  • Where is Rory?!?

    Any other day one fans not a fan of Zip? I know y’all don’t read these, or take heed, but homie should be a once and awhile appearance. He’s mad off putting. A jail story every time he’s on the pod? And Mal just plays the role of putting the battery in his back. Thank GOD Demaris is there keeping some form of order.

  • Mal can’t hide his Tell

    Latest episode “Movin on up”, Mal acting as if he’s not bothered by Joe and the slight Joe gave him by explaining for the first 10 min of the episode of how he’s not bothered is hilarious. And Rory avoiding to bring up or talk about Joe because he’s lowkey cool with Joe and knowing Mal would go on another Rant about how he’s not bothered. Great episode tho lol
