Orange County CA (I am vaccinated), an unladylike lady, 31.

Every night is Caucasian heritage night at baseball games in Utah

I just bruh’ed to death. I am literally dead after that one. I am typing from beyond the grave. The afterlife is real.

Sometimes I wish I could say something complimentary to them like, “For a nurse, your grammar skills are surprisingly adequate.”

Did you punch him right in the dick???

Ugh, I know. The music that plays at my gym is the worst.

Alyssa, most racists don’t think they are racists, just FYI.

Maybe, but Yoko probably also thinks your “friends” should be the squirrels in the park and a box of rusty nails.

No, really, who the hell are you to come in here and lecture commenters about “we need to come together” like nobody’s thought of that, and like people aren’t allowed to be sad and angry about this because it’s not “unifying” enough for your taste?

Exactly - this shitstain is getting the benefit of the doubt that minority kids don’t receive.

It’s pretty fucking simple. Listen to them. Don’t talk over them. Talk to your racist Aunt Linda about why her views are so wrong and so destructive. Speak up when your white friends say racist shit. And for the love of god, don’t jump in with #notallwhitepeople! when someone is expressing their pain and outrage.

um...i am white so i can only tell you how i try to be an ally. one of the things i know not to do is to derail conversations about either individual POCs’ lived experiences or the effects of hundreds of years of systematic and institutionalized racism by pointing out that not all white people are racist. i know this

Do you realize that it’s not the job of black people to educate you and tell you what to do, or even to humor you in having a “say, how about we turn this into something positive!!!!” conversation, especially in a moment where people are processing and grieving and still reeling from a truly heinous act of racist

You can be supportive by shutting up and letting black and other POC talk about their issues. Jon Stewart is getting praise (totally warranted) for saying things that black people have long been saying.

Yep. This all day. No one wants to call white supremacy and racial violence what it is...whether it’s this asshole, George Zimmerman, or cops, it is always deflected, and when possible, the black people are blamed for their deaths.

If you really feel anger and pain, please stop #notallwhitepeople-ing. It doesn’t help anything. I’m a white person, and I think it’s time we knew that this is not our place. We must be a support to our fellow human beings, but we can’t make it about us. It’s time to start actually taking responsibility for centuries

Indeed. Here he is with some avocados:

Sergio Romo is very lust worthy!

Milk chocolate and orange? Really? Naw. You have to go with the dark chocolate chunks here.

SHUT YOUR MOUTH WOMAN!
