I actually clapped my hands with delight when I read that.

Relatively new is the person who watches the whole thing through their phone. The girl next to me at a Beyonce concert filmed the whole thing, and it drove me fucking bonkers. Any time our view was impeded by other people filming, she'd be leaning over me to film the big screen.

Nope. Just the same as it's not condescending to actively use women in Tampax ads, and elderly people in ads for fibre.

I love that the article basically says "haha look at these silly noodles", and there are still comments accusing it of white liberal rage.

I just read the name Meghan/Megan/Mygyn so many times it doesn't seem real any more. It's just a noise.

1) He wasn't bashing the NFL. And even if he was, can't you big, manly sports fans handle a little ribbing without flying off the handle? I mean, that seems like something a sensitive woman person would do.
2) I'm not sure where you got the idea that anybody around here is kissing Doug's ass. He's pretty reviled, which…

I'll admit to not clicking through to the link/caring about the movie. But, bad or not, it was still very obviously a joke.

I can't believe this season is almost over already. Stupid UK shows and their insistence on quality over quantity.

Oh snap, are we just yelling random things at Doug now? I can work with that.
Hey Doug! Tatiana Maslany was robbed, and tonight's awards are a farce! You big dummy!

Oh man. If it was a joke? I know Doug gets some hate around here, but somehow it's his fault you missed a blindingly obvious joke? It's a movie about spiders!

I sure hope they were a troll, because they just came back and claimed that they had just as much right to be angry because they're a lesbian and black people are homophobic. And then wanted to know why black people are so angry and decisive.

It's a burn on her photoshopping skills. If you're going to be upset by anything, it should be tech-snark.

That's an easy fix. You just have to watch Noel Fielding do the dance.

I'm pretty sure you're right. Everything else from the seller is around $10.

For real tho, Ashley Rickards has pissed someone off along the line, or she insists on styling herself. Every time I see a red carpet pic of her, it's terrible fake tan, a weird dress, insane makeup or a really unfortunate blonde period. She looks so good on Awkward, too.
Just let yourself be pale, Ashley! It looks…

I totally agree on that point, and I did initially say I understood the reaction, which I should have expanded on. But my reaction was more to the initial tweet by Lyon's, which came off as "do you even know slavery?" to me. Maybe figure out who you're talking to before saying shit like that.

Okay? As a white feminist, I can't for a minute speak for WOC, but holy shit. Black feminists aren't hating on white feminists, they're hating on white feminism. And rightly so, IMO.

I could be wrong, but it seems the authors of both this article and the original tweet are white. The woman who responded, saying she was the owner of the site, is black.

Well she is black herself... Is that enough?

I get the reaction- but whoops, white women telling a black woman that her reaction to a movie about slavery was wrong...
