Saw it in April, loved it. The only thing I (black woman) didn’t like was the repeated references to the black men as “chocolate.” Hi, I am not food, thanks. But my group all agreed to try to go again next year.

I love how you commented on an unimportant comment just to build yourself up. Mwah.

This will be grey, but I met him a number of times for my job in the late 00s, when he was dating Heather Locklear. At that point in time: he was definitely not charming, and he tried to get my phone number from my boss when I wouldn’t bite. (She refused, told him she was not my pimp.)

In the past month, six parties of friends/acquaintances have announced that they are leaving Denver. All of them middle class, white collar professionals with 0-1 children, and moving to smaller cities (in WI, MT, IL, WA, KS, PA). It’s a little alarming, to be honest. We bought our house for cheeeep just before the…

To quote Jamelle Bouie: I never want to hear anyone complain about affirmative action again.

I treat women with cancer. There are already patients on my schedule through March. These “inconvenience” comments are not very realistic. I wish they’d planned the strike out a little further in advance so I could take a day without hurting other women.

I know one of his Growing Pains costars; they always said he was a huge asshole and sleazeball. Robin came from somewhere.

I feel like the only person who is having the opposite reaction. I’ve sincerely reconsidered not having another kid, since the election. Maybe because I’m a POC, but I feel like there should be more of us (POC in America). Also: at this point, I feel that a Trump administration is worse for the environment than…

It’s not true! I just thought the croissant thing was worth a laugh. People (in the greys) keep telling me it’s not correct: yeah, I know. Just laugh through the tears, folks.

Holy crap, all these people replying “that’s not how it works”: this is a joke. “Croissant” is inherently funny, not an excuse for war. Does this really need explanation?

Obviously. But the upper extremities are not weight bearing for us. His whole premise is based on being quadrupedal/all points down/weight bearing. We don’t have quite the shoulder structure, foot structure, abdominal musculature, or pelvic bowl/base to say this is how we “should” move.

I JUST gave a lecture about how squatting is excellent for joint health, and we’d all be better off squatting to use the bathroom as other cultures do (better balance, proprioception, core and pelvic muscle strength, etc). Ha.

Movement specialist pedant here: it’s also strange to suggest that “it should take four limbs” to move. This... this is not how bipeds evolved to get around. The four points of contact are for stability while you’re developing the skill/strength to balance on two (if needed, if you even crawled). It’s why we…

I work as medical staff at a mental hospital. Nearly all my patients had childhoods so horrific I don’t know how they’re still alive (admittedly, some are trying not to be).

I trained for an ironman a few years ago; [many] triathletes are the wooooorst. It’s easily the least pleasant, least healthy athletic community I’ve experienced, and I used to work with professional athletes. I’m a runner and lucky to be part of a culture where we cheer each other on. Triathletes stonily…

I know we’re mad at Ryan, but I (black! Like, militantly!) still would bang. Just had a sex dream about him, as his dumb hot face and stupid hard body have been all over media. Whew. Feels good to get that off my chest. (Penance recs welcome.)

Shaun King (I know, I know... he can be problematic) is putting out a detailed action plan right now. BLM isn’t putting out a ton of detailed stuff because—truthfully—it’s not their job to create or propose policy. The onus is on politicians and policy makers. BLM is just (rightfully, I think) demanding the change.

Neither. No candidate has, thus far, addressed BLM issues on a level that top activists in the movement (or even folks who aren’t in the movement) are satisfied with. Elon James White makes this a central point of his show: no one is doing a good job clearly stating an action plan for state sanctioned extrajudicial…

Big laugh at Bernie being “the first” to take BLM seriously. He certainly did not. That revisionist history (which has been debunked over and over again by TWiB) is alarming.
