He said he did it because they “love history and often dress the part of historical figures,” the Lexington Herald-Leader reported.

Barack Obama: got himself elected President. TWICE.

Can’t wait for the Root article to come out and roast this bitch. +1 if it’s Michael Harriot.

LOL.....

Former President Doesn’t Get It; Wet Behind The Ears Child Blogger Gets Everything

Do a couple Hanes commercials, and now he thinks he’s Mr. Showtime Moviestar! Well, listen up, joyboy, cause I got a newsflash: You and your good time hooligans might get your jollies pissing on the American flag, but in my day, that flag meant something. Sure, Ol Glory isn’t the prettiest flag, but in my day, we…

Yeah, I’m enjoying the show so far and never expected a completely faithful adaptation, so the repeated “why isn’t this like the book???” is getting old...

I’m beginning to think that the problem with these ‘binge’ reviews is that they don’t give the reviewer time to move on from their initial impression (also they get knocked off the front page too quickly, but that’s a different issue.) In this case, we’ve got three consecutive reviews of “this isn’t like the book. I…

Are all of these reviews going to be devoted to bitching about the adaptation or lack thereof? Haven’t we s known for a while that the story was a lot different from the book and that they just basically adopted the setting?

Azealia Banks, in her mind: The black woman. So powerful.

Azealia Banks, in practice, feuded with Skai Jackson two years ago. Skai Jackson became eligible to get a driver’s license this year. Less than a year later, she called Rihanna an immigrant whose opinion doesn’t matter because she called Donald Trump’s…

“We’re living in a golden age of being able to access a vast library of music and movies for peanuts and it’s still not cheap enough?”

It’s great. I’ve found a ton of good music in their “Suggested” sections. Goes by Tracks or Albums.

I mean, there is already someone in the grey’s saying that uplifting black women means replicating oppressive colonist systems so....

I thought a lot about the reaction as well, for all the reasons that you stated in this piece. And to your point about about adding to the existing negative narrative about black men, that was puzzling as well, because you were making points primarily from an intraracial perspective. But then then, also it stands to…

This piece is a fan paean, not a review of the show. If Amy Adams wasn’t the star of this tedious production, it would have been panned. The entire show about the murders of young girls in a small town turned the murders in to McGuffins - until the last ten minutes when everything suddenly everything hinges on them.…

Of course, Camille could have taken a blue bottle and her suspicions to the police rather than allow herself to get poisoned nearly to death. But then, those would have been the actions of a sane reporter.

Look, Luvvie is around my age; I will sing you I’m Ready and Can We Talk all day long. Now, her origins may be part of the problem; she apparently didn’t reach the States until the age of 9, but my dad used to play the hell out of that album even when I was little.
