It is wild to take time out of your day to support an abuser. I don't even like to take time out my day to support good stuff. And I can't vouch for nobody but me, like Mr. Pink said, so how you look tryna vouch for folk who doing crimes on kids?

The furthest I'm going in supporting somebody is if a Black woman being slandered with no receipts, I'ma wait on the evidence of what she did. But writing letters and things of that sort, when you simply do not know? Nah. Especially not for nobody that fit the demographics. Let the law they love so much be on they side.

The Bear S3 Thoughts/Feelings at 4am

Warning: So much hateration below. I'm disappointed overall. It's gorgeously shot and the acting is still top tier from the main cast, but OOF.

See below the cut

I want to say this first. Napkins, Tina's episode, was lovely. Okay, moving forward...

The first couple episodes started off so strong and then….what was this?!?I LOVED THE FIRST EPISODE SO MUCH. Episode 2 was pretty good, but soon the energy was off, it was painfully slow in some places, THE FAKS ARE NOT FUNNY, Claire "haunted" the whole season and it wasn't even her fault. Most of the "comedy" came from those Fak morons, instead of our LEADS, like Richie for example. It got so bad, I faced an existential crisis during "Ice Chips." I literally started thinking, "It's just a show. It doesn't matter." Seriously, I have real life problems and this show is not only, not an escape right now, but who cares?!?!

Anyways, Donna and Nat acted their butts off, but Ep 8 was too long when we needed more development from the others. And where was Carmy during the delivery?!!? And finally Sydcarmy, FINE, if they want to go the platonic route, after placing her at the literal center of his relationship all S2, but it felt like their soul connection was severed now. They teased us so bad at the end of Ep 1, gave us a trickle in the ep 2-3, and then...nothing, unless you count Syd's panic attack. My heart dropped when she wasn't the first to notice how messed up Carmy was at the Ever dinner. Plus, he's hasn't picked up on her inner turmoil for weeks!!!!! Aren't these two supposed to be close friends with a shared passion according to Chris, Joana, Ayo, Jeremy, and the Anti-BW/WM Brigade on Reddit? I doubt I'll be staying up until 4am to binge S4 next year.

Did Chris and Joana let the acclaim get to their heads and they fell off? Matty (Neil Fak) is a producer, but is he blackmailing them to be in 9/10 episodes?? John Cena's cameo felt like it was 4 hours.

Saddest part I have to go back to. I guess the cast really wasn't lying about Sydcarmy for S3. Basically, Syd and Carmy barely know each other anymore. I HATE IT HERE. Looking forward to other more positive takes on the season and Sydcarmy.

One of the most beautiful aspects of Richonne that we get to see in TOWL cannot be detached from the fact that this is a BW and a WM. Because Michonne is one of the (arguably THE) most absolutely badass TWD characters. Argue with the wall. And she is STRONG. And not just physically, but also mentally (not to say that she doesn’t lose it at times -they all do at one point or another with the sh*t they see and live through). But the way her character is written she definitely falls into the Strong Black Female TM trope (I never read the comics but from I know, it’s considerably worse there). (And I would argue we as an audience are guilty of it too. Even with Richonners & Michonne fans, I feel like as a whole I’ve seen a lot more discussions and more in depth discussions about the trauma Rick has endured than the one Michonne has…). And Rick is THE lead of the show. He is who the audience and TF has been following since day 1. And while in TOWL for a good chunk of time we see him at his most broken, we also know how ruthless Rick can be (and were waiting for that version to show itself) to protect his loved ones. The man literally bit out someone’s throat. He is not to be f*cked with. And yet, you put Michonne next to him and he absolutely melts. Can’t keep his eyes his hands his mouth his {redacted} off her-crazy about her. Constantly telling her he loves her and giving her these big declarations of love. And gifting things left and right. He is kissing the ground e walks on. And to see this dark skinned woman, this Strong Black Woman TM being this ADORED -so loudly, so unapologetically, so proudly- by *this* man is just breathtaking.

Just another reason richonne is the greatest of all time 🥰🥰🥰

I’d just like to say to the SydCarmy truthers that I only joined the bandwagon because I love a BW x WM ship 😩 I’m sorry it’s my guilty pleasure. Then I actually watched the show and fell in love. Like the lil touches, the eye contact, the table scene, the CHEF COAT. OMGGGG. Chris Storer is doing something to my mind.

The way you WW will twist yourselves into pretzels to give a WM the benefit of the doubt when he’s already commuted egregious crimes, is astounding, but not surprising! What is left to prove that he’s wanting to be a dictator?!!

WW, this is why BW doesn’t trust you. She’s bending herself into pretzels to give a man who facilitated an insurrection, the benefit of the doubt. This is why we are holding our applause for you until the numbers come out, after election day.

