She might not have consciously linked it to race but for Black women who deal with this kind of shit from white women all the time, we get it.

I’m all for forgiving people after they apologize but why did she need to bring up the Williams sisters in the first place? They weren’t nominated in her category. Why did she need to position it as they don’t have to compete against men like she does? She couldn’t direct her comment to the people who keep nominating…

Here I go Again is how I introduced my partner to the show because I knew he liked a good time loop episode

I had an ex that said they would rather have bad sex than no sex in context of us having a conversation. They felt like if any serious conversation happens (like addressing an issue) then sex won’t happen. I was firmly on the “I like to have sex when I’m in a good place with someone so I would rather have no sex than…

How long ago was the movie with Barbra made and can you think of more recent portrayals?

I think I will be adding “practicing black” and “practicing bisexual” to my lexicon, thanks! lol

It has already been pointed out that phobia in this sense doesn’t just mean hatred but also an irrational fear or dislike of a specific thing or group of people. This society is extremely fatphobic. Recently someone came up with an idea for a device that wires your mouth shut such that all you are able to eat is a…

I didn’t think the Spooner/Constantine combo would work for me but it did. Definitely happy to have Spooner on board. I think John using magic to wipe her memory kinda feels unethical to do to a coworker, especially someone with Spooner’s baggage.

I’m not sure many of the commenters here actually saw what happened. The match right before hers on the same court ended due to an injury also. The person playing against Federer slipped and hurt his leg. Serena also slipped on the court and seemed to twist her leg in a way that she just could not continue on. The…

It really has been a weird season. I’m not someone who enjoys horror/monsters and this season has been chock full of that

I’m still upset with how they rushed the ending of Picard. When he “died” and there was like 10 minutes left in the episode, I knew they’d bring him back but there was no way to emotionally land that when we all knew he’d be back in 5 minutes...

Weed is not a personality.

You can be a giant hoebag at any point in your life, just gotta take that first step.

I get the point you are trying to make but there are certain things people do that firmly put them in the bad column and there is no amount of “good” to wipe that out. I think the important part is continuing to do bad things to a group of people and hoping the good you do will make up for it. If you are an…

Ah, remember when twitter used to be wild but in a fun way...

It wasn’t that deep.

This would not have been an issue if she didn’t come out unprompted in support of her racist friend on twitter. She did not have to defend him on this topic but people like to create unforced errors for themselves. Unless Piers asked her to defend him on twitter, this would not have been an issue. She also didn’t have…

What else is a party on a plantation supposed to evoke? Choosing the theme to be Antebellum which conjures a specific image in mind and then add plantation...

This would mean there were 0 darker skin actresses that were as good? It was a non speaking role to portray the younger version of someone else. How was she the better actress when she did not even have to act in the role?

They have really good PR and lead with the pomp, circumstance and veneer of benevolence. I grew up in a former british colony and can tell you that their imperialistic tendencies and racism is carefully erased and it takes leaving such spaces to be able to interrogate on a larger scale the extent of their evil.
