No prob. The initial insult to Diplo when he played a track for her was that it sounded like “airport reggae”. Duty free shops are the stores in airports where you can buy items at discounted and often tax-free prices (hello white Hennesy). Airport=Dutyfree. So a clever recall to a earlier burn that is both succinct…

he specified “active” members.

She is clearly is doing what she pleases and that delights me as well. Also my girl is Bajan and where was the lie, and I say this as a fan of Major Lazer who wishes them the best (a former college mate is part of their group).

Laughing my ass off at #Dutyfree. But let’s not pretend like these producers are not out here watering down Caribbean people music and then trying to call it “tropical house”.

I think Gawker parent site being shut down and the election foiled their plans for a TMZ hellmouth. The Slot consistently gets a good number of views\comments. No shade, but when Teen Vouge becomes more consistent than you its time to get it together.

I think they purposefully leave it untagged. I noticed around the time they talked about making Jezebel a purely gossip site they’d release the shitty articles during the times the am\pm dirt bags came out to trick you into clicking on it. I don’t bother unless its tagged.

El Dorado 15yrs or older. It’s a Guyanese rum they have it in most liquor stores now. The best is the 5o yr old but I don’t think they sell it state side.  

This is one of the main reasons why I loved the show The Knick. Looking at the things that we used to consider standard of care was a trip. My favorite was the Mercury steam treatment.

Right, I lived in Ohio for a while and have been to Kentucky, west Va, western MD, and PA (had family in philly). Anyone that would refute the point FFS was making has either never been to those places or is in the abyss of denial.

Well if that’s your metric, then most Maryland, rural PA, and large swaths of rural NY are The South too.

Extra stars for BIG :)

No. Marriage is a societal concept. That is why it can also exists in cultures that don’t necessarily have religion as you are probably thinking about it. I think the issue is you’re trying to combine a centuries old practice with your limited ideas and so its never going to click for you.

I once went to one of those salon chains in the mall to get my eye-brows done and I specifically said to the waxer “no-sperm” brows, I even drew a blasted picture. She proceeded to fuck up the brow beyond my wildest imagination. I told her she was not touching my other brow, and I would not be paying. The manager…

Im going to say probably would not be. They are still crying about the live action Full Metal Alchemist because they just know that Japanese characters that speak Japanese created by a Japanese woman are really white.

Yes to all of that but it still has to be a multi-pronged approach in all aspects of media (don’t forget this includes mediums that are not necessarily television), mainly for the benefit of people of color, but also:

I was specifically referring to the portion where you mention looking to places other than popular media. And I was responding that we have been doing that as a people for a long time. The counter argument when people bring up diversity or inclusion of any kind is “look somewhere else” or “make your own”. Your…

They do fawn over lighter skin as a beauty standard, but Japanese see anime characters as Japanese. Whiteness is the default in the world at large that is why everyone else sees the characters as white.

All of anime, but the way that white supremacy is set up...

So you just hopped, skipped, and jumped over the whole sentences where they explained exactly how they were already doing that. With all the disrespect, what is the point of your comment? We’ve BEEN doing that for centuries, can you offer some imagitive or constructive that is not along the line of “stick with the…
