i have a theory that the smartest/deepest/most insightful people absolutely love reality tv.

[Globethotter 🌍 @BrianMcLight]

Promoting her work.
Not addressing a negative thing.
Controlling the narrative.
Looking stunning.

This is straight out of the Mathew Knowles Management playbook. Flawlessly executed. 10/10, no notes.

[Mari Copeny @LittleMissFlint]

Hey @NICKIMINAJ and @theestallion I have an idea! Let me introduce myself. I’m Mari and I’m a 16 year old from Flint, MI. I have been working half of my life to get clean water not just to Flint but to hundreds of other communities dealing with clean water crisis.

Lake Street Dive, "I can change"

On the lyric "heart," a chromatic chord (E7) plays. This chord "wants" to resolve to A minor, but instead resolves deceptively to F Major as the chorus begins.

D'Angelo, "Untitled (How does it feel)"

The drums aren't perfectly quantized, meaning they're not exactly on beat. The result, however, is a groove that sounds perfect.

Actually nvm this is the face choir conductors make when a section is flat and they’re trying to use their eyebrows to will you to sing in tune

[National Conservative @NatCon2022]

Ireland's immigrant prime Minister goes on anti-White tirade.

Demands race based government hiring because "very White" institutions "need to change." Says Irish children need "Black & Brown" school teachers and principals.

Ireland is 94%+ White.

16 incarcerated individuals recently graduated from the Northwestern University Prison Education Program — marking the FIRST time a top-ranked U.S. university awarded degrees to students in prison! Incarceration and setbacks didn’t stop them from pursuing their dreams!

A billboard in Times Square, online adverts, two film trailers, two Instagram posts WITH captions, official film collectibles, a branded train…the Beyhive has not seen promo like this since 2011.

Melissa Barrera’s post on social media after being dropped from ‘Scream’ for denouncing the genocide in Gaza:

“At the end of the day, I'd rather be excluded for who I include, than be included for who I exclude.”

@emandreaaa My students have been asking for one if it still hasn’t been given away!

So, I spoke to people getting food at a food bank and here are some things I learned from those in need:
1. Everyone donates Kraft Mac and Cheese in the box. They can rarely use it because it needs milk and butter which is hard to get from regular food banks.
2. Boxed milk is a treasure, as kids need it for cereal which they also get a lot of.
3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.
4. They cannot eat all the awesome canned veggies and soup unless you put a can opener in too or buy pop tops.
5. Oil is a luxury but needed for Rice a-Roni which they also get a lot of.
6. Spices or salt and pepper would be a real Christmas gift.
7. Tea bags and coffee make them feel like you care.
8. Sugar and flour are treats.
9. They fawn over fresh produce donated by farmers and grocery stores.
10. Seeds are cool in Spring and Summer because growing can be easy for some.
11. They rarely get fresh meat.
12. Tuna and crackers make a good lunch.
13. Hamburger Helper goes nowhere without ground beef.
14. They get lots of peanut butter and jelly but usually not sandwich bread.
15. Butter or margarine is nice too.
16. Eggs are a real commodity.
17. Cake mix and frosting makes it possible to make a child’s birthday cake.
18. Dishwashing detergent is very expensive and is always appreciated.
19. Feminine hygiene products are a luxury and women will cry over that.
20. Everyone loves Stove Top Stuffing.

In all the years I have donated food at the Holidays, I bought what I thought they wanted, but have never asked. I am glad I did. If you are helping a Family this Christmas, maybe this can help you tailor it more. It does for me!
