Pfft, I am on the mother's side here.

I wish every single pundit/politician on earth lived in fear of their mom calling them publicly on their shit.

Aw, shucks. I put my Chuck E. costume on one gigantic foot at a time, just like everyone else.

Um, is it weird if I'm kind of fangirling over A BCO AUTHOR COMMENTING ON MY COMMENT??

Jesus Christ: Up. I still can't even talk about that movie. I knew my now-husband was a keeper when he all but crawled into my seat in the theater to comfort me through my blubbering. I AM WELLING UP RIGHT NOW. If Up is on in an electronics store, I have to leave.

There should be a study done about skin color's effect on hiring in corporate environments, controlling for region of country/ world. In the Gulf South for instance, if you go in any large office building, where everyone there has a degree, nearly every time, it's an all-white environment, with a few light skinned…

That part of the story is so confusing....basically the family was punished with a fine. I doubt the 12 year old was the one who paid the fine. Whatever happened to giving the girls a can of paint and making them clean up the bathroom after school? The punishment was so wildly disproportionate and inappropriate to…

As a dark skinned woman, not only does this NOT surprise me, but I can relate to it. I've never been suspended at school for anything, but I've been punished for petty shit. When I was 14 my friends and I were playing with markers at a grocery store. This white lady who works there was asking us what we were doing…

"and no one took it seriously" or at least you hope.

I want to fart on this guy after a week of eating nothing but pepperoni and dried fruit.

With a name like Barack Ebola, I can smell the sarcasm from miles away (also with my Jewish nose. we're pretty good with sarcasm—every last one of us!)

Shrayber is cuter than either of these spray-tanned tool sheds. Exhibit A looks like he never shuts up about the stuff he did when he was vice prez of his frat, and Exhibit B looks like a rejected bouncer from a Russian mafia-owned strip joint.

I shudder for the people who will think you're serious.

Y'know, despite the fact racists are hardly ever logical, I gotta wonder how he got to "large bottoms don't move fast".

"One dubious courtier mocked her outright, saying that the Queen's pregnancy would 'end in wind rather than anything else."

That's just White people being White people. The zombie apocalypse could happen and they'd still fear Black or other minorities more than zombies. That's how fucked up their perceptions about us are. We're doomed.

I want to be shocked, but the last few years have taught me I'm wrong. Like the Chris Rock joke has shown, FB has been a great app fro showing me who's a racist.

This shouldn't be all that surprising. Just because someone is on the other side of the aisle doesn't mean that they have the opposite view on every single possible issue. The differences are important and worth fighting over but the common ground used to be where bi-partisan legislation came from.

"I am very worried that administration concern for external crime is replacing concern for internal crime. The greater problem is date rape, or assaults by other students, which the planned system would do nothing to stop."
