It upsets me that she gets all the hate she gets, despite the fact that anybody with eyes would’ve known she was as wrong as completely wrong could be for the role of Nina Simone, and that all happened because the wypipo who put together that natural disaster didn’t have anybody of color in the room who could say…

Rachel Dolezal is out here being a hot offensive mess on the one hand, but propagating my mixed race army on the other, so I am not always sure how to think of her--so I just tend to not think of her altogether. 

Politics is a world of smoke and mirrors not too different from that of acting. The former uses appearances to attain power, the latter fame and fortune. In the end, both careers are means to attain all the above. The realpolitik of the matter is mixed people can travel between worlds and define themselves however…

I was also nonplussed about the article you mentioned, and I remember reading that a ways back. I am sure that Peele’s experiences of being with a white woman directly factored into the premise and elements that made Get Out the success that it was. Had he not had those experiences, the story could have been vastly…

You are decidedly unimaginative for unicorn royalty.

this is exactly correct. and even The Root has published a story on black men dating white women and chose to lambast Jordan Peele, who is HALF black. just like i am HALF black, and therefore cunts of either race choose to decide whatever race they think i fit in depending on their current agenda.

i’m repeatedly “not…

He doesn’t look huge enough, though.

And Pecos Bill.

So, let me get my lightskint thoughts in order here. Barack is half black, and half white, yet is considered the first black president—and not one eyelash was batted. He chose to round up, as it were. As is his prerogative.

One of our best family friends was the illustrator for Hanna Barbera. Boy howdy did he became a curmudgeon when people started using computers to do the drawing.

Race be damned. He would be kick ass as Paul Bunyan.

Another white guy from the Gawker migration and I would also 100% watch him as Paul Bunyan. In my head when I read the stories as a kid, I always imagined someone like Michael Clark Duncan. Just an imposing mountain of a man. The Rock just has never looked stern enough to  me.

As a white man who stumbles onto this site occassionally thanks to Gawkmodo linking, I would watch the hell out of the Rock as Paul Bunyan just to see him wrestle a big blue ox. That would be perfect.
I also loved the John Henry story as a child - but agree Dwayne Johnson is probably not the right man to play the part.

They used to show this to us in assembly when I was in grade school. This, Johnny Appleseed and Sleepy Hollow plus all those nature movies. Sigh, I miss being a kid.

I love how can still see some of the underlying line gesture. I miss hand drawn animation.

I think he would awesome as Bunyan. Truth be told, if this gets the story it there and told correctly, that's a win.

Dumb comment. Your initial post I thought was maybe a bad sarcastic take, but yeah no, it’s just dumb, misinformed, and you’ll be the most strident one to plead for the police when you need their help. Same as with a tow-truck driver, you harbour all this hate, and refuse to see the person actually doing a very…

Except, you know, the DUI is like, front and center of this whole affair. It’s hard to look away from. Kind of like, “Lincoln’s assassination aside, was the play any good?!” ;)

....Except no police department is paid per arrest.

Yeah, that may be true, but drunk drivers belong as much on the roads as bad cops belong on the streets.
