I came to this article hoping in some way to talk to other black people about a show I enjoy. A show that I enjoy. A show that I enjoy despite the fact that they have no black people or people of color save for those two light skin possibly mixed race characters who are slaves, (freed.) Now here michael wrote and has…

The system that was in place in Africa pre-european contact was a vastly different system than the one Europeans use. It’s disingenuous to do the whole pointing fingers “They did it first bullshit.”

Season 4-6 fans: GOD why is everyone TALKING can we speed it up already I don’t need THREE EPISODES of an army marching!

I’ve been finding all the comments about the timelines so tedious. At this point I don’t need three episodes of Jon and Davos on a boat or full sieges of both Caterly Rock and High Garden. I would much, much rather the show spend the few remaining episodes on extended scenes like Dany and Jon or Cersei and the…

The time thing is something people need to get past. GoT doesn’t spell it out for you but between scenes there can be literally days/weeks/months. We are use to stories being done in a linear fashion. Each thing happens after the next and if there is a huge time jump, something on the screen pops up to tell us. …

Cersei was not innocent... take a seat.

Ugh, Euron. This show can’t seem to survive without having a savage male villain to chew the scenery in the most over-the-top way. Viserys is nasty, but oops, he’s dead, so here’s Joffrey. What a vicious little beast, amiright? But oops, he’s dead, so here, have a torturing sociopath named Ramsay. But oops, he’s dead,…

I mean, the same can be said about drug use in movies, but nobody was accusing Requiem for a Dream of glamorizing drug use. I guess it depends on whether you show the behavior as leading to a happy ending or not.

Eating disorders are seductive. Any movie that wants to deal with the reality of an ED is going to glamorize them de facto because the warped perception is that they are glamorous. We can say that only the sufferer thinks it’s glamorous, but the popularity of Kate Moss’s, “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels” as…

His voice went up 3 octaves.

The windows weren’t too dark to see a black lady driving a nice car.

Exactly.

Welp, there go scallops out of my diet! That’s about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.

They’re just the most adorable things ever.

Yeah, scallops can swim...

It’s like an adorable little makeup compact come to life.

I enjoyed him! He’s very charming!

Always happy to have a perfect opportunity to link my all time favorite video game glitch. SEAAAANNNNNN

I think in most cases I would agree. In this case, however, I feel like this woman just wants to get this whole thing behind her and get on with her life. As the court continues to fight this, I expect it continues to bring up the trauma over and over. When the case first happened, I’m all for the court pursuing it to…

I was just looking through the comments, wow y’all are salty.
