Love seeing all the Chris Pratt mentions, and I totally agree. I'd actually go see that Mercy movie if literally anyone else was in it.
Well, anyone except this racist imbecile.

In South Florida we used to call undesirable/unkempt women "foot draggers" or "dirty foots" back in the 90s. Someone even had a song about it, so it was a pretty popular term locally.
TRUE CONFESSIONS
My daughter (an adult) drags her sandaled feet through the house like she is four years old.
How did she forget how to walk by lifting her feet?
Am I the only person who can't stand to hear people who wear slippers or sandals drag their feet when they walk?
It's just me, huh?

Crazy as this sounds...Captain America: Civil War is my favorite MCU movie - and I will never watch it again. I felt Tony's perspective at the end way too much.
What's a movie you really enjoyed, but would never watch again?

I only use the mute button within the Blacksky tab. First dumb thing I see, that person is muted. There is enough traffic on Blacksky that they won't be missed.
I wanna be petty today. 😌
Do yall use the mute button much and if so what criteria falls under this person needs to be muted for you?

Depends on the person asking, how they ask, and my mood. Black people get much more polite responses: I may even try to help them. Others get anything from a glare to a response that lets them know not to ask that question to anyone of color without a nametag.

I'm actually rooting for Kial over Carlton at this point. Carlton just moves in a way that's half goofy and half slimy. #BeyondTheGates

Some of the blame for this Eagles offense has to go to #1 at some point.

I'm at my cousin's wedding reception and they just did a church roll call - as in "if you attend (church name here), please stand". My family is so black.
