Chrissy Teigen is insufferable. Truly. And, after she called a nine year old Quvenzhané Wallis “cocky” for enjoying her first Oscars, I’ve been tired of her Cool Girl shtick. But fuck body shaming asshole.

The difference between Beyoncé’s origins and Taylor’s is Matthew Knowles gave up his cushy Xerox job to focus on Destiny’s Child and Beyoncé. He went from a six figure job to barely making ends meet bc he believed in his daughter. Taylor comes from generational wealth. Her parents funded her early interests and career

It’s not funny but I laughed.

If nothing else, can we please stop saying that Beyoncé wants to be a white woman now? She’s not bleaching her skin. She’s doesn’t hate herself. Let this lie die a miserable death. Thank you.

White people think that. I literally had to convince white people that Vin Diesel was not a white Italian dude. It was like pulling teeth. And he doesn’t even look white!

His mother is a brown woman from Guatemala, so I don’t count him as white. His siblings are brower than he is but I would never call him white Latino. White-passing is most accurate like it is for someone like Maya Rudolph

And, there it is. I knew if I pushed back enough, I’d get to the heart of the matter. You think because you’ve read a Black academic (or 2) that you get it. That you couldn’t POSSIBLY be racist. Oh, at least not a “real racist”.

‘I am white, I’m very white, I grew up on a tiny island where almost everyone was white’

Look at you, reverting to sexist endearments because you were adequately challenged. How typical. Our politics are probably not identical, as you have no interest in understanding racial dynamics beyond what you can see and, as a person who literally studied racial identity and formation at university, I find that

Um, I’m not the one who has decided they are the expert on racial identity and optics. That was you and you look very stupid while doing it. So, if you think that you’ve won, that’s your white perspective ignoring reality, something white people have been doing since time immemorial. So, congrats for being on-trend.

Won what, exactly? You literally sound stupid and uninformed and yet you think you’ve won something. That’s funny. And are you EVEN American?And yet you’re talking about the specifics of race in an American context? All because you read one Black academic? Did you read any other books, articles, hell... blogs? No?

Well, you can continue to think that, white man. I, a Black woman, will not because I refuse to be simple.

Okay, I just cackled! LOL

And then some people wonder why PoC want PoC only spaces. WHITE PEOPLE MAKE ME SO FUCKING TIRED.

Your questioning is both irrelevant and ignorant. It doesn’t matter what the fuck you think he looks like. HE was a Black man and identified as one. There are people who thought Mariah fuckin’ Carey was a white woman and yet she identifies as a mixed-race BLACK woman. There are people to this day who need convincing

Um, being a person of color doesn’t actually mean you have to be visibly brown. People of color with albinism are still people of color. People of color with vitiligo are still people of color. The fuck you mean?

I’ve actually wondered about this, too. I mean, are they?

Ya know, at this point, Amber is quite used to people shaming her. She’s used to Kanye shaming her, calling her basically a dirty whore. And had he kept his shaming to just her, she probably would’ve let it go. But his fuckboy ass had to bring Bash, her son, into the mix by degrading him and basically calling him a

Ya know, last week on Twitter, I wrote that it shouldn’t be all that surprising that, specifically, Black voters are demanding that both Clinton and Sanders earn our vote and the amount of “Bernie actually cares about Blacks, so you’re stupid for questioning him” tweets I got was pretty staggering. Then, I said that
