Possibly also unpopular opinion but...I think it’s actually less healthy to let kids think that love and family is so fragile that one generic, undefined “mistake” can bring it crashing down. Or the other option, the “we just grew apart,” which only serves to spackle the cheater’s actions and communicates to kids…

I briefly dated a guy once who let me know after a few weeks, and of course as I was starting to really like him that he and his ex-girlfriend were still living together. At first when he told me I tried to be open and cool, but then I asked him if they were still trying to work things out, or if this was just a…

A guy who worked next door to my office struck up a friendship with me. We were super cool for three years. No mention of a girlfriend. Then I see he got married. It was all over Facebook. I congratulated him. He got all weird and defensive about it. Wouldn’t admit to it. Demanded to know how I knew?

I forgive her because she lived through sixteen years of her husband being lauded as a feminist god friend and champion paragon on virtue while he was actually screwing around on her. I would be pretty pissed off too.

Yeah? Feminists blame the beautiful, needy, aggressive young women for their affairs?

I was bored and on Instagram live the other day and started watching the feed of this radio show I’ve been listening to for years. A few mins later the guy from the show I crush on DMs me. We talked for a few days and I assumed he was divorced because I saw no sign of a wife in his pics. So I finally think to be on…

Racism in the north is definitely more subtle, but just as bad. It’s “I have to move to the suburbs because the schools in the city are so bad” with the unspoken-but-implied part being “because they’re full of children of color.”

You hit the nail on the head. Racism in Boston and New York is different to racism in charlottesville. It’s curiously white neighbourhoods and schools contrasted with neighbourhoods of colour that somehow have a much lower median income, and schools that are objectively worse. Eric Garner didn’t get murdered in…

That’s why New York’s elite have always mocked Trump. He’s the hillbilly’s idea of a rich man. Old money New Yorkers not only don’t have gold plated penthouses, they wouldn’t step foot in one.

Soooo presidential.

No, it doesn’t, because you are not understanding what happened. They signed on with Obama, and, as is common, were staying until their replacements were found. Since Orange doesn’t do any work, he didn’t replace them and of course, is taking money away from the program anyway. They hung in as long as they could,…

In the words of Tucker93 above:

That’s fantastic.

I fucking love it, and the sad part is that it shows the people who penned it should have been on any reasonable administration’s arts council.

Holy shit, it is. I thought you were joking, but it’s totally an acrostic. I guess that’s what happens when you get a bunch of arts majors to write a resignation letter.

The letter is an acrostic which spells out “RESIST”

Reproach...
Elevating...
Speaking...
Ignoring
Supremacy...
Thank You...

To be completely honest. I think his mother is a common example of older white women who have biracial children. Sleeping with Black men was something she “experimented” with back in the day. That resulted in two children...but ultimately, who she slept with didn’t change who she is and has always been...another white…

Jesus God of America. This gets all my rage. Willful ignorance just makes my blood boil. If you’re wrong, say you’re wrong. Own up to it. Don’t scream louder and stick your fingers in your ears. “La-la-la” isn’t a coherent world view.

Good morning PJ. I had a similar relationship with my best friend’s mother until, for my own mental sanity I had to cut her off. My best friend is white and I am black and I am the godmother her children (if the unthinkable happens, my BFF wants me - and not any one in her family - to take care of her kids, lawyers…
