Spanking

There was this heated and very entertaining episode of The Tyra Show where mothers & women were discussing the morality of spanking and the whole nine.  I recommend you watch/find it on the web or WHATEVER if you like debates period.  I'd say it was one of the best episodes of Ty Ty, and I'm a religious viewer.  (:
In my opinion, no rules can be set in stone when they concern people.  That is truly the bottom line.  Why?  Because of the big V!  Variation exists with people, and therefore with the situations they are involved in.  So the only way to understand how to discipline a child, in my opinion, is to know the child.  Discipline is all about repercussions.  You do something bad and something bad happens to you.  Parents put you in time out, take away something of yours, or spank you, whatever.  Parents just have to know what disciplinary actions mean to their child or children and decide what repercussion is suitable to the malicious action.  Every child cannot have the same upbringing because they require different things, and in turn, different nurturing or disciplinary actions.
I'm not a parent THANK BEEZUS, so I know it is easier said than done.  But that is my 2 cents.
As a side note, I also believe parents should never spank a child when they are mad.  You need to calm down first and the reason why is this:  Don't you want to shoot a person sometimes?  After you calm down, you'll still be ticked, but it won't be with as much anger.  So don't wind up shooting your kid or yelling at them as if you'd want to shoot them.  It is scary af!

Color

It bothers me that black people are constantly referred to as people of color.  Since when is brown more of a color than pink?  Or cream?  Or yellow?  If I really wanted to, I could go around and stick a color on everyone in the world.  So why are black people and Indian people and blah blah referred to as people of color.  Let’s please put more thought into these classifications if they’re going to be the burdens of so many people, shall we?

I think if we’re really classifying based on skin tone, the name should be people of melanin.  Who was the dummy who declared that what makes my skin brown is color?  I’m really upset with you, sir or madam.  Do your research before giving me this heat.  My skin is the way it is because I have more melanin than others.  I own color too, but only because I get excited in art supply stores and tend to buy way too many crayons and markers than necessary but that is not your business!  My color is irrelevant!  My melanin is what you see.

Making an Exception

To the normal 320x265 for a Ye music video.
Do you see relations betwixt the song and the video?  That's what the hoopla is about.  They're also saying he's a devil worshipper, in the Illuminati and whatnot.  Yuck
I am disappointed with the boobs.

I watched this last night

on HBO it was great the first half was all about atheism and how stupid Christians are and stuff I really like him lol the rest was just other funny jazz and his australian-ness entertains me too

okay so yesterday i heard the most disturbing lyrics ever by david banner...i really just dont like him as a person because he recognizes things that are wrong in the black community and he speaks on it but then it's as if he is 2 faced majormajormajor because some of his lyrics are reaaally demeaning.  as much as he speaks on the wrong shit, you would think he raps about stuff that say common or mos def do but then he talks about fucking and fucking and fucking which i have no problem with but does he have to say things like "Do you like it when I grab your neck? And squeeze it til your face turns blue; could you please come and sign this waiver? If you pass out girl, you can't sue." that is sooo disrespectful to me personally i dont know much about the respect that professional groupies demand but still you really should not be talking to any woman like that, unless idk im not gonna bring my head there lol. Maybe I shouldn’t criticize him because his work and his play are 2 different things but really I just don’t understand how he can be 2 completely different people. And I don’t like that he is. That just really disturbed me as many of his song lyrics do.

Ugh why is this the medium of every debate in this generation

response to another blog

It's just like the words bitch or (sometimes) gay bc the whole relating its concrete meaning to people was ORIGINALLY supposed to be negative...i don't say gay bc idk it's just not a part of my vocabulary i only define it as homosexual and even saying it meaning happy is odd to me. :p i do say bitch but i say it positively and negatively. like i'll call my loved buddies bitch n shit but it's casual and neutral. i'll also say it if i'm cursing somebody out JUST because it sounds good...i'm not thinking about a female dog. and when i say nigga (which i say often) i'm not thinking about a slave that eats from the slob bucket...i don't even use it with just black people nor do i even think about the definition as a black (male) person when i use it anymore. it's just a name for people that are on the same level as me. meaning that i don't respect them as much as i do elders, or sugar coat things like i do to minors...i'm just casual with them and i don't monitor my speaking. but yeah...i mean the people i use it with understand where i'm coming from so i don't see why I personally have to stop...even taking the word's history into consideration. but if a friend is uncomfortable with me using it, i won't use it around them. but it would be awkward, bc i'm going back to monitoring my speech.

Why do I babble so much.
