Um, MLK went to jail dude. So you think he’s an asshole?

She is not desperate for roles. She has enough clout to pass on this. Without her name attached that movie would have been left to languish in development hell like Akira or shuffled off to Netfilx to be mocked.

Self-checkouts are eliminating the need for cashiers. Maybe that’s what’s being referenced?

The anime is currently streaming on Netflix. If people want to watch it, they can watch right now.

“Adapt” doesn’t mean “make the main characters white.” As stated in the article, there are Asian people in America.

There are “white leaves” in every African American’s family tree because of that whole slavery thing. Even within a single family, we often have different shades.

It’s New York. We all ignore everything here.

Are you black? Don’t fucking speak for me or people like me.

I know what it is. I also know it’s not offered at any take out place I’ve ever seen in NYC but served to Chinese-speaking customers who ask for it, hence “less palatable to Western tastes” like I said.

Like how Chinese food places have the “secret” menu of stuff that I guess is less palatable to western taste like congee?

Y’know what’s funny about that? Go to any sushi buffet in Manhattan. All the chefs are Mexican. Meanwhile all the Chinese people are making fast Mexican food. I call it “Chexican” and it’s cheap and delicious! 

This is a bummer. I’ve always had good experiences with ModCloth.

I realized my family was poor in Kindergarten. Everyone in my class had mats for naptime. I had an old brown towel.

That is super messed up and kind of classist.

Star for “baby hooker”

No snark but what do you suggest we do instead?

Did you not read the actual article? It plainly states that Dash was referred to as “the black girl” by Roger Ailes. Her only worth to Fox “News” was to counter claims of racism and now that the black president is gone they don’t need her.

They love us as long as we shuck and jive. Then they can say how not racist they are and get cookies for diversity.

When I was about 12 I let it slip to my mother that I was an atheist. She grabbed my wrist, twisted it and told me never to say that again. Keep in mind, no one in my family had been to church or even talked about going to church since I was born. It was just expected that I would love Jesus.
