that was part of her excuse why she accepted the gig, that her “family” relied on her paper. well, their asses gonna have to get jobs now.

i’m sure tiger “cablasian (notice how caucasian came first in that portmanteau) or whatever the hell he think he is” is feeling that burn right about now...

there are white people who will never have respect for people of color because of their supremacist beliefs. they view us as not being that much higher than an animal in the hierarchy. it wasn’t that long ago that blacks were sometimes featured in actual zoos:

it would be unacceptable for all, including minorities, to dress in blackface (esp. since anti-black sentiments are rife in some ethnicities). this work both ways as earlier this year a couple of black women at an afro-punk event was called out for wearing native american gear. minorities don’t get a pass for…

these days, i would refer to the phrase “right-wing friend” as an oxymoron.

too late correction: “argue” should be “argument”; sorry.

i posted the same on a similar argue some months ago at rawstory. i dare anybody to tell me to go back to africa when my ancestors, having arrived here 400 years ago, preceded any f**k ass family who came through ellis island centuries later. they’re the ones who need to leave.

i posted a couple of weeks ago about a rash of car thefts in a chicago suburban area where the cars were stolen because the owners left the doors open...with the keys in the ignition. it may be a cultural difference, but damn i could never be that trusting. and i think the owners of the purloined cars now feel the…

she was really in pain during her k.ci. days.

i felt this way when the black descendants of thomas jefferson and sally hemings fought so hard to be included in the official family lineage. i’m like, yeah y’all really caping for that rapist ancestor of yours. personally, i would have spit on his grave and called it a day.

why am i reminded of alien nation?

you’re never too young to be taught that your body is yours. i saw on FB a woman’s article that she taught her daughter that it’s ok not to hug or kiss anybody the little girl didn’t want to. this teaches even at a young age that a child has agency over her/his body.

i recently saw a pic of marlo “free to be me” thomas and she sports the duck lips that indicate collagen shots. so even she of the first wave feminists has shown that she has internalized the harmful messages regarding what makes a woman “attractive.”

what i don’t understand, given how far removed she is from the subject, why did the nyt even ask her to run a piece?

i flagged him, too.

ironically, i recently read a #metoo account of an orthodox woman, who as a child, went to an orthodox school and dressed in a uniform. did not prevent her from getting raped at a young age (and i would assume the predator was someone in the community).

he probably thinks it abuts nambia (or the tanzania that rhymes with tasmania)...

i think of marie barone from everyone loves raymond. she was so infantilizing that he even admitted that he wanted to be taken care of like a little boy. sometimes his character made me feel violent. just a disgusting man-child.

when i think of an example of a self-hating dominican, newly white-ass sosa comes to mind...
