What a treat this show is. I didn’t think it’d keep me interested because it’s so campy, but that campiness endeared the show to me and I suggest it to anybody I know who may be in the same boat I was.

Meanwhile, over on Z-Nation. . .

I’m an officer in the military, working in the very short-staffed field of cybersecurity. I’ve taught at my service’s military academy and made quite a career for myself, even though I’m still fairly junior ranking. I’ve done well by any measure. I’m also an immigrant and a person of color.

Fuck you Susan. Have a nice roll in your cash as you watch us poor women go bankrupt then die from cancer.

My experience with Delta, as a brown lady. Three years ago, flying from a meeting in Detroit to SF, standing in the premier line. Gate agent repeatedly tries to shoo me out of the line a good 10 minutes before boarding was going to start. Mind you he approached none of the other (white, male) passengers in the…

Don’t you know that if a white person doesn’t say the “N-word” they’re not racist? Racism is name calling ONLY. “Yeah, I mean, all I did was deny their basic rights and human dignity. You guys are acting like I called them mean names or something”

Please please Mark Cuban. I’ve never asked you for anything. This is all I want.

And when someone takes a character that doesn’t have to be white (like Queen Elizabeth I would have to be) and makes them a minority, white people freak out. I’m white and I’m really tired of seeing white people on everything. I work with kids and I want all of my students to see themselves in characters. UGH! 

It’s a made up story/movie about children with superpowers who live on an island in a time loop, managed by a woman who turns into a bird and the thing you find unbelievable is that people of color existed in the UK in the 40's?! Oooooookay.....

I’m still tickled that going on 60 years later, an offshoot genre from one of the most racist periods in American history is still the go-to standard for white people of every age as the gold standard for everything Black culture. As if Shaft was the pinnacle of African American achievement. It is our one sacred cow,…
