Diego Pavia acts how people want you to think Shedeur acts.

This is where it stopped being funny to me. Losing his job is one thing. But I never want to see a Black man in jail.

The Best Movies of 2025 Variety chief film critics Peter Debruge and Owen Gleiberman name the year's best movies, including 'One Battle After Another' and 'Marty Surpeme.'

And no Sinners? Seriously?! variety.com/lists/best-m...

Who knows the movie?

OU is a mess. They have a history of doing this kind of stuff quietly. I’m happy it’s coming to light.

But wait. No Delroy Lindo? *sigh*

What breed?

🥰🥺

An absolute LEGEND.

It's Official: The Original Theatrical Cut of 'Star Wars' Is Coming Back to Theaters Lucasfilm is celebrating the film's 50th anniversary on February 17, 2027, in the best possible way.

I’ve got this on a broke down, beat up VHS, but have not been able to watch it.

Disney: just put this on your streaming service. No one likes the remastered version. Not even George Lucas’s mama.

I said what I said. A gentrified Black pop song. That is, one that is tailored for white ears.

Oh, I agree with that. However, can I just miss BOTH?!

👀

I don’t like what what I’m seeing.

If Delroy Lindo is not nominated for best supporting actor at the Oscars, I will riot.

Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ is gentrified Black pop Christmas music. And I will die on that hill. 🥱

This is a VERY early piece. The first thing I ever wrote that when viral…way before I knew what that meant. It is rough. And unpolished. But it is an inexperienced writer trying to speak his truth as a Black and Indigenous person. www.counterpunch.org/2015/11/26/d...
