My high school wardrobe showed remnants of my private school tenure (Khakis, Sperry's, ties, homophobia)

[skyvolt2000]

Wait, do real life people actually dress like that?

Depends on the school in question.

A diverse gossip girl is cool but this is such a style downgrade, omg.

These would be outfits I would see in my high school.

ESPECIALLY the three in the first pic on the right side.

In fact I had classmates dress like those three. They were in Theater or Dance. The one in Pink I would not be shocked if she was a dancer.

The bottom one-the front three would NOT be visual art students and dress like that.

Dance, Theater and music-YES.

Most of those purses-NO.

In terms of name brands-all the kids at my school would find affordable versions of all that stuff. The guy at the bottom with the striped socks-I have seen that outfit before on a dummy at Macys.

One pure black girl and the rest racially ambiguous leaning towards white and pure white folk.

I'm not impressed but I am not the target audience so I really don't care.

Expecting "pure" race with America's history?

true but I feel like the girl with the shaved hair would get dresscoded. To be fair they're supposed to be rich kids.

sidenote, the creator said it the reboot will be "very, very queer"

Didn't know they brought him back; last I knew, the killed the poor kid off in a rather humiliating, trauma-conga-line style.

I'm glad he's getting his own show. As well, I'm pleased that the Black Lightning series is finally get some validation for its strengths this way. Spawning a spin-off means a lot in this context.

Did some members of the GOP call Cari Bush 'Breonna Taylor' out of genuine ignorance due to her mask, or just trolling her?

Unfortunately, it's easier for me to believe they really are ignorant of who Breonna Taylor is, than that they're clever enough -- leaving aside how horrible and inhumane it would be -- to be trolling her.

Like, on one level, you could at least respect their intelligence more, if they were trolling, but it would at the same time make them monsters? I guess, this one of the many situations where I feel like Hanlon's Razor applies.

Seems like a safe place to ask this

Is Amber Heard a horrible manipulative abuser who is getting away with it because she is a woman

or is Depp the abuser who tried using his money to flip the script?

Or do they both just deserve each other and they both suck?


I... can't tell. I can't tell if Amber got caught so people are jumping on Depps side or if this is the "males get abused too, women suck!" reddit crowd jumping on Depp's side just because thta is what they do.
