I loved the john cho interview where he also spoke i think about seeing taye diggs in something with a mostly white cast and then seeing him in how stella got her groove back and realizing he was not as dark as the other movie made him out to be because people of color are usually afterthoughts in lighting.

Same. When people go into rants over how perfect she is I’m like “Nah.” We get it Rihanna, you’re edgy and you want us all to buy into your coolness. She didn’t have to mock some girl for her race because she was jealous. He’s a human trash bag.

I’m not of the opinion that Rihanna is some stellar untouchable goddess. She aight. Slightly racist toward Asians. Catchy music. The way she dips out on Drake every few years after letting him back in is entertaining but only because his earnestness makes us all uncomfortable, I think. He’s so thirsty for her…

Whoa where do you do this? Sounds like a great way to get a free class.

I feel like people who think that regular middle class people don’t work out for hours every day have never been in a gym. I am at a gym right this second. I work here. So I would know, and right now there are three dudes who have been on the rowing machines for one hour so far. They come in 5 days a week and they’re…

If I suddenly had perfect skin I’d flaunt it too. I’d still wear eye and eyebrow makeup but I wouldn’t put so much armor on my skin.

As someone with a dad who was 9,000x more involved and loving than my mother it is in no way acceptable to be a clueless parent. If you can get your ass up for a job you can do it for a baby. If you can wash that ass you can wipe a baby’s. Get it together, world.

When I was in high school I met a girl who called herself “China Blacc” and even had it tattooed on her back. Her explanation was that her eyes were “chinky.” It was a pretty racist and ignorant way to come upon a self chosen nickname.

Oh my god yes. My friend and I were watching tv and remarking on the fact that in the 90s you could see people’s skin. And they had bad hair.

That’s the one thing I took away from the show. I watched the episode with black women in a round table discussion of modern black men. The women had barely grazed the topic when he cut in to make dumbass jokes. Then it ended. It was frustrating to realize actual information would not be forthcoming.

I went to college in Mississippi. My sister went to Ole Miss. This is just what girls are like here. I don’t know how to describe them. I admire their “everyday glamour” attitudes. So they decorate the shit out of their dorm rooms. So Ole Miss students get a huge discount at the Pottery Barn. So what? Y’all are…

Yeah he’s nicer and I love that he has more photos of his dogs than his children and loves to putter about in the garden but Nicole is still my favorite Richie.

You’re the first poly person I’ve ever seen on the internet saying to each their own. Every other person seems to start a monogamy rant and says adamantly that it’s for nobody.

Ugh there’s this creepy guy who works at the local grocery story and knows my grandma and thinks that means he needs to hug me every time he sees me. Over the years I started just not making eye contact in hopes he’d stop but recently I just waved and kept walking when he opened his arms. I’m finally free.

I asked myself a few days ago whether Heigl is really a bitch or if being critical of her own work ruined her career because we can’t allow women to be humans. It’s true her character is “shrewish” in Knocked Up. But then I remembered she said she didn’t deserve an Emmy because the people at Grey’s didn’t write…

Damn. I wish my parents would get a life like that. I only need child care for like two hours a day twice a week during the times when me going to work and my husband coming home overlap with my daughter getting off the bus. What my mom does is pick up my daughter and then go joyriding for happy meals and shopping at…

My white dad always bought me dolls of all skin colors when I was growing up. It’s something I appreciate, that he went out of his way to give his brown child a rainbow of dolls. My little girl has brown skin and curly hair too and also wondered why she couldn’t get curls on her pokemon character.

This is an incredibly sobering topic, but a solid read. I would definitely buy it if you decided to lengthen this into a book in the style of Krakauer’s Missoula.

Queen of the Night is the most appreciated Whitney jam in my heart

I expained gay people to my kid this week because we were watching glee (i know its super mature but she likes the music so we fast forward sexy stuff) and kurt was getting bullied by karovsky. I didn’t really need to explain it tho because she remembered sam smith getting married in the lay me down video. She gets…
