LOL, wow that dude is going off all over this thread - starting to suspect pickeledonions might actually be...Matt Damon?

He’s sooooooo insufferable. And seeing the other people in the room nodding along with him, the white woman jumping in with her virtuous little speech to try and reason away the racism, it’s enough to make the blood boil. But I feel like there’s a lot of guys who would watch this and just think ‘hey, based on merit!…

Same, though this article made me feel bad for the actors and crew who probably thought they were working on a much better show. Especially the body positive, queer + biracial kids who wouldn’t get to star as a lead on any other show because THEY ARE MINORITIES AND VERY OPPRESSED. The writers/producers are the real…

RIGHT?! She always looks good but this is another level. I actually looked up her whole dress:

I just desperately hope that prominent native authors aren’t going to be grilled about this. It’s a serious blow to the native lit community and it’s going to be really hard to process for many people who have been friends or fans. I’m Ojibwe and this news has broken many hearts. The saddest part to me is that many…

She wears them for basically every other public appearance. Not crazy if you’re an instagram model but certainly a weird aesthetic choice for a public official.

She’s wearing her creepy green contacts, which I’m sure she thinks make her appear sexily mysterious but actually just create a bizarre robot face.

for real but also, WHAT IS HIS SKINCARE ROUTINE. He looks 25 in the above trailer, and he looked 25 twenty five years ago.

Yes. And when kids grow up believing that the only way to survive in this world is to be constantly afraid, terrorism has won.

This is such an important story, extremely well and throughly reported but I’d also like to take a moment to appreciate the *spectacular* header artwork by Angelica Alzona. A striking image that relays the impact of the narrative with a simple, clear connection to a brand we all know so well is rare and hard to…

Can I just add; my sister is a kindergarten teacher. She became one because she is a gentle, empathetic, deeply caring woman who adores children and believes that the foundation for a true education starts with a good experience in your first classroom. Her mission is to make sure her kids will always look forward to…

that is def news to me - and I have to admit, I’m a little shocked! I agree, everyone gets to make their own choices, blah blah, but that just seems so extra sleazy. How has that fact not made it into all the write ups of that huge fight they had on the street? so weird.

Her whole persona is very different than Beyonce or Gaga - they are tightly controlled PR machines, they don’t make jokes or respond to instagram trolls with fun burns. Cardi is much goofier, off the cuff while also being self aware, glam while also being down to earth. There’s real charm in that.

TWO. POINT. FIVE. BILLION. DOLLARS.

For real. But what you’re saying really strikes at the heart of the problem - this is, for lack of a better term, the ‘ladies room’ of the internet. I can’t think of a single other forum where I learn as much from the comment section as I do from the articles, or a place where women’s opinions are valid by default.…

I was writing a response that was basically this, but not as well articulated. I hope you stay active here and comment more, I’d like to hear from you.

I don’t want to argue with you, we’re all hurting and the above article only reinforces how little support victims of abuse, women or men, can expect from the world. I engaged with this comment drama because it is hard to watch from the sidelines, knowing that everyone involved (excluding the trolls, or course) is in…

Dude. This community is full of trauma, we come here to help each other.
 

I mean, if nothing else, we human beings are remarkable for our ability to intentionally create problems and then come up with wild solutions for them.

I read her interview talking about how she spent weeks with real sex workers from that era and how she wanted to do their story justice, it really made me excited about the show. But I loathe Franco so I haven’t been able to get through even the first episode. He’s unwatchable!
