That sentence is especially confusing because it makes it sound like this new character with a phd in plant biology is the replacement housekeeper.

I’m embarrassed to say that when I saw the title of the article my first thought was “Why replace her with a man?” Stupid subconscious ingrained prejudices.

They can get rid of Colonel Mustard before Mrs. White.

I honestly wonder if the cop is afraid the victim will live long enough to testify. There is no other reason, with the resources available to them, that they never seem to call for immediate medical care.

I remember seeing a stat mot long after Tamir Rice’s murder that 83% of police brutality complaints were filed against 6% of the cops.

I once wrote an entire essay here about the amount of training a cop is given with a gun, and while it varies from state to state in Alabama, the basic training requirements include 47 hours of firearms training broken down into different sections, now that may seem like a lot but for comparison in Alabama there are…

3. The victim has a police record!

And what happened to the idea that if you’re going to be a police officer, you’re going to be putting your life on the line to serve the public? That means you sometimes have to take a risk and not fucking shoot someone just because they might pose a threat.

And, of course, carrying a licensed gun is totally legal under THE ALMIGHTY SECOND AMENDMENT which it appears all the same racist idiots are so protective of.

Apparently we here in the US have the world's most skittish cops, who are frightened of every twitch and shadow that they see. Here's an idea: if you are constantly afraid for your life, maybe being a cop isn't for you. Maybe you should try something a little more low key, like being a meter minder; empty cars rarely…

I used to tell myself, “They just don’t know how bad it is. When people know, things will be different.” I can’t tell myself that lie anymore, and the truth that it reveals—that there is a substantial group of white people in this country that just don’t really care about black people—is heartbreaking. I’m so sorry…

What just floors me- and it shouldn’t, I should be used to it, but it does, is that there are two instant reactions I see from a certain group of people whenever these tragedies happen:

And in answer to your headline, yes, I’m afraid you will. It breaks my heart that a part of me is grateful that my son inherited his father’s light skin tone instead of my own.

It’s about Jessie Williams spewing racist words against the police, who are now a race and not an occupation.

I really want him to become a BLM leader in-show. And face a racist white villain named Aaron Smith.

In my house we put both the seat and the lid down every time. Who wants to see inside the toilet bowl anyway?

It’s simple, really.

1/2 situations in which Men use the toilet require the seat to be down (unless you shit standing up, which...is just impressive)

2/2 situations in which Women use the toilet require the seat to be down.

Therefore 3/4 times the toilet seat needs to be down.


edit: holy fuck people I’m not saying Men…

And we are already off to a FLYING start.

Just remember to put the seat back down after y’all are done today, k?
