Today I Learned: Druff is really good at hauling away bodies
Jay-Z and Beyonce quietly funneled some money towards bailing out Baltimore Protesters

Over the past couple of years, Jay Z and Beyoncé have been criticised in some quarters for being an immensely wealthy, globally recognised power couple who don't do enough to help black communities. Well, maybe they just don't shout about it. In a series of now-deleted tweets, filmmaker and activist dream hampton says that the pair have used their considerable wealth to post bail for Ferguson and Baltimore protesters who were arrested after protesting in their cities.
Hampton may well have an insight; she ghostwrote Jay Z's 2010 memoir Decoded. She took to Twitter to defend Jay Z and Beyoncé against detractors who repeatedly claim that the power couple do not do enough to help black rights.
"I am going to tweet this and I don't care if Jay gets mad", hampton begins. "When we needed money for bail for Baltimore protesters, I asked hit Jay up, as I had for Ferguson, wired tens of thousands in mins [sic]."
"When BLM (Black Lives Matter) needed infrastructure money for the many chapters that we're growing like beautiful dandelions, Carters wrote a huge check… and more stuff, too much to list actually, that they always insist folk keep quiet."
Hampton didn't elaborate why the couple choose to keep things quiet, but she continued to tweet until she says she got a text saying "shut the fuck up and come to brunch", presumably from Jay himself. Later on, she deleted the tweets, noting:

Boy wants a car from his dad,
Dad says: First you gotta cut that hair.
Boy says: Hey dad, Jesus had long hair.
Dad says: That's right son--Jesus walked everywhere.
So... Mad Men. Everyone is wondering how it's going to end?

On a dumb/random note, I just put a pound of apple smoked bacon on a cookie sheet, sprinkled brown sugar on all of it, and at the entire thing in 10 minutes.
I hate myself and want to vomit.
Cheer up Drk.
