Here's the thing: I have seen the full power of make-up and the right outfit. That shit works wonders, like turning hairy ass men into super models. Case in point:

Is actually...


And with all them damn enzymes and hormones they're putting in the milk these days, unfortunately I can totally see a 14 year using the right makeup, wearing the right outfit, and looking significantly older than she is.

What I DON'T get, is how you spend ANY length of time talking to a 14 year old and NOT realize you were talking to a 14 year old! What the fuck did y'all talk about? Snapchat and school lunches???

And if you didn't talk...well then, nigga that's own damn fault. I hear probation ain't too bad these days.

19 years old is a super dumb horny age but I agree with Royalan. I find it hard to believe your spidey sense wouldn't register at least once when dealing with a 14 year old.

Keep in mind that we are looking at it from our perspective. We're older and have way more life experience vs a 19 year old computer science student who met this girl on an app. I'm definitely stereotyping, but I have a feeling this guy wasn't interacting with a lot of females/probably would be making GAF dating age threads and not listening to advice. And if the girl was saying she was 17 years old the app, she was probably pretending to be older in person too. Now this wouldn't be enough to fool most people, but this guy? Probably.

He's still an idiot, but this isn't like Tyga or something. Plus with the judge throwing out crazy statements, I at least "get" the defense force.
 
I'm done talking about Rachel, and I'm done trying to talk about idiotic black people trying to defend her. If you can't see the fuckery, you are choosing not to, to the detriment of yourself and others.

EA's was a slug to go through. I don't know why every year they spend so much time on Sports games. The majority of people who play them don't even know what E3 is. I'd get crazy looks if I ask the brothas and sistas that hang by the ball court and corner store if they watch E3.

I was surprised at the new Call of Duty footage. That looked nothing like Call of Duty. Cyborgs, electic beams and shit. People running on walls like it's Prince of Persia.

Because Madden and FIFA are the cash kings of the company. You may not care, but year after year people buy the yearly installments and more importantly for EA, spend gobs of money on the Ultimate Team crap. I read about the numbers they are pulling in for that stuff and it is crazy. As far as watching E3, I think it is a very vocal minority who does that. We assume it is everyone since we are on GAF, but most people I know that play games don't watch.


In other news...I am about done with the Rachel story. Whenever a story moves into thinkpiece territory, I am done. She did what she did, she really wanted to be black and pretended to be that. The extreme lengths she went to do this indicates she has some mental issues, but whatever. The situation in the Dominican is much more important, IMO. But that is going to go ignored by most, but let's make sure to spread Rachel memes!!!!

The Black Guy Who Tips damn near went 2 full hours on this fuckery, and broke down a lot of shit. Like how Howard counter sued her and won.

I was gonna post the TWIB podcast... well fuck it, I might as well. There was a special guest who writes for Essence. She grew up in Spokanne(?) Washington so her paths crossed Rachel when she lived there. Spoke on the race conditions in the neighborhood. A lot of insight from a local.

You promote the products that brings in the most money. If Sims were as popular as it was even 3 years ago, it would receive the same amount of love.

And I don't care that he got caught and was punished. But I can't cosign on him being on the predator list for 25 years like he's R Kelly or likes 5 year old girls.

The phasers for the justice system are stuck on 'fuck him as hard as possible'. And it makes a joke out of Megan laws. I'm really not sure if someone is on there due to child porn or having sex with their gf who is 3 years younger or having sex on the beach or pissing in public. The original purpose was to find predators. These guys could have had a lot to drink and a bladder infection and they get stuck in the same room as the guy driving the van handing out candy.

I can sympathize with the unfairness of the sex offenders registry for things like drunken urinating etc. And I definitely ran into a few bullshitters. I had someone on tindr straight up tell me they were 14 after a few exchanges back and forth, and then get mad when I didn't respond.

The way "justice" works needs to be re-examined. Law, justice, etc. are used as profit centers and have the goal of putting people away vs protecting the public. That is a slight, but important distinction. The goal is to put as many people in jail as possible, so common sense gets thrown out the window.

It's sad when ex-prosecutors and judges running for office tout conviction rates, not crime rates in campaigns. Showing that you actually did something for the community besides creating ex-cons should be more important.

One night, the Cavs had a dream. They dreamed that they were walking along a beach with the KING. Across the sky flashed scenes from the playoffs. There was J.R. Smith making shots. Tristan Thompson rebounding misses. Timofey Mozgov scoring career highs. Matthew Dellavedova getting intravenous fluids. For each of those scenes, the Cavs noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to them and the other to the KING.

When the last moment of the last game of their lives flashed before them, the Cavs looked back at the footprints in the sand. They noticed that there were many times along the path of their postseason when there was only one set of footprints. They also noticed that this happened at their very lowest and saddest times. Like when J.R. Smith almost wiped out while riding a hands-free Segway scooter into the arena, and then shot 17 percent from the floor and scored four points. Or when Shump shot 11 percent for the Finals on shots inside 5 feet. Or when Shawn Marion, at the end of a potential Hall of Fame career, couldn’t pry minutes from Mike Miller’s cold, dead hands.

This really bothered the Cavs, and they questioned the KING about it. “KING,” the Cavs lamented, “you said that once we decided to follow you, you’d walk with us all the way. But we have noticed that during the most troublesome times in our postseason, there is only one set of footprints on the beach. We don’t understand why, when we needed you most, you would leave us.”

The KING, exhausted, replied, “My precious, precious children. I love you and I would never leave you! During your times of trial and suffering, when you were committing terrible fouls and missing every shot; when you were dribbling like your hands were made of old toaster ovens and the only other ball handler was J.R. Smith; when James Jones was the best one-dimensional player among you and I had to create every basket as if from whole cloth — all those times when you thought you were alone, and saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you. For six games. Now you all owe me 45 percent of your playoff shares.”

If you were curious about grant land. Lawd.

I feel like Rachel just needed to meet the right black man.
 
Watching Vlad tv, came across this Chanell Heart girl. She is so cute doing this porn all 100% natural, calling out instagram models and shit.

For those of you who still care, The Read Podcast (Hosted by Kid Fury and the homegirl Crissle) released their weekly podcast 2 days early to allow Crissle to go in the fuck in on Rachel Dolezal, and guuurl does she go in, with quite a finisher.

The dragging begins pretty early in the podcast.
Ok this is the best thing I've listened to all year. Omg especially apt talking about brehs throwing themselves on the railroad tracks to defend her for no logical fucking reason and then trying to pretend they are the moral authority. So good. God damn Rachel had students she told they weren't black enough to speak about race issues.

Whew! That was a break down.

Points for him going IN on the tendency of some black men to allow and actually protect non-black women who say and do extremely racist shit because they're hot, or because they acknowledge black men as hyper-virile (which is in itself racist as fuck).

Like, this chick is bonafide racist, but because she's got some panty shots on Instagram you still see nothing BUT black men in her comments.

Good luck. Job searching is probably the roughest exercise I have been through in life. Worse than my divorce.

Watching American Sniper...

I know folks be Anti-Military but this movie really doesn't say "YAY military" to me. Just seems like the typical war is fucked up story not worth protesting over.
 
It seems like people are angry because by Coates saying the Dolezal story is less important, he's discounting people's anger over it. I don't think he is, and I think the main point of that article is that the media is hyping the shit out of her story while burying/avoiding the McKinney pool incident, Kalief Browder, etc. There are also a lot of ashy motherfuckers who are trying to give Dolezal a "pass" while they're also the first ones to shit on black women and ignore how hard they go for us, so the anger from that is compounding it.
