My nine-year-old randomly asked about this movie the other day. I told him they canceled it, but it might show up on Netflix in a year or so (when I won’t have to endure it). I got out of the Minions and Angry Birds movies the same way.

I guess because it is possible to be a manicurist and not be Asian? Though an all-Asian cast would be interesting to watch, too, and would bring a different perspective to the show.

Karrueche Tran is half-Vietnamese.

I love Niecy Nash and will watch anything with her in it. That’s all I came to say.

The funeral and the fact that Mamie Till chose to have an open casket was a really big deal. I was at the African American History Museum and they have a room that is a recreation of the Till funeral (ironically the only part of the museum where you can’t take photos). Walking through it I couldn’t even bring myself…

Agreed. And she is usurping the larger narrative that Till’s own mother created — a painful and searing critique of racial violence — and justifying that silencing/flattening by saying, “I get to bc I’m a mom, too!”

Indeed, Schutz’s intention is largely meaningless in the face of the work. Schutz treats her source as simply an object; as a photograph rather than a record of a teenager murdered because he was black.

I’m gonna be honest. I don’t hear it at ALL.

Safe and basic choice.

I teach high school and I will NEVER break up a girl fight. Boys, just stand in between them, tell everybody to calm down, it’s all over. Girls have been planning this shit for MONTHS, they will bring up petty shit from like kindergarten and they are out to murder anyone and everyone in their way. NOPE.

Do you even hop hop? There are no high horses here. Sorry, that rational is applicable to plenty of situations, but ignoring the track or playing coy would be absolutely, categorically absurd in a rap battle. When you’re a rapper, and another rapper with juice in your city and/or with a national platform calls you…

I sort of still cannot believe Remy went there. As someone said earlier: “Remy shot her friend over an amount of money that was less than a quality weave installation..”

So in other words Nicki threw some shade, and Remy threw back the whole damn tree?

A legit female rap beef of this stature makes me think gender equality is possible.

You nailed his argument in the last paragraph

Sometimes I feel bad when the Beyhive locks on and drags a target. Not today.

As a black viewer of the show I am annoyed that they are being cutesey and dropping hints and yet I’m also excited because bitch this should have happened a long time ago give WOC our things damn it! Rachel is a joy to watch so I’m hella excited. I feel like they are telling it early so they can get quality guys in…

After 21 seasons, the producers should be fucking ASHAMED of themselves that it has taken this long!! Its almost annoying that they are making such a big deal about the announcement, when it should really be a “Hey America, we are the worst. We’re really sorry. We don’t even deserve Rachel”.  

If this had been a Taylor Swift or someone else who does indeed make everything about themselves, then I would kind of understand that perspective. But it was Adele, who isn’t particularly an attention whore, and would probably be quite happy to sincerely tell the whole world to go fuck themselves. So more likely she…
