I was all ready to storm in, guns blazing, in defense of Wonder Woman but after perusing the article, I’m...not quite sure what question is she’s even being asked, or even what the point is she’s trying to get to, really, and ended up realizing the flow of the conversation seems really strange and almost, in a way,

I’m not going to suddenly agree with you that it’s not blackface because he’s a complete derp who clearly didn’t take a look at his photo for more than three seconds and think “hm, there might be something problematic with this.”

Um.

Yeah, you’re not wrong, I didn’t phrase that sentence well.

The only possible explanation for those lips that I can see is that he called it “Jacklyn Jaws” and so MAYBE he thought...lipstick. But why not put lipstick on the actual shark’s mouth?

....

If he wanted to make himself up as the “black inside the shark’s mouth”, that doesn’t explain those overly bright red lips. That’s the (pardon the pun) red flag right there. If he’d painted his entire face solid black, he might have an argument, but he didn’t.

Preach. Especially when other people in the same room are acting as though they see or hear nothing wrong about the situation at all.

You know what would help that mold problem?

I’m an apple shape and have to avoid skinny pants like the plague because they make me look exactly like a tomato on a toothpick and sack dresses make me look like a potato. If you’re an apple shape, look for A line dresses with an empire/gathered waist right below the boobs, it flatters everything good we have and

They’re probably the same people who tried to convince us “brown diamonds” were the new “super in” thing. Haha, nice try, I don’t think so.

I have zero sense of fashion but I’ve found cardigans help camouflage pretty much anything. You’ll have to pry the cardigans out of my cold, dead hands.

This is basically what I wear around the house, but only because nobody sees me in it.

No. Noooooo.

So BaSiCaLlY tHe ScRaPbOoKiNg VeRsIoN oF tHiS.  *shudder*

Holy crap you’re my new hero. I will be doing this now from here to eternity.

That’s exactly the situation I had in mind. I had to forward an email to my boss’s boss’s boss once, the email thread completely covered in blue gingham. I was mortified.

Oh yeah. And the colored, calligraphic signature that’s so stylized you can’t actually decipher their contact information unless you copy/paste it to another document.
