Congratulations on your recovery from AML! Cancer treatment is a bitch and I’m glad you got through it alive! I’ve had to give up on the feeling that I could control my body because I have a bunch of pain syndromes and autoimmune diseases. I’ve decided that my hair is in charge and the rest of me is merely the…

Ugh. THIS.

Jada and I have the same shaped head! I have that little dent in the front too.

Good for Miz Jada! In the past I have mentioned on this site and Jez that I’ve undergone cancer treatment; what I haven’t mentioned before now, however, is that the three different (extremely powerful) chemotherapies used to kill the Leukemia (AML) also killed my follicles; my hair grows to a certain length and then…

We have friends in their 20s and 30s whos sense of taste and smell are still totally fucked after mild infections last fall.

but the real question here is who looks better bald, JPS or Willy from Philly?

(edit: my vote would be JPS, she looks gooood.)

That part about not being able to eject her from the mall killed me. Since fucking when? I remember the cops who patrolled the mall near my high school acting with near impunity. Their mission: Identify any time more than two Black or Brown kids got within 20 feet of each other, then come charging in to break up “gang…

Elphick admitted that her fear was losing her job and apartment as a result of her “panic attack” being recorded

These people are literally toddlers who have never reached the emotional maturity level of an adult. This is literally a textbook case of Histrionic Personality Disorder and I GUARAN-FUCKING-TEE you this woman has done this to other people before.

Tik Tok is owned by racist fucks no different than Facebook. Delete from everyone using it.

Seems weird, cos the cops in Alabama had plenty of jurisdiction to go shoot up a Black man in the Army when he tried to save people from a mall shooter. Then they just “oopsie-daisy’d” their way out of that one.

Oh you mean the same tik tok that censors videos that have tags like “black lives matter” and “black audience” but is totally fine with tags like “white lives matter” and “white audience”?

Also, for some reason Tik Tok removed her account after posting the videos, but allowed them to exist on another person’s account who reposted them to millions of views? What’s that all about?

This is twice crazy:

This is the goal - the more of our shame they can bury, the easier it’ll be to implement openly racist agendas. The Republican Party will stop at nothing to undo civil rights - hell, I’d even go as far as to say that they hope to someday reinstate slavery (they’ve already effectively succeeded at reinstating Jim Crow…

Or even see what any student knows about Jim Crow. I grew up in New England (in a small mostly white town) and knew about slavery and racism and the Civil Rights movement and that’s pretty much all we were taught. The words Jim Crow were not mentioned. If you decided to do a paper in social studies on a topic having…

Yep, if this conservative trend isn’t cut off and rolled back, then a generation of kids will grow up not even aware of slavery in the U.S.

Really sucks for these two students, especially how it was handled, but outside people that peak in high school, it really shouldn’t matter. No idea why they wouldn’t use a weighted grading scale though; why shouldn’t you get extra credit for taking harder classes? Sounds like the handbook should get fixed.

It’s an important lesson for Ikeria Washington and Layla Temple, that no matter how hard you work, folks will always find a way to elevate white people.

More white tears, hey, when you let mediocre people be mediocre while telling them when they’re the best and that is their acceptable standard, the real world will show you the best of the best when the racist system and the world challenges you because your skin is a different color.
