There was a documentary on a little girl somewhere remote in Russia who’s junkie parents abandoned her. She was found raised by a pack of wild dogs. She growled or yipped, and moved on her hands and either knees or balls of her feet. The dogs were so protective of her. It was really interesting but sad.

Especially when you look at her before and after plastic surgery pictures. It’s great that dyeing your hair blond and cutting up/filling your face=attractive.

It’s exactly the same as how black people are tasked with constantly educating and enlightening white people on inequality and micro-aggressions. The mentality being, if you are at the top of the ladder and something doesn’t affect you, why do you need to know about it? You’ll still benefit and live a comfortable

I wish we did.

Exactly. It’s ultimately just negating the point of marriage. So, you’re basically agreeing that marriage is not natural because men are naturally tempted around other women who aren’t their wives, so then aren’t people not meant to be monogamous? So cut out the ridiculous rule book and simply don’t get married. But

My boyfriend is 20 years older than me and this has been the most balanced, communicative, intellectually even relationship I’ve ever been in (plus the sex thing which is no contest when compared to guys my age). We’ve been together for three years and I see it lasting. I had to get used to other women being

My high school physics teacher believed that sleep was unnecessary and robbed humans of achieving their full potential. He was a smug asshole who angrily argued about basic truths. He dropped dead of an aneurysm at age 40. Probably should have caught some z’s.

Was just going to say this. So many black families ( mine included) have southern, northern, west coast, and east coast members because portions of the family broke off from the south in search of better education, less overt racism, and job opportunities. It was dangerous, grueling, and they had no resources but

Yes.

Every Trump supporter needs to watch that documentary about his business venture to wipe out historic sand dunes in Scotland for a golf course. He’s a horrible business man, makes a huge mess of the project and the Scottish community, and it ends up just like how he’s so far miss managed and made a mess of trying to

Exactly. And if the bystander is wrong, the girl will let them know, but the great majority of the time the bystander’s instincts about the guy’s behavior are correct. Guys in normal public places try the “what time is it? (Even though there are business men wearing Rolexs right there), followed by the “I need

I live in NY and have been saved by people standing or sitting near me from dudes who just wouldn’t take a hint. Thank god fur eavesdroppers. Also, I think she’s using “eavesdropping” as a quick way to say they were close enough to overhear a public conversation. Guys just don’t understand that women are between a

Haven’t had facebook in three years. Would never go back. While people are stressed out fighting over comments, posts, and likes at work, I’m planning my brunches, weekend activities and museum hangouts with my real friends, who can *gasp* call or text me to catch up. Facebook is a brainwashing time suck that’s

Exactly. That’s the difference between faith and facts. Until you have facts, keep YOUR faith to yourself.

And go in well dressed, respectable groups to watch lynchings. Or watch lions tear men apart in colloseums. Each generation likes to think it’s more “modern” or “advanced” than those previous. Nope. Same shit, different decade. Will this species ever learn and evolve? Or self implode? Given the choice of current US

There’s a really great Chris Rock stand up segment about how men only pretend to care about certain things to get women. He said “We’d live in cardboard boxes on the sidewalk if there were no women. We do our best (which isn’t much) for women.” Kind of sad but true. I work in manhattan and whenever I see a very well

Fun anecdote: I am a millennial living in Brooklyn and I nannied for a year for extra money while freelancing. I cosign the “who are these people?” sentiment  100%. Most of the parents “didn’t believe in the word no, because children need to learn to arrive at their own conclusion creatively” (huh? They’re 5 years

Thanks. She hosted an anti bigotry dinner party with all of our most multi ethnic friends to cancel the negative energy. Instances like this are escalating though.

I live in ny. Last week my best friend who is El Salvadoran and Native American but adopted and raised by white parents, was on the subway. A teenager kept forcefully bumping her (the train wasn’t packed so he had plenty of room) spilling her coffee. She politely pointed out that he was bumping into her. He kept doing

Tourism is way down in New York. Retailers are really struggling.
