I’m so tired of my curly hair not being “nice” or “professional” enough. It’s so ridiculous that curly hair has some kind of weird value attached to it.

My ex* posted a screed on Facebook about how it’s all white people who think the name is offensive and no actual Native Americans care. So our daughter linked him a dozen Native tribes and organizations that are opposed to the name. He deleted all her comments from his page.

Me: Would you call a Native American a Redskin to their face?

In the American Indian communities, many of us have been saying it was offensive for years but no one listened. Social media has made it a little easier to get our message out.

Stages of me attempting to watch this, illustrated by Prince:

I remember having that debate in high school. It was like-bitch, I’m a member of the Menominee Indian Tribe and I know what I’m talking about. I think I “won” by telling her “than why don’t I feel honored” and dramatically walking again.

I started my morning with having a debate with a Trump supporter about why the term Redskins is deragatory.

Exactly, I said this in my own comment but call it “1920’s themed” and stop there.

I kind of want the courts to just give to Disney’s PR people as an indentured servant or something. They are serious about their image, he would probably never see the light of day again.

one year in jail.

This guy needs a fast track jury trial: Punishment? An eternity of listening to It's a Small World After All on continous loop.

I demand an apology from this woman and everyone else who exploited his “hero” funeral to undermine Black Lives Matter.

Let’s say I’m the child of gay parents (I actually am, but I digress) and let’s say for some bass ackwards reason, I decide I really, really want to be Mormon. There’s no more sure fire way to make me hate your church and feel you’re a bunch of jerks than for you to shun me for something I have no control over.

My step dad was excommunicated for sexually abusing me. The idea that my lesbian daughter could get the same punishment enrages me.

I’m am in favor of this being the new blow job.

Men will never get along. It’s just in their DNA. They are constantly fighting over territory, political power and the attention of women.

Hey look, I can make sweeping generalizations too!

Last night my 10 year old daughter said to me, “Don’t be mad... but sometimes I look in the mirror and I think about how lucky I am that I am so pretty.” Ugh. My heart broke. I try so hard to communicate implicitly and explicitly that her value as a person isn’t in her appearance. But how am I supposed to work against…

True Story.. In my youth, I went on a date with a Russian guy I met at a club (bad idea 1) and we were talking over dinner when he told me that his favorite book and movie were American Psycho, because he wanted to be just like the main guy, minus all the murdery parts. Needless to say, I was fairly certain he might…

My ex started off as a showering person, but then stopped caring. He wasn’t depressed or anything either. He figured he already had a girlfriend at this point, so why try? (apparently general hygiene = trying)

Absolutely - and she’ll get called a bitch for it. Women are constantly told they should lower their standards in dating, and made to feel bad for having any “dealbreakers” at all. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with guys having specific things they want in a mate, but this also shouldn’t be wrong for women…
