Of course oppressed people existing under whitegaze and systemic racism in a white supremacist are tired of being miserable. But the reality is that existing under whitegaze and systemic racism in a white supremacist— if you are not fully white — is MISERY. You’re tired of hearing about it? Guess how those stuck in

Mississippi Masala from 1991 was an interesting if light weight exploration of a romance between a Black man played by Denzel Washington and a Desi woman Sarita Choudhury (ethnically Indian but was part of the diaspora living in Uganda forced out by Idi Amin).

I think the issue for people is the cognitive dissonance. People either buy into the idea of the American Dream, where anyone with talent and drive can succeed, or the believe we should move towards a more equal world, where the ideal of the American Dream is a little more true. Nepo babies threaten both those visions

I hope she didn’t inherit her mom’s acting skills! 

Really, the only time nepotism in the arts seems to be an issue is when directors and producers keep trying to shove their own unworthy relations into acting roles (looking at you, Will and Francis). But when, say, Spike Lee casts Denzel Washington’s son in BlackkKlansman, it’s because he was the man for the role. I

“Sure, Anna, I’m super-impressed that you managed to con your way into a hotel. Oooh. Con your way into Congress and I’ll think about it.”

What?! No George Santos (if that’s even his real name)? Sounds like a convention he’d fit right in with and oh, the tricks of the trade stories they all could share. They could combine their powers and form into an ultra giant Con-tron.

Cindy left a full-ride scholarship to Northwestern in Chemical Engineering since she knew to take advantage of her opportunities as there currently were. Lady isn’t some empty shirt and I assume she passed along a respect for education that far too many of these empty headed dummies clearly lack.

Nepotism in the arts is not at all a current thing.

I immediately thought of him as well. 

So stuff like this used to alarm me as well. Now I always take it with a grain of salt because we don’t know the significance of the one weird thing within the context of their entire relationship. Like it may have been an odd sense of humor, a misunderstanding, a poorly thought out attempt to be charming, etc. I get

During the pre-interview part, did Emily/Emily’s PR team really not come up with better anecdotes than that?

But, but ,but... DrAg ShOWs ArE dAnGeRoUs!

He was under legal threat of being deposed and he didn’t want to admit that the Twitter acquisition was a smokescreen for him to dump a ton of Tesla stock while it was tanking. He decided it was better to swallow a bitter pill than open himself up to that can of worms. Basically he’s an idiot but he has lawyers who

Let’s not forget the time he got destroyed by Hard Drive:

Wow... ok I was mistaken. He’s an idiot. Bought it for $44B. Unbelievable. Either his attorneys did a terrible job with that contract or he failed to be completely honest with his attorneys from the start and let a critical deadline lapse that created an unwinnable case in court, where the ultimate result would have

I don’t know if Elon Musk is the worst person on Earth but he is trying very hard and spending a lot of money to show us he is the worst person on Earth.

I’ll never understand why he didn’t just pay the 7bn$ penalty or whatever, instead of going through with paying almost 50bn$?! He’s just making one bad decision after another and he seems like he’s basing all this on his own ego, like he’s drinking his own koolaid.

We need to pay the bills.

And of course at all of 5'11", by the Incel view of the world Brad Pitt cannot get laid either.
