I will have what she is having
Wait I actually just realized a huge problem with the finale I’m going under the cut to rant
We only saw Dustin’s reaction to Eddie’s death?? Everyone else in this show bonded with and got close to Eddie one way or another. We didn’t see mike or Erica or lucas’ reaction to their FRIEND dying for the mission.
We didn’t get to see steve or robin or nancy react to it. I’m fact the only person who seemed to notice it happened at all was dustin?? It’s either bad writing or neglectful storytelling. Eddie deserved better.
Marvel really said we gave you the big three (aliens, androids,wizards) now we giving you homegrown people to hate. The flag smashers are there too.
I realize that I’m order to explain slavery to white people, you have to speak to them in their white language (true crime documentary). And I realize it’s not all white people so please use your comprehension skills when reading this.
Your ancestors were Jeffery Dahmers and Ed Geins of their generation, before there was a Jeffery Dahmer or Ed Gein 🙃. There, does that help you realize that this shit isn’t “a long time ago” for us? That this isn’t something that we can just “get over”? If your obsessive need to reintroduce serial killers to the masses by giving them sympathetic villain-esq movies then I don’t wanna hear shit about black people talking about slavery and systematic racism too much. Let me give you a list of what these people have done:
Used our teeth for dentures
Used our hair to stuff furniture because the cotton they had us pick was too valuable
Used our skin as leather
Whipped, burned, lynched, dismembered us
Sexually assaulted us and forced us to have their mulatto children that they wouldn’t claim unless it was as property
Wrote us down as cattle/livestock and didn’t consider us as human
Put us in zoos or kidnapped us for circuses
Use us as medical and scientific experiments (I.e, Henrietta Lacks, Sara Bothem, the way women are expected to give birth on their backs)
You don’t even wanna know where the term motherfucker came from so don’t ask
Manipulate the system to work in their favor even though they like to blame us and other minorities for its failures
Steal our work
This list can go a lot longer than this but just know, this isn’t a game. This isn’t old news, this isn’t some flyby night movie that’ll have Twitter all ablaze until the next scandalous topic pops up. This is a generational curse.
Hell, I'd be hype for this even if it weren't a true story!
summary: Simone wants a little quaint restaurant with an on site bakery where she can do what she loves. Ari wants to find love with a woman that loves him and not who he is. When he meets Simone his world is thrown for a spin. It takes everything in Simone to keep the soufflé from falling.
🍯. Prologue
the entire situation with that white woman asking quinta to put a school shooting storyline in abbott elementary is a reminder that it is not black people's responsibility to save yall.
don't believe that magical negro ahit you see in the media. stop expecting black people to do things everyone when they are the ones that had to fight for their own.
