Was that an Amazon Seller or a product that Amazon created. Either way I wonder if this going to get the same buzz as H&M's trash.

I feel like I've seen him a few times on FB for being a good father to his kids and teaching them a bunch of stuff. Gotta follow him closer.

Chamillionaire responds to critics who don't get why he helped Mexican immigrants

Criticizing him for helping someone? Social media can be toxic at times.

 

[goledensilence]

Heck I agree with him. I've always felt black and brown people should help each other out since we are both in the same situations.
Never really heard of black or brown people hating each other outside of Los Angeles, but that's mostly from gang politics.

 

[Nouss]

In the DMV, aint no gang wars over here anymore (i think) but you'd be naive to think they looking out for you.

Bachelor Creator Saw Low Ratings for Rachel Lindsay As ‘Disturbing’ and ‘Trumpish’

http://www.vulture.com/2018/01/bachelor-creator-on-ratings-dip-disturbing-trumpish.html

Dad’s not mad, he’s just disappointed. During the 2017 season of The Bachelorette, franchise creator and executive producer Mike Fleiss presented the perfect bachelorette: Rachel Lindsay was no-nonsense, ebullient, and good on camera. Lindsay was the franchise’s first black lead, and arguably the best ever. But Fleiss isn’t happy with how his beloved Bachelor Nation received Lindsay, given the series’ ratings dip during her season. “I found it incredibly disturbing in a Trumpish kind of way,” Fleiss told the New York Times. “How else are you going to explain the fact that she’s down in the ratings, when — black or white — she was an unbelievable bachelorette? It revealed something about our fans.”

So how will fans respond to even more diversity? As NBC broadcasts those other winter games, ABC will introduce the Bachelor Winter Games, a Bachelor in Paradise–style show with contestants from franchise’s domestic and international editions. Fleiss is determined to make Bachelor Nation eat their veggies: “I’m raring to try it again,” he told the Times about casting another nonwhite lead. “I think it’s important.”
