Running through the 6 with Great Sorrow

okay but imagine if the roommate you’d known for like, a few months woke you up in the middle of the night while you were all staying at your cousin’s house on a road trip and they were bleeding profusely and speaking in an accent you’d never heard them use

fellatio sounds like a supporting shakespeare character rather than oral sex on a penis to be honest

Black woman invents or popularises a phrase -> it enters the vernacular and circulates widely amongst Black and nonblack people -> people removed from the phrase's initial context read it too literally, do not interpret it with sensitivity, assume that the ideas expressed when people use it are shallow / "over"-sexualised / problematic in some way or another that mirrors their feelings about Black people as a whole -> there is a backlash where a supposedly more 'thoughtful,' 'subversive,' etc. alternative to the initial phrase is offered, implying that the initial phrase contained none of that complexity within it -> rinse & repeat

In addition, and this is the part that people don't like- you actually should report people for racism in their "offline" life. People don't stop being racist when they log off. If you're a racist online, guess what you'll be at work? A racist. Someone being held accountable for their racist ideology should not be the faux pas- being racist ought to be. Let go of that comfort that Whiteness affords you.

I hope Paul Robalino keeps showing up in game changer episodes as a genre-specific adjudicator with a funny last name

my birthday is in july! :)

It's actually super unethical to keep a peeve as a pet

Embarrassing fact about me is that it took me so so long to be able to tell Ross Bryant and Grant O'Brien apart. I'm sorry guys you're both tall white dudes with similar-sounding names and very very similar voices. I would just wait for the first sex joke or Shakespeare reference.

I feel better now because everyone in the notes is like "yeah same".

I love how Zohran Mamdani is wearing a suit everywhere. And if he has anything else he puts it ON TOP of the suit. A basketball jersey. A high-vis vest. All worn over the suit. He’s like the mayor character in a cartoon who’s always dressed as The Mayor. If I didn’t know who he was and he biked past me in NYC I’d be like holy shit was that the mayor

choosing to believe that brennan always had something like this in store for thjazi, and just had to wait and see who fucked up the worst at the wake

and if, by some miracle, all of these characters managed to stay on their best behaviour all night, he could have set it off himself by making aranessa a touch less composed or more drunk and letting her throw the punch she so badly wanted to throw at wicander
