Starbucks’ Unicorn Frappuccino is a Weapon of Mass Diabetes
Honestly, folks do not want us to have nice things, like long lives where we don’t struggle with the gout or an extreme case of “the sugars.” Folks like Starbucks, who just released a new drink called the Unicorn Frappuccino. It’s a limited edition offering, available nationwide until April 23. This …
Jack and His Colonialist Beanstalk
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a piece about how Goldilocks was Criming While White. It got me thinking about how some of the fairytales we’ve heard countless times really offer horrible lessons about their protagonists. Many of them were terrible people but somehow, they got to live happily …
Whose Sneaker Heel Mules Are These?
In case you ever dreamed of owning sneaker heel mules that don’t make any sense, there are now some Pumas that will make your dream come true. I present to you, the most confusing shoes I’ve seen in at least a year. #WhyItHappenFathaGawd #BurnEmBoaz #EndThemEmmanuel. Anywho, I posted them on …
Because I am Obsessed with “Get Out”
This post is long overdue because I first saw Jordan Peele’s new film Get Out over a month ago. Yes, I said “first” because I did something I usually don’t: I went to the theater again to see a movie. TWICE in one month. That is how obsessed I am …
The Pairing Of Our Nightmares: Ann Coulter and Jimmy Walker
A recent AOL story is alleging that walking horcrux Ann Coulter is dating former ‘Good Times’ star and perfect prototype for potential unrealized Jimmie Walker. While some people are saying that this is old news, it was new information to me. I needed time to process it. And I don’t know who I’m more …
Dear Pepsi, That Ad was a Gold in the Fail Olympics
I gotta say that sometimes, I’m impressed by how people fail so spectacularly. Pepsi is the latest inductee into the FAIL Hall of Fame. I don’t think we’ve fully forgiven them since they set Michael Jackson’s hair on fire back in 1984. We just knew they didn’t curl allaway over. …
Goldilocks was Criming While White
A lot of the stories we’ve heard since we were little are really insidious once you pick them apart and realize what was actually happening. As an adult, analyzing childhood lore can piss you off when you realize that the character you were supposed to love was actually a fuckboy. Or …
A Seat at Luvvie’s Table was Powered by Noir Pixie Dust
My resistance coping tactic is to surround myself with Black women. One thing that was re-affirmed to me after November 8 is that if I can’t count on anyone else, I can ALWAYS count on Black women. So since then, I’ve enveloped myself in a blanket woven by the love of sisters. …
Whose Monopoly Man Come to Life is This? Oh. Roger Stone Jr.
Below is Roger Stone Jr., an advisor to Tang Tyrant and his troop of trifling twatwaffles that he considers an administration. Come to find out, he ain’t shit. As in, he’s a sexist and racist walking cartoon villain. And I’m pretty sure this man owns slaves. Not owned but OWNS. As in, …
About Why I Proudly #RocktheRedPump!
Red is a power color. It’s what they use for signs they don’t want you to ignore, because it grabs your attention. Red is also the color of AIDS ribbons. Shoes? Well, they can be fierce, and it’s hard for me to ignore them when they are. When I was …
