2. "My mom just told me over Duo that it looks like I don't comb my hair!" In response to Reply # 0
I mean granted - it is frizzy as hell, but damn. I comb my hair twice a day in fact. Once a night when I am wrapping it and once in the morning when I am combing the wrap out. She said I'd be better off wearing two ponytails than wearing my hair like this and that wrapping is for people who have relaxers.
lol
Damn

I mean...I do from an image & origination standpoint (it was the90's)...but at the same time...the content of most of their music doesn't really scream "conscious"...

and they were a live act.
But I think it really comes down to the type of fans they attracted. If you went to a Roots show you were going to see backpacks, head wraps, dreads and naturals.

- Going to be interesting seeing what direction he takes the company in... hopefully it’s a good fit. Time to dust off the resume and update my portfolio just in case.
- We are refinancing the house to a 10 year mortgage. Higher mortgage bill but we are saving 40k in interest.
- Kids aren’t going to daycare. It’s going to be a bit stressful for my wife but we can’t take that risk right now. Our daughter turns 5 in September and we were going to try and get her tested so she could start kindergarten this year but covid threw a wrench in that shit.
- My 3 year old refuses to poop on the toilet. She’s in hide and dump mode right now. It’s frustrating but I know you can’t force it.

Interesting.

14. "So if they used the Complex article shitting on him over this" In response to Reply # 11
it would’ve been okay even tho they link to sources on twitter that are right wing?
Ionno man.. I think we need to be able to discuss his fuck ups or what some may think are fuck ups without having the perfect source.

but at the same time we should be able to discuss how Biden makes it easy to grab a clip and make him look like an ass.
I saw thru that last clip as soon as I watched it but the media is going to use this shit against him.
I appreciated the convos and pushback going on in that thread

16. "I just think with politics " In response to Reply # 15
we should be able to chop it up without being called MAGA any time the criticism is also being used by some right winger somewhere else online.

20. "gonna see my sister, mom, niece and nephew finally" In response to Reply # 0
my sister finally got called back to work so before she starts she decided to drive across texas to visit my brother and i. we all pretty much stay in hour houses. i think we will mostly just spend our time at my brothers house while theyre here. still risky but cant say im not excited.
very last minute but im with it. seeing my other nephew as well. only missing my brother from SC. went ahead and gave myself a haircut last night. i think it was the quickest one ive done and i think it turned out pretty good.
if only my car stereo didnt give out yesterday this would be a pretty perfect weekend lol
