all of the ppl in this story are degenerates of the highest degree tho
It's just an interconnected community of black people on twitter.
That was a crazy ass ride. Whole thing is fucked up, true or not, but the fact she posted recent pictures of both Jarrett and Jess, with actual FB info too, is really shitty. Like Zola is obviously not the greatest person since she was more than happy to pimp Jess out for some easy cash and stick with all this shady shit until someone got shot in the face, but posting the story online and with recent pictures and info is real fucked up.
One thing to tell a crazy story and shit, but these people's lives sound pretty fucked up as it is. They don't need the whole internet crawling up their ass, especially if both seem to have moved on and gotten their lives together a bit since then. And even if it is all made up and fake, then whoever these two people she posted pictures of and info about definitely don't need whatever attention is now coming their way.

Ah, I don't live in the US. My mistake.

The opposite of White Twitter, where white people tweet about antiquing and recipes involving mayonnaise.

Yeah, I recently found out it also stands in for drug dealing. It's no longer a crack house, now it's a trap house.

Not sure about the veracity of the story, but people sure live in some fucked up situations...

I visualized this whole story with Michael Mann directing in the style of Collateral. It was awesome.

"Turn a trick" is a phrase for prostitution like as old as time.
I guess "trap" is the new hotness but also sounds like it's used for drugs too.
Naomie Harris as Zola
How many explosions am I getting out of this?

my posts are "MEH"
Wasn't really entertaining imo.... typically bs
Running out of the building near the end would somehow turn into a 15 minute car chase sequence with Bay at the helm. I wouldn't mind it a bit.

Michael Cera must play Jarret. Or Drake.

Ok, and I wasn't trying to judge anyone who found it funny. I laughed out loud as much as anyone else. But then I realised I was laughing at horrible misfortune. Jess is a mother. And she could have gotten killed at any time during this. It just feels wrong for me, a privileged white Swedish male, to be laughing about such a horrible situation. You know what I'm saying?
Who's going to be the first internet news source to rewrite this for the clicks? How long until Wired/The New Yorker writes a full piece on "the story/where are they now/how are they doing now that the story is out? Is this cyber bullying?" Article

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
I feel like I owe Zola money. I don't even care if the story is real, this was absolutely riveting.
And, it did have a strong female lead. Zola was not about to get turned out, and she made relatively smart decisions to stay out of danger. Problem is, when you're around people in this game, you constantly get into stuff.
We even got the foreshadowing at the shitty motel when Jarret was talking to the dread-head and Z told him off.
Honestly, I found Pain & Gain more tasteless than this story. Z shot the dude with dreads in the face for trying to rob them AND kidnapping Jess. I read about the true story behind Pain & Gain and their victims were way more innocent than anyone that got hurt here. I know it doesn't make any of it "right" but that's how I responded to it.
EDIT: Also there is probably some bias working on my part. I haven't met people quite on this level, but I met some ones that were close and caught up in the game.

More than the amount that happened inside Jarrett's woman.
Yup, even visualized some shots of Zola running in digital.

Prostitution, rape, murder, and kidnapping are funny now?
I know what you're saying, but Jess chose her own fate. Most of us have enough individual autonomy to make decisions.

And we've come full circle, folks.
Starring Rosario Dawson, Eva Green, Michael Cera, and Jada Pinkett Smith and Djimon Hounsou (for those who don't know the name, black guy from Guardians of the Galaxy). Directed by Quinten of course!

Lee Daniels is 30 pages deep on an adaptation right now.
Anything can be funny. But I've got a pretty dark sense of humor compared to most people, so I might be alone on this.
