I've been thinking about this Roseanne thing. I don't really like her type of humor, didn't watch the ''reboot,'' and really tend to just watch occasional news shows, or Netflix. I think for me, two things stand out...1) racism is alive and well, sadly, in 2018 and 2) that people care way too fucking much about what celebs think. Maybe one more thing...3) We seem to place celebs on pedestals, and when they fall from grace, we look on with our popcorn and pitchforks. It's wrong to do that, I think...gloat when someone powerful or famous falls from grace. We're all capable of terrible thoughts also, and what I'm hopeful of with Roseanne, is that instead of continuing to blame Ambien and that the world just 'doesn't understand her type of humor,' that she really learns from this. Reflects and tries to figure out why she has such dark thoughts about people. Or certain groups of people.
She could consider this...her "reboot".
