Fair.

This headline is a generous lie.

White people in the film industry I’m here to help you. The only acceptable comment about the Academy is “The Academy needs more diversity.” FULL STOP. You can pay me my consulting fee later.

It also seems to me like her apology implies, again, that all women are white women?

“We should stay alert and united and support each other to change this unfair reality and don’t let anyone sabotage our common efforts by distorting the truth.” So this isn’t really an apology. She thinks people distorted the truth, or that people didn’t get what she was saying and concentrated on the wrong thing. She…

Retta! The best. She is just so amazing.

We had this conversation yesterday! Heh, that’s how we got last year’s Annie! :)

I have a friend who works/ed on this show. I’m “extremely proud” of her because she’s a pretty great person who doesn’t deserve to be out of work.

My favorite part was the lady sitting upstairs getting her makeup done complaining that “they don’t know me” well enough to open her kitchen cabinets or make noise in her house. But they know her well enough to do her party prep and act as hosts for the first 20 minutes? What?

If Colbert really cares about examining his white privilege he could try diversifying his all-white, mostly male writing staff.

To be fair though, Fallon never pretended to want to be politically involved, He came from SNL and wanted to do comedy. Whereas Colbert is trying to continue the work he was doing on Comedy Central, only without the Colbert Report character.

Well, producers will always submit their own films. It’s the voting process that tends to be self-fulfilling.

Was it always in his mind to run away? (Probably. Wouldn’t it be in yours?) Or did it come after he was sent back to Mount Vernon? After Washington decided, “hey, you’re the best chef I’ve got but I’m going to send you back to the countryside and have you make bricks instead to show you I’m boss.” That’s how much…

I am a children’s librarian and I am just flummoxed by this book and how it came to be. Vanessa Brantley-Newton is a talented Black children’s illustrator, and she illustrates books that positively represent people of color. I’m not too familiar with Ramin Ganeshram although we do have a few of her books in our…

“Fuck ‘yo cake.”

Hercules was most likely not super amped about baking George Washington a birthday cake since he actually ran away on Washington’s birthday.
