When I read some people's text messages I can tell that they're fan's of mumble tap. They're a catchy beat & hook away from a hit new song. Yes, the bar is now that low.

@shawnarenee.bsky.social if Donald Trump invited you to dinner would you go? I'm in no way defending SAS, I don't even fool with that dude. But how come every time a black man "who's platform is big enough to get in those rooms" is considered a sell out for being there? Regardless of their reasons.

Do we not want anyone to try to talk some sense into him? I said try. Lol Or are just going to assume that they're all sell-outs for even talking to him?

The last public execution in the US occurred in the late 1930s. The hanging of Rainey Bethea in Kentucky in August 1936, is widely considered the last officially public execution in the country. A black man hung. With all.. I'll just say "not black people" in attendance. Is this what MAGA means?

News Flash: Constantly shitting on or pointing fingers at any other racial group, gender, age range, sexual orientation, immigrants, political partys etc.. it's not the flex you think it is. Because assholes come in all forms and tax brackets!

@shawnarenee.bsky.social I have a question. Do you think that voting is enough? That as long as someone votes it's acceptable if they're indifferent to most issues that affect the community. I ask this question because we have to be honest about.. that everyone ain't built for all fights. Just vote!

I'm curious to know if anyone still enjoys the airport experience? Specifically the airport, not the actual flights.

So they're more concerned with capping how much money college athletes can earn than they are capping gas prices or _____. ๐Ÿค” I'll allow you to fill in the blanks. #registertovote #themidterms #getinvolved

@shawnarenee.bsky.social I'm all for the boycotts but how are they supposed to catch on when they're being announced so close to the date they're supposed to start? I don't have a FB or IG or TT and a lot of other people don't f*ck with those platforms either. So the word needs time to spread. IJS

Where are all the parents of the young people who are so uninterested in exercising their right to vote? Are they uninterested to? Blissful ignorance is a generational curse.

@shawnarenee.bsky.social You hit the nail on the head with social media distracting people from what's really important. Social media has fueled the "temporary" outrage algorithm but it's distractions are also the reason people have such a hard time keeping that same energy.

@shawnarenee.bsky.social you really took a story about a black man being called a monkey and decided to open up the lines for people to shit on him more? And then stated that we shouldn't lose track of her real message? As far as I'm concerned there is no other message after calling him that.

What other ways are they going to come up with to waste our tax dollars?

The U.S. Mint releases video showing the manufacturing process for $1 coins featuring President Trump, issued to mark the United States' 250th anniversary in 2026. Critics have raised questions about the design's legality.

And I'm willing to bet you that US farmers will be one of the last to adopt it. As the traditional fertilizer producing companies start lobbying in Washington in 5..4..3...2....

๐Ÿšจ BREAKTHROUGH: After 40 years of research, Brazilian scientist Dr. Mariangela Hungria wins the World Food Prize for pioneering a $2 nitrogen-fixing bacteria treatment that replaces costly fertilizers, saves farmers $25 billion annually, and cuts 230 million tons of COโ‚‚ emissions.

Rest In Peace, Aaliyah. The iconic (and highly influential) singer passed away on this day in 2001 in a plane crash shortly after recording the video for one of her final hits, Rock The Boat. Play a track today in her honor. #UrbanViewMornings

A lot of people focus too much on personalities and private lives when it comes to politics. When it's their voting records that should matter most. "These politicians are not our friends!"

Vaccines are never going away. For one reason in particular; I'm sure the companies that create vaccines also donate and lobby in Washington.

When do y'all want to have a serious conversation about the lack of parenting that's going on out here? ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ So many of these young people are being groomed by social media while their parents are too busy on social media too.

If you don't vote that's your choice. All I ask is that you also don't come complaining to us later, because you left us hanging. YOU pay the consequences in silence while the rest of us who did participate will continue to fight the good fight. You're not bout that life!

Do y'all believe that the Democratic party is weakened or strengthened by the fact that there's so many separate groups within it, with their own agendas? While their opposition is more so aligned as a group. #Democrats #Liberals #Progressives #Establishment #AIPAC etc

It's Saturday. I hope some of y'all have something planned other than sitting on your phones worrying about what everyone else is doing all day.

Watching this all play out is a very telling example of how inept our political system has become. How are both parties and the governor of Kentucky just sitting there allowing a senators "existence" to be a mystery for this long? Why are they still asking rather than showing up to see??

AOC Makes A Great Point ๐Ÿ‘‰.......

Everyone has an opinion but it's your choice on whether you feel the need to prove them wrong or right. Just be you. They'll either accept you or they can find someone else who better aligns with the way they think. Doesn't make either party wrong or right. It just is what it is. ๐Ÿ’ฏ

@shawnarenee.bsky.social when listening to your story about the mother who shot the man who was caught in her house with her 13 child; there's one more thing I was waiting to hear. Where's the girl now? Is she ok? All I heard about was her mother and the pedo.

@shawnarenee.bsky.social I have a question. First of all I want to say that I don't agree with Jay Z's decision to do business with target or the NFL. BUT at this point I honestly believe that there's no amount that he could give back to satisfy most of his critics. What do you think?

And as far as the other rappers who caught strays during this mornings conversation. I'm sure a simple Google search can reveal whether they've gave back to their communities or not. Demanding that black celebrities show us receipts is kind of cringe. That's just my opinion.

That's ridiculous and I've been curious to know why I haven't heard much about those detention centers lately. The unfortunate war has been the perfect distraction.

The irony, police officers and black men actually have a lot in common. Both are viewed as threats soley off of their appearance alone and both are often hated for no other reason than they are who they are. Regardless of whether they're a good person or not. #blackmen #cops #irony

As someone who was allowed to drink and smoke weed at home as a teenager, I say to all parents who still allow that behavior at home, you ain't shit. Enough with that "I'd rather them do it at home where I know they're safe" bullshit. How about you educate them on how not doing it is even safer.

@shawnarenee.bsky.social The Democrats will never get anywhere if they keep playing this holier than thou stuff. Politics is a dirty game. I know the current headlines are on the guy in Maine but they've followed this same playbook for years. Let Maine worry about his character. I don't live there.

What's going to happen is the Democrats are going to lose Maine altogether by getting in their business. But again, I don't live there. It's just a senate seat to me. I could care less about him personally.
