Joyce, you don't want him to win because of memes?! Shame.

We can still get memes out of him of people brushing him as they pass by him.

I actually have off work tomorrow!

They're funny, okay? Let me live!

It'll be like craving something for so long, and then, when it happens, where's the fun in it anymore?

I really do hope he wins, though!

I got unofficial news yesterday that I've been accepted into the master's program I wanted to do originally.

I'm so happy.

That's so great! Yay:

And I want to ask you, what are your thoughts about #OscarsSoWhite? I know you didn't like the lack of diversity with the nominations, but do you think the blacks are taking it too far?

**fall into your smile** · 01-23-2016, 01:59 PM

That is great, Joyce!

**Always & Forever** · 01-23-2016, 08:06 PM

It really is!

Thank you, girls!!!

I really am so happy!

Also, to answer your question, Jess, no, I don't think it's being taken too far. I get that it may create an awkward situation for this year's nominees and ceremony, but history has shown that to get change, you really need to step up and this has been an issue for years (and the #OscarsSoWhite movement already existed long before this year's nominations were announced, but it's only now generating publicity due to the boycott). And honestly, if it wasn't for the boycott, I doubt the Academy would actually be seriously working on plans to improve right now. Hollywood is an industry that prides itself on being progressive, but the truth is that they just aren't and they need to start putting their money where their mouth is.

The one thing that I don't like, though, is that it's turning into a white vs black thing while this issue affects all people of colour (and also women and the LGBTQ community, but that's another story, although still an important one) and I think that's mostly due to the media's portrayal of the issue. But yeah, that's my two cents.
