It was exhausting. Not Zack Snyder exhausting but it was a lot of work to get through. And like you, I was ready for it to end. Nolan’s Batman movies, regardless of quality, were not a chore for me to watch.

This is closer to what I thought the term meant. The “I am not like other girls” chick.

The influx of gay people in depressed neighborhoods is the first step in the gentrification process. Once the black people are displaced and the area becomes palatable for developers it is time for the gays to go. LGBTQ people are both perpetrators and victims of gentrification.

How many of these dudes does he have to hang out to dry before they learn?

Right there with you. It is exhausting. We are more than the struggle. Even in genre entertainment (Black Panther, Falcon and Winter Soldier) we got to examine the struggle when the protagonist is a black person. Not to diminish what we go through, but I wake up many a days with very little concern about what white

The Lena Dunham.

She is obviously faking it. Her face says, “you dumb asses.”

Years ago, a friend who drove Uber in Atlanta picked up a CNN producer and she gleefully told him that cable news is not about reporting the news it was about creating the best narrative to generate ratings.

Works elsewhere.  The ruling class of Saudia Arabia have been doing for years. 

Her significance to the Halloween franchise has been inflated after the fact.  Trading Places made her a name.

That’s all we got.  Social media snark while they take over the world.

Whether she stays with him or not is none of my business. That said, why are so many dudes defending him? Journeyman player who landed the head coaching job at a storied franchise and went to the NBA Finals his first year fucks up what looked to be the start of a very lucrative career that would have surpassed

Thank you.  This writer’s narrative is silly as hell.

I didn’t even know what that meant (or cared enough to find out) until today. My white people fact of the day. Looking back, a lot of people use it without really knowing what it means.

I love Last Week Tonight. At times it is hard to watch because we humans are just the worst, but it has become an important part of my life.

I am all for representation in media (black dude here) but it is distracting as hell when it comes to this plot point and would just rather everybody involved be the same race.  I chuckled when Aegon said “look at them.”  No shit dude.

It isn’t what he will do if elected that is the problem is if he gets elected it might give the Democrats a type of candidate that they may struggle against in elections.  Not that Democrats ever pay attention to what works.

He scares them. He is a brand of Democrat they haven’t seen in a while. He won’t play nicely. The worry is that if he wins, it will inspire more candidates like him.  Nothing about him screams “liberal elite.”

I know she is a favorite fan on here, but Sarah Sherman is more miss than hit with me. I appreciate the risk taking but some of her stuff is just off-putting. Being a sharp contrast to something that isn’t particularly good doesn’t automatically mean good.

Exactly. The one place on the Black Progress Index that I am familiar with is just a wealthy area that black people of a certain social economic level can afford to live. A friend coaches AAU girls’ basketball there and all the kids (black and white) come from wealthy families.
