Hulu's "Bad Hair" succeeds as a workplace comedy and loving sendup of 80s-era Black pop music, says @craftingmystyle.
But there's a missed opportunity to unpack the psychological impact of beauty ideals within Black communities and professional spaces.https://t.co/sXoYP1OeFD

They say racist hair discrimination
Drives a wedge through the heart of the nation
And if you ask all the woke
They will tell you it's no joke
And sufficient grounds for reparations(I really put some serious effort into this one, made sure the syllable counts were perfect etc.)

A seriously underrated reason for the struggles of black family formation is that the average black woman today sounds like she is going to make any man she is with completely miserable. They need a patriarchy with a serious emphasis on a man having a duty to provide financially for his family to reverse that trend.
On the visual physical level, this shows that the difference between white and black homo sapiens is not very big
Wow…kinky hair…wow…so different…wow…
But on the mental level there are vast differences
It almost makes you think that their is a concept of soul and that souls of the races are very different
This must be the dumbest era in history.
No nation, race, culture, civilization has ever elevated its minorities above the interests of its own people.
The proper choices of minorities in any civilization is either
-- integrate with the majority
-- accommodate yourself to the majority's culture, norms
-- live separately accepting the majority's political control
-- fight for your own separate nation
or
GTFO!
But America's Jews have successfully propagandized--slavery! the Holocaust!--this idea that the majority is supposed to accommodate itself to all these wonderful diverse minorities.
Obviously you can't have 31 different flavors of social norms and have any sort of harmony. Duh! That's not what a "norm" means. But every minority in America has a Constitutional right--it's in there somewhere--to be aggrieved by anyone else not loving them.
End Jewish minoritarianism ... you can have a nation again.
As long as it's the official ideology ... you'll need earplugs. And eventually Big Sister will come pull them out and pin your eyelids back to make you see.
Or else what?
Candice Frederick issues diktats to black men. But black men don’t seem to be particularly interested in black “queens” unless “de white women” aren’t available. As the Belle of Amherst wrote “the heart wants what it wants — or it does not care.”
Does anyone here live in Michigan, Wisconsin, or Pennsylvania?
Anybody here know what’s happening on the ground over there? Is there a hidden Trump vote or is this over?
Why?
Because the Dems screwed up - there were more votes to recount than registered voters in some precincts.
A recount would have spotlighted the blatant fraud by the Dems in “safe” precincts.So my guess is they’ll tone it down in Wayne County, but amp it up just enough in Pontiac (Oakland County) to give Michigan to Biden.Outside of the metro Detroit area, Trump’s a lock, but it will come down to a handful of key districts in Wayne, Oakland and Macon’s counties.One positive sign for DJT: former governor Rick Snyder (RINO), now a universally despised figure for his gross incompetence in the Flint water scandal, endorsed Biden.Boomerang effect next Tuesday?https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2020/10/29/president-trump-targets-rick-snyder-ahead-michigan-visit/6079295002/
Trump will clearly win all three, but at least two will be stolen from him.
Could be time to reprise the musical “Hair” with an all black cast and the music in rap. Change the title too. Maybe, oh I don’t know, “Don’t Touch My Hairs.” These people are wearing me out.

Ugh. So tedious.
Not knocking you, Steve. Someone has to slog through the swill churned out by the national press. Better you than me.
I stopped by the mall on the way home to check out the Christmas decorations. Macy’s had an elaborate setup, with giant candy canes and huge trees and shiny ornaments and Nutcracker statues galore; JCPenney had zilch. The main concourse was festooned with large holly branches hanging from the ceiling. There were no menorahs in sight.
(Will it all be looted soon?)
Aside from a token display in the window of the Disney store, the mall was completely bereft of any mention of Halloween. Not a pumpkin in sight.
(No trick-or-treating this year, boys and girls. Because Cotona-chan and Orange Man Bad.)
The restaurant where I ate lunch advertised pumpkin pie on the menu, but the waitress told me they were out. She brought me coffee even though I didn’t order it, probably because of my ghostly pallor. Lately I’ve been drinking five or six cups a day. I’ve been averaging about four hours of sleep a night.
(Will any of us be getting any sleep in the days to come?)

Well, the Dems in 2016 were on the verge of forcing a recount in Wayne County (Detroit) when a federal judge ordered it stopped.
Why?
Because the Dems screwed up – there were more votes to recount than registered voters in some precincts.
A recount would have spotlighted the blatant fraud by the Dems in “safe” precincts.
So my guess is they’ll tone it down in Wayne County, but amp it up just enough in Pontiac (Oakland County) to give Michigan to Biden.
Outside of the metro Detroit area, Trump’s a lock, but it will come down to a handful of key districts in Wayne, Oakland and Macon’s counties.
One positive sign for DJT: former governor Rick Snyder (RINO), now a universally despised figure for his gross incompetence in the Flint water scandal, endorsed Biden.
Boomerang effect next Tuesday?

You’d think the Guardian editors would be sufficiently woke as to avoid subhed juxtapositions such as the second one above:
Black men and women! Birdwatching! Seal pupping!
Not a good composition for one of the loudest voices in the woke chorus.

