Issues with religion, gun control, homosexuality all intertwined in one mass shooting. This is the perfect storm for American Politics...

50 dead WTF?

Yes, the Western world is sooooo evil, so horrible, so backwards. China is #1 when it comes to human rights. Meanwhile, in the real world.
Yes, 'cause that's exactly what I meant.

I really hate the western governments coming for China. Without slavery or colonizations the western world wouldn't be what they are today. They have absolutely no place to tell what other developing countries should do (except for nuclear weapons for obvious reasons). It's like you robbed 5 candies by killing 50 kids but when another person tries to steal two candies you are the first one to step up and scream "you can't do that it's illegal!!!".

I can't believe people are going in on the zoo and saying all animal lives are equal and they should've just left the kid alone...

A Gap Kids ad for Ellen DeGeneres' clothing line has sparked a social media backlash for having a racial undertone after presenting the only black girl in the campaign as an arm rest
Quote:
Gap Kids has apologized after an ad for Ellen DeGeneres' clothing line sparked a social media backlash for having a racial undertone.
The company shared pictures for the GapKids X ED campaign on Twitter on Saturday with the caption: 'Meet the kids who are proving girls can do anything.'
'We all have the power to empower one another,' is the tagline for the line – aimed to encourage young girls to 'follow their passions.'
But Twitter users immediately spotted the flaw in the four photographs posted on Gap's Twitter account – and called the company out on presenting the only black girl as a prop.
The company was blasted for only using one 'token' child of color – and presenting her as an arm rest for a white girl. The white girls, meanwhile, are shown doing gymnastics, DJing and using a telescope.
Fatima La'Juan Muse said: '@GapKids proving girls can do anything… unless she's Black. Then all she can do is bear the weight of White girls. #EpicFail.'
Muse added that the picture suggests there is lack of diversity in the boardroom at Gap as 'most people of color would have immediately recognized the error.'
'Thanks for perfectly illustrating what 'passive racism' looks like in mainstream media,' wrote Jessica Wow.
The line, a collaboration with Ellen DeGeneres, is aimed to encourage young girls to 'follow their passions'

Again, as I said in another thread....This is the media trying to make fake outrage over NOTHING!
Like I said. They take one or two tweets of someone spouting off some bullshit and then make a headline that says "OUTRAGE OVER SUCH AND SUCH!!!!!!!!!" when there really isn't any outrage at all.
Personally I don't think this SJW movement is anywhere near as big as people make it out to be. I honestly think its the media that manufactures this faux outrage for attention/ratings and click bait.
Gwen's post has like 12000 comments, there was an actual outrage

She posted it for April Fool's , but people on social media are criticizing her for being insensitive and disrespectful toward people who have fertility issues

@NaptownKay
Shame on @gwenstefani for saying she's pregnant as an #AprilFools joke! Many women suffer from infertility and would love to have a child
I'm so done with society

How can a song sound nostalgic and bonkers at the same time? She did it with this one! Nas's verse is everythaaang
-
Let me appreciate this beautiful song...ONE MORE TIME...before this forum closes.
-
Here's a fixed version
:Album: "Iconic(Demos)" what is that?
But anyways THANKS! Now lemme replace the album version with this FLAWLESS one. I can do with a lower sound quality
-
It's reflective and honest.
It really is but I can't help but take the song too literally.
-
Why can't we wait til the DVD project?
-
Queen is way too depressing to be released. should stay in the her computer forever.
oh wait.
-
Can some music geek here edit out the defective blowout sound of the second chorus. The song would be 10/10 without this mixing tragedy...

Thank You M.
Best album since American Life
Best tour since Confessions
Best music videos since Ray Of Light era
Best face since Ray Of Light era
Best promo since Confessions era
Best character since Erotica

I don't understand why people would want her to work with old producers! Do they not remember MDNA? I keep seeing fans saying "bring back Patrick! bring back Mirwais" I don't get it to be honest.
-
Only the DEMO Version, the album version is weak
It's 2016. All demo talk should be BANNED
and the album version is PERFECTION. One of her best songs of all time.
-
First verse: a mess and a half! Crowdonna at it's worst!
Second verse: yaaaas slay me M!
Chorus: Yaaaaaaaaaaaas live for that love Queen!
Breakdown: Eh......? Am I supposed to dance to this?

OMG
I'm NOT kidding
Maybe it was my first time seeing her but ever since I got the tickets for RHT I was counting down the days to see her and couldn't properly function at work for a few days before my shows. Now that I've fulfilled one of my dreams I feel like I'm back to the normal life and there will be a void in me once this era ends. I'm pathetic -
I never understood the notion of people being obsessive fans whose lives revolve around their idols but M turned me into that state ever since Nov 2014. Every day I listen to her music, come to MNation to check out news, follow every show closely, purchase old singles and rare records, and most importantly think about her all the time. I've been her fan since 2006 but this has NEVER occurred to me before
-
From the music to the imagery, it's almost like she knew exactly what was gonna happen (the endless controversies, family issues etc.) during this era!

Lifted me up and watched me stumble
After the heartache, I'm gonna carry on
When the world gets cold, I'll be your cover
Let's just hold onto each other
Trying to be so provocative
I said, Oh yeah, that was me
All the things I did just to be seen
Even hearts made out of steel can break down
I'm not Joan of Arc, not yet
I'm only human
I never gave up fighting in the dark
I came, I saw, I conquered
The best era ever

For me the album is all about the melodies, the lyrics, the spirit and Madonna's voice.
In terms of production is one of her worst, along with MDNA. In fact, production and mixing take away some magic from several songs, both in RH and in MDNA.
LIving For Love is one of my fav songs that Madonna has recorded, but the production isn't imaginative, doesn't lift the song as it should... the same with others.
RH is all about songwriting so it doesn't really need any out-of-the-world amazing production to outshine the beautiful songs themselves. I'd agree that there are a few songs with sloppy production (breakdown of LFL, mixing of Hold Tight, drum on JOA and HBC, the overproduced Iconic). The remains are just as perfect as they are.

I love D!!! Used to hang out there every month when I was in college. Yes there's a zombieland vibe to it but downtown is completely safe even at nights. The atmosphere there is just so unique and rare! One of my favorite American cities.
