What time do you have your basic ass brunch?

Buy a Sodastream! I love seltzer water and I use mine constantly to make seltzer, then I add lemon or lime juice to it. You can control the level of carbonation and it's so much cheaper than buying seltzer in a store.

RECYCLE YOUR BOTTLES AFTER YOU USE THEM ONCE. The plastic is really not meant for more than single use.

If they think the passenger did/might have done something, absolutely.

YES. Absolutely yes, it’s just harder to see because of population %s.

Amaaaazing.

Sorrynotsorry, but please stop. Buy a reusable water bottle. Reasons:

I'm with your husband on this: get an actual reusable water bottle. Better for your wallet and MUCH MUCH better for the environment.

Yes, it is. The Human Rights Commission in Quebec did a report on it a while back. Blacks get targeted more than whites, and more in some neighbourhoods than others. There was a case somewhere in the Maritimes, too, where a black man was being pulled over too often and he won his case.

I’m Canadian and I have to ask other Canadians - is this a problem that people experience here? (I’m in a city that has a population that’s more white and Asian in demographic, and always have been.) I ask not because I’m one of those Canadians that think we don’t have a racism problem here, we very very obviously do,…

Not surprising. One of my good friends is a black man who drives a Porsche convertible, and a few months ago he got pulled over for entering and then exiting the left turn lane (he was lost). The cop who pulled him over got out of the car, and just stood and leaned against his cruiser and waited to for back up to…

I’m endlessly curious about their excuse for pulling him over in photo 2, since he wasn’t even driving.

Fuuuuck, and here I didn’t think this could get any more depressing....

This is what happens to Black people when we don’t drive a Prius instead. #Adapt

That’s infuriating. I hope his documenting this helps demonstrate the reality of the problem. White people are so fucking stubborn, though, refusing to see the well-documented racism we’ve been talking about for years.

What, by being white instead?

and in 3, 2, 1 - there will be people writing about how he should just drive better.

This is what I just posted about in a separate thread! My father always told me growing up that you should have an escape fund from all situations, including marriage. I think he is sadly correct.

Sorry everyone. I went through 7 (YES, SEVEN) whole pages of Perez Hilton's website combing for possible answers, and nothing fits.

Yes, you are correct. It's self-shade. Self-shade is best when the shader isn't aware that s/he is the shadee.
