Yes, it is ironic that there are all those other countries that have an official language, yet most of their citizens speak at least two languages. And here we are, the “bastion of freedom” and we have people freaking out about just hearing another language.

I’ve been wrongfully imprisoned before...it was terrifying. I can’t inagine what it was like for her. I was an adult but because of a clerical error, literally someone just leaving a piece of paper on their desk instead of filing it, I answered a doorbell one night to find multiple cops fully kitted out asking for…

The thing that was really the most disturbing about her was all the: “There will be a day of reckoning”...bullshit. During the campaign and after.

That’s okay, Andy Yeatman. Here are the things I don’t believe in and therefore conduct my life accordingly despite any evidence to the contrary:

Eh. The rough equivalent of “basic” for males is “bro” or “bro-y.” They’re both pretty good descriptors, in my opinion :-) Also, to me, “basic” doesn’t imply that you only like popular things; it implies that you like an excessive number of popular things, and you like them *because* they’re popular, which makes you…

“Also have Ianka and Melania really been killing the style game?”

Which, in reality TV speak, typically translates to “I voted for Trump” or “I didn’t vote at all.” (Honestly, my money is on the latter.)

Y’all gon get folks in trouble for laughing out loud at work.

Furtwa.

“I know what’s going on. You’re trying to fuck a police dog, aren’t you P0lymorphic? You’re using my splendid name to lure an unsuspecting K-9 officer to your home so you can make sweet love to another animal in uniform?”

This one seems legit, (note the lack of contingency plans, and the paranoid ideation) but...

Suits is a USA network show filmed in Vancouver.  

Plenty of very light black peple were spies during the Civil Rights era. They helped document lynchings that would have otherwise be hidden. Actually all sorts of terrible behaviors were documented by those of us who could “ Pass” for white, but chose not to. How quickly history is forgotten.

She could pass for Dominican because many Dominicans are part black....

Also notably absent is Anita Hill, who, in a lot of ways, was the underpinning. Funny how we are willing to go back and relitigate Bill Clinton, but no one is asking if Thomas can still be comfortably seated on the bench.

Uh...any reason why Tarana Burke (the originator of the #metoo movement) was not included?

My very first thought when I saw the cover/video is where the fuck is Kesha. And while I understand that her and the Cosby women are from last year, it seems a little rude to be like “oh I’m sorry, you didn’t speak up in the PROPER year, so you aren’t included.” I’d argue that these women were a major factor in the…

James McAvoy has gone from gentle, tiny Scotsman who stars in period dramas to hugely buff action man seemingly overnight and I am surprised.

Oh really, that’s what it boils down to? Do better.

And this is what happens when you comment on books you haven’t even fucking read yet... or even listened to Coates talk about the book in a 10 minute interview.
