Standing. Fucking. Ovation for this comment.

...No. If Philip Roth was allowed to write the same fucking story over and over, about boring, ruthless men on navel-gazing quests for sexual fulfillment — and win prizes for it — and be called one of the greatest writers of his generation — I think we as a culture can afford Beyoncé space to take what is personal to h…

So because she has an album showing the journey of going through some very human and natural reactions to trust being broken in a marriage, it is drama? You think referring to a woman using her music as catharthis, and being honest about how she felt as “drama” isn’t ingrained misogyny? She put him on blast with many…

Here here!

A Becky is a white girl, though.

I feel like Beyonce is being quite direct, not really anything passive about it. She’s putting a personal experience, one that unfortunately is shared by many, in a political context. If that’s over your head it’s one thing, but it seems like if you’re reading a post about it and commenting on it, you give more than a…

I had assumed maybe Rihanna was Becky - Rihanna = Rebecca = Becky. Because weren’t there rumors there also?

*raises hand like Hermione in Potions class on Sorcerer’s Stone*

A few years ago I was starting a company and I got some advice that I should get a staunchy looking old white guy to partner with me to ‘look the part.’ So I commenced with interviewing those well-qualified to fill that roll, I didn’t specifically ask for old white guys but when you say you’re hiring a CEO for a…

One of these days, some person will say some insensitive shit about race, and won’t include the hypothetical green and/or purple people in their sorry-not-sorry, or just not-sorry in this case, response and I’ll think to myself, “Progress!”

Counterpoint: She is a professional entertainer, and this entertained me.

pretty sure wendy’s thing is to do a terribly wrong hot take so she gets attention, then reverses it and pretends to be all remorseful so people are all like “thanks for seeing the light wendy now you woke too”, and then she counts her money and cackles and goes onto jezebel and looks in the greys to find another…

Conversely, I haven’t changed my mind about Wendy Williams

Right! And the parents said that they don’t do anything at all to it which, girl I guess....

Ok, sure, it's a lot of hair.

I really liked it, and I’m willing to give it time to gel a touch more because... pilot.

I feel like a lot of (white) people don’t understand the importance of Brandy. Bless the folks at Saint Heron who just recently did a profile about her and her influence on the RnB. And how she was really one of the first artists to pioneer that electronic/ sci fi RnB sound (full moon) that white artists now take…

honestly WHAT ARE THE CHANCES they finally found another use for this wig

Yep. “I made it through my 20s, everyone else surely can!” But not everyone in their 20s has parents who are willing and able to pay their cell phone bills or wire them a few hundred bucks as needed.
