astroalive:

Aries: They’ll always be willing to defend those weaker than them, even when all of the odds are stacked against them or the situation is terrifying – They actually are dreamers – Can’t tell a lie: either they’re no good at it or are unwilling to ever do it – When in a crisis, they can cool a situation like no one else – Brave but not when it comes to physical pain (probably hasn’t gone to the dentist in years and will whine if you try to make them).

Taurus: Despite their calm and peaceful nature, once angry their rage is unlike anything else and you probably won’t see it coming – Even though they’re typically stoic and calm they can still brood and pout like nobody else – Though they’re down to earth they can be very materialistic – Steady and stoic Taurus can feel very shy about their body.

Gemini: If you need help, Gemini will be the first by your side – Sometimes their advice will be so dead-on or out of character that it’ll blow you away – Their bubbly, playful, and sometimes irresponsible attitude may make it surprising when they start talking about quarks, RNA and DNA, or even Shakespeare – They may be the smartest person you’ve ever met and probably are – They’re awesome with kids and know how to talk to them.

Cancer: They can be silly, funny,the life of the party – They are actually pretty pessimistic – They’ll nearly bite your head off out of nowhere, even just asking a simple question, if they are feeling “crabby” – They are so expressive and good at communicating you’ll almost experience their feelings with them, even if you’re the most detached person alive – Friend, sibling, parent, no matter how they’re related to you they’ll hug you and kiss you, which may shock a friend or two – They can order around even the most stubborn people (Cancer is the Matriarch of the Zodiac for a reason).

Leo: They are remarkably generous to the point of self-sacrifice, they’ll give you a hundred bucks no questions asked – Despite their boldness and outgoing nature, deep down they often doubt themselves and feel insecure – They are remarkably romantic – They actually love to teach others in some way – Their optimism and faith are very beautiful – They can’t stand to feel weak and may hurt themselves by not going to the doctor when they need to.

Virgo: They can actually be a little vain – They are very good actors (and will use this to get out of going to that party you’re throwing) – They can become grumpy very suddenly, which doesn’t fit with their cool, calm, perfect exterior – They are very, very health conscious and will shock you with their knowledge of the human body, medicine, and/or psychology – They’ll help you, no questions asked, and expect nothing in return no matter how big the favor.

Libra: They can’t stand taking orders – They can actually be all over the place and very unbalanced, it takes time and maturity to become balanced – They can actually be pretty feisty and confrontational – They’re not always charming and flirtations, they can be indolent and completely unaware of others’ feelings – They don’t like to make decisions.

Scorpio: They are sexual but not sex-crazed maniacs – They can be intimidating with their piercing eyes, mysterious nature, and supernatural air but that doesn’t mean they’re dangerous, actually, they’re usually softies – You cannot insult a Scorpio, they are too sure to bother with you – They have steeled their face and show as little emotion as possible but feel very deeply – Scorpios are actually very heroic, they will risk their life and do so without regrets, no matter what – They are protective and gentle, especially of children and those in need.

Aquarius: Intimacy may scare them – They are realists who still believe in magic – They can make a game out of shocking others – They’ll laugh at you for laughing at them, as Linda Goodman once wrote – They, like Scorpio, have an almost supernatural perception – They ask blunt and sometimes bizarre questions – They won’t even blink at the most bizarre of things.

Pisces: They can be emotional, but that doesn’t make them unable to handle the world around them or weak – They’ll smile through their tears – You can’t hurt them with an insult – Though they may seem to see the world through rose-colored glasses they are nowhere near naive – Despite their bright personality, despondency is always hanging over their shoulder.

Let’s talk about Whitney Houston the conduit.

When I say I want to be a conduit of opportunity, Whitney Elizabeth Houston is one of the gold standards to me of creating and opening doors for other performers.

This is the woman who declined performing the role of Cinderella as was originally offered, and promoting Brandy for the role in her place. The woman who could have done another fire solo soundtrack for Waiting To Exhale, but brought on over fourteen additional artists to perform tracks (many of which became hits and quiet storm staples). As a filmmaker she produced The Princess Diaries films, the Sparkle remake, and – yes, hunty – Cheetah Girls 1&2. #strutlikeyoumeanit

In 1999 she helped Mary J. Blige’s explosion into the mainstream stratosphere by bringing her onstage as a special guest during Vh1 Divas Live ‘99 – still a record-breaking broadcast that is a large reason Mary became a household name outside of the hip hop and R&B audience. In the studio and on stages she would pass the mic to Monica, Kelly Price, Karen Clark Sheard, and others, an unabashed fan of vocals and technique.

This was a woman who loved being a woman, who loved being Black, and despite mounting obstacles in her personal life, still attempted to promoted quality entertainers and produced quality content that showed positive images of other women and other Black people AND other Black women. Who can forget Raven-Symoné (back when we didn’t have the problems we do now) dropping and posing in heels and skintights while weighing more than her Cheetah peers and the film allowed her to be thought of as driven, desirable and accessible as a contemporary lead who was not Hollywood conventional – something we didn’t really get again until Annalise Keating showed up on our screens two years ago.

Too often she’s been reduced to her voice or her issues. Here’s to just another facet of an American Black Diamond. Here’s to Whitney the conduit. Black history is world history. Salute.

So lately I have been seeing some ranting by the ladies that run porn blogs ad these are the top 3 problems in my opinion.

1)We don’t owe you shit!!

 I don’t care if you sent us a nice message, I don’t
have to respond. And if I choose to respond that doesn’t mean I have to be open
to your shitty message asking if you can lick my clit. Stop harassing us, if we
didn’t give our kik/sc the first time the 30th time you asked
nothing is going to change. I don’t care if I am showing the deepest part of my
pussy every night, that doesn’t mean I want to hook up. That doesn’t mean I
want to exchange nudes with you. Once again we don’t owe you SHIT!!!

2)Fat Babes are not your secret fetish.

Give me
one good reason why you went thru my tagged/me, liked every last thing I posted
this year, but didn’t reblog and then try to come holla at me???? But when I go
to your blog you have only skinny models. Yes I agree the models are pretty
too, but you pretty much telling me that my fat body doesn’t need a place on
your blog. That I, a fat babe, doesn’t belong among the other pretty women.
Leave me the fuck alone and you blocked for being stupid.

3)Black guys that only blog white women.

 Why are you following me fam? I go to your blog
and there is nothing but white models. But you follow me and like my shit. My
black body is never going to make it to that blog, don’t hit me up and you
blocked to. I’m not hating on white women, they pretty too, but at the same
time I won’t be a secret fetish for anyone.

US government sues Ferguson over police reform.

The US Justice Department is suing Ferguson, Missouri to force the city to adopt police reforms negotiated with the federal government.

Unarmed black teenager Michael Brown was shot dead by a police officer in the city in 2014, sparking protests. Ferguson was required to reform its policing after investigators found widespread racial bias in the force.

US Attorney General Loretta Lynch said there was no option but to sue after the city voted to revise the agreement.
