(whistling, looking away)

So, yes, there has been a blog post written about the "whiteness" of Broadway that attracted quite a bit of attention. I've basically avoided it. I feel like I will either come off off like a pious scold or a person that's way too accepting of unacceptable things. It's a blog-problem. A bloblem.

There is already a fiery comments section, and I don't feel the need to dip my toe in that water.

And so, here's the link. It's likely you've already read it. If not, go for it.

He just closed comments, so participating there would be tough. However, I'm hoping he'll follow up with that, given the discussion that started.

I am now going back to Tumblr where I can look at animals and cartoon characters.
