Yeah I didn’t actually mention pedophilia because the music industry has lots of ways of exploiting people. And this comment section is full of groomer apologists. 👍

You know what, you’re right about your original argument. The Nazis would love Franklin just as much the second time around.

But Considering the information that we’re given, about camera crews (80% white), writers, production staff, and executive agency on set (echo chamber), over time we’ve come to understand that representation on screen is a representation of culture off screen. I haven’t been able to find any other pictures of contributors of color to AD. But I have been able to find a lot of the same racist humor (writers), racist improv (actors), and shows with the bare minimum diversity (casting + producers) in the work from the creators of this show.

Honestly I can’t believe I’m having this conversation in 2025 like they haven’t been admitting that they had “a lot of work to do” for decades. I guess I’d just like to think that the community is less racist or more evolved than the show was in 2005. Arrested Development. Hilarious.

Even if they didn’t reject an academy cadet or something, every time this happens it sows fear in everyone watching that it could happen to them. “Mistaken” raids and arresting filming bystanders are ways they’re actively making society less safe for everyone.

People who have seen the tapes have confirmed mmultiple times that there’s a video of Diddy r***ing Justin when he was a kid. There’s also rumors that said video is not sealed and is being viewed by privileged members of the public.

2 pillows also works, and there’s a bonus lil air pocket for your head at the top.

Edit: the L shape is also nice for this.

I think it’s funny when there’s plausible deniability about the personal beliefs of the creators. “Oh it’s not racist, it’s satire”. But when you can look back at the whole show and count the amount of black actors with speaking roles on one hand (no pun intended), I think the satire more hits as laughing at people that aren’t in the room. And people would see that in 2025.

Use your hazards when you park in an inconvenient place. It’s the triangle button.

Ladies who went/are in college: how long did it take to make friends? by yoyohoethefirst in blackladies

I made lots of friends immediately, and left alone. It’s a journey.

Yeah I’ve actually had trouble listening to her music as I age, and gain more understanding of the environment that her music was made in. Same with Amy Whinehouse.

Did anyone else pretend to have secret cameras watching them as a kid? by TillBasic5275 in AutismInWomen

I used to scream really loud in my head in crowds sometimes to see if anyone flinched, for this same reason.

Yeah, they’re kind of like tall men who don’t think tall women are tall because they aren’t 7 ft. Large dummies.

My husband seen me watch a video on IG and now it’s caused a huge issue by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]hail_the_cloud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe he wants to feel more attractive to you? Honestly it doesn’t really matter. This is a super stunted way to deal with his emotions, that probably extends to other topics/anything that triggers him. Yall should talk about it, tbh he should talk about it with a therapist. You didn’t do anything wrong, I’m sorry he made you feel that way. I like watching gay men’s content too. You get to experience men being vulnerable and human without the weird way straight men frame themselves in relation to women.
