And don’t forget she was paid way less than most of her counterparts to begin with. I appreciate people like Mo’Nique who ARE honest, call out names and challenge the system. It’s the only way it will EVER change. People need to know. And I don’t blame her one little bit for using this material in her stand up…

And least we forget, Fassbender didn’t just happen to be in NZ during campaign time. He openly ranted about feeling burned by campaigning for Shame and yet not being nominated and thus essentially said “Oh, fuuuuuck this” the next time around (i.e. during campaigns for 12 Years a Slave and (ha ha, girl you wish) The…

She didn’t refuse to do press. She refused to pay for her own flights and give up her income from her show to do press and campaign for an Oscar. Daniels could have paid for her flights, put her up, supplemented her income to “campaign” for something that was supposedly an honor, but he didn’t. He didn’t give Gabby…

What did she do, exactly? I have seen no evidence of her doing anything untoward. She didn’t campaign for the Oscar she won, she spoke out about unfair treatment, unequal pay—you know, the things women, especially Black women, are supposed to just accept. Maybe it isn’t smart and it certainly isn’t “playing the game,”…

Charlie Hunnam, meet Taylor Kitsch.

I like Kate Spade bags because they’re not covered in ugly block letter ‘C’s. I got a small cute blue bag during one of their 75% off surprise sales that I wear when I travel. Hopefully, they’ll be able to keep their simple design aesthetic, although their cutesie stuff is off putting.

My opinion of him was rather nebulous and half-formed until he asked Reggie if he was going to hit him. Solidified right into the “nope” column. What the fuck was that?

when i watched the coco-sam throwback to their freshman year, i texted my friend saying that i loved colandrea more than anyone else and i worried it was cause of her mirroring whiteness (though i still suspect it’s cause she’s the BEST slash also, the south side of chicago is still a big part of my heart more than a…

I think they should explore Joelle more in season 2. I actually like that they didn’t show her more in this season because I think that was the point. Coco is the dark skinned woman who presents herself as “conventionally” attractive and is making power moves so she’ll get more attention in this world. Joelle is the…

Sam White was trash, imo. Hopefully she continues to spiral and learn the error of her ways, if they get a season 2.

Naomi Campbell is the closest we have to a Greek goddess: gorgeous and immortal and terrible in her pettiness and fury.

Pseudo patois from the whitest white girl? No thanks!

Hilary Duff better still be the theme song.

To be clear, while the cultures are different, they are not “completely” different, and I’m glad Pan Africanism came along and addressed that falsehood. Our cultures are cousins. I know some of them hate hearing it from African Americans since they often like to distance themselves, but it doesn’t make it any less…

It’s pretty Dominican of her to deny her kid is black when he’s obviously black as hell. I didn’t know Puerto Ricans did that as well.

God I wish I was thin.

I don’t know why at age 70 he’s basically putting a classified ad in the wackiest newspaper ever. I feel like if you haven’t managed to have a child by 70, that ship has sailed. You hear people talk about how hard it is and how exhausting it is to have a baby kid in your 40's and it’s so much harder than when you’re…

I agree about the stereotypical portrayals of Black women in his sketch comedy. I’d really like to know about his socialization. Did he grow up with his black relatives nearby? What was the makeup of his neighborhood and school? Did his perspective change when he left home and nobody automatically knew his background?

they actually photo’d it in a brown paper bag tho
