I dont see the humor. A lot of Transgender people have been murdered this year. A lot of transgender people have been murdered.

She. Just she.

You can’t get sued for defamation for reporting what Tig Notaro said.

She is talking about someone who is SEVEN years old. No, that kid should not be spending that much time in front of a mirror. When I was seven, the only time I looked at one was when I was brushing my teeth and the mirror was right in front of me. Also, to check my hair.

When did selling out ever exist except for in the minds of naive people who think art can exist independent of commerce under a capitalist system?

So, what is it with period pieces that they absolutely MUST have an illicit affair? Maybe I’m a big, stuffy jerk, but can they not cover any other topics? It gets old after a while and I find myself losing interest in the whole genre.

Why? She was amazing in the Diary of a Teenage Girl. I honestly don’t understand the Jez hate for Kristen fucking Wiig (??).

Mamie Till, as far as I’ve read, was okay with an open casket at the viewing and the publication of pictures of Emmet’s body in effort to show the world what racist monsters did to her son. I did not read that she signed off on a white artist, decades later, making art of the image for money. I really don’t get how

As Roxane Gay pointed out, there are about a million more interesting alternative histories they could do. One where Reconstruction was actually completed would be interesting. Or if America had lost the Revolution (so slavery would have been outlawed much earlier). Or a million other things. Alternative histories are

You’d be amazed by how many are taking the “hey, but there are two black people here” bait.

What I find as an additional insult is their cries that, “Hey, it’s really okay, because we already brought on two black folks as writers/producers.” Ummmmm…and Agent Orange in the White House brought in Ben Carson’s ass. The involvement of TWO (or any) black people does not cancel out the fact that this was a

Watching pacifist Jimmy Carter just go apeshit on Trump would be immensely gratifying

Use all those hurt feelings for being judged for being a white woman to realize how lucky you are that “dense” is the worst thing people judge you for.

ALL OF THIS! And it’s especially offensive to me as a WOC. Because guess what, you Ivanka clones, my WOC ass and my POC friends and LGBTQ friends and non-rich friends (because like a normal person, 99.99% of my friends aren’t damn rich) don’t have the fucking luxury of “positivity.” Because the political situation is

“For now, the women are using their aggressive positivity to float above the negative press”

Embrace single payer, work for fairness in taxation, demand defense cuts, banking regulation, monopoly protections, campaign finance reform, union rights, voting rights, equality and protection for all citizens, immigration reform, demilitarization of the police, demilitarization of foreign policy, and for fuck’s sake

I’d also like white supremacists to suddenly realize the ills of racism, and for all wasps to magically transform into unicorns that shit gold coins.

If we don’t teach children to uphold the value of art, which is emotionally stimulating as well as thought-provoking, we are raising a nation of idiots.

oh jesus, they’re absolutely going to have “it’s not rape, they’re actually in love, she never said no” bullshit storylines. time to start drinking.

First of all, if you can’t even manage to get the announcement right then I don’t know what right you think you have to ask people to reserve judgement or have faith in you to get the actual show right. This is a tiny spec in a great big deal of what they’re creating and they botched it horribly.
