It breaks my heart that young people of color in this country have to have The Talk from their parents because it’s just expected that the police will mistreat them. My white six-year-old daughter comes home from school telling me that the police are her friends and they get bad guys and I don’t have the heart to tell…

I’m so very sorry for your tragic loss. I lost a friend in a similar horrific crime when I was in my early 20s, and you never really get over the insanity of it.
I am so sorry for your loss. This is devastating. I don’t understand it!
If your community is excepting condolences and what support a stranger on the internet can offer, please pass them along from me
She’s feeling relieved and guilty all at the same time. But also fearful he’s going to get away with it or get off too lightly.

I literally don’t want to know this. Please, as a fucking nation or whatever, let’s not sensationalize, thereby trivialize, child abuse or treat it like a weapon to be used for our entertainment as two celebrities spar with each other.

I can only speak from me and my circle’s experiences but for a lot of us, that relationship with a male (no matter how far it progresses) is part of the process of knowing and understanding what feels right or realising who you are.…
If it’s weird to kiss your cat, I don’t want to be not-weird.
I’m not a people person and I have anger issues, which is why I signed up to living in a crowded dormitory with multiple roommates. What could go wrong?
I can’t help it, the kitties are so cute they practically beg to be kissed between their lil fuzzy ears
But da puppi wonts smoochies!!
Guistinna for the win! She shut that shit down with the quickness. I bet $10 Ashly is used to flinging attitude around and getting her way, and Guistinna let her know up front that she was not here for it - with bullet points! There are going to be some epic fights in that room. I bet Ashly will be the one to storm…
