There's nothing even remotely "country" about Beyonce's new music. In her mind, "going country" involves nothing more than dyeing her hair platinum blonde, wearing a cowboy hat to the Grammys, and adding a few fiddles to songs that are otherwise similar to her standard mediocre output...written by committees of professional songwriters/producers and for which she subsequently claims a writing credit for changing two words. The objection to Beyonce "going country" has nothing to do with "racism" and everything to do with her relentless mediocrity.
SC's first food truck park is open now in Simpsonville. Woo hoo! Portland, Oregon has two full separate city blocks dedicated to world cuisine. Tasty and affordable. Doesn't hinder enclosed sit-down venues. How about a temporary one in Bull Street District before future development? Oh, yum me!
The Tobors are back on Forest Drive! Thanks for letting them come out to play. it has been a long time.
Trump has insulted most of our world leaders BUT sucks up to Putin. It’s disgusting AND dangerous. Maybe he could set up another golf club in Russia and live there permanently!
And how do you know it's spring time? the squirrels are playing with their nuts. Yeah.
If Trump is elected he will not gently sail us down the river. He will full throttle, off shore power boat us down the river. No one can doubt he is a lying, cheating thieving bastard. How can so many Americans be so stupid not to see it?
After 3+ years of the Biden administration, I bet there are millions of Americans that now wish that January 6 had been more successful.
Streets in Earlewood have been ripped up for WEEKS. Part of Broad River Road that had been breaking down for a year was just repaired a couple months ago, and now it's torn up again. If this were Main Street, or Shandon, or Wales Garden, these streets would have been resurfaced within a day. "There's no such thing as systemic racism" - just keep telling yourselves that, thumbsuckers.
That moment when Free Times writes a story about meme lords in Columbia, SC, and doesn't even mention the best one going right now (colacopingsociety). Buncha squares at FT, I swear. 😂
Editor's rant:Â That moment when the writer of the meme piece reached out to the aforementioned account three separate times and never heard back :)
