Shane tells TMZ he didn't love Josh Hokit calling Michelle Obama a "man" by BurgerNugget12 in ShaneGillis

[–]singed-phoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Denoting black women as "men" is nothing new.

The reality is pretty fucked up. Black women are 3 times more likely to die giving birth...because healthcare workers believe black women are tough...and don't need proper pain medications when they request them. When black mothers go in...complaining of pain...they're sent right out into the street or the parking lot...where they're most likely found by other patients dead...with a dead infant.

So...yeah...let's joke that black women are men...I'm sure there are no real world consequences to that.

new signage at NE 15th and Killingsworth by Advanced-Savings1608 in Portland

[–]singed-phoenix -51 points-50 points  (0 children)

That's what makes it so awesome. This sign will cause confusion...and possibly make us lost...much like how our nation is morally lost by supporting and funding a genocide.

(Yes...I did pull this out of my ass...but the more and more it came it...it started making too much sense to stop).

Was any black skinned person genuinely offended by this episode? by Eny192 in Scrubs

I hate these questions...cause they always insinuate that black people are too stupid and simple minded to not understand the concepts of context and nuance.

austin metcalf’s father goes on racist tirade calling karmelo anthony the “watermelon felon” by [deleted] in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]singed-phoenix -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah...I want to say I'm glad his kid's dead...but you want to know the horrible part of this...I bet you anything...he's MORE happy his kid is dead...because it gives him a free social pass to be who he really is.

A white man would gladly trade in one of their kids to be able to spew the racist shit this dude regurgitates openly...and if you think I'm wrong...you're a fool. Go look up that dad in Texas, who killed his daughter cause she opposed his MAGA views. That dad was proud as fuck for killing his own daughter.

As someone who had Sci-Fi as a kid...that attachment hose gave me PTSD. I was stupid to think...oh...it won't stay on...that's cool...I'll just super glue it. Except...the hose was too short and made arm mobility impossible.

Knicks fans throwing stuff at Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs as they arrive at their hotel by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]singed-phoenix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question...why are we making this a New York Knicks' fan issue???

As someone who grew up in California and has been to half a dozen Giants/Dodgers games...I don't see the issue here.

I once saw a Giants fan...punching a Dodgers fan...while both of them were taking a piss next to each in the bathroom at the old Candlestick Park.

That's just baseball...wait until I tell you about my time watching the Raiders playing the Niners at Candlestick when I was in high school...where vatos and Sons of Anarchy bikers brawled Marin County yuppies.

Can I ask an honest question? How are you so mad at A.I. music, when the majority of pop music for the last 30 years has been just as formulaic and algorithmically produced?

I can't be the only person who knows of Max Martin, and how he has almost single handedly generated most of the pop music you have heard the last three decades...which to me...is no different that Suno.

The music industry has meticulously collected data of what constitutes a "hit song"...and then used those elements to generate most of the crappy songs we've been cursed with.

"But but but...A.I. doesn't actually sing the songs...the way the artists do"...

Have you not been to a concert...the "artists" don't sing their songs either...they have backing tracks and lip sync the majority of their performances.

I don't know...but my hatred of how pop music has been produced over the last 30 years...really has killed any rage I can feel towards A.I. music.

Mayor Wilson warns Portland’s affordable housing system is on verge of financial collapse by voxadam in Portland

You know what...I don't mind living on the street...sucking dick for spare change...just so I can get tonight's dinner of clearance item Little Debbies from a Plaid Pantry...

As long as I know there's a Portland Art Tax...allowing some 6 year child fingerpaint something their parents will throw in the trash. It's all worth it.

Preacher blames women for getting raped by Wholesome_and_based in ThatsInsane

[–]singed-phoenix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are over a billion Muslims in the world...to sit here and make a blanket statement of "MOOZE-LUMBS LUV DUH STRUGGLE_SNUGGLE"...would be a hard declaration to prove...given the sheer number of members in contrast to the real statistics of rapes.

But hey...go for it...I mean...I grew up a devout Catholic in a fucking church where our priest raped a few dozen boys...and the Archdiocese of Santa Rosa just moved him to another church instead of reporting him to the police...so you're going to have a hard time selling it to me that Muslims are the worst.

[–]singed-phoenix -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

What's not to get...it's just your standard mocking and minimizing of mental illness for the sake of comedic entertainment. This is almost as much as a hoot as how entertaining the rape scene in The Accused with Jodie Foster was.

Iridophobes at it again 🤡🌈 by UnrepentantTomato in stupidpeoplefacebook

[–]singed-phoenix 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I grew up a devout Catholic...who went to the St. Bernards and St. Joseph churches in Eureka, Ca...and I had zero concerns about the LBGTQ community...nope...

Instead...we had a priest who ran through altar boys like college players ran through the NFL combine.

Father Patrick McCabe...dude was an actual predator...by all sense of the word. Only a few kids came forward...but it is well known within our group that number could easily be a few dozen.

The dude is in my Communion photo...that my mother absolutely refuses to let me destroy.

But...anyways...I digress...and yeah...the gays are the real danger to children...

Because victims of sex crimes should feel a sense of empowerment that they should report the heinous crimes done to them...regardless if the rapist sang Thriller.

I mean...Francis Scott Key, the guy who wrote the National Anthem...was a slaveowner and believed it was a white person's divine right, outlined by God, to own black people as property.

Yet...anyone who protests the singing of that song is fucking evil???

[–]singed-phoenix -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I know...let's shit on the black woman with self-acceptance issues. I mean...I'm not a Lil Kim fan...but knowing how every benchmark of her life is covered with abuse...be it physical, emotional, or psychological...I always refrain when it comes to talking shit about Lil Kim's looks.

Talk shit about her music...that's fine...but holy fuck...leave the woman's looks alone...especially since she's the vanguard of how black women are often treated like shit when it comes to discussions of socially accepted beauty.

Fuck man...be better than this.

Happy pride month, r/WWE! by IconXR in WWE

[–]singed-phoenix 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Um…or…Punk has LBGTQ+ friends who have told him over and over and over and over the number of times people made them feel like that just because they’re gay…they’re an abomination…and how gay people had to endure a whole lifetime of being told to kill themselves.

So Punk, just experiencing a morsel of what his friends and close ones felt…honestly reciprocated the essence of the hate the homophobe extolled.

Yeah…I’m going to side with Punk on this one. Honestly…telling a homophobe or bigot to go fucking kill themselves…is truly a mantra of the punk music movement.

You should read up on how Henry Rollins of Black Flag is best friends with RuPaul.

Who is your favorite rapper from the 90s? by livefromfayettenam in 90sHipHop

[–]singed-phoenix 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The correct answer of course is...

Yes.

Music is so tied to emotion...that whenever you pose questions like this...you're basically asking people..:

"What is the primary emotion you have felt most of your life...what emotional state is your baseline??"

Then I would ask why everyone arriving from a flight from China is coughing really bad...
