Pop: always gonna be my fave. Five rings and when he actually talks to the press we get gems like “We Are Rome” and this masterpiece.

Peapods or snow peas are also tasty. Asparagus is like “the only part worth eating is the part with the leaves and that’s if it’s FRESH”.

Reality of life in Texas: you’re actually a little sad that an ex-NSA dude you actively campaigned against is retiring. (Will Hurd, pretty sure we were coming at “the whole border wall/immigration policy is messed up” deal from opposite ends but when the result is a vote I agree with, things could be way worse. Also

God doesn’t even forgive unless you honestly repent and work to be a better human being in the future. I don’t see her doing that.

“We may be evil but we have standards and she does not meet them”. ALL THE STARS INDEED.

White as all get-out, and I still want to slap this MF’er upside the head. Willing to bet that the “Confederate flag” he had is actually Robert E. Lee’s battle flag, which nope, sorry, that automatically makes you a hater. (The only legit Confederate flag is the one that the 1st Minnesota took 82% casualties to

I still think the best Deadspin article has to be the one where some random white dude went to go see Mr. B the “he is a CHONK of a chonk” 28-pound kitteh at Morris Animal Rescue in Philly. 

Did y’all go through a “take the prep fee out of the refund” deal? Because that’s been confusing people’s checks, although more stimulus than actual refund. Also, it IS theoretically possible that they need your hubby’s employer to verify (I’m a seasonal tax preparer for one of the big boxes, so I have heard weirder

I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t survive being black/Latina/indigenous/etc. in this country, considering I’m taking 20-ish pills/day (if you include the OTCs), am routinely seeing somewhere from 4-7 medical pros/year, and might not have even been able to qualify for SSDI had I not checked off “white cis college grad who

Two thumbs up from this “I’m OFFICIALLY crazy, the government’s giving me a check for it” white lady. Beat those YouTube “extra-special snowflakes” down HARD.

Ditto on the “disabled white woman” (I ID as queer instead of gay, though). I am also literally the “some of my best friends are mixed” meme and my neighborhood’s mostly Latinx with a few other varieties of PoCs by US standards. It’s probably changed my perspective at least some, but I’m all too aware at times that

COVID-19 stay-at-home as much as possible has my bipolar II jacked-up hardcore and I couldn’t even BS this much despite basically doing it for a paycheck..I’m not even sure which is the most f*cked-up thing in this essay, although if I had to pick I’d probably go for “being held for an hour counts as police

From a white lady living in South Texas now but is from northwestern Wisconsin, white people seriously scare me worse than anybody else.

I’m good with whoever decided to burn down the Fayetteville building that used to be a slave market. (As in, I hope nobody figures out who exactly did it or at least who the system could make a quasi-reasonable case against and will be sending a small portion of my disability check to their gofundme if needed.)

Am white, and clearly they read the same social studies books that I was exposed to in high school. (As in, very very white perspective on American history. Pretty sure they don’t know a) what a “sundown town” is b) anything about the various “riots” that amounted to “EEK BLACK PEOPLE HAVE THEIR OWN BUSINESSES/HOMES

WTF? The slang around here is mostly Spanglish (I live in South Texas and my neighborhood’s 70% Latinx) so something like “her feet would look ugly in <i>chanclas</i>“ might sort of make sense, but that statement made less sense than the dude who asked me how to deal with his meth dealing income for federal tax

As a survivor, I hope a miracle occurs and at least a few of those “gotta have my guns to scare my partner/ex/kids/dogs” types go the Darwin Award route with no collateral damage.

no kidding. i’m pretty much a heathen (my holy trinity for prayer purposes is bastet because i’m a rescue cat mama, st. jude because “hopeless cases” describes most things i might be motivated to pray for, and st. francis of assisi), but my tumblr bud’s church went to youtubed services/google hangouts split up by age

you have any non-cis-dude friends who like ladies who prefer their drinks on the “stereotypical ‘girly’ drink” side? (am amused).