How Colorism fuels BW/WM swirls in media

I guess this is maybe a counterpoint/companion post to this one and the dialogue started with @theonlyamazingtazmin in the comments.

That post was an ask that black women set personal boundaries around how the ship and media about the ship is effecting our well being. But an equally important conversation is why do we so often have to look to interracial couples for a well written romance for dark skinned black women. While I'm cautious about the level in investment in these pairings, I cannot deny the appeal and why it's almost a default because of how much romance for dark skinned black woman is gate kept.

My initial remedy to this frustration of how we attach ourselves to this pairing was, we need to watch and support black romance and and black tv shows and movies. But a lot of the problem is in doing just that. I watched mostly black shows in my youth and the pattern was already established of me always seeing the dark skin woman alone or butch while the lighter girls had their pick.

My favorite show as a teen was A Different World. And as ground breaking as that show was in many respects I do have to call out the paradigm it reinforced. Dwayne was obsessed with Whitley, the whitest looking woman shown on campus, and he was the darkest man shown on campus. Ron liked her best friend, Millie, a light skin girl, after that wasn't a thing it was like so crazy that he ended up with Jaleesa. His mom (the fab Patti LaBelle) kept telling him to get with the dark skinned girl with the pretty teeth, but it was like he resisted vehemently beforehand. He does, but then ends up with biracial Freddy and Jaleesa ends up with an old man and becomes a stepmom as her best option.

Back when I had HBO (I only pay for one subscription at a time and my current roommates decided to do the Disney+ package, but I only end up watching Hulu) I watched Insecure but didn't finish. I'm curious to see what happened romantically with the characters. Did they follow the same playbook? I don't want to be spoiled because I hope to continue that show one day, so please don't tell me. But I remember in the precursor to this show, Awkward Black Girl, Issa's love interest was a like pretty average, kinda lame white guy. Her black crush never panned out. I kind of rooted for her and white boy but like not that enthusiastically. I just wanted her to be loved, so tried to be into it, but honestly was like, is this her best option? I didn't finish because it frustrated me that he was her best option. Personal note: I need to finish an Issa Rae show.

Fast forward to literally as of yesterday. I started watching Queen Sugar (Hulu tries to represent black shows and movies but the selections aren't the best, if anyoen has recs, please share) because I said I want to watch more black entertainment like I did in my youth. The most recent try before this was Atlanta and I just wasn't impressed. Come to find out how douchey Donald Glover is about black women and got turned off. Anyways, I did get invested in QS after a few episodes and even cried. So what turned me off a bit and I hope doesn't put me off the show? Spoiler alert: The darkest woman, Nova, is a white cop's mistress. This isn't revealed right away. It opens with them having a sensual morning after but for some reason despite him being hot, I felt ick. Like, I predicted there was something ick coming, and sure enough she's the long term side piece. Her fine af dark skinned brother's ex is a light skinned woman and there seems to be a mild flirtation with his son's Latina teacher. The light skinned sister is married to a man about her skin tone. The aunt who is medium skin tone has a husband darker than her. So it kind of reinforced the colorism and that Nova's only option out of everyone else has to be a white man, and a white man that can't fully commit to her at that.

Now, let me jump back to why I got so invested in Richonne. I know some people probably like does this girl only hardcore ship traumatized curly haired blue eyed white men with dark skinned black women? Not intentionally, haha! But that was the most epic love story I've seen with a black woman who looks anything like me. I wasn't even expecting to ship anything on that bleak ass show. Not my fault. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough? But yeah, when I reached my adult years I kind of got tired of looking for the romance I wanted to see, that represented me, in black media and being disappointed. Because the dark skinned girls didn't get the same love as the lighter ones (or they are lesbians but that's a whole other post). I'm not saying white media isn't guilty. It's just white media when they tend to give a dark skinned black woman a romance it's with a white man if she isn't alone or a lesbian, just like black shows, but the romance tends to be deeper if it's main plot point, or at least that's what I see in Richonne and Carmy x Sydney.

I think there is a good and bad side to this. On one hand yes, give it to me. On the other is it only palatable for a dark skinned black woman to get love in a show with a mixed cast with a white man because there is still and aversion to black love for these women? It's so complex. This is why when I wrote my Syd and Carmy fic I intentionally made her ex a dark skinned black man. Carmy is mad jealous of him. It's not a real love triangle, he just frames it as one because he's insecure of her highly successful, young Idris Elba looking almost fiance, who her dad loves and is a family friend. So, of course Carmy is in his feelings. Although Syd dated white guys I didn't want the strongest competition to be another white guy. And I have Syd speak to the lameness of these other white men on purpose, on multiple occasions. She was always kind of chasing a Carmy replica but not because they were white, it's because he imprinted on her. But she chased trying to be with her ex just as hard, but for different reasons and in a different way.

