Holy fuck just let the lady talk about what she wants to talk about. Jesus christ on a cracker.

there weren’t rich black people until the 90s
For shit’s sake, remaking and transforming stories is the entire point of human creativity. There isn’t anything else. That’s what we do. We take a tale, and we re-tell it. We transform Bronze Age folk songs into the Odyssey. We take historical has-beens and never-weres and make them into King Lear and Romeo and…
As another poster pointed out, the Bond franchise is littered with heavy-duty baggage; having a Black actor play Bond will become all about a Black actor playing Bond and not Fleming’s brilliant and timeless work. Your post about Black Brit aristocrats makes my point for me: the film then becomes about that and…
I hate to break it to you but the movies have left Flemming’s work far behind many many years ago. Many of the men cast don’t fit the original criteria. I would even argue that at face value Idris Elba is more convincing than Craig (who I love and totally won me over).
You really think there aren’t elite, old-moneyed black families in Britain? My god. You’ve been living under a rock, mate. There’ve been affluent black people in the UK since Roman times. They go way, way back. They were here before the Angles or the Saxons or the Vikings or the Normans. They guarded Hadrian’s Wall.…
I would pay all the money in my bank account to see Idris and Daniel wrestle in a pool of lube and then have me break it up. With my naked body between them.
She’s right, though. I sprung fully-grown from my father’s forehead at about age 25. #Athena
He’s 42, which ... could make him your grandfather if you were like 16 and everyone had their babies at 13.
There is a difference between being attracted to someone and recognizing someone is attractive. There are people that I am not attracted to but I recognize that they are attractive people.
I don’t see how anyone can say this about POCs and not be racist. Like, hot is hot. I don’t think there’s a single race out there where I was like, naw, all billion of you are just not good sorry.
A couple of people (I’m assuming white, but it’s the internet and they didn’t specify) told me today that they just don’t find black people attractive. Actually, they said African Americans, so like...they’re being really pc about not finding an entire race attractive. BUT NOT BECAUSE THEY’RE RACIST, GUYS. Just, you…
People lie all the time about other crimes, and nobody is going to be like well one time that person false accused someone of some crime I don’t believe it know. The only time when people use false report is when rape is in question. So no she didn’t do a huge disservice to women everywhere and especially to real rape…
I can’t recall one story of a woman who reported a rape, her rapist was accused, and justice was served. Meanwhile any time a woman ‘makes it up’ there are thousands upon thousands of articles wherein people can showcase their vicious misogyny in the name of vindicating those innocent men.
Well, in fairness, if people stopped trying to make women feel bad about their bodies for five minutes apparently the world would end or something. Can’t take that risk.
Exactly. ‘She’s old and not a threat so everyone knows men aren’t really into that so it’s super adorbs how she’s pretending to be worthy of my man lol’
Helen Mirren is super sexy, but Blake wouldn’t have thought this was ok if he was gazing into the eyes of a young actress.
Oh, lord. I have no idea what comparison you're talking about. I hope you're not implying that I condone violence against any group of people because I support free speech. So many responses have been crying about freedom of speech when they're clearly only invested in protecting the speech of the already privileged.…
That and allowing pro-Palestinian protests. France, the country of massive protests, is the only country in the world to ban pro-Palestinian protests.
