I guess there was a whole nasty racist Thing about Lizzo being in Mandalorian which I totally missed because I quit Twitter, and I’ve honestly never been happier with the decision. Also, she was amazing and I had better see cosplays.
There was a whole year when I would only karaoke Lizzo on the way to client engagement and @malanalysis got to bear the brunt of that.

@hacks4pancakes its always weird when something from main-Twitter-stream comes 'round & hits you like a 2x4 because you've ironically decided to remain steadfast to your values.
Also WTF is this thing about Lizzo, it's the first I've heard of it.
@deweyritten if you Google anything, anything about that episode you will get incels and or racism. I’m surprised you haven’t seen, it’s been a bit.
JJTurner@hacks4pancakes @deweyritten seen far too much criticism about it being a 'woke' episode. Was there an LGBTQ+ message I missed? Don't think so. Did they tackle the challenging "are sentient droid analogous to slaves" topic? Not really, and please don't think too hard about it. Did they focus on Lizzo & Jack Blacks acting/ celebrity cameo and whether it meshes with the Star Wars Universe? No. So what other anti-"Woke" topics are there? It falls back to the now common use of "Woke", wanting to voice vile opinions in a way that is socially acceptable. In this case, objecting to the colour of someone's skin, their gender, and playing someone in a position of power.

With a side of abuse from the "manosphere" types for having the gall to cast a bigger woman as anything except the butt of a joke.
nelsonsa@hacks4pancakes and I bet it's from people who enjoyed the prequel trilogy.
Anyone who liked Jar Jar Binks doesn't get an opinion on whether they're ruining Star Wars with cameos.
@nelsonsa the actor, however, has stunningly redeemed himself!
@hacks4pancakes his work with Robot Chicken was pretty damn good. And the hatred he got over the years was absolutely unwarranted.
My vitriol is purely aimed at George Lucas.
Kevin Boyd (he/him) 🇨🇦@nelsonsa @hacks4pancakes okay, yes, but also a couple of episodes ago on Mandalorian.
David Nelson@hacks4pancakes That was such a fun episode, and her scenes with Grogu were the best part.
@dmnelson they were gloriously over the top, but Star Wars is full of over the top, and it’s great!
Breanne Boland@hacks4pancakes Oh my goodness, she was?!!! Guess I missed the racism too, and now I just have something cool to look forward to.
The Flight Attendant@hacks4pancakes I don't miss twitter at ALL! Mastodon is so much better for my brain 🧠💗
FeralRobots@hacks4pancakes honestly Jack Black was way more of a stunt-cast than Lizzo.
Sam Grubb@hacks4pancakes what’s sad for me is that as soon as I saw her, my first thought was ‘whelp this will be a whole racist thing.’
Julie moved to @@hacks4pancakes I don't watch the show so I didn't know this was a thing but look how happy these two absolute dorks look! God, she's so gorgeous. Him too.
@robotfactory I mean nothing makes me happier than seeing true fans get to be in a show
Chris@hacks4pancakes I don't care what anybody says, that whole episode was just fun. I knew people were grumpy about it, but I'm glad I missed the racist garbage.
HTTP 1.1/418 Old Teapot Typewriter Font@hacks4pancakes Lizzo showing up there is probably the thing that will nudge me to go start watching this season.
Jody T@hacks4pancakes most of my friends know I’m a huge Star Wars fan so one shared feedback an acquaintance posted about the episode, and asked if I’ve seen the episode-was it really that bad?
It wasn’t even close and yeah, the racial undercurrent of the original criticism was pretty apparent. Reminded me of the whole “Can’t have a Black stormtrooper” shit-take.
I thought Lizzo did just fine with and I *absolutely* loved her interactions with Grogu.
the grinch 
@hacks4pancakes I loved the episode and her acting/casting was perfect for her, i like Jack Black's acting too but he probably could have been better off as a bad guy.
@grinch he still might be
Joan Albright@hacks4pancakes Wait is that who she was? My face blindness strikes again.
Ger in the CloudI remember when there was a big stink because of some flute. From the noise, I thought she had dropped or broken in, but no ... she played it. Because, they ... asked her to.
I mean, that told me all I needed to know about that crap.
Haven't seen it yet (I'm behind in my Star Wars related stuff), but this makes me want to! 😀
