I know they do. And it tears me up inside (as a white person with long straight hair). I used to teach in a school where I was one of three white people and the way the girls reacted to my hair made me so sad. The way they would pet it and talk about wishing they had 'good' hair... I wanted to rip it off my head…

I am so angry about this. I just ... I want to get her the biggest card and the softest stuffed animal and get the whole Internet to sign it, saying that she's beautiful and perfect exactly as she is.

I'm very wary of Saga.

Agent 355, Yorick's lonely life ... waaaaaaaaah. I need a hug.

But business used to pay a living wage before we deregulated everything. Unskilled labor used to feed a family while factory work was comfortably middle class. It's just not ok for people to be treated this way. We're all human beings and need to care for eachother. If we don't, we just won't make it as a country or a…

That, right there. The word deserve.

Every human being deserves that. It does not matter if it is skilled or unskilled because it is the labor that…

May I ask, are you white?

La la la la la, I can't hear you, la la la la la ...

I came to the HP party late, only read them after DH came out. Thus, I was spoiled on several key points going in. I'll never know if I would have figured it out! Had me sniffling tons, regardless.

You're making me blush!
