If, according to Kanye West, one good girl is worth a thousand bitches, and if, according to Lil Wayne, bitches come a dime a dozen, it means that one good girl is worth $8.33 USD (2015).
thank you for this
I need the equation you used for this
It’s your basic equation substitution method. You simplify the second equation from Lil Wayne (the blue one) and plug it into the original equation from Kanye (red one) and solve for the answer (green).

Reblogging again for the extended list!
Diversity in pop culture is an issue that is a hell of a lot more important than it sounds on paper. Why should it matter who appears in a story if it’s just escapist entertainment?
One reason is that entertainment tends to unintentionally carry subtext about normalcy in the societies entertainment portrays. What kind of people can be heroes or leaders? What kind of people are scummy or evil? Who can fall in love with whom? And what descriptive traits do we use to describe someone as “normal”?
We don’t mean to, but we tend to look to entertainment for these answers. Children especially, who tend to live in very controlled environments, look for role models and learn all kinds of things about our world through the entertainment they enjoy.
I talk about all this as background for the three Peanuts strips above. These strips were published in the summer of 1968, and introduced Franklin, the first black character to appear in Charles Schultz’s newspaper cartoon. The story behind Franklin’s inception didn’t happen naturally, and actually began just two weeks after Martin Luther King was assassinated.
A schoolteacher named Harriet Glickman, moved by Dr. King’s life and the shock of his assassination, wrote a letter to Schultz, requesting he add more black characters to Peanuts.
Schultz was at first reluctant to fulfill Glickman’s request , not because of prejudice, but rather a fear of being patronizing and condescending. But he was eventually convinced by further letters from Glickman and some of her African American friends, and so Schultz created Franklin.
The inclusion of Franlkin brought controversy and uproar from readers and editors alike to Schultz door for inviting a black character to befriend Charlie Brown and attend a desegregated school with him. But Schultz stood by his word to Glickman, and Franklin became a regular character in Peanuts from then on out. He never became a major character anywhere near the status Charlie, Snoopy, or Lucy, but he was important as one of the few black characters in mid-century American comic strips to be portrayed as a child no different from the rest of the Peanuts cast.
I got most of the info in this post about the history of Franklin from this article that you can read by clicking here. I highly recommend that you read it so that you can read the complete correspondence that lead Schultz to create Franklin. It’s incredibly eloquent and has a lot of great insight into the importance of diversity in popular culture.

People are already getting in their feelings because how dare people mention that Yasuke was a slave (not a servant as media outlets are reporting) and how dare movies now ‘insert’/want to tell the story of a black historical figure.

“Yes, there were some fantastic creations made, and we’re going to certainly revive those characters … “ – Reginald Hudlin on Milestone 2.0 [x]
I had all of these growing up. New idea's great stories. I would love to collect them again and see a movie made with all milestone comics character's in it!
Marvel Gallery Unmasked Ironheart Figure
It took a billionaire genius with endless resources at his disposal to create the Iron Man suit. And it took a 15 year old MIT student to reverse-engineer all that fancy tech using stolen parts. She’s definitely a genius and a superhero - and Riri Williams has more than earned the right to be Ironheart. This limited edition unmasked statue reveals Marvel’s latest hero in all her glory! Originally a 2017 San Diego Comic-Con exclusive from Diamond Select Toys, we happen to have lucked into a small stash of them - and our good fortune is your opportunity! This diorama shows Ironheart blasting off from a techie-looking base, hovering on a swirl of translucent blue energy. Sculpted by Phil Ramirez.
