Not at all a problem! Thanks for being receptive to correction. We all have a lot to learn and that can be more quickly achieved when we work together to educate. :D

I'm not sure if all of them were - these two definitely needed something to clash over. They DON'T have a lot in common besides their apartment and friends. We needed to see how their goals, morals, tastes, etc. clashed so fights were necessary. But The Box should have been like 2-3 episodes before this one because

"Happy Bert Day" is really cute and is the first one I thought of, but I think the value lies more in the performances than one episode over another. Ryan Lee, Albert Tsai, and Michaela Watkins make every single line funny on this show, and considering that the first two are both under 18 and Albert is 9 and acts (and

I don't think I'll give up, but it's felt like a chore lately, especially compared to Brooklyn 99. I think I've been more excited to watch Trophy Wife the last few weeks.

I really miss Schmidt. His long locked-out monologue to Jess and CeCe was exactly what I enjoy about the character. Weird pronunciations, little body movements, insane tangents. I don't know if Max Greenfield accidentally left a rude drunk voicemail on Liz Meriwether's machine or what but like, he was in the doghouse

Something interesting I noticed is that Liz and maybe Lamorne remarked that this season would be "tighter" - they would be doing less improv and allowing for less loose time to experiment while filming and honestly, between that, the terrible Schmidt plot and then taking him away from the action, bringing in a new

While I would not encourage separating people, I do personally dislike this "colorblind" attitude people have - "we're all the same." No we're not. Black people have a very different experience, history, set of customs, cultural vernacular and tradition, even morals from white people. (While CERTAINLY not all, black

I think that, considering the several trans competitors and guests they've had on the show, they wanted to promote equality by doing this and correcting a wrong. With Laverne Cox, Janet Mock, and Carmen becoming such beloved public figures recently, the network also made a smart move by appealing to them and their

I think it's planned out, though - you're telling me Darienne had those earrings laying around? I think they're told what to pack for some of the challenges.

I've even seen people on the red carpet publicly mocked for not knowing who designed their dress or how to pronounce the designer. And that's just a dress at an awards show. Imagine if Jay Leno kept saying DeVito instead of DeNiro.

I still have the feeling Bianca won't win so they can bring her back for All-Stars. They'd be stupid to give her up, unless after she wins they develop her own show or bring her into an existing Drag Race spinoff.

See I was surprised that she didn't excel. I think Bianca, Courtney, and Ben have the skills and presence one would need to host their own show. I've really wanted Bianca to do some kind of Drag School show where she trains drag newbies, so like a Junior Drag Race. I think those three girls, maybe with some training,

So that's what cis is used to express. Default is a poor word choice. Default is similar to natural. Maybe something like BMP - Biologically Matched Person - or something similar would appease people but I'm fine with cis. I really don't find the need to have to use it about myself that often anyway.

I think the "tranny" challenge is what prompted the backlash, and the show decided to remove everything.

Just a note: transgender, not transgendered. They prefer to use it as an active adjective as opposed to a thrown-on identifier like "person of color" vs. "colored". I don't think people will tar and feather you for using the -ed; it's just what I've been told is the standard preference.

But that's an issue too. Is one race the "default" race? Is heterosexuality the "default" orientation? That implies that there's a natural set of components as opposed to gender, race, orientation, etc. having many, many options, all of which should be treated with dignity. One gender identity being a majority (for

I agree. Now if this were a massive, multi-season challenge that we were dealing with (if feminists went after Snatch Game, which they wouldn't) I would get people being angry. But the "tranny" mini-challenge didn't seem to be a massive hit or all that funny (the chin singing and this week's challenge were a lot

I think the queens were thrown not just by their stoicism but by their status as Cher's family. Joslyn tweeted at Chaz after something like "please don't tell your mother I'm an a-hole". Chaz did reply with an encouraging tweet, which was really nice to see. I think these were edited for time because with Joslyn

It's not that every show needs women of people of color or people of a certain ethnic background. It's that for every True Detective, there should be a Broad City. Feminists want more women in television, not a complete monopoly on every movie and television show. At least, not myself and not the feminists I know.

SERIOUSLY. Throw some visible female extras into Hooli. Even if they're not coders, you're telling me that Google doesn't have social media analysts, assistants, in-house attorneys, advertising teams? These are all jobs that definitely, totally have women involved. I don't need a female programmer, but some women
