When this show first started, I was really only mildly curious, like barely following the plot, Iwould watch while doing other things. I mostly thought the Belter accent was terrible and Thomas Jane’s whole thing was embarrassing. But oh man, it has become one of the most engrossing shows on tv, for me! That monologue…

Yeah I went to FYF a few years ago, when it was $99 for the whole weekend. Once they started charging Coachella prices it was a pass.

Lady Dynamite was so much funnier than season 4 of AD.

In addition to that, I think a lot of the magic from the first 3 seasons came from chemistry/interactions between the extremely talented cast and when they’re not even in the same room for a season... it was just sad.

Here’s the thing about this particular troll/marketing ploy (if indeed that’s ALL this is - and I think that it’s really him): you fuck a goat, even as a joke - you’re still a goatfucker. And I say this as a former fan who defended him through all kinds of bullshit before this, myself.

I appreciate that we just have a different read here, you may be right. Time will tell.

I would think that except he’s still all “I just want to show people new ideas” even on this track. He’s still defending the bullshit. Earnestly, I believe.

I laughed pretty hard but damn, the joke is imagining coming from a world where college is a given for Black girls who “think they’re grown” and the police don’t murder/mass incarcerate Black people.

“These are my awards, mother. From White House.”

Oh shit. I read the Salt Road by Nalo Hopkinson, in which Erzulie featured prominently and it was weird as hell but I really loved it. So much history and rich cultural texture, she will do great with this. I wasn’t excited until I read that she was involved, now I can’t wait!

Shoutout to that one lady towards the end who has definitely at least watched some Fresh Prince and damn near found the beat. “It... goes...up...!” keeps cracking me up. I understand that these people wield a dangerous amount of power but I am crying laughing at how bad/amazing this is.

I suspect its so that then it would become a lesson in how using the n-word is wrong, rather than just accepting it as a part of authentic Black dialogue.

His life would be an awesome movie and I’m sad that Hollywood ignores incredible stories like this.

I was at this show and I just wanted to say that I thought I was going to explode and die from happiness when she brought out Fiona Apple. I believe my exact words were “AHHHHHH AHHHHH AHHHHH IS THIS REAL IS THIS LIFE I WILL NEVER STOP SCREAMINNNNNG!”

It also never occurs to people like Daly that the reason other people don’t like them is that we can sense that they view people as objects and not people.

She reminds me of a line in White Oleander where the mom says something like “That woman is a parasite. Of course to a tick, it’s a pig’s world.” and that’s what I keep thinking when I see these women who have succeeded and profited greatly from dealings with abusive men castigating the women who don’t want to have to…

“That’s not just wrong, it’s comically, obviously wrong to anyone familiar with it.”

Excuse me? I don’t understand your point. How is referencing the fact that “Dixie” was a major feature in minstrel shows “misrepresentative”? It is a fact about the song and it’s historical/cultural context.

The Toast did the best takedown on that horrible line of thinking:
