Self-identification matters but I also think your physical traits have an impact. I’m Afro-latino and I identify as Black, even though both sides of my family have some whiteness in them (via Spain because, colonialism and slavery). Most people assume I’m African American and I don’t say otherwise unless I’m…

If they were talking about eating ass, then this would’ve been very timely. But head? Felt like a throwback to the 90s. Ijs.

PREACH, Negra! I watched one episode, not even a giggle was had.

Real light aka can pass for Italian. Also calls him negro, “but in an endearing way!” Ugh.

I listen to a podcast wherein these folks are referred to as “Special Blacks.” They buy into stereotypes about what it means to be Black, hence that is the standard for “normal” and they then become “special.”

Of course. Give yourself a break, it’s not your job to teach her. If she really wants to do better, she has to do the work. You can’t do it for her.

I think she meant well but this was a bad idea with even worse timing.

Omg, sending out an internet hug to you. I’m sorry some asshole said that to you, and that she’s treating you like that. She doesn’t deserve your friendship.

I have cut off several wypipo “friends” over this election. Not to mention their behavior in the time since, showin their entire asses on FB.

Good for realizing their mistake, but damn, look at the cost. We should forgive but never, EVER forget.

As soon as Kelli stopped talking, I knew!! Lol

I don’t necessarily know that I am all the way atheist, but I DEF don’t believe in the dogma of Seventh Day Adventism. My parent’s did their best, but 18 years of being forced to go to church didn’t work; I just couldn’t believe.

Can someone please take me out of the grays? I posted on VSB under the same username.

THAT PART. Also, the misogyny. A number of teenage girls had gotten pregnant back in my being-forced-to-attend-church-days and they were shamed and essentially forced out while the teenage boys (and older men) who had a part in the pregnancies didn’t get anything. Not even a lecture. It made me sick.

Raise your hand if you’re suprised. Hands? Hands? Yeah, no.

Your recaps are my favorite! And you’re right, while Dany might be a better rule, there’s just something about her that don’t curl all the way over! Plus, she’s good for demanding ish from folks she don’t even know, talmbout bend the knee John Snow...whet?? Ugh, I really don’t like anyone on this show but the Stark…
