Colman Domingo’s Hollywood payday is proof that common sense left the building years ago; guy can barely get a sentence out without a teleprompter and he’s suddenly a household name.
Just saw the local elementary school finally put in a crosswalk after a kid nearly got hit last month, but sure, let’s keep handing awards to actors who mumble through three-hour history movies nobody will remember by Christmas. Meanwhile, my tax dollars are paying for art installations downtown that look like a pile of melted traffic cones. Common sense says we should be funding crossing guards, not red carpets, but here we are. Colman Domingo gets a 10 million contract, and Mrs. Patterson’s class still has to share textbooks from 2012. It’s just unbelievable.
