I can relate to your feelings so much. I am incredibly shy and though I like myself when I am alone, when I get around others I just feel so awkward and tongue tied. I trip all over myself. I thought that I knew who I was but who I am is so messed up at times and I don't know how to change it.

I hate being a grey.

Oompa loompa do-ba-dee-dorture / Working with Nicki was 'hideous torture...'

Her lipstick is gorgeous.

I was shocked by how perfect Joanna Mason is. That's my favorite.

Okay you guys. Apologies in advance because I'm gonna pull a major fangirl wank right now...

Here's the thing: Whiteness, like Blackness, is relative*. He's not white in the US. Not even. However, his mother (who is quite brown) is mostly white mestiza and in Peru, she would very white. Extremely so. In fact, I'd guess and say she's white in most part of Latin America. George was adopted (eh, not the best…

Another thing that has really struck me about the reaction to this case — and this isn't fully developed, so please bear with me — is that the same people who are fully Team Zimmerman, you know, the ones who come into the comments section of every article and angrily declare that his version of the facts is the gospel…

No, he died because he threw the first punch. Not a great idea to start fights with people you don't know. The consequences can be unpredictable.

If I have to hear that stupid Shoedazzle commercial with this song on it one more time I will scream.

VIVA RACHEL!

God forbid you point out to the believers of the Stand Your Ground law that TM was followed and confronted by an armed gunman. Clearly he should have cowered on the ground and submitted to the authority of a deranged "neighborhood watchman." They're just glad Trayvon didn't have a gun.

"Because – let’s be clear here – according to current Florida law, you can get a gun, follow an unarmed minor, call the police, have them explicitly tell you to stop following him, then choose to ignore that, keep following the minor, get into a confrontation with him and if at any point during that process you get…

Because at least one isn't being used to somewhat justify his dying.

I can't watch the video on my iPhone well, but I read some transcript:

Apparently, the kids these days (read: black) mix skittles and iced tea, which somehow, dont ask me, forms a mild sedative. I forget the name they call it. Supposed to be a groovy buzz. Of course, that makes Martin a cold blooded killer, but whatcha gonna do? Some conservative sites are claiming Martin was a thug…

She's the worst kind of racist, well besides the one who kills a teen for being black. The fucking clueless racist. Their definition of a racist is a KKK member, they don't think they are. Just like that doctor who told the lady she had a ghetto booty and just could not fathom why in the world would she be offended.…

Your parents are rad, kids.

Ignore nyc.
