That Betty White meme is going to be the answer to anything and everything for quite a while longer, I’m afraid... Do we even want to imagine the scenario if the colour scheme were reversed? I kinda don’t.

If they can co-opt the “ok,” sign. We can use Betty.

I work in health care, and my experience with psychosomatic illnesses is that there is severe, untreated trauma and an inability to express emotional pain. Some people are more self aware and understand the origin, but sadly, most don’t have the tools.

So what if a disease is psychosomatic? Really. The suffering is real all the same.

I hope someone offers mental health services, life coaching, education, and job training to Ms. Brown so she can have at least 1/2 a chance out here. Maybe she can become an advocate for all the other women who’ve been incarcerated for protecting themselves. There is no way she should have ever been convicted in the…

And it will trap her in poverty, too. I recently had a member of my family take a shitty plea deal* that had him on probation for a couple years, and I had no clue until then that you have to PAY for the “privilege” of being on parole. (I guess I assumed parole officers drew their salaries from our tax dollars,…

That isn’t passive aggressive, that’s just aggressive aggressive.

God, passive aggressive notes are still a thing that white people do? 

This is just them saying the quiet part loud. the entire point of a dress code is to police the bodies of PoC and women.

Me too

I dont care what anyone says, I put my home state's ignorance and racism up there with anywhere in the US

OK, Camille. Quit trolling articles about yourself.

You shouldn’t need to have a black child to find racism offensive.

lol i gotta stop pulling that kinda shady shit

Oh sure it looks bad, but that's only because you put exactly what they said into print with the appropriate amount of context around it to get across exactly what they were trying to say!

They are taken aback because they are Reaganites and if St Reagan was racist that makes them racist too. The only thing white people find worse than actual racism is finding out they are racists. At this rate it will take another 45 years before they concede Reaganomics was racist, classist bullshit. Growth?

I’m also shocked that Ronald Reagan never wrote explicitly racist stuff in journals he knew full well would one day be made public. Everybody knows real racists write everything down, you know, for posterity.
