I remember the heady days of 1993. My high school class were going to “crash” a dance — a Sr yr tradition — usually “in costume.” I suggested “sunglasses” but the popular girls suggested “indian brave feathers” (head band with feather sticking up at the back). I brought up that this was really appropriation, a form of

Let’s take the word “racist” out of this conversation. This photo shoot is “cultural appropriation.” Cultural appropriation is NOT any and all cultural borrowing. It is cultural borrowing that takes place within a context where one culture dominates another. In this case we are talking about the culture of New York

WELL DONE!

The cover is the ONLY reason I knew about this series. It looked really cool in the bookstore, but I rapidly lost interest as soon as I realized it was poorly aping much better dystopian sci-fi authors from a YA perspective. Still, great covers.

I watched the entire series with my nephew and my god Shailene should not be allowed to act in any film or TV series.

I liked Divergent the book. Insurgent was very meh and the last one I spent most of the first half thinking wtf am I reading and then skimming to end.

Luckily for me my BFF took the bullet and read the books. She steered me from reading them and watching the movies.

I use it on my 3DS and Vita to log in to guest wi-fi and agree to their terms. Not being able to do that on the Switch could be an issue; I planned on hitting Starbucks and playing a little Splatoon or Mario Kart on my lunch breaks. Hopefully they’ll get some sort of rudimentary web browser up soon.

Ha. IMO, common practices are worth talking about and examining. Also why I covered the restarting for shinies in Pokemon.

Korea has weird standards for celebrities.

It applies to everyone famous in Korea.

Your point of view is the most common but also so very wrong.

I’d advise people with an S6 to wait for user feedback on the phone’s stability before they upgrade.

I don’t see him as a legitimate President either. Thank you Rep. Lewis for your continued bravery.

That doesn’t describe the story at all. The story is undeniably true: the dossier exists, and contains the claims BuzzFeed attributes to it, and has been circulating within high levels of the federal government. That’s all true. Nobody is disputing any of it.

Yeah, that’s a huge red flag. He’s smart to have seen the signs.

Agreed. There are red flags and then there are dealbreakers. For me, the dealbreakers are things like out the gate saying something racist, misogynistic, or homophobic. Saying all the dudes on the app “look gay” would seal the deal for me. He at least was nice enough to not ghost her, but it was pretty obvious he

This is actually something happening over the last decade with Black Cherokee. In the 1800's, freedmen and runaway slaves were accepted into several Cherokeee tribes. However, because white folks kept the rolls, any one who was of part African descent was considered black, anyone not black but of any Cherokee descent

A family friend hired a private investigator as a long shot to prove American Indian heritage as part of an adoption process and was completely shocked that they actually found it. Her great great grandmother was Souix. She also had taken a DNA test that showed no Indian heritage. Genetics are weird.
