What in the frying fuck was that? 👀

i think frying fuck is better than flying fuck so i hope that was intentional and not a typo but anyway…

i wish i could answer that??

i mean he’s not dead, that’s a given, right? we know he’s confirmed and fairly high billing for season 3. we know turner made a deal to save his life. but what does he want? beth still? and that means rio and turner are gonna work together to take her down? i mean yeah if she shot me three times i would want to take her down too…

i don’t necessarily agree with people saying beth pulling the trigger was completely ooc…. like she has gradually evolved from we don’t do that to wanting to sell out eddie to being willing to shoot boomer, etc, this could be the next evolutionary step… especially with rio literally forcing her hand.

but i honestly don’t know lmao like ???

idk i have a lot of feelings. i’m still trying to process them?

“I remember an incident from my own childhood, when a very close friend of mine and I, we were walking down the street. We were discussing whether God existed. And she said he did not. And I said he did. But then she said she had proof. She said, ‘I had been praying for two years for blue eyes, and he never gave me any.’ So, I just remember turning around and looking at her. She was very, very Black. And she was very, very, very, very beautiful. How painful. Can you imagine that kind of pain? About that, about color? So, I wanted to say you know, this kind of racism hurts. This is not lynchings, and murders, and drownings. This is interior pain. So deep. For an 11 year-old girl to believe that if she only had some characteristic of the white world, she would be okay. [Black girls] surrendered completely to the master narrative. I mean the whole notion of what is ugliness, what is worthlessness. She got it from her family, she got it from school, she got it from the movies — she got it everywhere; it’s white male life. The master narrative is whatever ideological script that is being imposed by the people in authority on everybody else. The master fiction, history, it has a certain point of view. So, when these little girls see that the most prized gift that they can get at Christmastime is this little white doll, that’s the master narrative speaking: “This is beautiful. This is lovely, and you’re not it.”
