think their positions through. You want to legalize crime but also don’t want people to react to it. Not realistic. If the law isn’t going to protect people, they’re going to protect themselves.
Beyoncé hopped on the remix to Savage and the ladies can’t even hit the club to go wild to it. My thoughts are with you all during these difficult times.
Again, a conversation needs to be had on how much the current wave of feminism infantilizes women. I'm a grown ass adult, it doesn't matter how many times someone asks me for sex, if I don't want to it's not happening. Children break down under simple pressures, you're an adult.
Again, digging up old tweets when people reach success isn't about social justice, it's miserable people looking to bring others down to their misery. Shit is corny and wrong. Every time. It's about that, not just Kevin Hart.
I apologize for the tweets that have come to light tonight from when I was 14 and 15. I used a poor choice of word that doesn’t reflect who I am or what I believe. I did not intend to single out any individual or group.

@chrissyteigen
She asked her followers the most expensive item they'd ever bought that sucked. Common sense tells you that "most expensive" is going to be relative based on each individual's income and for Chrissy specifically, it's probably going to be higher than yours. That's not offensive.
Anything for engagement. Here is the preliminary exit polling which shows black men voted for her at 84%, like the last time she ran and like they normally vote for all democrats.
He's asking to spend time with you. He had errands to run and just wanted you to keep him company while he was out. It was a caring gesture but you're too greedy to recognize it.
@AsiaChloeBrown
I don't why people are trying to tell you it makes more sense "contextually" (whatever the hell that means). It's worse when you watch the entire episode, she literally stalks the couple for the whole party following them around lol
Go ahead and kufi me down but twitter rolling out a voice tweet feature while our entire nation is protesting and facial recognition is hit or miss bc a lot of folks are masked up got my eyes laser beaming
Nah, let's say it plainly: They want a man who has a job that when they say what it is during brunch/girls night when asked "So what does he do?", their friends won't respond "...oh..."
Doesn't matter that an electrician may make more than a middle manager. It's the OPTICS.
We have to have a nuanced discussion about jobs and mates and compatibility. I think blue collar jobs are great ways to make a very good living. However, what the woman is looking for is someone who is successful but also travels in the same professional/personal circles.
What's funny about Kevin Samuels is people always love his perspective when he breaks down why the opposite sex is delusional in love, but when he talks about the problems with THEIR sex then he's a bad guy who doesn't know what he's talking about lol
This Gorilla Glue Girl situation just reinforced for me once more that most of y'all on here are irresponsible morons that think the world owes you everything.
Imagine arguing someone deserves money for being dumb enough to put super glue in their head. Y'all are BUMS.
I mean, the Drake diss track was a cool little first shot. Not like how y'all gassed it. And I guess I'm too old school, it's wild to me to just ignore an MC admitting he has ghostwriters like it's no big deal and sayin he killed somebody on the mic.
