Yeah man, they just aren't there! They're hiring the best people for the job! And they're all white dudes!

It's funny, I have never liked him or enjoyed his movies, except Million Dollar Baby. As soon as I found out his horrible history with women, I was done forever. Ugh.
Reading his personal life section is...eye opening. What an immature asshole. The way he treated some of the women he was with is appalling.
Clint Eastwood: 7 children by 5 different women, some of whom he kept a secret because they were with his mistresses.
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit
AWWWW KITTEH!
Does anyone ever just get tired of being a woman sometimes? This last month in particular has taken such a heavy toll on me, to the point that these stories make me feel hopeless and sad and depressed. Doesn't help that I am realizing that my dad is not as much of a feminist as I thought he was all my life. My mom…
My dog's name was Maggie (of course), an American Eskimo, so she was suuuper fluffy. Hence some of these gems:
Digging that 'do!
They don't because they don't have to, that's the thing. Ignorant rudeness born of fitting in. It's appalling. I know there are plenty of people who would never ask a question like that, but then I know waaaay too many people (like my grandmother re: my biracial cousins...ugh she literally asked my dad "how dark are…
People who have no direct experience with racism or being the outsider. AKA most white people. I am white for the record before anyone bites my head off. But being an upper middle class white person, I never had to think about my privilege and right to exist in any space because it was such a given until I had friends…
Wait, Lorena Bobbit is a judge?
The second I saw that I had to stop reading. Couldn't continue.
The statement being a gif that said White Folk....?
....How?
Very, very sad ones.
No, I think she was being a parent looking for toys her daughter is interested in in their local toy stores. Star Wars isn't nostalgic, it's expertly marketed to the point that there have been new toys and collectibles since the movies came out 30 years ago. She's not "being lazy" for the Star Wars reference, she…
Well, apparently that wasn't the case for this woman. I don't know where she lives, I don't know what stores are available to her - her point was that her daughter only had that one version of Leia actually physically visible and present on a shelf, likely surrounded by male characters all portrayed as fully clothed,…
The author LITERALLY said "I know if I search on the internet, I can find a few female minifigs that aren't quite as awful, but why can't I see them in a toy store?"
Based on what she said, it sounded like they went to some stores and that was all she found with Leia included. Not that there wasn't overall variety, just no variety available for her daughter to find a female Lego character that wasn't in a bikini. I mean, I don't care enough about Star Wars to track down every…
