And heritage knows exactly how to deal with uppity, mouthy women of color and put them in their place :/

Frappacino of hate, then :) Same concept, but at the risk that someone will order it half caf, skinny and grande

Intersectionality of hate

10-14 is “plus sized”? Is that in the real world or just the fashion world?

Now fancy that! Letters are going to AME female pastors, but not female Episcopal priests or female pastors of any other faith. Racism under a mask of misogyny/mixed with misogyny, perchance?

He has made the oft fatal mistake of believing his own PR. Common affliction of megalomaniacs everywhere

Well that is a visual that will haunt me

I have ghosted before. We had been dating for 6 months, things were not going well, I kept dumping him, be would not hear me and refused to acknowledge the relationship was over. So I quit my job, dumped my phone, shut down all social media, and moved back to the rez. It was hard but I was at my wits end and it was…

Maybe. I kind of got that impression for some reason

And white, do not forget that. It was so important that he had to say it twice

I would settle for one that screened for grammar and spelling.

My mind immediately went to the scatological too

Just let her think that her family is doing fine. Trust me on this, nothing can be more hurtful or rage making than being told by someone who does not know your experience what your experience is. She will learn economic matters and class differences soon enough.

I had the opposite experience. I thought my family was rich because my mom and grandmother worked for our Tribal government. We had a phone! We had a TV! We had a newish truck!

Maybe she WAS a woodland nymph who had become incontinent due to age and was leaking. Those rose petals might have been nymph poop

Exactly. If you are exposed to a violent ideology and have a mental health issue you might lash out at the ideological target. After all, people in your culture without mental illnesses also lash out at that target. The mental illness did not cause it.

And a drink or 10. Seriously, pour that subtitler a shot and keep them coming

I can see that. I tend to not lie about physical traits because they are kind of obvious, but definitely have friends who lie about things like weight, clothes sizes and (oddly enough) shoe sizes. I get the desire to lie about height and weight because of beauty norms, but never have understood the shoe thing.

I had a man try to teach me my own people’s culture and history once. I kept repeating, “No that is not right. I am O’odham and grew up in [district of Tohono O’odham Nation].” But he just kept talking over me. I am not sure what made me more angry, the mansplaining or the notnativesplaining

See, I would not subtract the two inches and still wear heels. If I am taller than him and he has a problem with it, he probably ought to reconsider fudging his height. However, I am never likely to be in this situation since most people over age 14 are taller than me, so what do I know?
