I travel a lot. And it’s very common to be asked “where are you from.”

I’ve been labeled a race traitor because my daughter and I like Katy Perry and Taylor Swift. It’s just music! Whatever makes you happy is cool.

I’m still pretty shocked when I meet anybody who likes Coldplay.

In the 80s, our goverment took great pride in treating the mostly brown and black people addicted to crack as monsters. It created new legislation, made penalties exceptionally harsh, and prevented addicts from ever again fully participating in society. But these are white people.

I don’t have a drinking problem, I have a news before bed problem. Drinking is the solution.

There were was a significant rise in grandparents raising their grandchildren in the late 80's as well...

I felt like that was a “good white person” moment. Like, hey everyone, look at this Nice White Person doing a Nice Thing for this Poor Black Lady! Isn’t he just the best? Give that man a cookie!!

We can talk the South after we have the House and Senate again. And only once we have the House and Senate buttoned up!

So again, WHEN IN THE FUCK DID IT BECOME A THING TO BE COOL WITH RUSSIA?!

And she was apparently in tears but in the end refused him because her mother and prime minister Churchill opposed it.

Can I redirect topic to “house clothes?”

Philip is not King Philip because he was required to relinquish any claim on the throne and to relinquish his family name (which is why the children are not called Mountbatten) as a condition of the marriage.

My sister and I watch it together. It seems to be one of those shows that people watch together. :)

I think she’s just been so stressed out by the election and its aftermath that shows that are soothing and that focus on human decency are hitting her more emotionally.

Generally, a women’s size 9 will be equivalent to a men’s 7 or 7.5 (so, 1.5 to 2 numbers lower), but the men’s shoe will be wider.

About 16 years ago, I was buying a car and my sons’ dad was with me because he was my ride after I totaled my car. The one sales guy who received my sale was the guy who walked up to us and said, “so who is buying a car today?” while looking us BOTH in the eyes and shaking BOTH our hands.

I think I started around 30 or 35, then lost the top layer of fucks steadily for awhile, then hit an oil patch at 40 and started shedding fucks faster than dandruff. Now at 47, I can’t believe that it’s still going to get even better!

As a black woman, I don’t care what white men and white women think about me. I hopped off that train a long time ago when I realized it doesn’t really matter what I do. It is more important to them to hate and malign me than treat me fairly. They are never going to shut me up if I have something to say.

“Brown women don’t count. Make it hurt for white women and they may start listening (see: opioid “crisis”).”

“Heartland liberals have to stop fleeing the flyoverlands, and those who have already left need to move back.”
