In fact, your second sentence is a delightful exception.

She can’t acknowledge it bc in her head, the possibilities are “either/ or”, as in, either she’s totally achieved what she has from hard work, or she was totally given what she has bc she was light-skinned. She’s likely incapable of applying nuance to her thought process- in other words, her appearance opened the door…

I’m Chinese-American, and its so funny to me how each countries media reports on the other. In China, where women could own property and divorce hundreds of years before their western counterparts, they see American restrictions on abortions and birth control, the gender pay gap, rates of sexual violence, etc as…

You can care about two things at once.

🇯🇲🇯🇲 I am so proud of this woman!

I cringe every time I hear an American actor try to approximate a Jamaican accent. Like Jamaicans are so quiet or hard to find they have to guess at it? It’s always awful

Diana Ross did not take over the iconic Judy Garland role. “The Wiz” and “The Wizard of Oz” are two different works based on the same source material. Add in “Wicked” and you can see that there are several works based on “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” by L. Frank Baum.

I KNOW What is that shiny, tinsel? Ok I know it’s probably a really good wig but it’s sooo pretty.

Hey. Can we not conflate sex workers and trafficked women? That’s like conflating an annual pelvic exam with a rape. One is a consensual commercial transaction, and one is a violation of your privacy and bodily autonomy. While they were neither sex workers nor victims of trafficking, those things are not the same.

The youngest member of this group was born in ‘99. So you have a bunch of very pretty, very young women probably on their first time out of the country. They’re meekly following behind a few adults. In their bags are costumes and camera equipment. When they get stopped, they don’t have the proper visas and nobody can…

Nope, they come from a tiny company. They’re not expensively dressed and most definitely not flying in first class. They’re not popular at all and all the expenses wasted in this little jaunt are probably going to go against their “debt” to the company. Either way, even if officials realized who they were they still…

But I mean again...I think you are picking up some of the inferences of the blogger. It is not at all unusual for people to travel from Seoul to LAX, in fact there are several direct flights now per day practically per airline. The relationship between TSA and Customs is a little bit like, internally, the relationship…

Yeah, the reality is the group wanted to skim a little off the top and it seems like they never were intending to declare the revenue or nature of their trip. So bad on them.

This is important. It’s the company’s fault for not having proper documentation/translation services to ensure a smooth entrance into the country.

Every time you feel the need to post a comment, jog in place for 5 minutes instead.

I often am stuck with a “I ain’t got the spoons for this shit” day and I have, on more than one occasion, awarded myself with a fancy coffee or a cookie just for taking a shower or brushing my teeth. Because there was a time in my life where those things didn’t happen for far longer than I’m comfortable revealing…

I hand’t really thought about it that way, as it is I’m glad that its just a bunch of girls doing their thing and getting down like women I’ve seen (I’m afro latina) and grown up around.

I read it differently, I thought her “female identified bodies” referred to violent attacks faced by both cis and trans women.

This is an awesome response. Thanks for writing it and I’m sorry for the mental energy you had to expend being pissed off enough to write it so well.
Here. This is my go-to “feel better about the world” youtube video these days. Hope it helps.

It sounds weird but I’m probably not the only one who was relieved last night when they were talking about white shooters. Damn.
