My family originates from Irish peasant stock, which contributes to a somewhat no-nonsense attitude to death. When I was about six, my grandfather died in Ireland. Far-flung sons, daughters and their families gathered for the funeral.

There’s probably one per bag.

On Monday, I culled my FB feed to get rid of all the self-absorbed, ingorant, and racists commenters, haven’t seen a single post since then...

I imagine that would have been better. At least that trash is seasoned with organic sea salt.

Sorry you were clearly unloved and are now an underachieving garbage sack. You might as well have been eating out of one of the ocean’s trash islands. /s

From the linked article, RE: Lunchables:

Parents are stupid. There is no way in hell a kid is eating goddamn falafel in a school lunchroom. He’s throwing that away and using the $5 he stole out of your purse to buy french fries and Little Debbie snack cakes.

I lost my uterus (I like to say “misplaced” b/c it gets good looks from people) a while back, and it’s a sucky thing to go through. Since I’m sure Kim K is scouring the Jez comments for advice, wink, here are some good things to focus on:
1. You’ll never have to buy tampons again, and you can re-purpose your existing…

This is definitely a #whitepeople problem lol

Been there twice. I move a lot for work. I broke my lease both times. They grouse about it, but in my state roaches is grounds for lease breaking. The most they did was keep my deposit. Which fuck ‘em, they were never going to give that back anyways.

It tastes ok in a chocolate cake though. It has a pretty nutty taste, so I doubt it would make a decent cake without the chocolate...

Most black folk back in my day, 70’s & 80’s, taught us to never share hats or ear muffs. I thought they didn’t want us to get blamed by the white parents for bringing the lice. If I recall correctly, none of us got lice but a bunch of white girls got the Dorothy Hamil cut whenever an outbreak occurred.

My son’s school nurse told us that black people rarely got head lice because of the products they use on their hair and that lice prefer squeaky clean hair with no products. I’m not gonna lie, the lice was so bad in my son’s 1st grade class that I was researching EVERYTHING.

I had really long hair as a kid and my mom used to french braid it. Once they had to take them out to do the lice check. Luckily the lady doing the check was nice and apologized about having to take my hair down.

I can’t even with the roaches in my apartment! I moved in and the next day I had roaches in the bathroom and kitchen. Exterminators came. I’ve had to kill other stuff not roaches. Nothing for 2 days Tonight I had to kill 2 big ones. I HAVE AN 18 MONTH LEASE! (Sobs)

Vegan here. One time non vegan co-workers made me a vegan birthday cake. The cake on its own was a very good cake. The heart melting kindness and consideration that went into making that cake was a thing of beauty. I will never forget it.

Some vegan cakes are very good, others are like eating kitty litter out of Satan’s asshole.

Yes! Charles Monfort’s trial just concluded here in the Seattle area, and his slaughter of random police officers because he was “protesting police brutality” did NOT wash with the jury or the public. Police Brutality is a real problem but being co-opted by a selfish lunatic did nothing to solve it.

THANK. YOU. I’ve been keeping a documentation log of workplace issues for several years—as my experiences ay my current company (where I’m the only black woman in an IT department within an industry notorious for being a veritable good ol’ boys club) make what this guy Tweeted about his office seem like a joke. And…

I thought hornets were worst than wasps.
