Six priors, four of them sealed. Fuck this dude.

I hope he enjoys someone trying to make him a couple when he doesn’t want to be forever the catcher for the next 20+ years.

Watch her act surprised when she doesn’t get an invite to the wedding.

Ummmm...what? MLP is that shit! Rainbow Dash is a boss. And you need to get your life together.

So who gets to decide who gets to open a business or buy a house in a given place? Serious question. How exactly do we legislate and enforce this?

Keep in mind, nothing can stay the same and provide anything useful to the neighborhood.

That’s how it goes. I’m not rich and I know I could be forced out of my neighborhood and, frankly, that would be unfortunate but the change would do my neighborhood some good.

The story of humanity is one of movement and change.

If one of our friends is taken by ICE, our community is able to build a campaign to get one of them released.

Yeah. I’m sure the crackheads who were squatting in these filthy, abandoned, falling down public health hazards (that I paid to have cleaned up, thus improving things overall for the community) are super bummed they can’t put food on the table for their kids.

literally pursing an opportunity, which is what we’d like to have available to all.

She offered it an art gallery. And I’m sorry, but no. Either the focus is on housing policy or the focus is on individuals. If the lack of massive affordable housing projects and the proliferation of big corporations in neighborhoods are the problem then Laura Owens isn’t. Nor is someone who wants to flip houses

So because I’m savvy at investing and improving the value of things, I’m a bad person? I need to put food on the table for my kids just like everybody else.

This is not really that different than Trumpism, just ginned up with supposed pro-minority outrage instead of anti-minority. Having “all the (prosperous) white people go away” wasn’t a positive thing for cities in the 50s-60s, and it’s not a panacea now either. If you’re activists for the working class, why not try to

Isn’t this basically the same thing as reducing federal highway funding for states that don’t comply with the 21-year-old drinking age? Of course the federal government gives more money to states that agree to work with the federal government on enforcing federal law.

Wow, really?! “White women ain’t shit.” Why aren’t comments like this against white women sexist and racist? I’m not understanding the “white women” hate here. Please blacksplain.

So... are you implying women who have been sexually assaulted ought not to “complain” that it occurred?

Someone please read this article aloud next time a white woman complains about a man grabbing her ass.

It just makes me want to withdraw further and cry until I run out of tears. I was molested by a family member for three years as a child. I’m still trying to learn to live with it. This topic is never anything but devastating to me.

Lena went to Oberlin in Ohio, not Brown or RISD. So when the author wrote “In Lena’s circle, there was a girl who was known to use the N word in conversation...” how does she know this? She was familiar with Jemima Kirke and her (apparently shitty) friends, not Lena or her college friends. She seems to use this to
