hipsterinatardis:

Fun fact: Dustin Hoffman and Bob Hoskins decided secretly that they’d play Hook and Smee as a gay couple. When Spielberg, the director, found out, he was furious.

I just think it’s hilarious.

If true, fucking boss

Ok, just want to address this because I still see this being passed around and it pisses me of so hard it actually makes me want to bleed out of my ears.

Because if anyone bothered to do the TINIEST bit of research they’d realise that this ‘fact’ is almost completely bullshit

YES. This episode exists. It is called ‘Blue Cat Blues’ and it came out in 1956

YES. It shows Tom depressed and contemplating suicide on a railtrack after his dream girl runs off with another man, and later Jerry joins him after the same thing happens to him.

NO, it was NEVER THE ‘LAST EPISODE’ OF ANY TOM AND JERRY SERIES

Hell, it wasn’t even the last episode of the year it was released.

If people actual used their brains they would realise that this episode is clearly older than the new Tom and Jerry shows. There were at least 3 more years of Hanna/Barbera era toons after this one, then you get into the Chuck Jones and Gene Deitch eras. There is no evidence that I can find anywhere of Blue Cat Blues being the ‘last’ episode of Tom and Jerry, or that Hanna/Barbera were planning on finishing the show’s run on this episode.

I’m so sick of people passing this around and going ‘whyyyy did they kill off Tom and Jerry MY CHILDHOOD IS DYIIING’.

Don’t believe every little ‘fact’ on a black background that you see on social networking sites. DO YOUR RESEARCH.

This might seem like not a big deal but it’s a great example of how something worded badly or without sources to back it up can give people completely the wrong information. I’m am sure there are people out there who believe this fact is true and it upsets them greatly. And that’s awful.

Misinformation is BULLSHIT.

"The thing that sucks about Girls and Seinfeld and Sex and the City and every other TV show like them..."

Mon, 20 May 2013 12:33:16 +1000

“The thing that sucks about Girls and Seinfeld and Sex and the City and every other TV show like them isn’t that they don’t include strong characters focusing on the problems facing blacks and Latinos in America today. The thing that sucks about those shows is that millions of black people look at them and can relate on so many levels to Hannah Horvath and Charlotte York and George Costanza, and yet those characters never look like us. The guys begging for money look like us. The mad black chicks telling white ladies to stay away from their families look like us. Always a gangster, never a rich kid whose parents are both college professors. After a while, the disparity between our affinity for these shows and their lack of affinity towards us puts reality into stark relief: When we look at Lena Dunham and Jerry Seinfeld, we see people with whom we have a lot in common. When they look at us, they see strangers.”

- Hipster Racism Runoff And The Search for The Black Costanza by Cord Jefferson @ Gawker

When they look at us, they see strangers.

I was trying to find this quote recently. I don’t think most white people understand how it feels to be thought of as only as a dehumanized stereotype or a token. Never as someone like you who can be relatable and have things in common with you. It’s always a surprise to people online and offline when people find out that I like things that they do, too ; that I’m not just some angry activism-obsessed woman. When people like Lena Dunham say they don’t know how to write Black people, it’s pretty much saying that she doesn’t think that Black people are also fully complex human beings like her. Sure, there are cultural considerations to be made, but it’s ignoring the fact that people of color are diverse and not a monolith, so it’s not like the only girls who are like her are white.

I first saw this like a week ago and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it.
