ABC article :

The bulldog has booked its return flight on Spirit Airlines.

She can’t move her face. Too much botox, too much filler. This is all she’s got.

Whaaaat. This is total bullshit. While I found this series boring, sorry guys, Claire Foy, is clearly the star. Phillip looked like crispin Glover mixed with some generic actor to me.

I think a grandma looks the best!

The roots look like a zipper; she can just zip off the wig whenever.

She looks like a CGI construct created by an AI who has access to images but has never actually encountered a human before.

Okay, so Mom and Gram’s look happy, but it’s like Deep Thoughts with Kim K. in that picture. Ugh, and the roots.

1) She is looking increasingly like a Sim.

As a person who allows the dog to sleep in her bed, I say cats are a hell of a lot easier to bed share with. My dog is a fan of occupying an entire queen bed (sideways usually, of course) and farting in your face.

I mean, sure. But they’re still Black. I don’t know what to tell you if you want to deny the fact that ancient Black people are our ancestors. So you can go and make a distinction between between “Black” and “Australian aborigines” but that’s not worth it to me. My entire point was to say that the Philippines has a…

The indigenous people of the Philippines are descendants of ancient Black people. Maybe the Australoids. Someone upthread said that the indigenous peoples were Austroneasian. Whatever they may be, it is clear that the indigenous Filipinos are more closely related to ancient Black people than to any other group. The…

Bruno has mixed heritage, he is also Puerto Rican and Ashkenazi Jewish. So I don’t know. Also, there is no true Filipino ancestry because we have been colonized by so many people.

MJ was cold as fuck when it came to business. He was all down with Paul McCartney, doing videos with him & shit and then bought the whole ass Beatles song catalog right from underneath him.

Mark Ronson is legit as fuck. I semi Stan for Mark. His production credits are off the chain.

Sometimes it feels like we take on the easy targets that don’t want to hit back instead of going hard on the ones that deserve it.

I hate that we’re even having this conversation. Miley Cirus and Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato and Katy Perry got away with actual appropriation. Miley might’ve been the worst offender in the history of mankind. She took from the culture, made it look like absolute trash, and then walked away from it when she got…

Bluegrass wouldn’t exist without the blues. If anyone tries to tell you that any form of American music that isn’t like, Native American folk music, doesn’t owe a significant debt to black musicians and culture then they are full of shit.

I mean, there are a couple arguments to be made here.

REALLY well put, Michael. Point 3 is something I’ve been thinking a lot about in this context: like, unless you’re exclusively making bluegrass music, you owe a huge amount of credit to black artists. That’s a damn FACT. So where does cultural appropriation start and stop?
