lolquote:Jay Z didn't even speak at the somewhat-awkward event himself - he let Alicia Keys give a weird speech, quoting Nietzsche and trying to paint the whole endeavour as a revolution in music - redirecting money from big corporations to artists. She also called it "the first ever artist-owned global music and entertainment platform," which is clear evidence of one of the most heinous crimes in music: forgetting about Dre.

your life is not too important that you can't take 2 hours a week for a couple of grocery store trips. I know it makes you feel better and more important to believe that you're indispensable to literally every person that comes across you, and you can't gently caress around with grocery shopping, but it's literally not true.

some trep should innovate some kind of big store you can go to that has everything from tires to dish soap to jorts to furniture, and they should be really cheap, cheaper than places in the mall! big parking lots too. i'd shop there, but i wouldn't want any poor people to also shop there.

They opened a walmart express at colfax and havana six months ago, and the shelves are empty already. its super depressing given that you can still smell the concrete and fresh paint and get reminded that it's a BRAND NEW STORE.
