So what you’re saying is we need a “Masked Belly” type of show.

You could... not watch it.  

I totally hear and respect this take. Thank you for sharing (honestly! I do appreciate it).

Also, while I’m at it:

Wait, are we really framing the attacks regarding her sleeping with Brandi as homophobic? My impression is that the other women were upset because Denise was clearly being a hypocrite and a liar, not that anybody cared that she was sleeping with a woman

BIPOC have historically tried to pass as white for a chance to live a life that was a little safer and better than their own. Then people like this come along and try to do the opposite to profit off the backs of BIPOC like it’s no big deal. Sometimes I really hate our world.

See, shit like this is absurd.

Bitch, I’ve been here longer than your ass but I actually have to do my goddamn job during the day so I can’t spend uninterrupted hours commenting on every goddamn story that’s fucking posted not that I owe you a goddamn thing about what I do and don’t do over here.

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed some of the show and absolutely loved the cast and the concept was really interesting. I’m also considering some of her female characters from In Treatment when I make this criticism. Having worked as a therapist, there are certain mental health issues that seem to be glorified or…

Except that Sarah Treem was not even the person who talked to Lena.

Well yeah, when you’re the show runner and it’s your show and you feel it should be written a certain way, ultimately actors can either accept the character the way it’s written or they can quit, which Wilson did. Sometimes I think it comes down to chemistry between showrunners and actors and some working…

I recommend Rothy’s. They are the first pair of flats I’ve been able to comfortably wear ever in my life - no heel scraping!

I am dead serious about helping you develop this system. It’s hell trying to describe the escalation scale when a micro aggression hits regular ol’ aggression and plows right through to super-ultra bitch I have bail money catch these hands. Like a point system? A racism detecting wand? I want to be able to pat down a…

As someone who is bicultural and can be both oppressor and oppressed depending on the sitch

I think I’m going to develop a browser add-in that replaces the word “racism” with “racialized prejudice + power”.

Sure it might come with some internal psychological trauma and probably some sort of karmic retribution, but wouldn’t it be fun as shit to just sit around all day and deny loans and stuff to White folks?

The Clapback Mailbag needs a fill up.

Yes, it would have been better.

I saw the statement in Facebook right after it was posted, didn’t even think about the SOTU. I liked the statement, I understood her reasoning and her regret. She makes no bones about the fact that hindsight is 20/20, in fact she devoted one of many paragraphs to that idea.

Yep. I want somebody different. If Sanders run his punk ass better run as an Independent. Don’t be piggy backing and using the Democrats when you see fit.