Unpack the impact of ideals within. I need a term for this belabored language. Belangish?
By the way, everyone knows how “beauty ideals” make people with bad hair feel. It’s not a mystery. Same way unfit people or short men feel. Except they can’t buy wigs.

You’re right, Black men love smashing white gurls. You keep saying that whitie, I’m sure that’ll show those troublesome blacks who’s boss! lmao
In case you’re too dimwitted to understand this (as, to be fair, are most whities), the concerted effort to hypermasculinize Black men and hypersexualize white gurls (particularly blondes) isn’t exactly something you should be celebrating as a whitie, but then again whites are born cucks.

Yesterday I awoke around midnight (having crashed after getting home around eight) and spent the next few hours working on my computer. I have a desktop with a large monitor on a table right next to the bed, so I can work lying down.
At 5 I left the house and took a long walk, stopping at McDonald's to buy a cup of coffee and at Walgreens to get some laundry detergent. (My preferred time for going out is that golden hour between 6 and 7 a.m. when many stores are open but traffic is light because most people are still getting up.)
For the lulz, I bought the dead-tree edition of the weekly black - sorry, Black - newspaper at Walgreens. (Yes, there is such a thing.) These days, it's virtually indistinguishable from The New York Times. To give you an idea, here's the front page from the week of George Floyd's funeral(s):

I got back just as the sun was coming up, drank an entire pot of coffee, worked on the computer for several hours, drank another pot of coffee, attended a mind-numbingly boring Zoom meeting, and then left the house in the early afternoon to run some errands. I got back around 7, fell asleep around 8, and awoke around 1:30.
Now it's 4 and I'm debating whether I want to go for another long walk. Today's schedule is comparatively light. I have a three-hour Zoom meeting starting at 9, and then I have to drop off some paperwork at a lawyer's office.

Is that a tranny in the NPR tweet?
A cursory study of their ancestral lands suggests that patriarchy might not be their natural state, even if it’s feasible in some contexts.
So you have limited intellects like Barack Obama and cucks like George Will paying lip service to the "pretty lie" that one of the key problems with lower class black families is the absence of fathers and the failure to establish intact households-- the Daniel Moynihan thesis, George Will's political idol.
Nope, because if you dig a little deeper, you'll fine the "unspoken truth" that really drives the dysfunction: viz., that lower class black society is matriarchal.
The men could be around ALL the time, and the problem would still exist. I am convinced it's built into the biology.

Suburban part of Michigan here. I see more Trump signs than Biden signs. Up north I saw lots of Trump flags. My aunt up north complained that someone destroyed her Biden sign while she was at Sunday Mass. I didn’t feel sorry for her because Biden sucks. So does Trump and, uh, my friend stole one moron’s Trump flag and threw it out. It felt good. Or so he said. In fairness to my aunt, she’s super anti war and Biden is less likely to get us into war with Iran.

A former co-worker used to tell me “the 1st thing wrong with a woman is that she’s a woman……
The 2nd thing wrong with a woman is that she’s a woman….
The 3rd thing wrong with a woman is…..”
Also ALL women are bipolar. So if a woman is bipolar shes bipolar squared….
Anyway….given white birthrates the WF/BM thing is going away and fast. Scarcity breeds an increase in SMV and there’s no way white dudes will put up with feminism or womens rights after another generation or 2….white women will become scarce….maybe thats why both WF & BM are acting out like they are?
WF realize that white men may even commoditize them. Saudi style. Set up a marriage legal structure. Ban female schooling. Ban female choice marriage. Set up a fugitive slave act thing for women who run away. Cops arrest women for curfew etc.
Who’s going to step in to stop the alphas? The white knight cucks?
And for the black dudes….their greatest fear is just that….having their balls clipped by their very own African Queens and being domesticated and put out to pasture to provide for all the kids they sire….instead of dumping the financing onus onto the taxpayer….

Some compassion and lenity may be in order here. Having African hair, outside of an African climate and culture, does present a number of formidable difficulties.[1] As long as it’s just blacks unburdening themselves and commiserating with each other, this shtick seems innocuous enough and easy enough to ignore. Of course, as soon as it starts to berate and accuse non-blacks, it becomes a problem.

According to psychologists the markers of beauty for our species are:
Youth
Gender fecundity markers (for women – hip-to-waist ratio, breasts, etc,)
Good body and facial symmetry
Averageness in facial proportions
Grace
Good scent
Good skin; and
Good hair
Black women know that last one trips them up and puts them at a disadvantage in the dating game. And rather than accept and deal with it, they’d prefer our species upends 200,000 years of evolution and declare kinky hair the apex of feminine beauty. Good luck with that, black ladies.
It was hard to see past Shingai’s dress to even notice she has hair.
The other cursory study of their ancestral homelands suggests large parts of the population have yet to engage in WWH…
I feel bad that I participated a bit. We had a new kid come to our Jr High School. He was completely white looking but he had kinky hair. As kinky as any black man. We called him Brillo. I still remember the hurt and confused look on his face. I still remember his name.
As far as black women bragging about their kinky hair. I really like how they lie and claim that white women always want to touch it (that mess)— What Nicholas Stix said, “Blacks with their toxic levels of self esteem”. He posts here and at VDARE, I am misspelling his name.
