Food: Republic Of Booza Serves 500-Year-Old Ice Cream (Video)

Looks more like taffy than ice cream. But if they say it’s ice cream… Okay. In fact, the Instagram page (here) says it is the ORIGINAL ice cream.

(Now, I admit, it does look tasty; whatever it is.)

There Are Almost 8 Billion People On Earth. But How Many Is Too Many? (Video)

PBS picks up the conversation topic Bill Gates was speaking on in the post on here from a couple of weeks back – overpopulation.

Is overpopulation real? Is Earth filling up with too many humans? How many people can Earth hold, anyway? As our species approaches 8 billion, human overpopulation is a major concern for many people.

Documenting The Struggles Of Black Winemakers In Oregon In “Red, White & Black” (Trailer)

A real Oregon wine story. More compelling than it sounds on the first read. And once you check out the trailer above, you can support the effort at http://www.redwhite-black.com/about.html

Red, White, and Black highlights the lives of minority winemakers who have begun changing the face of Oregon’s winemaking culture. This documentary delves into the challenges and accomplishments of winemakers of color and the LGBTQ community who have traditionally been excluded from the predominantly White, high-brow industry. This is a story about entrepreneurs of different backgrounds who have removed barriers in pursuit of their dreams thereby closing the narrow opportunity gap in Oregon. Despite the gravity of Red, White, and Black’s content, this documentary delivers with an upbeat tone, a cadence of storytelling and camera work that helps to uplift the consciousness of its viewers, its wine drinkers, and dreamers alike.

‘Donald Trump’ x ‘Robert Mueller’ – “It Wasn’t Me” (Video)

Wowww. Maybe setting all this political craziness to music can make it better. So James Corden did that here. Presenting a visual… Trump to Robert Mueller: “It Wasn’t Me” (with Shaggy no less, the dude that did the song originally).

“It Wasn’t Me” with Shaggy as Trump and James as Robert Mueller is exactly what the world needs right now.

Maino | Freestyles On Flex | Freestyle #104 (Video)

Maino got bars! And Flex got apologies for anyone ‘in their feelings’ who got hurt by them (guess they can still go dance over and ask ‘KeKe’ if she loves them though). HAAA!

They cracked the fourth wall and dropped the facade of ‘off top’ rhyming for this freestyle presentation (letting us see the ‘bloopers’), but still pretty good #ItsYourMain #MainoStillGotIt

The Strong Black Women Of Marvel’s Luke Cage (Video)

Mm mm mm! Lucky Luke Cage. That’s what they ought to call him in the series. Because in the show’s corner of the Marvel Universe, the women are CHOICE. Like Taster’s Choice. Like strong, sweet, Black coffee…

Yes, Black women are strong, but we also need space to be vulnerable.
Women who lead and love Marvel’s Luke Cage discuss turning their pain into power.
– Strong Black Lead

Oh, go binge Seasons 1 & 2 of Marvel’s Luke Cage (on Netflix) if you just missed that whole ‘coffee’ reference. In short, it’s code wording between Luke and the women he is going to ‘blend’ (ha)!
