My Wish for a Christmas Miracle
Today, on Dec. 25 2017 – also known as Christmas – I’d like to rehash a little story for you all, leading into my wish for a Christmas miracle.
Approximately one week ago, James Brown, host of “The NFL Today” on CBS, tweeted out some adult content.
“Sexy little brunette bitch sucking and fucking her personal trainer’s big cock!” Brown allegedly wrote, along with including a link to the video.
The tweet remained up for a whole 15 minutes before it was finally deleted. The internet has endless grabs though, don’t worry.

In the aftermath, Brown acted surprised and claimed that his account was “hacked.” Though there are no shortage of “Here’s how to crack whatever!” services and sites available at the tip of your fav search engine, no one seems to believe Brown was actually hacked.
Here’s the thing. Maybe Brown was hacked, maybe he wasn’t. Regardless, if you consider the immediacy with which many news outlets felt compelled to gleefully report on said possible hack, my issue with this comes clear: It’s about the porn shaming.
Imagine a world where Brown could have just tweeted a response like: “Whoops, I accidentally posted something I was looking at in another window – v. focused elsewhere, y’all. But when my *head cleared* 15 minutes later, I noticed my gaff. #delete #sorrynotsorry”
My Christmas miracle wish is, obviously, for the world to take it down a notch on the porn shaming, which is ultimately just a type of sexuality shaming. But though I know for a fact that I’m on the nice list, I’m not holding my breath.
