Exactly, if everyone judged themselves by white elites, the world would be a worse place. It also can’t be stressed enough how shitty the NOI is to everyone other than straight men.

“They pick up broken people and put them back together, people no one else wants to bother with.”

It’s complicated but I agree that we must have standards for our own. I just don’t care to hear condemnation from those who don’t hold their own accountable.

Yaaaaassss

For fear of government death panels, we endorsed the continued existence of private, for-profit death panels.

That was basically the message I sent my dad’s sisters when I asked my ex for a divorce. They are nosy and obnoxious as fuck, and I didn’t want to deal with their shit. So I just sent a facebook message that said “Hey, we are splitting up. This is a really rough time and I’m not ready to talk about it now, but I…

At some point, we can’t keep treating awards shows like the court of public opinion.

Dictionary apps that feature audio pronunciation. Life changing.

Seacrest needs to be over now. He gave us the Kardashian Krew. He is what’s wrong with America.

These are all dark-skin actors playing Africans and I feel like it would have just been off to see me as a biracial American with a Nigerian accent just pretending that I’m the same color as everyone else in the movie.

WAIT. Rue was NEVER blonde haired or blue eyed in the books or movie. She was specifically described as darker skinned. But because she was always described as “innocent” and “fragile” people nixed the physical description and envisioned a blonde haired, blue eyed white girl.

can we start talking about how rappers are so easily convinced with money to hop on these garbage ass songs? i still blame TI for trying to excuse and push this broad, and all these niggas are far too ok with hopping on tracks giving these white folk their much needed ‘cred’ and ability to get spins on hip hop/r&b…

I personally can’t abide the stuff, but most of the other women in my family are scotch drinkers. But they aren’t buying Johnny Walker with or without a woman on the label.

The thing is that most people here in North America don’t give two shits about how the animals they eat are treated. This is about a white man pushing his entirely arbitrary moral standards onto another culture.

There is a difference between a prostate exam and a consented sexual activity where you get penetrated and stimulated LOL. Not everyone will like it, but yeah, medical examinations should not be your tell for an activity to be enjoyable. Ask any woman about a pelvic exam, or a breast exam.

Splendid!! My morning just got that much brighter. Time to get out my tightest, reddest grave-dancin’ dress and polish up my very best fuckme stilettos, and motor on out to that funeral!

$25 million? I hope he spent some of that money on lessons on getting camels through the eyes of needles.

Yes. So true. I was just thinking about this the other day. And as a someone, who has pulled themselves up by the bootstraps. I can tell you that that whole bootstrapping mantra is some BS. We should not foster our children or adults to support that fairy tale of respectability.

The problem is that the administration of the death penalty has been marked by a pretty consistent history of bias, racism and class-ism. If we had a justice system that worked - you didn’t have PDs with ridiculous caseloads, we got rid of cash bail and set up monitoring programs, we weren’t engaged in a futile war on…

True and I think an effective way to counter that shame and embarrassment is to use part of the bootstrappyness, which is how being so poor taught you x, y, and z. Instead of just talking about it though take it a step further and teach about it. You can see and hear it in Viola’s face and voice that who she and her…
