Most celebs aren’t smart or moral ppl, & many disgraced the Black community long ago by what they promoted for a coin. I’m questioning the mental of anyone who expected drug addicted rappers w/ SA cases to be modern day civil rights activists. They can’t be sellouts without integrity to begin with.

“Missing You” is the worst short series I’ve ever seen on or off Netflix. Harlan Coben loves a plot twist, but he’s really starting to overdo it with the mysteries inside the mysteries. And coming from me, that’s really saying something.

This is so sad. We have to be honest about male violence, even when they start trying to identify as women, because they also think it’s justifiable to attack women & girl teens/children. Completely out of control & mentally unhinged.

There are levels to fandom. Actual participation increases the love for it.
Can you still be a fan of a game, if you've only watched it, and never played it yourself?

Absolutely terrifying literacy statistics.
Global: 86.3% literate
Developed nations: 96%+
U.S.: 79% - 21% of adults are illiterate, and 54% read below a 6th grade level. 20% read below a 5th grade level.
Add this into the “how did we get here politically?” calculus.
