couldn’t agree more. Jon Snow is firmly established as an inspiring example of valor and nobility that is also a gallant idiot. That’s been a defining trait of his since pretty much day 1. He is truly Ned Stark’s son, regardless of his lineage.

I thought it was perfectly authentic to the character, nothing about Jon’s history of grandiose fuckups would allow him to NOT pick the worst possible time to bring up new complications in his relationship with Auntie Girlfriend.

I just want it to be good because of my long-standing love for Brie Larson!

Ugh, with the way the pissy fanboys have been about this movie, I was really hoping it would be good just to shut them up.

Yeah, Halsey is a thing at this point. She’s a mentor on The Voice this season. She went #1 on Billboard in 2016 with the Chainsmokers. Most of the people who are going “Who?” have heard her sing because “Closer” stayed at #1 for 12 weeks.

Halsey has had a few hits but yes, I wonder why of all people she got a shot. She’s not exactly known for her personality. Actually she’s not exactly known. Most people wouldn’t be able to pick her our from a lineup

The celebration of Glover’s artistic brilliance comes with the reminder of his seemingly public fetish for Asian women, a perceived past denigration of black women,

Yeah, you kinda did, your initial comment more or less reads as “they might be geniuses if they put some clothes on.”

Wait, are people NOT saying Beyonce is a genius? I am a dumpy middle-aged white dude, I am essentially an anthropomorphic pair of Dockers, and even I think Beyonce is a genius.

Another excuse that the successful nerdy types will use is since black women didn’t want them before they were successful, why should I give them a chance now. Of course they fail to consider that the white women who they date after they are successful wouldn’t have dated them either when they were broke.

Yeah, I’ve always found that so weird. There are always nerdy Black girls that they seem not to see.

..........one time I brought up a personal anecdote about Donald Glover and his preference for, well let’s say a certain type of woman, and I was summarily dismissed. so i dont even bother explaining this to people anymore.

Excellent article, as usual. Of course a person is still Black, and still having a Black experience no matter who they like to spend time with.

I dunno, but for some reason I feel like finding a Jezebel article and posting about how I as a man without kids, can relate to the struggles faced by single mothers and if only women could be more receptive to my life experiences, they could probably learn something.

When you reach levels of racism that confuse the police you are on some next level hatred.

I read this quote the other day. This situation reminded me.

The only troops they actually care about wore grey wool and populate their statuary fantasies.

If we actually supported the troops, we’d pay them better, stop shoving them into meat grinders all over the world, and properly fund the VA.

Slap pregnant troop in face - Fine.
Kneel during a song - Destroying America.

It’s almost like there’s some sort of connection here... about a certain type of person... who doesn’t respect another, different type of person... But, I can’t figure it out.

So, this is proof positive of how much bullshit “Support the Troops” is. These women are in uniform and it didn’t mean a goddamn thing to this unhinged banshee, because it’s not really about “supporting the troops,” it’s a weaponized saying used to intimidate people you see as outside the tribe.
