It seemed like things were starting to happen that way for a while in the 90s with Boomerang and Waiting to Exhale and the like, but then Tyler Perry happened.

Yes, but all of that is unrelated to his race. Their issues are all related to who each person is/what they’ve been through, not a result of skin color.

See, look at their clothes, this happened in the olden times. Now we have Obama !

I think a shitload of people look at the brutality depicted in films about slavery and think: “See, that would be something to complain about. Comparatively, they’ve got it so good now and still they complain, complain, complain!”

It’s pretty fucking rich that people are cool with consuming and confronting slavery in the form of entertainment while gasping at the horror of it all, but refuse to budge when it comes to things like criminal justice reform, income inequality, etc., and acknowledging the lingering effects of a country built on the…

And when Hollywood does decide to make movies about black people or any people of color, they end up casting white people

You know what I would love? More movies with black people just being people. Like dramas, character pieces, etc., with black people just being normal people, you know, like we are in real life. Not “black movies” (stay away Tyler Perry. Stay far, far away). Not slavery movies. Not Straight Outta Compton. Not Boyz in…

But I also want to watch movies about black debutante balls and the Great Migration and a coming-of-age movie about a black teenager in Houston who loves to skateboard and gets into trouble with her Desi best friend. Those films are surely out there waiting to be made. I guarantee that somewhere there sits a great…

No, they would obviously name a son (or daughter) Robert Kardashian, after his father (I don’t think Rob’s a Junior, from my quick Wikipedia glance). Because as Rob tweeted before, HE can pass on the family name. So that would be the ultimate burn.

Hey, at least Rob and Blac Chyna are not only age-appropriate, but neither will have to sponge off the other to pretend to have financial success.

I wiki’ed Blac Chyna and learned that her name is really Angela White. Tyga is Michael Stephenson.

The one thing that could make this better is if Blac Chyna and Rob have a baby and name it Toodaloo Mofo Kardashian. Revenge name.

Omg this is getting better day by day

Omg. It’s a brilliant move on his part. It’s so smart.

So a grown single man and a grown single woman dating each other is disapproved of by the Kardashians because it makes things uncomfortable for the teenage girl who started dating a *not single* grown man at age seventeen and has been financially supporting him ever since?

I love that Rob is doing this so much. SO MUCH.

I have not stopped laughing over this Rob/Blac Chyna thing and I NEVER WILL.

You’re being quite generous. I don’t think Tyga has gotten paid for anything in ages.

I wonder if the Kardashians really feel like she is “preying” on Rob. Like, Tyga literally started sleeping with Kylie as a minor, and Blac Chyna is a predator?

If I’m flipping channels and come across a Friends episode, I have to watch it. That show underscores my highschool and university years. I remember one early episode, when they’re all playing poker, and Rachel is being a total jerk but Ross lets her win just because she really needs a win after sucky job stuff, and…
