This grown man told my 9yo child the hair growing out of her head looked messy and like a weird mushroom. She asked me in her little voice if itβs true and instead of wearing it out today, she put it in ponytail. Now, I have to fight this mfker. π€¬
This woman just loudly asked the nail tech, who was born and raised here, how she likes life in the states. When the tech looked puzzled, she said it slower and louder. Before I could speak, another customer said, βLady, sheβs literally American, pls be quiet.β

I'm gonna need the national media to stop doing 'people don't want to work' stories and do more 'company got PPP money, gave it to shareholders, to officers as bonuses and still cut workers' jobs' stories.
My child broke her arm, had surgery. I've had two other parents tell me not to let her 'milk it' for attention. She broke both bones in her left forearm & is in steady pain. I'm supposed to help her out, I'm her mother. Why do people hate care, kindness for kids so much? WTF?
You were fine with them watching a child be sexually assaulted, impregnated, beaten and verbally abused, but her growing up to find safety and love with a woman is part of a narrative that you donβt want your daughters to see? Just shut your stupid, misogynistic mouth, Boosie.
My neighbor works 12hr shifts at hospital. She just got home from work, was sitting in her car a few minutes. Her husband called downstairs to ask when she was coming inside because the kids are hungry. My good sis told that man to feed them, hung up and continued decompressing.
My work BFF died early this morning. Like many BW I know, she worked her ass off to raise kids. She was always working. With grown kids, she finally slowed down, took some time & found love again. Breast cancer took her as she was starting her best life. I'm so sad and angry.
Is it hoarding when rich people do it? What happened to all that unhelpful 'save 3-6 months worth of bills,' advice? What you're really saying is this economy doesn't work if we're not overspending and in debt to our ears.π€¨
Americans are slashing their spending, hoarding cash and shrinking their credit card debt as they fear their jobs could disappear during the coronavirus pandemic. But a so-called V-shaped recovery can't happen if consumers are sitting on the sidelines.
Wow...this really blew up. I don't have anything to sell-no cool lights or octopus plushies, but you can contribute to 9yos ice cream fund at $WriterMDCanty. We get ice cream once a week or so and talk about our week, how we're feeling. I'm going to take her when I get off.
Damn, this blew up! I don't have anything to promote but I urge you to support your local news orgs by subscribing to their sites, using their links when you share news and signing up for their news alerts. Also, don't be a dick to service workers.
A former Tennessee Titans scout is accused of poisoning and killing his pregnant girlfriend. Jade Benning, 25, died on her birthday days after her unborn baby. "...you did this to do something to the baby,' Benning said to Blaise Taylor before she died, according to testimony.

Iβm trying to reinforce to his daughter and mine that theyβre beautiful with hair that literally grows from their heads and he pulls this mess. He says little comments that make me cringe, but he crossed the line.
The waitress said my daughterβs natural hair is so gorgeous, then added, βI donβt know how you even take care of that. I can barely handle this,β and flipped her ponytail. I replied, βI see. It does look a bit thin and dry. Have you tried a leave-in?β She left the table quickly.

What you did was brave and commendable. Using it as dig against women who speak against rape culture, trash behavior from men like the ones you fought off who commit violence against women, not so much. π€·πΎββοΈ

It took authorities less than two weeks to investigate and terminate these officers. This shows what we already know - It can be done, but police choose to not do it.

One of our most underrated living legends imho. Always believable. Always earnest. I ALWAYS connect to her content to the point of forgetting that she's acting. She seems to embody her character. Let's give CCH Pounder ALL of her flowers π π ππΎβπΎ

Girl...it took every once of restraint I had not to go over there with Vaseline on my face, no earrings. I called and talked to him. He said it was a joke. Ha ha ha mfker - I proceeded to curse him out. He agreed to apologize to her.
@OutlawWitch
I'm sitting on my porch on my laptop and noticed she pulled in. I completely understand those few quiet minutes before you go in the house to your other job. Her windows were down, so I heard it go down.
@survivalbymusic
She was quiet and a little pouty afterwards. She kept giving people stink-eye like we did something wrong. Nah, lady, you were out-of-pocket.

