I love everything about Queen Sugar. The acting is great and the cast—Kofi...Lawd yes! But most of all I love the brilliant scenery & the vastness of the land. I love the pride that they take in their father’s legacy as a family. Only thing I don’t love is Oprah’s glasses. But when you’re a billionaire over 60 you can…

Once my friend and I made up a game which involved trying to find a book/show/movie that didn’t have any fanfiction written about it.

This story annoys me because now I feel sorry for Corrine and DeMario; two of the least likable people in the entire franchise. I mean obviously each individual is responsible for how much they drink but I have no doubt an empty glass was quickly filled and nonsense was highly encouraged. People with cameras,…

My GOD this looks dumb, how dare they besmirch Shakespeare’s good name with this drivel, also when does it premiere???

The tone changes as she gets older. It’s rosier when she was young and gets darker and much less romantic as it progresses. By the time they’re in WV, she’s realizing how fucked it all is.

Because while I think it’s rather unarguable that the parents *were* emotionally abusive (or at the very least, severely neglectful), it’s not the sort of straight-forward child abuse in some memoirs.

It’s been awhile since I read the book, but I remember it as being a lot less romantic about the immense poverty and fucked up-ness of her childhood. The trailer seems to completely glamorize her childhood in an “adventurous” and “off the beaten path” sort of way instead of how she truly portrayed it - full of anxiety…

*ties off the last knots of my fresh, new crochet weave install* Gurl, all of this!

The CEO at my former job LAUGHED at me for wearing a wig, WHILE WEARING GREAT LENGTHS ON HER HEAD. I admit lost my entire mind. (I’m black)

All entertainers- regardless of ethnicity- wear wigs and weaves. Doing your hair to the 9s every day is really hard on it. The only reason people are shocked by white women wearing weaves and wigs is because the racism in the country has fooled everyone in to believing white women don’t do anything to their hair. That…

I really struggle with my position re: U.S. policy on Africa. Our actions, official or not, are never going to be in Africa’s best interests; that’s not how we operate. So I hem and haw between thinking, “Leave Africa the fuck alone — it’s not your dumping ground or your gold mine” and “It’s your fault these countries…

I might just be put off by how so many of them are trying a bit too hard, it comes off as disingenuous, and they’re terrible at acting like they’re genuinely into her. I do agree with your assessment that she’s over-compensating with kindness, explains the whaboom douche (also production interference). It seems to me…

“Did the show’s producers purposefully place Garrett on the show to cause racial drama?”

This really breaks my heart. The industry broke her down. Someone as talented and beautiful and full of charisma was broken down by these stupid conventions of beauty and femininity. It is so sad. She was as the top of her game, paved the way for other female emcees, broke barriers and she’s been reduced to the…

That is exactly my situation and I am very much enjoying this. I doubt I’ll continue past this season but Rachel seems worth it.

My peak joyful moment of last nights episode was when Ashton Kutcher refused to engage in a waboom with Lucas. When even fucking Ashton Kutcher, who built his career yelling in trucker hats, thinks you’re too extra, you are probably too freakin extra.

She def came off as far more truthful than DeMario. At least she kept her story straight. He went from “I don’t know her” to “She’s crazy” to “Well maybe we hung out” in like 30 seconds. “The man might not be a prize” is a pretty big understatement.

to me it was quite clear that DeMario’s girl was a friends with benefits type thing where she as clearly more invested and considered it a real relationship whereas he was just stringing her along waiting for the next best thing. I mean, come on, she showed a text asking why she hasn’t met ANY of his friends or…

Lol love how he went from “I don’t know her” to “last time I was at her house” in a matter of a few sentences. This was some well timed drama.

or the guy whose worst fear is that the girl he goes out with ends up being a dude. good god.
