I am a lady and I’ve never said this to anybody in my entire life but I’m gonna say it to you: You can go fuck yourself on the head.

“Brooklyn Nine-Nine manages to address gay rights thoughtfully with little fanfare. Other mainstream shows strike a self-congratulatory tone when taking on gay issues.” (source)

“While Nine-Nine’s inclusion of a gay man of color who’s over 50 (Holt’s age is not directly mentioned, but Braugher is currently 51) as a lead on a prime-time comedy would be enough to pique our interest, the show actively combats the homophobia that has become standard fare in buddy-cop comedies.” (source)

❝ There are no black people on Game of Thrones. You don’t see one black person in Lord of the Rings. And though Star Wars had featured a few black characters—Billy Dee Williams as a smuggler, Samuel L. Jackson as a peripheral Jedi—they were less represented in the galaxy than Ewoks. I ain’t paying money to always see one type of person on-screen. Because you see different people from different backgrounds, different cultures, every day. Even if you’re a racist, you have to live with that. We can ruffle up some feathers. ❞

La Valiente: the Woman We’ve Been Waiting For

‪When Yuyi Morales got word of a call for submission looking for loud, unapologetic women artists to respond to Trump’s misogyny and racism, she had the perfect pitch: La Valiente.‬

‪“In the most classic version of Lotería, the card for El Valiente, The Brave One, depicts a man standing up in a ready-to-fight pose and holding a knife in one hand and a zarape in the other. But to me such has never been the right image to depict courage. So, I made my own version, hence, La Valiente,” Morales writes.‬

‪We agree. La Valiente is just the woman we need for these times!‬
