Right? Sometimes I see marauding bands of wild turkeys here in New England and it’s like a pack of raptors patrolling the early dawn.

Now I am insanely stoned, and I’m enjoying the fuck out of it. Sure, it treads well-trodden territory, with the smartass mother and workplace shenanigans, but the characters are charming and all the actors seem like they’re having a blast, the handling of the guard’s PTSD and introduction to weed (spoilers, I guess?)…
A classic example is how they insist on wanting to say the n word because some black people use it. If you call your wife honey do you feel okay with your friend calling her honey? No, not so much. But all bets are off when Black people try to own anything; our words, our property, our work, our own god damn bodies.
Lil Kim needs to turn off the Fawcett, because the sink is overflowing.
But, as a person with BDD, I think the other element at work here is likely Body Dysmorphic Disorder.
It’s just the classic hip hop wish fulfillment fantasy of opulence and money, just transported to a more contemporary, exotic setting.
Actually, I believe his sister either fell ill or died, and he retired to be there for her kids instead of being on the road. It was a sad story. He had the perfect charisma to become a big star in the WWE.
I certainly won’t argue that wrestling is full of racist content and a lot of crowds tend to give them a lot of leeway when it comes to it, but I think it’s also worth mentioning that most crowds tend to have no trouble embracing black wrestlers, the few times they are actually allowed to shine, and that’s been the…
Yes, this. The history of wrestling and race is absolutely fascinating, from how white 1960's Memphis star Sputnik Monroe fought (and struck big victories against) segregation to more complicated issues like the Kamala or Saba Simba type gimmicks.
You can be catholic and love making bombs - just ask the IRA.
Nah, it’s called a cheat day.
I know we often talk about Daenerys and her privilege dragons, but if our Jon Snow wasn’t lollygagging in the parking lot, one of the dragons wouldn’t have taken a stray bullet to the chest and might still be alive today
Your situation sucks, and it really kinda sounds like you should consider getting out.
Does anyone think that big walking cold sore Stephen Bannon willfully let go of the most powerful position he will ever hold?
Yeah, unfortunately, if all the bad guys wore white and carried confederate flags, they’d be easy to spot. The real, insidious racists are the guys like the idiot who was identified in the Charlottesville march who said he’s not “one of those angry racists” or whatever, because he probably doesn’t believe he (clearly)…
You would be incorrect, as of 2014:
Shit, you’re right. Can I do one last John Cleese “don’t talk mention the war” gif?
Now, I’m not saying Mace Windu shouldn’t have done more shit, but Force Awakens was hardly the first to feature a black guy, and the OT features Leia going from privileged bureaucrat to badass rebel general... People focus on the gold bikini, but forget that Leia very symbolically used her own chain to kill the main…
Fuuuuuuck, the first black girl I dated used to get so much shit from people around her (black and white) for being “too white” for not fulfilling enough SASSY LOUD GIRL stereotypes and enjoyed reading, comics and nerdy stuff. She taught me a lot about racial expectations and how they come from all sides.
