Let all just collectively sob this one out, y’all.

I want to. I want to feel schadenfreude so very badly, but the schadenfreude is so shitty when it also affects me...

Yeah, I mean, look at what happened between Robert Palmer and Mystik. Mystik just belittled him and basically called him a child... as if that in and of itself isn’t problematic (sigh).

I like how you’ve remained completely calm throughout this whole interaction with Mystik, yet you’re the “angry” one that’s “overreacting” - “You don’t have to be offended on Margaret’s behalf.” Like, seriously? So annoying. More patience than me. That’s for sure.

You’re right. I forgot white people are saviors.

Thank you so much for bringing that up. This is just my observation. This honestly feels like some code-switching here. I mean, I do it unconsciously sometimes, too. As a POC, you often feel like an ambassador of your race/ethnicity, and you turn into this calm AF ombudsman. You see Cho’s honest inner-monologue a lot…

Pop up churches

I’m just going to reply to myself because I refuse to be the one who ungreys Trollocomotive, but to answer the question, these awards continue to demonstrate that white people can still use the same old, used-up tropes and get rewarded, while showing POC that they get turned away, despite working on something truly…

Exactly

Have you seen Atlanta?

Add rewarding white mediocrity. Oh my gosh, a show about a white male protagonist who is an underappreciated genius. So very unique. Also, Lakeith’s suble comedy is just 😗👌 muah

Ugh! You need more stars.

Thank you for being the only sane person on this thread. All these butthurt commenters above you are lame AF.

“...when it comes time to shoot season 8 of the reality show.”

When I was in my college newspaper, I wrote a column about why I nor anyone should be shamed for wearing makeup (at 21, not so much teen, but I looked like a teen, so blow me), and the features editor (who I was secretly fucking) laughed so hard when I brought it up in our staff meeting, proceeded to interrupt me and…

Jane Magazine was definitely more formative for me, but it definitely wasn’t a “teen magazine” - I just read it as a teen, but that’s where I learned about feminism.

Yeah, but there would be outrage on both sides. We need to get rid of the EC no matter what - it’s outdated AF, established to give more power to the slave- owning south. I don’t see another scenario in the foreseeable future where there would be sufficient outrage from constituents on both sides to foster the idea…

I mean, they’re techinally agreeing with the popular vote electorate...

Here’s my take. The electoral college dissents. Then, we get rid of the electoral college. Badaboom, Badaboom. Bipartisan support. Everyone gets what they want.
