The bathroom subplot in Hidden Figures is dumb for many reasons, but the top one I can’t get over it is...
Why did her boss vandalize the colored bathroom sign? In a building that, as far as we all know, only has black people in it? How does that fucking help Katharine, you eedjit? You absolute buffoon? If you want a physical symbol to show she is welcome to use the bathrooms at your building ---which is what she actually needs--- then you should be smashing the “whites only” sign at your building.
What the fuck are you breaking a bathroom miles away for. What the fucking hell does that even mean.

WTF!#do you think the black computers just trying to work appreciate a white man barging in with a melee weapon?#have you lost your marbles?
