Pass the Popcorn

Tre’vell participated w/ Scalawag Magazine which did an in-depth look at copaganda, and it’s made them reassess media portrayals of cops and those in law enforcement. Still, is it possible to believe copaganda is harmful while also enjoying Niecy Nash as an FBI agent in The Rookie: Feds?

Plus, did Billy Eichner do himself any favors making the rounds on his press tour for Bros? Tre’vell doesn’t think so, and though they and jarrett will, at some point, get around to seeing the film, they’ve found Eichner’s interviews to be off-putting.

Brooklinen

High-quality materials are the most important element of a good sheet – not thread count. The Brooklinen team uses single-ply yarns from long-staple cotton – which create soft, strong fabric and a true thread count – while most manufacturers use weaker multi-ply yarns to inflate their thread count and give the illusion of luxury quality. 

Visit Brooklinen.com and use Promo code [FANTI] for $20 off your purchase of $100 plus free shipping

BetterHelp is customized online therapy that offers video, phone and even live chat sessions with your therapist, so you don’t have to see anyone on camera if you don’t want to.
