Awesome! Thanks for the link.

The Nightly Show was just about the only Comedy Central show I watched (on YouTube and the CC website) and I am bummed that that it isn't on anymore. I really like Wilmore's delivery and I enjoyed him on the Daily Show as well. I hope he, and hopefully other folks from the Nightly show, get a show on another network, or online.


I'm not sure about eveyrone else, but Franchesca Ramsey has gotten a gig with MTV talking Social Justice issues called "Decoded".

Her latest video about White Fragility has spawned dozens of angry "Debunking" videos that are, of course, perfect examples of White Fragility.

As a Jew growing up generally separated from other Jews for most of my life I can relate to the experience of feeling too assimilated and far away from your own people. I grew up dealing with holocaust jokes from goyische kids but my Jewish friends told me i was "barely Jewish" because I wasn't familiar with the traditions. It sucks on both ends.


Anyway, here's a question that seemed a lot more important a week ago and i forgot to ask but has been bothering me for a bit: the word "boy" has become a popular term of endearment for men lately (eg, "good boy" "soft boy" ["adjective] boy") and generally i like it, but I have been hesitant to use it to describe Black men due to the thorny history with that word. I wanted to ask some of the men here how they would feel about being called that. My gut tells me I'm overthinking it and the context probably changes things, but my guts been wrong before so i figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Not "among black men", it's an internet/twitter thing where (mostly white) people talk about anime and video game characters by calling them good sweet [adjective] boys, because Griffin McElroy has taken total control of the web's linguistic trends.

yeah this was what I meant. Sorry it was unclear :(
