October is about to bid us farewell, but not before we bring you the best tweets of the week!
Folks were shook when viral sensation Brother Nature's old tweets were discovered. In case you missed it, the posts saluted Hitler, called JAY-Z a monkey, praised Chris Brown's treatment of Rihanna and were generally racist, anti-Semitic and misogynistic. TMZ has them in full. Like any internet tragedy, Twitter turned the whole thing into a hilarious meme.
If Brother Nature wants to be redeemed he has to beat up the sting ray that killed Steve Irwin. Period.

While we're on the subject of disappointment, imagine being in the hospital, at your most vulnerable, and having a nurse who doesn't even have the common courtesy to hook you up with some intensive wig care.
I passed out and not one nurse thought they should put my wig back on for me. It was literally laying right next to me when I woke up lmaoo this is medical malpractice

On the flip side, as with every Halloween, there were reminders that the blackface jig is up, racist white folks.
You will see white ppl smear on dark brown face paint to portray Black celebs who are almost as light as they are. Easy confirmation that blackface on Halloween is not about spoofing the celeb/character in as much as it’s about reveling in the same ol’ racist caricatures.
