“Michael Brown Sr., dressed in an open-collar tan shirt and admitting fatigue, spoke for barely a minute, but the crowd hung on each word.”
There is a video game now available by the name of I Am Bread, and in it players can control a slice of bread that wishes to be toasted.
“Finding whatever you need to toast yourself isn’t that hard—just taking a look around each level and spotting electric appliances is usually enough, though there is an amusing puzzle element involved to turning on most of them. However, the game’s shoddy camerawork makes it difficult to look at anything that isn’t either right beside your bread or directly in front of you. If you somehow manage to climb into a cabinet or enclosed area, the camera immediately locks onto the bread and shakes if you try to spin it out of that space, reducing your visibility considerably.”
Play at your own risk. If you manage to toast the broad, please send me a screenshot and let me know if it made you want toast after IRL.
“Marquis’ desire to travel began to coalesce around the question of whether she could survive by herself in nature. First, she decided to ride a horse across Turkey. On that trip, she ate apricots off trees and slept with her head on her saddle. Muslim women bathed her in warm goat’s milk.”
mm that’s cool and all, touch trees all you want, but like…why not just bathe yourself though
AUNTIE FEE WAS ON THE STEVE HARVEY SHOW AND AWESOMELY LUVVIE WAS HERE FOR IT:
But I didn’t start cackling til she got mad that she had to make the bread on the show herself. “This shit shoulda been done” and she pointed to her brother June, whose fault it was, apparently. Because why should they bring her to cook on the show? What took me OUT was “I don intercoursed it up.” It took her saying it 3 times for STEE to even get it.
Auntie Fee just blessed me. Why have I not been using this phrase my whole life? For the times when you can’t say “fuck” outright like when the FCC is watching, why not use “intercourse.” This woman is a genius. I love her.
There is, apparently, a magazine called “The Gentlewoman” (POINT ONE) and they recently interviewed Aminatou Sou about her perfect life (POINT TWO):
P: That’s a fairly regular topic, let’s be honest.
A: Yeah, and relationships. Romantic relationships get a lot of ink, but nobody really talks about how much romance there is in being a friend.
P: I really enjoyed the episode about friends who return from the past – how to manage their expectations when they turn inappropriately needy.
A: What’s surprising is that our inbox mailbag is full of really sad break-up stories. It just goes to show that there hasn’t been a place to talk about this stuff, right? If you break up with your boyfriend, there’s a whole pop cultural narrative about how that will go. But what if you break up with your best friend, or they move away, have a baby or start dating somebody you don’t like?
Obligatory aside to point out that of course you don’t have to stop being friends with someone just because they had a baby; probably you and your friends are all deeply evolved people who love one another’s babies equally. Congratulations, how wonderful. Let’s talk about our worst friend breakups instead. Get RAW.
A VINEGAR PIE LOOKS GOOD AS HECK AND I WANT ONE, SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE THIS AND REPORT BACK TO ME ON WHETHER OR NOT IT’S GOOD AS AFOREMENTIONED HECK OR NAH
What D’Angelo Has Been Up To: A Timeline
The ongoing investigation of the murder — and its ensuing coverup — of Lennon Lacy:
Lennon’s body was found Aug. 29 hanging from a swing set from a dog leash and a belt. A medical examiner’s report ruled the death a suicide. Lennon’s family and friends immediately rejected the report, saying that the high school football player did not kill himself and was not depressed; in fact, the family claims, he was excited about an upcoming game.
“Someone killed him ’cause he was dating an older white woman,'” Justin Jones, 17, a friend of Lennon, told the Daily News.
Since Lennon’s death, the Daily News reports, the girlfriend, Michelle Brimhall, has “gone into hiding.”
On Friday the FBI—after prompting from Lennon’s family and the NAACP—launched an investigation into Lennon’s death. Local police told the Daily News that they are “still investigating Lacy’s death despite the coroner ruling it a suicide,” and it is unclear whether local authorities ever questioned Brimhall before “she went into hiding,” the Daily News reports.
“It is implausible for Lennon to have been able to act alone in hanging himself,” Dr. Christena Roberts, an independent pathologist hired by Lennon’s family, found.
