I guarantee that is not in their Netflix contract lol.

haha it might be - but I think sometimes that’s ok? Or could be ok. Maybe the show is just straight up boring. But personally I’d be more interested in the cultural stuff anyway

Luckily she didn’t follow through with her threat but yeah... not fun! Not encouraging! Not the right way to relax!

after reading this, I’m not even sure what the author wants.

yeaah... I skim read and got to the reiteration of “there was no real attempt to reckon with why we should consider other options”

wow... that sounds also bad! Ugh! Give these moms a guidebook

why is every Jezebel article title lately a rip-off of The Unbearable Lightness of Being

I found this interesting bc I am a big baby - my mom tried to force me to use a tampon as a kid, I freaked out 3000% and never ever really learned how to use them (I mean, I KNOW how to use them but never have) - I didn’t realize they expanded at all! I’m not the brightest!

to be fair to her in this context... it’s incredibly hard to just “remove” yourself from this franchise after you were a major player. You’re going to be asked about it constantly by everyone you know & don’t know even if you decide to “leave it behind you.” She’d have to move to mars to escape it

something to consider: don’t say PoC when you really mean black (this piece seems to be exclusively about the black experience)

Johnny Depp, you WOULD find a way to make this article about you.

thanks, that’s a LOT more insightful and actually unpacks things rather than doing the tired Jezebel thing of “it’s a large group of people gathered in one place... so I guess it’s kinda a cult...! the end”

I don’t think you’re understanding what people objected to. Take me, for instance.

does anyone else feel really “meh” about people getting let go for a racist tweet they made years ago?

sorry, but what is even the point of this article? I could have gleaned all this from a Wikipedia article on her.

it’s not bigotry to acknowledge that, despite SOME efforts by SOME people to counteract the impact of racial bias, the industry as a whole is still biased against black voices, and biased towards white voices. This is so well known as to almost be mundane everyday knowledge. Because, as stated in the article above, he…

my eyes bugged a little at that because it was so patronizing

ugh ugh ugh too true... who just leaves a fish in a home they moved out of? then blames it on the tik-tok burglar??

the pessimist in me thinks that they rebranded b/c no one knows who the f*ck they are anymore and this will get them in the limelight again
