Chris Rock speaks out on Jussie Smollett at NAACP awards: 'You don't get no respect from me'

by Clémence Michallon

Chris Rock spoke out on the Jussie Smollett case on Saturday night, publicly asking the Empire actor: “What were you thinking?”

Rock took verbal jabs at Smollett during the 50th NAACP Image Awards, before presenting the Outstanding Comedy Series trophy to the ABC series Black-ish.

“They said no Jussie Smollett jokes,” Rock said from the stage.

“Yeah, I know, but what a waste of light skin. Do you know what I could do with that light skin? That curly hair, my career would be out of here. I would be running Hollywood.”

1 Year Rental Lease of Condo - want to stay another 3-4 months

bbi1 · Monday at 07:11 AM2 days

I have a 1 year rental lease of a condo I'm renting from a landlord. If I want to stay for another 3-4 months, how does it usually work? Do I need to ask the rental agent for another 3-4 month lease extension or can I just tell the agent I want to stay on and continue on a periodical basis of a month by month basis, on the same rental terms, after my 1 year lease has finished?

cash use declining in the UK

3NUMBAS · 4 hours ago4 hr

https://www.gbnews.com/money/cash-notes-coins-digital-banking-payments Britain's move away from cash is accelerating, raising fresh questions about how long notes and coins will remain part of everyday life. New figures show the country is becoming increasingly dependent on digital banking, while billions of cash payments disappear from the economy. Cash accounted for just eight per cent of all UK payments in 2025, according to UK Finance's latest Payment Markets Report. That is a dramatic fal

Ukraine could become Europe’s military powerhouse

bannork · 48 minutes ago48 min

Ukraine was once treated as a struggling recipient of Western aid. Four years of war have transformed it into something far more significant: one of Europe’s most battle-hardened military powers and a potential engine of the continent’s future defence. The West helped Ukraine survive Russia’s invasion. Now Kyiv’s battlefield experience, technology and defence industry could help Europe prepare for the wars it once thought unlikely. Ukraine has turned survival into military innovation Ukraine ha

Everyone loves the convenience of a cashless society… right up until the bank freezes your account, the internet goes down, the payment system crashes, or someone decides you’re no longer allowed to spend your own money. Cash might be old-fashioned, but it’s anonymous, immediate and doesn’t require permission from a bank, app or government. Once cash disappears, getting your money back becomes a request, not a transaction. 💵😉

Nemises replied to 3NUMBAS's topic in What the Papers are Saying

1.3 million is an extraordinary number — but the real question is why they’re eligible and what they’ve contributed in taxes before claiming. If someone has genuinely settled in the UK, worked and paid into the system, that’s one thing. Importing people into a welfare system where benefits become an expectation is another.

Military power? Maybe the army, but it no real navy, little in the way of airpower. It might have gained in experience, maybe innovated along the way. But its still a poor country, with an aging population. Postwar, it cannot support its military prowess, economically nor demographically.

This is encouraging news. I'm looking forward to the Democrats working on reducing the growing social program costs and striving for a balanced budget.

How will people remember you?

[Opinion. This article caused me to reflect on what we leave behind. Donnie & Bennie will go down in history, you & I won’t. In fact, most who are remembered by history are those that were most evil. The people on those planes and who died in the Towers are long forgotten except by their families. My father always said that the only way we live on is when the anecdotes which marked our lives are told. When those who cannot remember those anecdotes, you are well & truly dead. The

Even before it i knew this place was clueless about the world. Now with the question mark emoji you can see proof of how confused the majority are even with all of the instant information available online to them at their fingertips. Even moreso, we have AI to give you a simple summary of what's happening in the world and yet still people are just as lost as ever. Go ahead and give me the emoji I love the attention
