If Duke students can’t tell the difference between a suggestion and a requirement, we’ve got larger problems here.

Because the Hangover is super “sophisticated”.

I originally read that as “Cranky McCracker”.

As a Black male victim of sexual assault, let me just say: fuck this piece of human trash that is Bill Cosby. If we could have a racial draft, I’d pay team white to take him.

I hate that I’m jealous of both Drake and Meek Mill. Life is complicated.

I saw Tig live a week or so ago. It was a brief show and the crowd was not a comedy crowd. Still, she is the best stand up comedian I’ve ever seen live... and I’ve seen Chappelle. She has this dimension to her comedy that I can’t even fucking explain. It’s like a timing so good, so intense and so cool all at once;

I’m an Italian cheese chauvinist. I will tell the French to fuck the fuck off with their cheese (even though I am otherwise a gentle francophile).

(Don’t) fuck this shit.

I had an Italian sheep’s milk Camembert recently and I learned to love life a little bit more.

I’m completely nonplussed by the whole “strong man”/“real man”. Until we can redefine masculinity as merely self-identifying as a man and being a decent fucking person, I’m out of the game. And to all the guys who are still obsessed by proving their manliness (largely to each other, but sometimes to women too): I

I can’t even tell you how fucking sad it makes me. You reach a point in your life where you’re like, “what the fuck am I doing this for? what gives my life meaning?” For some of guys, having kid is the next step. Not because it’s what we’re supposed to do, but because it’s the next thing we really, really desperately

Don’t white people, at the very least, find this disrespectful to whichever white designer pioneered tacky shit that profits off of dead Black people?

It’s impossible to imagine Mockingbird’s Atticus, so thoroughly inhabited by Lee in all of his goodness, turning into a man who’d ever attend a KKK rally....

In 2010 about 9% of CS grads were Black. 4.5% at elite schools.

Damn, this is making me tear up. When I was young I went to an experimental school that brought together mostly white middle class kids (I was one of the only Black middle class kids) into a largely working class Black and Latino area (I think they had one white kid). What was an attempt at class and racial

Perhaps they’ve been busy with their algorithm that takes the 9% of CS grads who are Black (or the 4.5% of CS grads who are Black at elite schools) and makes sure that no more than 2% of their tech staff is Black.

Perhaps they’ve been so busy making shitty work conditions for Black women like Erica Joy that they never

My imaginary future wife will propose to me like this (I hope).

I mean really.

Tout simplement, en anglais c’est les personnes de couleur qui décident quelles phrases sont racistes et c’est pareil en français. Les opinions de tes collègues valent que dalle s’ils sont blancs.

Someone needs to let these bigots know that hard as it is to believe, America isn’t (yet) communist; they don’t have a right to employment.
