Loving how Deja out-Randalled Randall. 

When they showed that fast-forward future scene, I was wondering if Susan Kalechi Watson said she wasn’t sitting for aging makeup that day, because damn if she didn’t look like present-day Beth who’d just missed a few nights’ sleep. Randall looked like her Daddy in those scenes. And I have to say...the woman that is…

I am SO glad that folks finally realized that we’re not a monolith. I too did not grow up with a black card, and faced many taunts of being “white” for the way I talked, for growing up in the suburbs and for turning my nose up at chitlins. It wasn’t until college (at an HBCU) when I was finally granted provisional…

I liked seeing Winston Duke as the Anti-M’Baku in this movie. It was great to see him play the corny Every Dad who just didn’t get it. That combination of horror and humor made the movie for me.

Yeah, I’ve come to the conclusion that Jordan Peele hates us. But I love him for it.

1. There were several times in the movie when Faux Adelaide showed her “Tethered” origins. Not being able to hold a conversation on the beach....when she killed the white wife, she made that grunting sound the rest of the Tethered did. And when they were driving away in the ambulance, Fauxdelaide gave the son that…

I HATE horror movies...but there was no way in the world that I wasn’t going to see the movie that made me dread hearing I Got Five On It. It seemed like there were a lot of people who were so excited to “get” it before the end of the movie, but I was content to let it wash over me. I do feel like I need to see it…

I felt the same way...it just felt way too young for me and I couldn’t get into it. But I’m glad I didn’t give up. I’ve really enjoyed Episodes 4-6. What I love about this show is the inclusion of LGBT characters whose storylines are weaved in seamlessly. I really love the character Ari....you don’t often see a…

I’m guessing that we’ve seen the origins of how Beth ended up where she is and we’ll get a bit more in the next episode when we see how she and Randall met. I’m guessing that Beth’s mother pushing her to stop dancing and take a “traditional” path to success has finally come to a head. Beth got a taste of her dream…

If there was ever a need for a universal “Undo” button, that ish was it. I really couldn’t understand why Randall went in like that. And on voicemail, no less. Bruh.

When a friend and I were visiting Montreal, we wandered into a small cafe. I was greeted by the hostess, who seated us and left menus on the table. My friend pointed out to me that she couldn’t read hers, because they were in French. Apparently I’d spoken in French to the hostess well enough that she thought we…

That may be true, but I’ve found that “business” parts of the language helped me a lot in being able to communicate. When I was first learning Spanish, I could order food, shop, ask for/give directions, etc. but couldn’t hold a conversation. Being able to do those things goes a long way and at least allows you to make…

This is a good assessment of the film...it can be unpleasant and very uncomfortable at times.

Just saw the movie...is it wrong that when I saw the Kree home planet, it made me think of Wakanda? Black Panther’s shadow is looooong.

Oh, it’s not just you. Yara was one of my favorite parts of Black-ish, but she’s giving me distinct Denise Huxtable vibes on Grown-ish, and I’m really surprised that the writers seem to be leaning in to it. She’s easily the most annoying of her friend group. It’s like they took that side of her that you saw on…

This gave me LIFE!!!

This movie felt like it had all the ingredients to be great, but it just wasn’t as a whole. I really enjoyed parts of it. Sarah Paulson was my favorite character...the fence turned suburban housewife schtick worked for her. Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham-Carter also were really good.

My legs laughed at the coconut oil/almond oil blend that I put on last night. This morning, I heard “Baby, what is you doin?” coming out of my pants leg. I gave up.

The only reason all of these folks are coming out publicly with these day late/dollar short “condemnations” of R. Kelly is optics. It’s insane that it took this long for folks to feel like they had to come out and say something. Kudos to those who did it a long time ago and without prompting.

That was disgusting. I felt like I needed to wash my mind out with soap, and I didn’t even watch the whole performance.
