To your point: Since Oyéjidé is an attorney as well as a designer, I’m sure if he really thought he had a case here, he’d bring it somewhere other than IG.

Now, “The Carters” (Bey particularly) have been known to take some creative liberties, but this is a reeeeach of herculean proportions. Didn’t Watch the throne, MBDTF, Yonce and like a dozen other album’s of the past decade have a slew of Baroque, Pre-Raphealite, Renaissance style influences?

I’m not looking forward to a similar doctor visit, a upcoming long assed flight makes necessary. I have been getting anxiety on flights since my thirties, after I’d flown frequently for more than a decade with no such issues. Part of my pre flight tradition includes depriving myself of sleep so I’ll be tired enough to…

Just wanted to say a disclaimer: you do you and what works for you, but I’d recommend scoping out some resources that may (or may not) help, if you haven’t already. Seems like you have a good hold on it, but the reason I don’t keep guns in my house is because - even with my very mild mental challenges - one bad night…

She’s just one example of the rainbow of asshats I’ve had to encounter for my depression and anxiety. The anxiety wasn’t even diagnosed until I was well into my forties.

Long story short, I wasn’t dressed nice and they thought I had been drinking or a drug addict.

I bet you’ll find at least a few. Anytime a mentally ill person isn’t white or straight, it just creates an extra obstacle to them getting reliable care. Mental health care in particular requires a lot of empathy, and some people are incapable of feeling that for anyone who doesn’t look like them.

Yeah, there are a lot of people who go into “public service fields” (medical, police, etc) not because they want to help people but because they want impunity in mis-wielding power over the vulnerable.

She’s a doctor, not a nurse. Which, to my thinking, is all the more horrific.

Not gonna lie, I wasn’t sure until I read her name.

That’s exactly what I thought of when I saw that picture then read the pronoun “she” in reference to her.

Seriously! I looked at the headline then went down and looked at the picture and then I read this:

*Doctor

I know the type well. Had a nurse like this once. I almost died in the ER because her.

I saw that picture of her and honestly thought she was a dude.

Mental illnessses are already dismissed and mocked. Then add in racism and you get more untreated people. How many others did this nurse dismiss, they should review any deaths she may have caused as well.

Shelley Winter’s Stunt Double ain’t shit.

Interesting. As someone who loves Kanye’s music, and especially this new batch of projects, but cares not at all about his publicity stunts or whatever you want to call it, I would recommend a listen. He speaks much more clearly through his art.

“Equate” would be the wrong word and not entirely important, what he’s done was very different but enough to lose my support

Why you talking shit about uptowns? Granted i haven’t worn a pair since 2002, but fuck you, man! All white lows are classic.
