Your subliminal shots don’t mean sh-t if you can’t @ me,” reads the start of her message, a caption of a photo of her brother side by side with an emoji with the message “I’m a Scorpio.” That was just the very first sip of the team. You know it was really because she used Fab’s (born John David Jackson) first name. She continued, “We are done in reality and I won’t front for the gram or any other app. Fuck you! John. Go ban all the rest of the people that post up about you, you won’t be able to stop the blogs IDIOT.” Well damn. Although it isn’t clear what cause this epic fallout, she wrote they are “beyond reconciliation.” Reportedly, Fab attended his niece’s graduation despite not speaking to her mother (his sister). She also warned family to mind their biz before she starts telling tales directly to the media. Read the full spiel below.

Judge Greg Mathis Donates 50,000 Bottles Of Water To Flint Schools

J udge Greg Mathis is furthering his efforts to help individuals impacted by the water crisis in Flint, Michigan. According to NBC News , the Detroit native recently donated 50,000 bottles of water to the city’s students. TV’s Judge Mathis donating more than 50,000 bottles of water to Flint schools https://t.co/UnEnt3pWGh — MLive (@MLive) October 31, 2019 After learning about the cognitive effects that the contaminated water has had on several students within the school system, Mathis was determined to address the issue. The 50,000 bottles of water will be dispersed to schools throughout Flint on Monday. Mathis has also teamed up with AquaTru to provide nine water filtration systems to charter schools in the city. He believes that no parent should be put in a position to risk their child’s health due to the lack of accessibility to clean water. He added that if government officials aren’t going to rectify the situation, then individuals like himself will step up. “It’s difficult to win the confidence of the citizens that you have allowed to be harmed,” he said. “If you wouldn’t risk it for your children, don’t ask these parents to risk it for theirs.” This isn’t the first donation that Mathis has made. Last year, he sent thousands of cases of water to Flint residents. News about Mathis’ donation comes after 12-year-old activist Amariyanna Copeny⁠ —who is known Little Miss Flint⁠—raised over $130,000 to create a long-term sustainable solution to the water crisis by bringing state-of-the-art water filters to underserved communities. The implementation of the water filters would give individuals the ability to have safe running water within their households. Earlier this year, rapper and actor Jaden Smith ’s eco-friendly natural spring water brand JUST Goods Inc. teamed up with Flint’s First Trinity Missionary Baptist Church to implement a system called “The Water Box” which reduces lead and other toxic chemicals in contaminated water.

For The Trolls: Cardi B Reveals Why She Thinks The Comment Section Is The Worst Part Of Instagram, Not The Likes

Source: Reebok / Reebok Cardi B Thinks Instagram Could Improve By Changing The Comment Section Earlier this week, Instagram announced that they would be expanding their test to hide a picture’s number of likes to some users in the United States. Because of this news, conversations have started around whether or not this is a good idea–and Cardi B , someone whose built their career off of the platform, has something to say. According to the rapper, there are much bigger problems than likes. “It’s a big ruckus right now that the likes on Instagram are getting taken away,” she said in an Instagram post on Friday. “This is my opinion on it, right? So from the beginning of Instagram, we had likes. And I feel like in the beginning of Instagram, everything was so fun, people wanted to post their pictures, get likes … where I think that Instagram got a little nasty, and it just took a weird turn, was when people started to like the comments, when they were allowed to like comments or reply back to somebody’s comments.” View this post on Instagram This is just my opinion….I mean what makes you feel more insecure getting no likes or people constantly giving opinions about you ,your life and topics? what you think IG should do ? A post shared by Iamcardib (@iamcardib) on Nov 9, 2019 at 5:08pm PST In her rant, Cardi talks about the toxicity that lives within certain comment section, pointing out that many users will post comments for the sole purpose of getting a reaction out of others. “That’s when I feel like when people started sayin’ nasty things…somebody would just say something so vile because they want comments back. Some people don’t have a life…I see a lot of people dedicate they time into sayin’ some of the craziest, most absurd shit on comments, just for likes and comments back. And I feel like that’s what’s messing up Instagram.” But there’s not only people who express too much of their own opinion on the platform. According to Cardi, the comment section has kept some fans from expressing their views because they might not want to risk getting attacked over a difference in opinion. “If anything is affecting Instagram right now, it’s the way the comments have been done or have been changing these past few years,” she said. “I feel people been sayin’ the most weirdest shit, been starting the craziest arguments, been starting to race bait … because they want to get to the top, they want to get the most reactions. And that’s what I feel: The comments effect more than the likes.” While Cardi has a point, users on Instagram do have the option of turning off comments on their posts is they so choose–but is that enough? Or should the platform do away with comments all together?

What Break-Up? Travis Scott Calls Kylie Jenner His “Beautiful Wife” Onstage At ASTROWORLD Festival

Source: Tommaso Boddi / Getty Travis Scott Calls Kylie Jenner “Wife” After Reported Break-Up Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner are doing really well with co-parenting following reports a few weeks back that they were taking a break–so well, in fact, it looks like they might have gotten back together. The rapper’s second annual ASTROWORLD Festival took place on Saturday, November 9 in his hometown of Houston, Texas. Along with hosting the whole event, Travis also headlined the festival, performing for the 50,000 + people expected to attend. While he was on stage getting sentimental about the second year of his very own festival, he took the time out to thank those who helped him get here. Among those people: his baby mama and their daughter. Even though these two supposedly broke up back in October, it’s not too surprising that Kylie would bring Stormi to the festival anyway to supervise as she supports her dad. The unexpected part came when Travis referred to what fans thought was his ex-girlfriend as “my beautiful wife.” View this post on Instagram They never broke up to begin with! A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk LLC (@theneighborhoodtalk2) on Nov 9, 2019 at 10:26pm PST Earlier in the day, Travis also posted a picture to his Instagram story that further fueled these rumors of reconciliation. The Houston native posted a photo of ASTROWORLD flowers that were sent to him, writing on the post, “love u That I really do,” along with a heart and butterfly emoji. Of course, fans are assuming Kylie was the one to send the thoughtful gift. View this post on Instagram Awww it looks like #KylieJenner might have sent her baby daddy this beautiful #Astroworld floral arrangement as he holds his annual Astroworld Festival in Houston today!! A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom) on Nov 9, 2019 at 12:52pm PST So, maybe Kylie and Travis never really broke up in the first place, or maybe they’re working on things and got back together recently. Or, Trav’s “beautiful wife” call out could have been an attempt to swoon his baby mama back into his arms. Either way, it’s good to see they’re keeping their little family close together regardless of their relationship status.
