I once faxed my crush asking him out - I used the fax number from the school directory. Turns out it was his mom’s work fax...and she worked at the school.

Yo, if he goes to Paideia, he ain’t never gonna be on welfare.

dad?

I’ve been agonising over something that transpired yesterday, that is an interpersonal problem where bigotry or any kind of -ism doesn’t even play into it. Like, this is sleepless-night-my-friend-is-upset-with-me level shit.

Wow, you really showed that kid.

Coast on welfare. Really.

You think it’s a gender thing? Because I disagree. If there’s anything Justine Sacco’s downfall showed us, it’s that the social media shame machine doesn’t discriminate on the basis of gender. And of course racism at the age of 14 is deplorable for any person. And you can tell a 14 year old racist that they are…

What’s the alternative you’re advocating for? Like, what’s supposed to happen after this theoretical age limit for racism that’s an alternative to shrugging it off as young and dumb? Any person, despite their age, is capable of recognizing the evils of their former points of view, and moving forward as a better human…

My friend just texted me yesterday with screenshots of handwritten notes (how analog!) we left in each other’s lockers or passed in class in high school. I am torn between texting “Burn them! Burn them now!” and “OK, let’s fortify this trip down memory lane with lots of alcohol.”

Most six year olds in our society are racist to some degree, sadly. They absorb it from society around them and don’t yet have the critical thinking skills to recognize or contradict it. There are studies.

I’m sorry for the time I handed out cupcakes on my 15th birthday, which also happened to be National Pro-Life Cupcake Day. I was a Bible-thumping, “born again,” pro-life teen whose heart bled for all the dead fetuses.

All that mattered was the feathered hair.

If she is actively making amends, that isn’t shugging it off. If she is active in antiracism that isn’t shrugging it off. IOF we leave no roo for people to grow and evolve then we all have to spring fully formed from the head of Zeus with perfect knowledge of any and all things, untouchable by our culture. I may be a…

Ugh, I know. Kids are such tryhards. Like my Nephew recently got really into metal and I was like, dude, I’ve been into Metal since before you were born. Dick.

Im embarrassed for accidentally waving at someone I thought I was a friend last week, I can’t imagine going all the way back to 14.

Mine is mostly related to drugs and the things I did while I was on them, so just don’t do drugs! Hahaha.

I’m sorry that I told all my friends that my parents were blacklisted during McCarthyism when I was 14. It doesn’t even make any sense, they weren’t even born yet and are regular people that are neither communists or entertainers. I’m an idiot.

I think he’s like anyone person who just discovered these social movements. I’m sure many of us were pretty insufferable when we discovered certain causes. Besides, we should always try to embrace men, even young ones..heck, specifically young ones... to have a knee jerk reaction that a teenager is a future groper as…

Hold up, now we have to explain to peeps who The Flight of the Conchords are? =(

I mean...ok. I don’t agree that any critique of another woman is bringing all women back, and I generally criticize women for the same things I do men—because I want to treat them equally. I spend a lot of time talking shit about pretentious dudes because it’s fun to do, so I’ll keep spending some time talking shit…
