Barack’s pictures with children and his genuine delight interacting with them is one of the 1,000 things I will miss about him.

this. being told you’re smart and talented and should be doing better than you are is like needles all over your face. I’ve been told that i’m naturally smart so many times and all it does is make me feel like shit for being so average academically and socially (like- really really average). it also undercuts my…

I can’t compare the pressures but I don’t know that I’ll ever feel okay about my parenting since it didn’t come naturally or easily for me. The worst case of impostor syndrome I’ve ever experienced.

I’m available.

Sometimes I think the Internet and all the dialogue can have negative consequences. I’m in a not so great place in life and the internet can be a bit rabbit hole I fall down creating validation of my anxieties which cause me to do...nothing.

“They’re cute, they’re complicated, and they’re about to become family”

It might help to donate to Distributing Dignity. They give pads and tampons (and bras) to women in need, not women in prison, but it’s something.

The other thing I notice is that Wolf repeatedly apologizes to the woman and notes how humiliating this must be for her. The judge is not a hero—but this should be obvious to anyone who recognizes that black women possess the same humanity as everyone else.

Not to nitpick, but what’s wrong with saying he was addicted? Addiction can be physical or psychological dependence and is more often than not a mix of both.
