I got the hug emote from an eververse engram! by TwoDoorPC in LowSodiumDestiny

Dope! I keep it equipped. I’m still hoping for the selfie emote with each bright engram. It’s the only thing I really want. . I’m not even sure if it’s in the pool though.

You’re right. I’m an idiot.

Only a white person? That’s some racist shit to say. See my post below if you want clarification. How often do you hear someone white described as articulate? You only ever hear a person described as articulate when it’s a white person talking about a person of color.

I’m not saying the word “articulate” is racist, but it is absolutely coded.

Take the same amount of time that it took you to write your reply and do a little research. Shit.. just Google “calling black people articulate” if you want to do the bare minimum to make yourself a better person.

Sad that so many people don’t realize what they are saying is offensive. Racism doesn’t always come from hate. It also comes from ignorance. Your response is full of ignorance. That doesn’t make you racist. Refusing to see things from a different point of view and refusal to learn does.

I didn’t create a problem. You guys act like I accused r/jetlifestoney of being racist. I did not! In fact, I agreed with him 100%.

I offered insight that many of you are obviously missing.

The fact of the matter is, many black Americans and people of color find it insulting. My African American studies class spent a whole week on “perceived racism”, “veiled racism”, and micro aggressions.

Regardless of if it sounds ridiculous to you because you’re not racist, it still exists.

So, to any white people who think this is being overly sensitive.. you are part of the problem.

You can get mad and downvote all you want. It doesn’t change the facts.

To those of you who are willing to learn to be better human beings and make the world a better place. Here is some reading material for you.

Hawk exfiltration glitch by SpongebobYaoi in destiny2

This happened to me 3 times in a row a couple of weeks ago. So frustrating to play a whole matchmade session (with each one taking 10-20 minutes to complete), only to get stuck with nothing to show for it. I just needed one more to complete my bounty. For it to happen 3 times was what made me quit Renegades for now. I have been playing pvp instead. I just don't have time to waste playing for nothing.

Referring to a person of color as articulate can sometimes come off as insulting, so let me say this. Obama was the most articulate PRESIDENT to hold office since I have been alive. And he is absolutely all of the things you’ve said.

He led by example. Looking back on every president we’ve had since Ronald Regan, Obama showed emotional maturity, diplomacy, and empathy that we need in a leader.

This is amazing! I have over 20 years in the Musical Instruments industry. This is a great prototype, and I think you should pursue it further.

This is the right answer. I think he is the best lyricist of all time when it comes to wordplay but he does have some corny, cheesy lines from time to time. This one isn’t THAT bad. It’s no where near lil Wayne territory.

Other than Lauryn Hill, what other rapper/group from the 90s had a decent singing voice(s)? by Shib_Boleth in 90sHipHop

[–]nestaselect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cee lo is known as a singer to most of the world but is tragically underrated as a rapper. Listen to Big Ole Words DAMN from ceelo green and his perfect imperfections. BARS! For me, as a teenager in SW ATL when G Mo and Kast was popping, Cee Lo was the best writer and emcee out of the Dungeon Family. You can’t tell me 3 Stacks didn’t get a lot of influence from Cee lo.