Anyways, I don't even know what to expect from media at this point because often what we see onscreen does reflect reality. I'll describe myself. I'm a petite, slim curvy girl, cocoa complexion, kinky curly who often gets that "so pretty for a black girl" type compliment in the black community and from racist white people. My dating history has been mixed and mostly white (two Asians also in the mix) in my latter years by default. When I was in high school the few black boys (I went to a mostly white school) chased the white, Latina, or light skinned girls. And the few that were interested were not desirable trouble makers. One was so bad he verbally abused me in front of people consistently and then I found out he had a crush one me. No thanks, red flags galore. The first somewhat decent boy that was interested and actually knew me was my white boy best friend who tried to make a move one day. I wasn't interested, didn't see it coming, but it started a pattern. I just wanted to be his bestie because we were both film geeks, had family trauma, were loners, smoked weed, and were in theater together. It's so funny because he was a dead ringer for Leonardo Dicaprio and all the white girls swooned for him and I was like eh (never thought Leo was all that). So, no, I didn't view him as a prize romantically. But this same type thing continued with white guy friends secretly having a crush and me like not being that excited. But one day I did like one, gave it a try, and was like, ok cool, I can try this. And since then I get way more interest from white men than black men.

*Caveat, I'm currently single and don't think race has any influence on quality of men. My long term Asian ex was the worst boyfriend of my life and I'm still traumatized. Long story.

So should I be this surprised that media reflects my same experience? I don't know what the solution is going forward. Like, will media change and influence society or does society need to change to influence media?

I keep rereading your top 30 list and you completely broke down my favorite scenes and why this is my crackship. So often in BW/WM relationships the woman isn’t cherished or treated like she’s beautiful without being fetishized. But from the moment Rick met Michonne he adored her, respected her, listened to her. Reading how your interpretations of their interactions is so validating and the naysayers need to get on board ASAP!

Thanks so much for this message and reading/re-reading the Top 30! I love that these posts are validating, especially since part of why I started this blog is because I remember thinking there are way too many receipts pointing to Richonne being a top tier love story in media for anyone to try and deny it, and I wanted to break it all down. 

And I wholeheartedly agree about how Michonne is so genuinely cherished by Rick in a way that is rarely depicted on screen and irl. It’s super meaningful. What’s especially great too is when it comes to Rick’s utter adoration and respect for Michonne, the shows never pat themselves on the back for it or forces it - they just approach it like this is how passionately and organically a man can and should love the incredible love of his life. I adore that Rick never once reduced Michonne to just a ‘weapon with a weapon’ and with each new layer he saw of her, he treasured her even more. ♡

[ambelle]

Do people really not get how nasty is is to keep claiming Mel was sleeping with Jayce to gain power over him?

I can say with certainty that the reason a lot of people claim that is because they resent her for getting in the way of Jayvik. Even though she as a character has absolutely nothing to do with that they need her to be a villain. They need it to be that Jayce didn’t chose this BW over a WM because who would do such a thing. So Jayce isn’t a willing participant he’s just a victim.

Others I’ll say maybe don’t get that by saying “Mel was sleeping with him for power but didn’t anticipate falling for him” they are saying she denied him consent initially. That makes their relationship rape by deception.

Others claim Jayce betrayed Viktor and so she successfully corrupted him. They even say things like “he’s a naive young man who wanted to be seduced” when he is literally 31 years old.

Regardless of the intention they are all demonizing a BW despite the narrative making it clear Mel and Jayce always had a crush on each other and Mel isn’t a bad person.

[hockeygossipdaily]

It’s perfectly normal for WM to only date WW. I won’t speak on other PoC, but plz stop wishing these hockey players on BW. Most of us do not care about or are attracted to HPs esp since they don’t look like they’re really packing if you know what I mean. We admire fine ass couples like Karl Anthony Towns and Jordyn Woods.

Ok listen, no one is bashing white men for going for white women. Their conditioned for that plus that could just be their preference just like black women are conditioned to be with black men because that’s what they grew up with and vice versa

We’re mainly talking about the fact players will sleep and hook up with women of a different race but not marry them because of hockey culture and “you’ll look better with a blonde on your arm.”

It would be refreshing to see the league become more diverse on and off the ice.

[cyarskj52]

How is it racist to point out a FACT? You don’t even know what a racist is! Majority of WW did vote in majority for Trump TWICE, with your numbers going up to 55% in 2020! You also voted in majority for all of the 🗑️ azz Republican WM, taking away women’s rights! Like you hews chase republican wm d*ck who be screwing over women’s rights including your own rights but when the black woman calls it out it’s racist?!? Bw vote for democracy, hews vote for suffering.
