First off I think Jesse Williams is best name I've ever heard in my life, totally not biased at all lol. But the guys a great actor and really brave for taking on this role and I can't wait to see it.

I like the mention of not being able to truly express oneself despite people around you claiming they’ve accepted you. It’s one of the reasons I hate the word acceptance. Makes me feel like idk, my presence is being put on stand like a court preceding.

@inawinchester 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, I feel the same way. Acceptance sounds nice at first, but it only means that the person isn't actively working against them. Respect is what everyone should have. Acceptance is that you can tolerate something negative and that's not what we should be aiming for, that's the lowest bar there is

K they both dates Minka Kelley. I think trevor is still dating her. Minka also was like gasoline to the fire for Jesse's ( going thru divorce at the time) exwife. So to see them both on screen now is like awkward for me. Just knowing that🙈🙊
