Back when I was 16 my teacher held me after class and told me that me wearing yoga pants and skinny jeans was a "distraction" his words not mine. To this day this story is an odd source of pride for me. To be fair I couldn't blame him.

Ok that's great and all but what if someone outside of a ethnic group can do a solid performance? As I've already said acting is all about playing someone you're not so I don't see the need for an actor to have the same Scottish-indigenous American-Mexican and Somali heritage of a character.

Dude, this is all ridiculous. None of these people are real and yet here you are writing an essay on the race and ethnicity of aliens in a fictional TV show. You're making a mountain out of a mole hill. I really don't care about the the race or ancestry of an actor any more than I care about the color of his hair or eyes.

Not really. If an actor is good enough that a role then why would they're race matter? Acting is all about being something your not so I don't see a problem with a Asian character being played by a white person or a white person being played by a black person. Also, why would people being hired based on merit be a setback for non-white people? Sounds pretty racist NGL.

You're right. There worst

It's too much to remember

Lol

"Seconded on Monty Python - he should feel terrible about that travesty."

Monty Python is for insane British "people" who think drag is the height of comedy.

"Also a shower per day minimum for everyone is necessary and that’s the hill I’m dying on. Clean your stinky arse up."

Not even true. Daily showers are entirely performative. I'll have you know there are many people in your life who don't take showers every day and you don't even realize.

You can about geopolitics in a simplified and comedic way but there's a limit. If I used sock puppets to explain the election to you wouldn't you would think that I thought you were the stupidest person ever?

It's like, I'm an adult I can understand the concept of countries not liking each other without the need of simplistic cartoons. This is how you would explain geopolitics to a five-year-old.

"Your opinion of Monty Python is bad, and you should feel bad."

How? I didn't even say it was bad just not as good as people say it is. It's ok but it can only be random for so long. Once you've seen one episode you've seen them all. Monty Python is no different to those old asdfmovie videos.

I forgot to mention. If you use country balls to explain something I'm not taking you seriously.

Last year I was watching this show and and something odd happened. The camera turned to the fact of one of the characters and I don't know why but it was like she was directly at me and she was talking about militias which was weird because I had just watched a video about one. As the vid went on I could have swore that one by one the characters just came out at me like that old Nintendo ad.

This happened about a year ago I still think about it. It wasn't like I was tripping. I was a little drunk but that was about it.

I'm really feeling this, man.

You made it sound like you were going to be imprisoned.

Why?

As a white American myself I define it as a lot of things. It's mostly European in origin. Things country music, burgers and fries, flannel shirts, line dancing and the Beach Boys are just some things that scream white Americana.

I'm not.

It's hard. I always knew I was different but I didn't know why until I was 14 when I took an IQ test and found out I had an IQ of 73. At first I was in denial but overtime I came to terms with my learning disabilities and started to understand what was wrong with me. It's affects you in a lot of ways. You learn slower than everyone else. Things that come easy for everyone else take you forever to get a grasp of and I get overwhelmed with information very easily.

It's held me down my whole life. It gives me a massive a inferiority complex and it limits my opportunities. I really wish I had a normal IQ like everyone else.

I wasn't talking about neurodivergence I was talking about learning disabilities.
