Kill self because I'm too good to live in a world where these dudes exist.

Yeah. I hate to snark on a child but it's crazy she can say "The whole world is watching me, every single thing I do" without any acknowledgement of how she broadcasts everything she does on Instagram. Like, QUE?
I agree with this sentiment so hard. I've loved Calvin since he "created disco" and after Ready for the Weekend (which is free of flaws) things haven't been the same. Sigh.
While I agree with your comment, I also can't help but feel like Sandberg preaches trickle-down feminism. And the problem with trickle-down anything is that it never actually trickles down beyond the few already-privileged individuals it's intended to benefit. Even though she can't speak for (mostly female) service…
Clearly to them "A girls" are not black. They say you can be any race which means they actually think they were being progressive. The highest grade you can receive as a black woman is grade b and that's only if you have light skin. This casting call is so fucked up on so many levels, I hope no one sees this…
In addition to teaching her kid shitty and inaccurate vocabulary, apparently her mom was super abusive.
Not to go full armchair psychologist but she seems straight up mentally ill. That doesn't mean she's excused for her ignorance and homophobic statements though but she could really use some counseling.
As a black woman, I think she has the right to cry foul about a white woman, in the same genre as her, is getting far more press and attention for what are clearly inferior skills. There is a history of black people needing to be twice as good as white people to be considered half as good. Eminem's music has a lot of…
British Kit-Kats. They are amazing. I'm going to my local import shop to buy them all and freeze them because I can't imagine a world without them.
This documentary looks an effing mess. There are legitemate issues to discuss in terms of the fetishization fair skin black women face and how the root of this is white supremacy but this doesn't look like that. This looks like a filmmaker egging light skin women on to compete in the Oppression Olympics against dark…
She is a little much with those pronunciations. It comes off as super affected because she has no other detectable accent. But yeah, people are haters and the hate she gets is ridiculously over the top.
101. Internet commenters who insist on commenting on articles covering trends they're not aware of to say how a trend must be stupid or nonexistent because they don't know about it and refuse to derive the meaning from the context given in the article. These individuals may or may not have a broken Google.
I said this above but Beyonce employs an all-female band: http://colorlines.com/archives/2013/…
That's basically what it was! He didn't even do it maliciously, just with the attitude that if sales associates were just dying to be helpful, he'd let them help him out. He still does this whenever he's getting a lot of "attention" in a store and it never stops being funny. Sometimes, he'll up the ante and ask for a…
IA. I also think it's safe to assume anything you write from or to a corporate e-mail account is not private. If the company is sued, e-mails can be subpoenaed and the contents can be made public record. Corporate e-mail is not private.
I've never shoplifted. I'm black and was raised by a single father. Every time we went shopping for anything except groceries, sales associates constantly followed us around the store as if we were thieves. It was clear to me pretty early on that shopping (or doing anything in public) while black could be a hassle so…
We also live in a world where people bandy about the term satire to make excuse for shitty things they write or say so forgive people for not recognizing it because it's often misused.
Kara, Taylor Swift desperately wants to be like most of white America because THAT IS HER BRAND. Black people have bigger fish to fry than coming up with ways to make Ms. Swift a less terrible dancer. Our people have struggled enough.
Yeah. I usually love Kara's articles but IDK about this one. I get that it's satire but no me gusta. When we live in a world that constantly forces tokenism instead of diversity, and an article suggesting as much about someone's friends that doesn't end in "STOP WITH THE TOKENISM, WORLD. " rubs me the wrong way.
