Late to the spades talk but I also never played that.

But Dominoes? Now that I can fuck with even though it's Mario Kart for the non-gaming old Haitians.

Fuck her. Fuck her for essentially killing Emmet Till. Fuck her for taking all this damn time to confess, even though we all know she lied. Fuck her for prospering all this time. And Fuck her for making it difficult for the actual victims of rape when the perpetrator is black (see Cosby, Nate Parker, R Kelly, etc).


Nope. Not in my bedroom. You can take that fantasy and shove it up your ass.

I used to love it back in the day (Dragonball, Sailor Moon, Gundam, etc.) then I just kinda fell off.

Well if you like old school anime, may I recommend Jojo's Bizarre Adventure? Old school shobem with interesting twists.

So parent gaf how do you guys explain to your kid, that to many if not all of the institutions in the us that your essentially still a second class citizens.

I don't have kids myself, but whenever me and my girlfriend talk about having kids it's something that depresses me.

Just watched moonlight. I'm conflicted. I think its somewhat overrated. And one of those By us, but not for us movies. It could have easily been replaced with white people in poverty and had the same effect for me.

Great acting and camera work though.

The film seemed to be centered on the idea of black masculinity as a "performance" so, I think I Moonlight is very much an inherently black film.

The concept of the "black male" is such a specific concept, that I think what makes this film special would be lost with an all white cast.

One thing about the film did disappoint me though...

Mahershala Ali is in the movie for like five minutes then he's just abruptly killed off screen.

Viktor is a damn liar.

Thanks. I was worried it might be too subtle, but it ain't that hard to google the meaning.

Waiting for the reactions to it come thread time. I think it's apt, especially in the context of the thread. And for anyone else who isn't, y'know, your straight, white male living in middle class or more life. Subtle enough people might not even notice unless they're looking for it.

I just found out what Twitter looks like when you don't sign on. "What's Happening?" indeed.

Also, does anyone else here do music as a hobby? I'm interested to hear how often you guys partake in it. I don't have much time to do it anymore.

For those that are on a New Edition kick following the mini series

Spotify added the Expanded Versions of 'New Edition' , 'All For Love', 'Heart Break' and 'Home Again'

Plus of course, the BBD album is out too. Which isn't bad, not touching 'Poison' but is much better than their last two albums nobody talks about

So.

I wanna make a thread about how a series with 1000 year old dragons that look and act like prepubescent children, marriages that result in instant time traveling adult offspring, and characters that literally hop in your game from different parts of the franchise somehow still finds a gay couple that results in a child breaking suspension of disbelief. You mean to tell me in a game where the main character literally turns into a goddamn dragon to fight another dude that also turns into a goddamn dragon, a child born of two of the same sex is a bridge too far?

But I'm 10000% certain that I know how that thread goes down. And let's not even start with how there are no black people in this fantasy realm. "But it's made in Japan" motherfucker Nintendo knows blacks exist. Look at Pokémon, ffs.

Also, my phone autocorrects Pokémon with the accent and everything. GJ apple.

I'm referring to Fire Emblem btw. I just remembered that some people might not have excellent taste in games.

That shit pissed me off. Y'all ain't got nooooooo problem with Loli dragons or Loki's with giant tits, but two men having a time traveling baby, THATS where you draw the line? Come on, the game is designed for the kids to be based on the dad's anyway.

Also fuck you Nintendo release the special edition more I ain't t paying $200 for it off a scalper.

I buy FE digital, cause I think that in some parallel universe I'd actually replay it. Plus there's them gold points.

Also, there's no way in the world I think that Camilla is even slightly straight in a Fem!Corrin Conquest. There's a lot of characters that should be bisexual in Fates especially.

I can understand that. I'm just hoping we'll get Act V before 2018 rolls around.
