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 …

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 …

Ben Carson is to Smart as Slavery is to Immigration

One day. I just want ONE DAMB DAY where the crew of craprags in the Trump Administration don’t say or do something that is imbecilic. ONE DAY IS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK WHERE WE DON’T NEED TO DRAG THEM FROM HERE TO KINGDOM COME. Today is Ben Carson’s turn …

We, The Nigerians, Do Not Accept Rachel Dolezal’s New Name

This is the 4th time I am writing about Rachel Dolezal the Undercover Sista on this site. And each time, I want to track her down and slap her in the face with a stack of paper printed with my words in 50 point font. Rachel Dolezal is the person …

ECLIPSED was Amazing and Now There’s A Documentary Going Behind the Curtains

The first time I met Danai Gurira was in 2014. We were both at the ONE Campaign’s AYA Summit, and it was there that I got to see how incredible she is. People know her mostly as Michonne from The Walking Dead, but she is also a gifted orator and …
