Thank you! My mom has lived in the U.S. for over 40 years and still has an accent and issues pronouncing certain words properly. She can communicate effectively enough to have worked for two high profile U.S. Senators but people still try to dismiss her and often treat her like a second class citizen even though she

“Frank’s posted a plot-thickening, grammatically unfortunate statement.”

Sounds like the kind of moving company his character would hire. I'm so happy for his Emmy nomination though!

Her name might as well be Becky Smith.

This is not about politics. This is about equal consequences for racist behavior. If this was an Asian, Mexican, Caucasian or whoever saying the same exact words as Jesse Williams did, I would be against it and petitioned them to be fired if they did not suffer the same consequences as others have suffered for their

If they don’t call this technology “Googly Eyes,” they’re completely insane.

Portlander here. The holier than thou attitude that Portland has started to have about its progressivism is extremely annoying. It’s like: We’re cool with gay people and athiests but we are the whitest major city in America and are constantly giving our tax dollars to rich developers to gentrify poor neighborhoods.

Well yeah I think the issue is that they called it “British colonial themed” when like... you could just fucking call it “world fusion” or some shit. Colonialism did bring foods from all over the world closer to the Western Hemisphere, but it was exchanging way before that too. And since then. It just seems kind

I know right? And where was she when Hitler was at the height of his power? She never wrote a word about him. Left it all up to Chaplin.

Really, it’s less about being a racist than doing something racist. Good people make mistakes, sometimes racist ones.

Colonialism: conquering the majority of the planet for spices, then creating the blandest food on the planet.
