I'm rereading my comment. Yeah. I'm actually cringing at my grammer fuck-ups. And this is why I don't write on here often. :/

But, but...they cast a black as Nick Fury, so, uh, you're being reverse racist and PC, and something to do with the First Amendment.
I understand the defensiveness (you would not believe all the shit I got about living in the south when I moved to Chicago, from white people mind you), but as a black woman who has lived in Shreveport, LA, since I was 6, then Chicago, then moved to Texas, I can honesty say I haven't had too many good experiences with…
Thank you for the complement, but I suck at arguing about race and feminism, I'm still learning about everything. You made your point a lot than I could.
Even if they didn't like her, Jezebel is about the worst place to go if your looking for a nuanced discussion about race and racism. Even the idea that a lot of readers are getting their ideas of feminism from Jezebel and xojane is troubling enough as is.
Thank you for better expressing what I felt watching this video. I'm more bothered by that than whether or not I'm too old for this style of music or the video. I guess this is a trial version of her love of "hood" music. But you know no one gonna write an article about her appropriation on here because it's Jezebel,…
I feel like I'm in some ladyblog click-bait Inception. Y'all dirty for this one.
I'm so damn disappointed. I love Serena so much and have always looked up to her, I wonder if that's the Jehovah Witness in her talking. She's been through so much with people attacking her looks, (btw, I wish Jezebel commentators would make their point that what she said is horrible without the whole "Serena looks…
It took one person SIX viewings of Hunger Games to see that Rue was black? Interesting...
You're NOT a Person of Color, so how about not assuming how we feel about an issue that affects us. One doesn't need to do anything special just because a work of fiction might call for a POC. As long as the writing is good, there's no reason to feel insulted. Considering the amount of that Donald Glover got at the…
I need to give this article a proper reading, but years of wearing crappy bras after I gained a bunch of weight have left me with grooves in my shoulders. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? The grooves are so deep that any bra (well-fitted or not) goes right down in there causing the groove to get deeper and…
Oh yeah, I remember now! That was so unsettling and plain sad. The whole thing felt...unnecessary, and what a waste of a good actress. Hearing her beg and plead and mentioning her child, just made me want to cry. Shelley's amputation and death was another shocker for me, but at least that has a point to it. The…
Hey now, some of us greys are good people. :) I don't engage in that nonsense.
That sucks to hear, but I'm not surprised. It seems as though this current crop of shows on air that handle sexism or are sympathetic to feminism, are terrible when dealing with POC. I'm not too familiar with his shows besides American Horror Story and, yeah, the way Alma was handled towards the end of AHSA was a low…
Is anyone else excited at the more diverse cast for American Horror Story: Coven? Hopefully, it doesn't all boil down to, "Black people = Voodoo". I ate up Asylum, but was disappointed that the subject of medical testing done on people of color (Miss Evers' Boys, the experiments done on Guatemalan prisoners, etc. )…
Excellent Point! Thinking about your comment actually makes me feel a lot better about myself, though depending on the picture Gabi can appear to look smaller or bigger. When I used to heavily follow a lot of those bloggers, I'd get self-conscious, because I rarely put off looks as well as they do and fashion blogging…
*Sigh*
Try Monif C. She does a swimsuit collection every year. I don't know much about the quality of them though. I wanted to buy one this year, alas, I'm broke as a joke.
Really, girl, really. :/ It's too much trouble to pay all that money for things from them, wait a good two weeks for it to arrive (unless I use express shipping), and then see that most of the clothes look pretty low quality in personal, are too big/small, and pay more money to have the things I really like tailored…
Fucking YES! It's annoying because a lot of the fat fashion bloggers can pull off their stuff really well and I get so damn frustrated! I ordered one of those cute animal print button-up tops from them, I can't wear that shit five damn seconds before it explodes with wrinkles and I look like I've been rolling around…
