I’m curious about the relatively low rate among latinx doctors- I suspect the number is misleading- it doesn’t differentiate between white latinx and nonwhite latinx respondents. I’d wager the majority of latinx doctors are white latinx (Ted Cruz-type Cuban-Americans, for instance).

Wow. It was one thing to integrate Dr. Manhattan into the D.C. Universe- but at this point they’re essentially rewriting Watchmen itself. Writing what happens next eliminates all of the brilliant uncertainty of it’s conclusion- there’s no more ambiguity to Dr. Manhattan’s ‘nothing ever ends.’ Previously, the line…

I’ll always have a debt to this book; I grew up in a very white place (South Minneapolis) and reading her book in high school was the first time I was able to understand my loneliness racially.

Yeah I grew up in a pretty Muslim area (Twin Cities) and the NOI/5 Percenters are not even remotely considered a real form of Islam. The idea that Allah has chosen another prophet is pretty heretical.

You really think Roxanne Gay needs schooling on the nature of race in the US? Really?

The rational part of my mind wants Kilgrave to stay dead (dreams/psychosis appearances are ok) but can you imagine how awesome it would be if they made a villain counterpart show to the defenders starring Kilgrave, Fisk, Madame Gao, Black Mariah, and Cottonmouth (it’s a comic book show, he can come back too)?

Lol it’s actually promotional art by Nintendo for the DLC

This is some Littlefinger “chaos is a ladder” type of bull shit.

Great article! I was actually just doing some research on respectability politics in the writings of black queer female scholars a few months ago. Evelyn Hammonds is a great person to read if anyone in the comments wants more insight into these issues.

This and Dem Thrones are the greatest GoT supplement ever

In fairness to Nintendo, this is actually the standard way of dealing with this sort of issue across any device. It just happens to be tedious.

Idk if the Wildlings are rednecks- they and the north were the same back in the day- they’d be like Africans facing colonization (the wall and the watch).

I sort of assumed that calling him a meta human was meant to underline how impressive Batman is- despite have zero powers, everyone assumes he must have them because of his track record.

Probably a British thing.

One thing, which would be that class and race are not neatly separatable. You can’t separate black poverty from anti-black policing, for instance (imagine how much potential black wealth has been lost to mass incarceration). Furthermore, one of the most common vehicles of wealth generation is home ownership, but…

As a Japanese-American, i’d like to take this time to say ‘fuck you’ to all Weebs and Otaku.

With regards to Bran, I’ve been thinking he only crossed the Wall around the time Jon left for Dragonstone, maybe even later than that. Seeing as the the mark he got from the walkers let them invade the Three Eyed Raven’s place, I’ve got a feeling it will allow them to cross the wall as well- if Bran crossed before…

I know I’m being a downer, but how exactly are they ‘evil batmen’ if they are literally, obviously, evil versions of other heroes. Like dawnbreaker is evil green lantern- why call him an evil batmen? And what’s the point of having an evil batmen if you give the evil batman powers, thereby robbing him of Batman’s most…

Cage strikes me as a bit of a tragic figure; a mediocre artist who desperately wants to be greater than he is.
