Dolly Parton is the perfect case study of someone who embraces their own culture and is proud of their heritage but values other cultures/viewpoints and routinely pitches in to help. I dig unproblematic icons....

There are millions of kids now adults smiling at this very moment. Well deserved, Science Guy. Well deserved.

What confounds today's sales-obsessed rap stan is Megan Thee Stallion moves like a '90s artist. They don't understand how someone who has never sold 100,00 her 1st week can headline a sold out arena tour, be flooded with endorsements and move like a A-list artist....

Black folks are hilariously real. Forget Governor Whitmer. Detroit like, "Nah, you Big Gretch." That's how she will be known for the rest of her life...lol.

Michigan, Big Gretch is fighting for you, and that’s why I’m working so hard to elect @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz.

All I gotta say is Prince co-signed Kendrick when he was alive. Dude was stubbornly stingy when it came to the artists he boosted. Prince knew.

Tina Turner picked cotton as a young girl. She survived being abandoned by her mother and father; racist Jim Crow laws; an horrific, abusive marriage to partner Ike Turner; and a music industry all too eager to bury her. Tina didn't just survive it all. She SOARED. GIANT.

Tyrion played the smart game. Daenerys played her own game. Jon Snow hated the game. Sansa played the long game. Arya thought the game was meaningless. Greyworm doesn't play-play games. Bran has all the cheat codes to the game. Drogon: "F*ck y'all game..." #GameOfThrones

The Pell Grant move (canceling 20K in student loan for those making less than $125,000) is especially targeting Black folks. It doesn't spell it out in the early announcements, but it's clear as day. Anyone who went to an HBCU knows the Pell Grant struggle. This is HUGE.

Finally saw the full clip. I see why some folks were angry watching the truncated version. Made it look like Harris dismissed them from the jump. Watching the unedited version; clear that was not the case. In fact she was pretty patient. And she met with the same group earlier.

Kamala Harris acknowledged the protestors’ right to speak out twice. If they have a right to speak then surely she has a right to respond. Right? Right. She’s on a mission to save this country and absolutely nothing is going to deter her from that task. It’s that simple.

If you are a certain age and are part of the Black Twitter contingent you are not at all shocked that Black folk here and across the pond had respect for this woman. Diana cut through all the monarchy talk. This is what WE saw....

The fans who came of age during the streaming era measured their faves by pop success. Rap crossover Hot 100 hits. Megan is a rapping ass rapper from the South. She's more Pimp C than pop-rap girlie. And yet she still gets superstar treatment. That maddens a lot of folks...lol.

Obama was a litmus test. As easy going as a President we've ever had. When a racist white lunatic slaughtered those Black people in a Charleston church Obama didn't blame the GOP. He spoke about unity. Kirk is shot by a white kid and YOU send bomb threats to HBCUs. F y'all.

Because Biden didn't put his name on the check like a cartoon villain and these dudes are goofy and don't vote.
