Please write this. Police can interview a bunch of male witnesses who, when asked just shrug and say ‘i dunno; i didn’t even see anybody’ when they were looking right at her. 

I’m terrified of this and feel guilty for feeling that way! But then again, I never had the attention of men all that much in the first place. I just feel like the ‘fun’ part of my life will be over — the cute, sexy part, and I never got to really participate much, and never will again.

Shea moisture makes a black soap lotion that is working for me (works best if I exfoliate too) this winter. 

As someone who’s had to call out sick this week, thanks for picking up the slack for your coworkers! I hope they do the same for you when you need them, too. And good on The Hippie for finding something so clearly rewarding! (and necessary)

I’m fat and over 40, and black, so I’m used to being invisible, and not in a good, ‘freeing’ way, either. I miss being seen. I wish I knew what it is like to be wanted or desired. So while I understand the freedom that comes with not having to be concerned with what men like this want, it pains me a bit to know that I…

Bah. Let me know when something other than a wasp-waist is ‘in’. As long as you have an hourglass shape, designers are pretty much designing for you. Especially if you’re thin. 

Is it better than the Stila all day eyeliner? 

cats are Aldi same; they just want to laze about. 

I always wished we could find the names of all the people who attended the lynchings and were photographed doing so, and could just publish their names and the names of their families forthe same reasons.  Same goes for all the police officers who hosed protestors and the people who shouted at students trying to…

I just started re-watching it again too! *such* a good show. I’d love it if Netflix picked it up. 

that looks like *such* a lovely time! And that clottedcream and jam looks absolutely delicious!

happy news: my daughter (who has autism) just started a special needs karate class and seemed to really like it! Also, she has taken to saying “come sit by me”, which always makes me smile because she’s heard it often enough to pick it up and use it correctly. The kids at her camp this summer were great and so are her…

I firmly believe there is a hair color in white salons called ‘fox news blonde’ and that’s what they all get. 

how are you finding the gym? I’m around your weight and am reeeeeally scared of getting ‘the look’ from all the thin folks. 

This made me miss the planet fitness near my house where i used to live. The 5am crowd was super chill, everyone was made to feel welcome. Even the hardcore weightbros were okay if you had a question. I never got any of the lululemonlady stinkeyes I got at the ‘athletic club’ where we are now. Needless to say, my fat…

that sounds awesome. You also have unlimited peace and quiet. As a 40something, overweight black mom, I have long since outlived any semblance of desirability or visibility.

Yes! I've found my people! I've .so wished for another Losers movie. It was so fun!

yes to all of it except for that bag. I’m sure it costs more than my car but it just ... no thank you. 

Yes write this now please thank you. 

So what fragrance were you wearing that so mesmerized the imitation Migos?
