That line made me want to crawl out of my own skin. Ughhhh.

When your first response to “how has your wife changed you” is “well, she gives me a lot of pleasure” ... that is not a healthy dynamic.
The power dynamics are totally off when you compare Rachel Roy to Monica Lewinsky.
It’s not easy, since a lot of people’s careers require social media now.
Rachel Roy and Queen B aside - would you argue the Monica Lewinsky wasn’t bullied? I mean, she’s had TED talks about it and was cyberbullied before it was a thing. But similar to Rachel Roy, she had a extramarital relations with a married man and got attacked for it.
Don’t forget Spike Lee and Harry Belafonte.
Killer Mike, Cornel West, Ben and Jerry, Nina Turner, Tammy Duckworth, Garcia, Guitierrez, Lucy Flores, Ben Jealous... Union endorsements and many other organizations.
Larry understood something important about how Obama puts together these dinners: The jokes aren’t for the people in the room. They’re for the folks at home, who for one night get to see these self-important Washington pricks get taken down a peg.
He wasn’t wrong about Wolf either. He is the freaking worst. I was waiting after the boos from the audience for Larry to have a Bernie Mack moment, “I ain’t scared of you motherfuckers!”
Killer Mike.
I thought he was fucking hilarious too. That crowd needs to pull the sticks out of their asses.
I was cracking up (or cringing in a good way) almost the entire time. The “Obama’s hair is so white it says all lives matter” killed me. And the part about Morning Joe was so incredibly real. Don Lemon actually handled it the best in my opinion. Yes he flipped him off but it was obviously in a joking way.
Yup! Not a single glorious fuck was given by Larry. And the best part was that Obama seemed to really enjoy it. Maybe minus the drone bit - but alas, that was fully deserved.
I also loved how Larry Wilmore did not give a single fuck about the audience. He straight up did not care about their opinion or their reactions except to laugh at them for being a tough (white) crowd.
White liberals can't take a race joke. Everyone else is way more chilled about. Wilmore killed it btw that Stephen curry joke was pretty good with a zing
What a fucking BAMF. Ties Cecily for best speech since Colbert.
People are fucking weird. This was HILARIOUS. And all the more so by how many complete cringe worthy moments there were, of all these media people being entirely unable to laugh at them selves. Did you guys see Blitzer’s face?? If eyes could kill, Larry would be dead. Dead, I tell ya.
