I actually don’t think that being lighter-skinned, or biracial actually softens the blows of racism. In fact, I think it can expose people more to it, because people will say things to them or they’ll be among family or friends who will deal out these racial slights. This is my experience as a light skinned racially…

I’ve definitely been told that I’m not Black enough to call myself Black, but you make a very good point with this:

eta: the real, major selling point for me is that I’ve never broken a Torrid underwire. I always eventually destroyed my LB bras. Also, Torrid has good bra sales often.

I didn’t get a questionnaire, but when I cancelled they did ask me why and there is a section for you to write in your answer...so there’s that.

I haven’t found many others who agree, but I’ll honestly say that I’ve gotten more use out of Hulu in the last six months than I have Netflix, which is exactly why I cancelled my Netflix subscription not too long ago. Maybe it’s just you and me who think this though.

Yeah, I wouldn’t be horribly surprised if it came out that Spacey being gay had something to do with the quick response, but my money is on this being the biggest reason. People who are working on House of Cards can sue Netflix...people not connected to Netflix in anyway have no real leverage over them. It’s more…

That was suuuper confusing to me too. I know you can’t just be like “oh this judge is biased against me I want a new one” or else that’s what everyone would do all the time, but when you’re at the point where the FBI is investigating then isn’t there some sort of oversight that should step in?

I have literally never subscribed to a YouTube channel in my life...I’m not even 100% sure I know what that means, but I just subscribed to hers. After watching pretty much every video she’s posted. She’s delightful in every possible way.

You’re about to get a lot of questions about putting Pratt at #3 and ignoring Pine. Those will be legitimate questions.

No. Not at all. He literally spent the last half of it talking about his business pursuits, which he will certainly continuing profiting from. And, quite frankly, I wouldn’t be surprised if most of these moves had already been unofficially made.

Yeah, but also his business. He doesn’t want his businesses associated with the fact that he’s a rapist, because even if his stepping down from day-to-day roles, he’ll still be making money off of all his business ventures. He’s an asshole.

Not for nothing, but the person who killed him says she raised a shitty kid. Many others have come forward to say that not only was Matthew McCree not a bully, but that he was a good kid and a good friend. The truth, honestly, is probably somewhere in between as it is with most kids - that doesn’t mean this mother’s…

I’m sort of confused about some of the details in the case and can’t figure out how/when they changed. Maybe it’s just a matter of the school covering their asses, but when this was originally reported wasn’t the story that these three students had a week-long argument going on and that Cedeno stabbed them in…

Oh yea, he’s not apologizing to his victims at all. If he’s sincerely sorry in any way - IF - then it is in relation to his friends and family who now have the stink of being associated with him on them. He’s sorry for his lost reputation, not for his actions.

I find it interesting (though not really) that the people who defend Depp by saying that he wasn’t previously abusive can’t manage to take into account that he’s gone through many behavior changes in the past few years that he also didn’t necessarily exhibit before. He used to be a pretty good actor, now he’s a…

Can I just point out though, that there’s a legit difference between the “I’m color blind” bullshit and identifying as biracial.

I think how someone identifies when their race is clearly a point of discussion or inquiry is a little different from who/what they are in their everyday life.

She’s said this and similar things before, but here is an example:

I feel like all of this belongs in a scary movie...I was legitimately creeped out watching that first vid.

...as I’m still not sure she meant love-love or love-like-a-mother-love.
