I have been asking for this movie for years, literal years. Every time they make a biopic about some random white man I’m like “Really? This person got a biopic and Harriet Tubman doesn’t have a biopic?” And I am SO tired of slave movies that are all about the “downtrodden, beaten” nature of enslaved people.

They’re *tripping*. Serena is obviously already a legend! She’s second in the record books for number of Grand Slams, with motherfucking 23. 23!!! This far she’s proven very capable of managing her own time and talent so they can butt right the fuck out. Plus if Serena never wins another Grand Slam but wins pay…

I bet you if she helps win equal pay for them they won't be backing out of those topped up paychecks!

My first thought upon hearing this was a delighted “Oh wow, Halle Bailey is basically a mermaid anyway!”, lol

Actually, I think any black politician could anticipate fear-based questions about their relationship to and thoughts about white people. Especially after the Obama era.

...why should it change, though? If I go make something cool and original and then you come rip it off by making a slightly different game with all the same assets and stuff, why should I not want to shut you down?

Exactly this.

It’s a medical school. There has to be some line. This isn’t really any better than if they took a grant from Marlboro.

Hahahaha oh this is so bad

That’s because you’re a racist fuck.

This doesn’t matter. You’re arguing a point that’s way out from why you originally posted the comment, which was to try to disprove that Dylann Roof - a person who had just murdered nine people - got Burger King on the way to jail, which is better treatment than a 10-year-old boy who did absolutely nothing.

It’s a start. I share with you the words of MLK:

At least two. Don’t forget Selma, Lord, Selma.

You have absolutely zero understanding of economics, don’t you? How you gonna tell a single mom making minimum wage to just “save up” enough money to buy the beauty shop she’s been dreaming of when she has to choose between rent and food?

And? I don’t complain when wypipo buy gold plated toilets and private jets and cocaine and shit like that. If I want to buy a pair of Js and some edibles with my reparations money, who are you to judge? It’s my money anyway!

I’m not trying to minimize the decision to donate one’s uterus, because obviously there are health effects that should be considered. But those risks are all elevated in menopause anyway because a woman’s hormone levels change at that time. The risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease shoots up after…

Overall I agree with you, but research money is a zero sum game. There’s a finite amount if it each year, and devoting resources to certain things means other things get less research. I’d be willing to bet my next paycheck that the money that gets invested into improving infertility treatments is an order of…

Probably because for years she did exactly the opposite and refused to become politically engaged. I think that was, in large part, because she was still considered a country star and the country genre is notoriously conservative, so she felt like she couldn’t speak out without endangering her standing amongst fans.…

I like Taylor Swift, but the criticism about her not doing it ‘sooner’ wasn’t petty. Because she put out the call to action a day before registration closed in TN, a lot of the media ascribed the sudden jump in registration to her. But activists who have been working in voter registration for decades say that they alwa…

I have a PhD in psychology from a department with a strong cognition and neuroscience bent. I remember asking one of our seminar speakers - a semi-prominent neuroscientist - whether he had found or even considered gender or racial differences in a study he was presenting (which had clear, glaringly obvious potential…
