Auntie Angela’s revelation is shocking since she’s a beauty icon and both Alfre and Viola touched upon the fact certain roles they were discouraged to pursue because they were for a pretty Black woman. And I know they were talking about the parts Angela usually gets. Without explicitly implicating her as a problem…

This is basically my response whenever anyone expresses sympathy for the “lost careers” of the sexual harrassing jerks of metoo - think of the hundreds of women’s careers that were lost, all of the genius voices we never heard, the great stories that were never told because of one privileged, law-breaking,…

And now I’m having some tears well up in my eyes.

Probably unrelated.

I’m having “Where the Red Fern Grows” flash backs.

But I don’t have to outrun the tiger. I just have to outrun you.

Our bodies are not built to fight large cats. We have thin skin that doesn’t do a good job protecting our vitals from large claws and huge teeth. We’re good at problem solving and throwing things, and we’re built to do some physical things quite well, but fighting large cats and bears is not what we excel at.

It’s just enough to drive a modern person mad to listen to these incels from the internet area ensconced in their comfortable secure lives complaining about the fact that they’re discriminated against because they don’t have enough sex. It’s like, Jesus get a hobby. For Christ’s sake, you — you — ”

I remember reading once about people who murder their own children that men often perceive it as an entitlement thing, where they (or the partner he’s usually getting revenge on) deserve it. While mothers who kill tend to see it as doing a “favor” to the children so they don’t have to grow up in whatever fucked up…

LOL “trained MMA Fighter or soldier.” It’s like grade-schoolers wrote this.

Also note that this bike path was in ANACOSTIA. If someone is THAT freaked out by a preppy black man with a baby, how do they ever leave the house?

NextDoor is absolutely crucial for determining which of your neighbors to avoid. It’s actually good at the opposite of what it was intended for, although frankly I’m wondering if it was intended for raising lynch mobs and arguing about dogs pooping on your lawn and less about neighborliness.

If I have a literal brain chemistry issue that I have to deal with and I’m able to overcome, then you should be able to pass a black man on a fucking bike path in broad ass daylight and not feel so “uncomfortable” that you have to call the police. Get over it, Becky.

A put this in the other article, but I’ll put it here too.

Some years ago, I attended a conference for work in which I instantly fell in love with one of the presenting physicians. He was one of those mind-bogglingly fit ageless dudes who is perpetually tan and in better shape at 65 than I was at 25, with a brilliant mind, obvs, and charisma to boot. He had a fab silver beard…

“Horton, Here’s a Poo!”

at this point in my life, the thing I love most about this, and i love Keanu and I’m psyched that Winona has a romantic lead, is that Winona is only 7 years younger than Keanu and not 20.

As far as I can tell, couples still invite big groups to destination weddings, but don’t expect most of them to come. It’s a way to cut down the guest list while still getting a buttload of presents.

I generally hate romcoms because they are so often beige and involve crises of stupidity where everyone acts like utter morons who forget how to ask and answer a straightforward question.

I love this graphic because it really does expose the “not all white people” for a lie.
