1. Slave owners literally beat the culture out of people. They beat them for speaking their language and participating in rituals. They deliberately separated people who spoke the same language.

You yourself put the two key sentences together: “Look far enough back and you’ll see many people were enslaved by others. Then when you look at the actual world today and realise that people are still being kept as slaves.” It’s the looking back that hopefully creates the kind of awareness that this goes on today and…

That was so salty, my wedding ring is getting a little tight on my finger from all the water retention it caused.

I think 90s television can best be defined as not taking itself too seriously.

OMFG, you were fired forever ago. Let it go. It’s like people can’t be concerned about more than one thing at a time. I also love how she took one minute to address Jada then the rest of the video was about Will. But she’s not bitter.

Nope, this is a straight up drag. Shade is when you go home later and realize you’ve been insulted. Jada and Will KNOW what just happened.

I am not emotionally ready for perfect Alan Rickman gifs.

Not even a little bitter. By which I mean, “entirely bitter.”

“Bitches please, it’s not about being bitter,”

“Bitches please, it’s not about being bitter,” she quips

Look, I’m not saying I wouldn’t hunt down a friend in a similar situation. Of course I would and I have on many, many occasions. I was the official babysitter for years because I’m not a big drinker. I’m just not OK with placing any blame on them. They are also young and dumb but they are not responsible for her death.

I wonder if her friends didn’t realize she had left until later? The last time I got in a fight with a friend at a party, I thought he just went to talk to someone else but it turned out he tried walking home and passed out in the alley (and fortunately was not run over by a neighbor.) We live in Texas, though.

It sounds like her friends were just as drunk as she was. Certainly not in a position to be responsible for other humans.

Right. It’s the friends that are to blame, not the idiot wearing shorts and a tank top in January in Wisconsin while binge drinking.

I dated one of those in college too. he was never physical with me, but threatened to harm himself many times. I finally fully broke it off with him, and guess what?? He didnt harm himself, it was just an emotionally abusive way to get me to stay with him.

I had a guy do similar to me, 6 dates and I broke it off as I found myself becoming increasingly intimidated by him and how intense he was being. I was super careful to let him down gently, told him I just “wasn’t feeling it” and from what he had told me, we had different life goals (his included many children, mine…

I’ll never forget when I was dating this man three years ago and one day he proceeded to get strangely aggressive toward me and controlling. I looked him in the eye, tried my best not to look scared and proceeded as normal with cooking, and he backed off of his “weird mood.” But I felt like I escaped something. Then…

Yes, but that’s not really the point. Her friend was killed because of her ex boyfriend's anger towards her decision to break off the relationship. This is a fear women face while dealing with controlling significant others. It is an unfortunately reality that we have to deal with.

But why are the Metro Police even investing so much resources into investigating a pro-union anti-racism activist group? I would be livid that my tax dollars went to pay for spying on a completely legal, completely benign group.