A guy argued me down that proper vagina care was to wipe it down with soapy water, washcloth after urinating every time because that's what 'clean' women do. I laughed in pH balance. π€·πΎββοΈ

The salon was relatively quiet when she said it, so it got everyone's attention. The nail tech's mother and grandmother are also born and raised here. I'm assuming the customer asked because nail tech spoke to her mom in another language right before the exchange.
@BooksmartBabe8
We were all looking at her like she was crazy because, what was the reason? If she wanted to make small talk, she couldβve brought up the weather or something. The tech just finished college and is helping her mom at the shop this summer.
@prntgdcolonized
Yup. He admitted on video to facilitating sexual assault on his own child, but heβs super dad in protecting his girls from the scary gay agenda? These men think being misogynistic and enforcing the patriarchy is being a good dad to girls and Iβm tired.
Lord, grant me the audacity of this man who just stopped me during my walk to say heβs seen me exercising & wanted to tell me not to overdo it. βMen like women with some meat on their bones,β he added. Sir, who are you? Donβt you have some business of your own to mind?π€¬

You do know itβs not illegal to complain about your job, even if at work, right? Sounds like the job is, in fact, shitty. Hope she finds something better that pays more.
Watching grown men say they lack empathy, community and common decency for going in 24hrs has been very telling. If you see a woman get hit with a brick and do nothing, youβre a coward and a terrible person.

He should seek therapy, not empathy from strangers on Twitter. Women aren't obligated to offer everyone empathy. He's a grown men who lacks emotional maturity that thinks he's entitled to love w/o much in return, i.e.-conditions. A child is innocent & deserves unconditional love.
When I was 38, I was laid off, had my car repossessed and was evicted. My relationship with the ex was crumbling and we had a 1 1/2yo baby. When I was broke and about to be homeless with a baby, my dad gave us a safe place to live. He didn't charge rent.
My boss specifically said not to do something. I didn't do it. Now, she's insisting she said to do it. I know I'm not crazy, so I checked my meeting notes and I have the receipts. How do I respond to her?
This man invited me for weekend getaway at place w/kitchen, asked me if I wanted to cook. I cook every day, so no, I donβt want to cook on holiday. He said he understood. Pls tell me why same man just asked me what I was cooking because βI thought youβd change your mind.β
The surprise that someone is dating Stephen Miller is fascinating. It's almost as if people haven't seen historical pics of women at lynching, cross-burnings, Nazi rallies, KKK parades, etc. Bigotry isn't limited to men, folks.
Just went through replies to woman who complained about men Instacart shoppers. Men were big mad, tried to make her out as hating gig workers despite her orders being consistently wrong when shopped by men. I feel like this is not isolated problem, has been on the TL before.

Itβs called judging other women because it makes you feel superior, and thatβs just sad. Do you, scroll on by women whoβs behaviors donβt fit in your tight mold of how women should behave.

Itβs okay for women to have sex to entertain him. Itβs not okay for women to love each other and exclude him or other men.
Bethenny Frankel represents specific kind of WW grievance. She & her ilk believe Black women have a place, and itβs beneath them. Anytime a BW rises above their perceived βplace,β the Frankels do everything they can to discredit them under a cloak of niceness. βI love her, butβ¦β
taking it too far and food should be off-limits as punishment. She thinks I'm too permissive because I practice gentle parenting and allow my daughter to express herself fully. The boy is her step-child, so that's a whole different issue.
@jcarole
I think it was the venom that accompanied the 'advice' that really struck me. Who thinks a child in pain, healing for a major injury is trying to get over? She did, however, get ice cream twice in one day, but I did it with no regrets. She is my whole heart.
