It’s so cool how the New York Times bends over backwards to give a platform and voice to people who want me dead because of the color of my skin.

When I mentioned this as the argument against the word, all falls silent or the goal posts dramatically shift.

Test: Do you call your mother that female that birthed you? I’ve never heard a man who loves their mother EVER refer to her as a female. Female is NEVER something men use when they respect a woman. Enough said.

This is going to sound like I am Stretch Armstrong-ing it up... Being called a ‘female’ is annoying. But being called a ‘female’ while non-Black women are being called ‘girls/gals’, ‘women’, ‘chicks’ or even ‘ladies’ (which is said by the same men, who will call me ‘female’) is pretty-fucking-infuriating.

That’s exactly why you don’t take someone to court over $60. Because if your pride and your vindication and your “principles” are worth so much to you that you’re about to sue someone because they stiffed you $60 so you can “prove” that they’re the bad roommate?

It’s true that other things can be more important than money. But in this case, it’s likely those ‘other things’ are pointing in favor of taking no action. Here’s the thing: Small claims court is not a trivial, simple endeavor. It’s less hassle than going to a normal court, but it’s still a huge pain in the neck.

And you forgot the worst part of going to court - once a judge or commissioner hears your case, it’s literally out of your hands. You should be very, very sure that you have done all you can do, and then some, if you want the court to be sympathetic to you in any way. Even if you’ve followed the law, and the other…

Same one that will take someone to court for $60......

You want the truth? You are going to enjoy life WAY more if you stop fighting the small battles that don’t matter in the end. Honestly, dude, I know what you are saying but it’s wrong. You have to let this shit go. Life is full of moments where you get fucked and lots where you don’t or even come out ahead. How many…

My roommate that just moved out yesterday (2 days late) after I asked her to leave, owes me over $3500 in back rent and utilities. And even at that amount I don’t think it is worth it to try to take her to court over. One, she probably doesn’t have the money. Two, the time, costs, and effort of taking her to court is…

In general, people who spend a lot of time accusing others of not being ______ enough, whether it’s “patriotic” or something else, are usually doing so out of their own insecurity, or to make clear where they draw the line of division between “us” and “them”. While I respect Sharon’s service in the military, and don’t…

The woman in that picture is not a patriot. She is a traitor. The essence of the American Revolution was about reason and The Enlightenment. It was about casting aside the fetishizing of idols and flags and the divine right of kings. These are ideals that our country has fallen far short of and still has a long way to…

Dear Martina,

I truly doubt any White person who is crazy enough to artificially darken their skin and install a quick weave would not wipe that bullshit off their skin and yank that shitty wig off if they knew all of the infuriating, insane and dehumanizing shit Black people actually go through.

Whaaaat?!? Idk where to start.

The New York Times is having serious quality control issues. That review never should have been published. If you claim an author said something and their book says the opposite, it should be retracted. Goldberg needs to be reprimanded over this journalistic malpractice. She’s the one making errors here, with a…

She openly used and reported using this drug to officials for ten years. She wasn’t trying to hide anything. Then they decide to ban it and low and behold she fails a test for it days later.

Nice! I was going to dope like Lance Armstrong, but I didn’t have the ball.

“...she paid a very steep price for something she readily admitted...” after failing a drug test because she and her team, uh, failed to click a link that would have told her that the drug was banned? Listen, I’m actually high right now, so I don’t want to get all holier-than-thou, but she readily admitted using…
