I'm hearing that they illegally passed the fucking vote after midnight and that shit just got real up in there

I am so over this woman, it makes me gag. You want to hear a really fucked up story about your "dream school"? My first 2.5 years of HS, I had a 3.67 GPA. I did very well on my SAT, and I had the grades and SAT score get into my dream school, which was Northeastern. I also went to a school with no AP or honors

I was just reading something on Tumblr (forgive me, I cannot even process much right now with the crappy day I'm having.), but basically the point that the person was making is that the White people who are angriest about affirmative action aren't the White people that got into the school they wanted or got the

Didn't you know? Only White people can say if something is racist or not. We're too sensitive and "too close" to racism to be able to identify it. White = Neutral, boo.

I fell down the rabbit hole on Tumblr, and saw the greatest list. It was things White People Think Are Racist (It's kind of sad I need to clarify this, but this is obviously not all white people, so people please keep your "But my white friends and I" comments away from me, because I'm not about hand-holding and I

What you said x1000! I really wish we could keep my great-grandmother at home ( We did for several years, and I drove up to New York every weekend from Boston to take care of her, since my relatives were in New York were like "zomg, I'm sooooooo busy"), but she has dementia and wanders around. She forgets that she

OMG, my aunt and I had a really serious discuss over whether or not just so smother her ass. Since we decided that we'd rather not go to jail for murder, we recorded one of her tirades, went back to the head nurse and told her not only are we moving her out of this facility ASAP, we will send this tape to every

This is just where we agree to disagree, or maybe I'll become more forgiving the older I get (I'm not even 30). But, I just can't cut a woman calling my great-grandmother and the really nice staff that take care of her the n-word. I don't care how old you are or being settled in your ways. If you think learning new

My favorite so far has been "But, I call everyone I don't like the n-word" HA. I totes believe that when a white person gets on your nerves, you call them the n-word. Right.

I guess I'm just a mean person, because I don't cut anyone slack. I don't care if you're 103. If you use racist slurs, you're a racist. Period. I'll give you an example. My great-grandmother is 93 and after she had a stroke, she had to go to a nursing home. Her roommate was about the same age. This old bat called

I'm sorry you have to deal with this bullshit from the other posters. This is exactly why so many WOCs have written blogs and posts about why Jezebel isn't very accepting. Or why WOCs in general are uncomfortable with calling themselves feminists or participating in the movement. THIS IS THAT SHIT RIGHT HERE. I'm so

I think this is just obligatory at this point. What's even funnier, is that white people don't even have to say that. Bro, we know all white people aren't racist. White people aren't judged by the actions of one white person. That's saved for us black folks. ;)

PLEASE, someone tell me that you've seen the paulasbestdishes hashtag. It is brilliant. My favorites so far are Coon on the Cobb, Ku Klux Klam Kakes, Wadin' In The Watermelon and When White Folks Talkin' You Better Hushpuppies. This has made my life.

Empty, my ass. How disgusting. I'm sorry you had to deal with that.

Jeez, that has to be the worst. Some people can take the information in and it really changes how they view the world. But, sadly, some people just automatically get defensive, as if it's a personal attack on them. Another favorite, "Am I supposed to feel bad for being white? Why can't I be proud of it?" Face, meet

There's a lot of the "I don't see color! It doesn't exist! I don't have any privilege! I grew up in Fall Rivah!" here too. Which, let me tell you, gets to be a really old conversations when you're taking classes about race or civil rights or anything remotely related to the black experience. I almost feel a little

Oh yeah, Gawker. The wonderful little site where MULTIPLE people argued on the Paula Deen article that it's totes cool to call a black person that's doing something bad the n-word. Or, my personal favorite, "I call everyone a n-word!"

Northern racism - We vote blue and support civil rights and social programs, as long as you stay over there in your area. Unless your area is prime real estate. Then, we'll slowly move in and force you out.

I am here for that gif. YES.

I actually just chortled. I love that joke.
