I saved a lot of money this season. I stayed home and off the computer all week. It was a 100% savings.

I work at a charity. We only managed to get one donation today. Other big charities do better but Giving Tuesday is not well known.

I keep hearing on the radio about how "small business Saturday was invented by American Express" & this shit gets more absurd every year...

It was. As a small business owner, SBS is our best day of the year (by a lot) and I am grateful they started it 10 years ago.

I'm just getting annoyed with having "buy stuff" screaming at me constantly. Sorry to humbug.

I bought a monster 4k tv. Justification is it's still 1/4 of the price of a proper projector install.

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

i was never a Fan oF your average household projector. The image quality is never crisp and vibrant

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Home units are all pretty low lumens and a 4k projector of quality will run a few k. Plus install time/costs. Even with an av background.

Non-profits use today as a fundraiser. Some companies will match donations. It’s a reminder to do good & help others or something.

pretty much the anti-black friday. The idea being to give something or do something for someone

Can we make it in August when I actually have money?

Anti-black? That’s not good...

Should be changed to Giving Thursday on Thanksgiving when you're thankful, not doing anything and have money.

I think it’s for charity.

If we're all selfish, sure. I had been thinking about donating, and when I checked on Tuesday what I was going to do was getting matched. 1/

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Having my donation be doubled made it an easy decision. 2/2

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

why wait for christmas to donate? You wanna talk about selfish, how about the other 11 months when those places are hurt for cash

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I don't wait for Christmas to donate, I was just saying that having my donation matched make it easy to pull the trigger on Tuesday.

As a non black person, who enjoyed Family Matters...will I like this show?

6 years ago | Likes 22 Dislikes 3

Yep! Lots of subtle moments and I love the surreal or awkward interactions in the show

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It's genuinely a well made show with great performances all around.

How is Family Matters even remotely related to Atlanta?

What? Is this a black show? I am neither black or American, I just thought it was a good show.

Do you like comedy mixed with good acting, heartfelt emotion, and some music?

Ew gross who looks for that in a show.

He said he liked Family Matters, so that's a no. Except for the music part, the Family Matters opening theme was straight fire "Days go by!"

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Family Matters, which ended like 20 years ago, is the only black tv show you can reference as liking? No, you provably won’t like Atlanta.

6 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 1

And I say that because Atlanta is steeped in references to black culture, which you likely won’t get if Family Matters is your 1 reference

6 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

Steeped might even be an understatement. There's alot that if you didn't live in or around it it'll just fly right over your head.

Everyone should watch Atlanta. Donald Glover said he wants to make "Twin Peaks for rappers" and he fuckin accomplished it. It's incredible.

I never know what to expect. One episode, I laugh, next I'm sad, next is nervous laugh, then I'm weirded freaked out laughing and confused.

Didnt know he had said that, makes a lot of sense. Nuanced characters and poignant social commentary in a truly bizarre show

Pretty on point, right?

I'm gonna watch it all again with that quote in mind, that's how on point it is.

I'm a little skeptical it reaches the weirdness of Twin Peaks. Seriously?

There's only one David Lynch... but man, Atlanta gets fuckin *weird*. In a good way.
