I mean I get the confusion, but it never even occurred to me. Alessia Cara totally got me at first. I was surprised to learn she’s just Italian-Canadian. Sometimes they really are just curly haired white girls.

Of course, being Hispanic doesn’t preclude her from being black, and her dad is of Venezuelan descent so you weren’t necessarily wrong, although I don’t think she identifies as such.

Oh, hon. The moment ODB said “yooooo New York in the house” that’s when I, then a young girl, knew this wasn’t the sweet, gospel singing Mariah no mores. And don’t get me started on them Daisy Dukes (that informed another part of me).

Hold up, did you completely miss Daydream? I joke with my brother how Fantasy was when Mariah stopped playing games and made it known she was black. Especially the remix.

Now I see why y’all nuked Clashtalk. This is bad.

It’s like they sat down and asked themselves how they could make HGTV whiter.

I think some people just forget how sketch shows work. Not everything on In Living Color was hilarious. MAD TV, which was blacker than SNL so of course I watched it, had numerous duds. Chappelle’s Show hit more often than not, but it’s not perfect either. How many people are just remembering the 5 truly hilarious

I’m completely unsurprised by the lack of love on black twitter for ABLSS. This isn’t shade. But it’s just...sometimes we are our hardest critics. And if something doesn’t come out from the gates firing on all cylinders, people don’t stick with it or won’t try to see it get better. Also, lots of nostalgia for the

Black don’t crack 🤷🏾‍♀️

It’s not that relationships aren’t talking points, but when a black man—who’s a veteran on tour—dates a white woman and *now* they want to say he’s just now getting serious about his career? Are they kidding me? Maybe Gael “got serious” because he’s over 30, just got back from a long injury, is awesome on hardcourts,

I wish someone would’ve talked about the odious reporting around Svitolina’s and Monfils’s relationship this US Open. The ESPN talking heads made a lot of hay over Svitolina improving Monfils’s game by making him more professional and saying he improved her game by making her more...physical I guess. I hated it. So

How did I miss that typo? Ugh.

Bernie got an ouchie because he felt into his shower door.

It’s his voice that gets me. It’s so vacant. He’s so bad at the scripted bits but so obviously good at his job. Like this dude is totally excited to pick out rocks in Tennessee or wherever, but you wouldn’t know it from his voice.

If I was more jaded, and maybe I should be, I’d say it’s akin to General’s Fried Chicken.

This is good kinja.

I can say whatever I want. Still doesn’t mean I give a fuck about you 🤷🏾‍♀️

Aww you’re one of those people. I don’t give a fuck.

I mean...

That’s a Rusty Venture.
