Somebody hungry for a knuckle sandwich and a bottle of punch?

I’m desperately trying to keep my cat from cooking our family dinner every night.

Mission accomplished!

When I was in college, I had to help curate the collection of the recently deceased Senator John Tower— hundreds of boxes of material including a very special three boxes that were labeled “NUTS.” The contents of those boxes from three decades of letter-writing cranks (which the library staff would use for comic…

Same — but Boston prefers to have its racism be homegrown and less obvious.

That video with the tuba player never ceases to be funny.

Boston is a complicated and difficult city, with much to be proud of and much to be ashamed of. On a normal day, for every person throwing a rock at a schoolbus of children who “aren’t from this neighborhood” there’s one who says, “CUT THAT SHIT OUT.”

Nah man,...it’s aight.

Surely someone out there is working on a DDoS against... Whatwasitagain... bitmitigate.com

Thanks, for this thoughtful, patient (and undeserved) response.
I’ve had many conversations with my closest friend, who’s a Black Woman from Cali,..she lives here and tells me of what her experience was like back home,..I’ll never fully understand it, but I do know this, it makes me very angry.

Thanks for your comments,
Some good advice here. We do have a lot of expat US Black friends, whom we see regularly, and yes Black Women are included in that group.
We celebrate US holidays together, and gather around soul food.
We are also surrounded by a lot of friends from various African countries.
We’ve been married…

Even as I watched Tina wolf down way too much cake, I understood that if we stayed home eating cake, there would be no more demonstrators for the Nazis to murder, which is their reason for even being on the street at all. The only thing that would make sense to me would be to line their parade route, and silently turn…

I’m changing my name.

I have been retweeting every Republican who strongly condemns racism and hate, in hopes of laying down a little bit of framework to get to a point where “we may disagree, sometimes strongly, but we are all still human beings.”

I’ll still throw money, time, and votes to their opponents. But I try to demonize only the…

OR you can donate money for every slice you eat, eat while you’re making those calls or out protesting. We don’t have a lot these days and we shouldn’t have to choose between the little pleasures left.

Apparently you’ve never dealt with toxic parents before. My own father is a hardcore narcissist, an avowed anti-Semite that blames Jews for all his problems, and anti-white to boot. And when I called him out on it, he threw a temper tantrum. So, you’re saying I should just grin and bear his toxicity? I should just say…

For real though, then, what do we do? I’m a (foreign) white wife and mama,..My Black husband and I chose to bring up our kids in my home country overseas after I spent some time living in the racist South with him and his fam...a crash course in racial reality, that busted my white bubble completely.  

Fun Fact: “Blood is thicker than water” is often mis-quoted. It used to refer to the bond between soldiers shedding enemy blood is stronger than family ties.

I hate “Back in MY day...” shit, but jesus, I remember the skinheads that used to come to ruin punk and metal shows could at least take and give a fucking punch/bite/chair leg. If you’re some doughy soft fuck who doesn’t want to be despised and have the shit kicked out of them regularly, perhaps you should find…
