OPEN POST: Tiffany Haddish and (not THAT) Jason Lee Had a Baby

Image
Today in "WTF?", Tiffany Haddish looks to have had a baby with her friend, Jason Lee. The 45-year old comedian shared this photo to her instagram with the caption "Cat's out of the bag." This seems totally random, but the two had previously discussed their baby pact on Lee's Hollywood Unlocked podcast this past November. Lee, who is gay, expressed his desire to raise a child with Haddish but did not have any interest in conceiving the old fashioned way. It appears they have figured it out! Haddish has long expressed her desire to adopt a child, despite previous controversies that suggest she is a child abuser. In 2022, Haddish was sued by two anonymous plaintiffs who allege that they were groomed and abused by Haddish when they were children. The lawsuit was subsequently dismissed.  Well, this is certainly odd. I wish that baby luck. They're gonna need it! Source: Tiffany Haddish on instagram, Rolling Out

EVENING NIGHTCAP: Justin's Lame Lyme Excuse. Kim C Reacts To AJLT Cancellation.

Image
    ►Ever since kicking off his Forget Tomorrow  world tour to support his shitty album "Everything I Thought It Was", Justina Timberlake has been dragged by fans for faxing in his performance. Not even phoning it it like JLo at least does. Many fans claim he sang less than 25% of the time and instead had the audience sing while he was walking around the stage in the same manner I do when I'm visiting a garage sale. Fans became so fed up with Justin they started parodying him on Tik Tok. BTW, some of the skits are hilarious. Link to see them.  Justin also cancelled numerous tour dates and didn't rescheduled. He blamed laryngitis, bronchitis, or a back injury for those last minute cancellations. I think he threw a dart at a board and that was the excuse used. Fast forward to today: Justin shared he was recently diagnosed with Lyme disease and that was the culprit for his poor showmanship during his tour. Below is an image & clip of his Dublin performance.  ...

OPEN POST: Manor Music Monday With Aya & Monique & Catherine & More!

Image
Greetings, music hors, and welcome to another edition of Music Manor Monday. Hold tight as we skip-to-me-lou to the recent past, or the early 2000s, a time where you could whiz-bang down the street on Razor Scooters, sashay around in Heeleys , and blast irritating songs like "Hey Ya" by OutKast if you really wanted to work my last nerve. "Fo shizzle my nizzle," as the kids said back then. Right about that time, "nu jazz" - which blended jazz, funk, soul and electronica - reached an amazing creative peak. The heyday didn't last long, since the continued rise of Hip-Hop all but obliterated mainstream niche genres. It's a shame. There was an intelligence at work with nu jazz, which often took existing standards and souped them up to sometimes sublime effect. The long-running  Saint Germaine  series is a good example of this, where jazz tunes from the 1930s and 40s was reinvented, electro-jazz-style, "for the new millennium." Yet at its very ...

PECKERWOOD'S WEEKLY LUNOCRACY POST! For the Week of 8/04/2025

Image
The countdown begins! Only 3 years and 6 months are left in Dump's Presidential term. A mere 15 months and 6 days are left till the midterms, which can potentially kneecap the remainder Dump's Presidency going forward. But do you think this will actually happen? What with voter ennui, illegal redistricting and the failure of "youth" to even bother showing up at the polls (the kids are not alright )? I'm optimistic by nature, but even I'm doubtful. In the meantime, here are some horrifying and hilariously horrifying stories you might have missed this past week. 1. Disabled voters aren't known to be MAGA devotees, so MAGA is planning ahead. MORE HERE. 2. Geoffrey Hinton, an AI pioneer, says there's a 10-20% chance that AI technology "will end in human extinction." That's not good, right? MORE HERE. 3. Speaking of AI, why did AI break up with the sushi chef? It said he had too many raw emotions. Oh, hahahahahaha! Also, be afraid. Be very ...

OPEN POST: Sunday Comics With The Boondocks!

Image
"Jesus was black, 9/11 was an inside job, and Ronald Reagan was the devil." "I'm gonna find me a white man and lie to him right now!" These are just two memorable quotes from a short-lived comic strip which left a scorched-earth impression - one that people are still talking about. Before it was an animated series that got a little too real on Adult Swim, "The Boondocks" was ruffling plenty of feathers as a nationally syndicated comic strip. From 1999 to 2006, creator Aaron McGruder launched a full-scale assault on...well, just about everything, including Black culture, conservative politicians and generalized idiocy in American society. It was essential reading for me, since it didn't hesitate to skewer the deserving, and with arguably more daring, more bite and more spit-taking humor than the politically-prevaricating, libertarian "South Park," which started airing only a few years before on Comedy Central. The strip introduced Huey Fr...

Post A Pup Sundays: Rescued Puppy! Post Your Pups!

Image
  There’s a special kind of beauty in a rescue dog—the kind that says, “I’ve been through it… and I still love with my whole heart.” You can see it in their eyes: the resilience, the softness that survived the storm, the cautious hope that maybe this time is forever. They don’t love you because they have to. They love you because they chose to, despite everything. And that, my friend, is the kind of love that wrecks you in the best way.

Saturday is Caturday! BLACK PANTHER: GHOST CAT OF THE JUNGLE, GODDESS OF THE SHADOWS! Post those kit kits.

Image
  There is no such thing as a Black Panther. That’s what the biologists will tell you. And technically, they’re right. "Black panther" is not a distinct species. It’s a title, like a crown passed down through bloodlines and shadows. The name is used to describe melanistic leopards in Asia and Africa and melanistic jaguars in the Americas. The sleek black coat comes from a recessive gene mutation that causes an excess of dark pigment, cloaking the animal in what looks like pure midnight. But look closely, and you’ll see the ghost of rosettes hiding beneath the darkness—a secret print on a secretive animal. They are not the norm. They are not common. And that’s precisely the point. Black panthers are nature’s rare rebellion. The statistical anomaly that survived. Like the underdog who didn’t just make it out of the gutter, but did so in silk and silence. Most people have never seen one. Not in the wild. Not even in zoos. Melanism is rare: about 11% of leopards and jaguars carry...
