That struck me as well. I felt very sad reading that.

Jenner says she “contemplated” it after the story posted, not that she threatened to do so beforehand to TMZ.

“I’m not doing this to be interesting. I’m doing this to live.”

Pausing for a second to contemplate the fact that TMZ’s hardball tactics could have led to Jenner’s suicide. This is not fun and games, this is dangerous stuff. I’m glad she made it through, and I join to chorus of congratulations.

On receiving a call from TMZ in 2013 about her tracheal shave:

I see you Caitlyn with a C.

(Re: transitioning for attention): “It ain’t happening.”

I love this. Like there’s no other response to this besides lol and gtfo and who even are you. What kind of paranoid poopy diaperpants person believes this? “THE KARDASHIAN / JENNERS FAKED THE MOON LANDING AND NOW THIS????????? Enough is enough”

I honestly can’t wrap my brain around the concept of a movie this offensively bad getting made. And I sat through Left Behind. Granted, I was super baked, and loved every ridiculous second, but Aloha doesn’t even have the saving grace of a good hate-watch. It’s just insulting to its viewers to assume we wouldn't…

We’re going to act like there is not a history of white washing in Hollywood here now? We’re going to act like this decision was made in a vacuum and not in a society were is ok to have white people playing non Caucasian people all the damn time right? Bizarrely I never see mixed race people casted to play white…

I agree that some 1/4 asian people can look very caucasian, but she is also supposed to be quarter Hawaiian. Like ethnically Hawaiian. That usually lends to a darker complexion, even when mixed with caucasian and/or asian genetics. Definitely a missed opportunity.

and i do not think they are gonna have big blue eyes and pale pale skin with freckles and blonde hair. sorry just incredibly unlikely.

I have cousins who are 1/2 Korean, and their kids look decidedly Caucasian. But seriously - it doesn’t matter that it’s possible for people who are part-Asian to “pass” and that somehow makes Emma Stone playing this character okay. There are plenty of part-Asian actors who could have played this role instead but I…

According to the post, the character is supposed to be 1/4 Chinese and 1/4 Hawaiian (presumably ethnic Polynesian). That would make her 50% non-anglo caucasian. Emma Stone, on the other hand, is approximately 134% white.

A quarter asian and a quarter indigenous Hawaiian. This person may look White, but also may not. She almost definitely would not be a blonde-haired, blue-eyed Emma Stone.

You might want to hold off on that generalization. I’m half-white, half-asian and my daughter is a quarter asian, three-quarters white. She looks more asian than I do. I know other women and men in my life that are also three quarters and look more asian than emma stone does. Take a look at Keanau Reeves. He’s a…

She is also part Hawaiian, which I think (since it was used in the same line as describing her as a quarter Chinese) is supposed to mean ethnically, and most Hawaiian people are not as white-looking as Emma Stone because they’re Polynesian/PI. Genetics are freaky, yeah, but I don’t think Hollywood needs anyone to play…

It’s also crazy that Aloha came out at the same time as this incredible William Finnegan personal history about Hawaii and race and surfing and devotion, in the New Yorker—make that white man’s Hawaii story into as nuanced a movie as the piece was and I’d be there for it 100%

It seems to tell people to wait for good things to happen instead of figuring out how to make it happen. I dislike The Secret because it basically blames the person when bad things happen to them for putting bad energy out. It goes up there with God never gives a person more than they can handle. If that is true, God…

I agree. I feel like that belief leads to entitlement and is the opposite of empowering. Which is ironic because so many proponents of ‘The Secret” etc. believe themselves to be self actualized.

I LOVE THIS
