I wonder how all the black people that missed out on jobs, funding, etc. feel about it though. That type of thing has both an economic, professional, and mental and emotional effect. She didn’t just steal culture , she stole opportunity that would have benefited actual black people on multiple levels. I hope she gets…

It takes a special degree of whiteness to immerse yourself in a field like this, yet apparently think none of it applies to you. 

Ask your doctor if Dolezal is white for you.

That’s the thing about self-hate: it leaks.

She knows that trump hates Mexicans, but this Karen does not consider herself to be “one of the bad ones”. She doesn’t realize trump and the entire right wing hates her too. I bet this Karen contributed to trumps wall...

I know it’s been said before, but I feel like at some point we need to cease with the cutesy names and begin reporting these with cold, brief language. Same as if you’d imagine a black and white news report from the old days, “A local woman verbally assaulted three joggers with a slew of racial slurs. She approached…

Hi everybody! This week ! will start out with a small brag and then ask for advice. After months of trying to do planks and barely being able to hold them for a few seconds, I can now hold a plank for a minute with only a couple of knee drops. Yay me! My friend gave me two massive squash, 1 zucchini(courgette) and one…

Yes. I wouldn’t begrudge anyone their excitement over Harris’s selection. I think representation genuinely matters and is important. Also, from a purely political standpoint, she’s a great pick.

I like this comment. Why does Kamala have to be perfect for this to be inspiring? She is far from perfect, which puts her in the company of exactly every politician ever. Still something to cheer. 

I’m so glad I checked out on the veepstakes ages ago. This shit has turned intoa combination of a second primary and a season of The Bachelor.

Suck it up leave it be. In 90 days he beats the anti-YoSemite and about 365 days after that we have the first woman president and she is black!

I’m terrified of the debates. He is not a strong candidate. He should decline all the invitations to everything and just release a weekly pre-taped Youtube of his policies. This is not okay and the fact that his gaffes always seem to be about black people says a lot.

For therapy to be productive, we have to be comfortable with and trust our therapist. I think it doesn’t matter WHY we need our therapist to be a certain age/gender/ethnic background, at least initially. Just gotta get started and get help with the issues that are troubling you. I guess at some point it will become…

Something to keep in mind is that the first therapist you see may not be the best one for you. I ended up spending a lot of time with a few that I felt was futile. I wrote-off the process as bullshit and justified the decision that I was broken, as well. But I eventually landed in the office of someone that:

I really love your writing.

Bi-polar is a perfect excuse to never be accountable for anything, ever.  In my own experience, learning everything I could about it, and ultimately choosing to not use the label as a crutch or excuse for me failing to acknowledge, prepare and deal with in a proper way, how my brain functions differently.  How…

The version of “Lost in Emotion” Spotify streams is the re-recorded version (at least for this Canadian). Why is that? All the originals of their other hits seem to be there.

This week I confirmed and moved forward with my decision not to contest my divorce, in essence walk away from 20 years of partnership with my dog, some clothes, and the bodum. I don’t own a fork, a pillow, a plate (I rent a fully furnished home). Annnd, I feel so fucking light, and at peace. The past five, fuck maybe…

Spanish is also a language for murderers, rapists, thieves, etc.

To be fair, if you have 5,000 words of material, but need to stretch it to 10,000, no skill is quite so valuable as mediocre-white-man confidence.
