Frank Ocean Did It Again

Is Boys Don't Cry the new Detox?

Frank Ocean Did It Again

Dang it, Frank Ocean. Why must you do this to your fans over and over? For more than a year now, Frank Ocean has been teasing his supporters with talk about releasing a new album. Since his very popular Channel Orange album came out, people were constantly inquiring when he was going to be making new music. Near the end of 2014, Ocean announced the start to his new album Boys Don't Cry, which was suppose to be released in July 2015.

It is now the middle of August, three years after his first album and more than a year after his third album was suppose to be released and there is still no sign of Boys Don't Cry. Throughout 2016, Frank Ocean has said once a month, if not more, that he was going to release the album on "insert date here".


Frank Ocean has his website set up for the album (boysdontcry.co), but there are no obvious hints or samples of the music he has been working on and there is nothing that gives his fans a clue of when it will be released.

Last weekend the album was suppose to be released on August 5th, 2016, after Frank Ocean had posted a live stream with nothing but white noise playing in a place that looked like a warehouse. After many fans were disappointed with no sign of the highly anticipated album, Apple music released information on August 12th, 2016 that the album would be released within "the next 24 to 72 hours".

And just as many of us expected...there is still no new music. Now, almost three days after Apple said that Ocean's album was suppose to be out(again), there is not even a sample to be heard. Once again, supporters have been let down. Will Boys Don't Cry ever come out? Fans are becoming upset, but does that mean they will not buy his album or stop supporting him? Probably not. Ocean's Boys Don't Cry is slowly becoming the new Detox, an album which was never released by Dr. Dre.

Dear Frank Ocean,
Please stop playing these games with your fan's emotions. The constant anticipation and disappointment is all too much for us to handle.

Sincerely,
Your Loving Real Fans

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
