Just chiming in, exercise can absolutely be done in conjunction with diet for healthy, sustainable loss. When I started losing weight, I used intermittent fasting to reduce my intake and worked out 3x a week, plus walking in the day. Years later, I’ve kept the weight off and now work out almost every day. For some…

Ugh, King Beauregard, what’s your problem, even? There’s a STRANGER giving you unsolicited advice on the INTERNET about a problem she’s never even experienced. Stop what you’re doing right now and get on it!

“it requires at least a superficial understanding of American history to understand the context.”

You want to get under the skin of a white person call them white trash. I’ve found that always works best. They are so conditioned to believe in their superiority that the minute any non-white person looks down their nose at them they become an unhinged babbling mess. The main reason we are now stuck in the world of…

A few years back my NYC based former employer wanted me to relocate to a small “city” of 21,000 in Oregon. I refused. They just couldn’t understand why I a black woman didn’t want to live in a place where the black population was 1.9% and the KKK exists. They really didn’t get it and I was labeled difficult.

The entire way this country works is by convincing white people that they are the underdogs in their own personal movie. That anyone that is different is just like the baddies in every action movie they’ve ever watched where one white guy slaughters an arm full of brown people. And that we’re all just waiting for the…

I think you’re extracting some ideas which aren’t there (in its use as a noun). It’s just shorthand for “professional who monetizes creative skills.” There’s no implied insult, you’re just kind of projecting that. I earn my living as a freelance photographer. I consider myself a creative and many of my colleagues in…

Yes. When I saw that, I thought, “Hmmnnh. Where’s the rest of that sentence?” Especially when I saw some of the other grammatical errors...

ha this is too funny- you know you just gave me a solution right? apparently this impulse is deep.

yes!!!! can confirm and was coming here to say this exact thing- it’s not that i want comfort instead of solutions, or comfort then solutions, from my husband- it’s that i want solutions from myself, and comfort from him. when solutions come from him, i learn nothing, i gain no confidence, and it feels like my life…

They don’t even have to look far for the solution:

DC: Quit making your characters assholes and they’ll be more cinematic.

HA!! You don’t know how much my morning needed this.

I got into it with some hillbots who kept blaming black people for not “turning out for Hillary like they did for Obama” (which, bitch, what? Blame your white 53% sistren). Black voters overwhelmingly showed up for Hillary, both in the primaries and the Presidential election. But with the Voting Rights act being…

The Russian bots worked because of people’s racism

For some reason, one factor I have not seen being discussed as to why black voter turnout was down in 2016 elections is voter suppression and gerrymandering. Do folks not remember how black voters were basically being turned away from the polls that year?

THANK YOU.

Spent months in/around Harrisburg. Pennsylvania is an abyss where hopes and dreams of driving safely die.

The PA road system is fucked no matter what color you are.

“Mental illness” is an anagram for: I’m white it’s not my fault.
