Children are the most oppressed class of humans and the more marginalizing identities they have, the more expansive that oppression becomes. They aren't even allowed freedom of speech.
Boston is a very racist city but one day y'all, especially the white y'alls that come to this city for a year or a month need to acknowledge that the way visitors and short term transplants specifically talk about racism in Boston erases the Black people of Boston.

No child is "playing trans to be cool" it's not a thing. Trans people including trans kids have a lot more acceptance than they did in the past but they are still bullied and oppressed, most of all by adults who refuse to recognize their autonomy and right to self actualization
Capitalism has ruined humanity, I think, because why does everything people do have to be "for something" that they'll personally recieve? What happened to being a good person for the sake of it and wanting to make the world a better place for the future?

The joke is that it's fucking weird as shit for someone to comment on your body type (objectify you) in random picture as if you're a diversity hire or a character brought onto a TV show for representation. The other joke is that it's hard to forget that experience.

You were allowed to stand in the bathroom for two hours a day? Cause that's the minimum that would be needed to dry anything that wasn't hands under a hand dryer. Not to mention that they only go for what 30 secs at a time? What you're claiming is absolutely absurd & you know it.
Y'all call this a white city. It's not. That's racist too. This is our fucking city *David Ortiz voice* Like y'all don't talk about the how to fix income inequality which is what makes Boston so visibly racist. Y'all deny our culture and our existence. That shit is annoying.
Bro when I say Boston is the wilderness LMAO we got coyotes walking around Mattapan turkeys marauding Roxbury all manner of racoons possum skunks and who knows what else in every other neighborhood and y'all say city kids never see nature...
Y'all do know that even if they "lockdown" Mass and Cass there's still to be thousands of unhoused people suffering from substance abuse disorder in the city, right? Like moving them away from your eyesight doesn't solve the fackin problem.
Everything good about this city comes from the people of color stop pretending you're defending us talking about how racist Boston is. Highlight what we do instead. And not shitty MLK arms monuments either. Talk about our art contributions, our organizing culture, our scholarship
This is a majority minority city. We literally live here every fuckin day. Realistically you came here for two days & felt uncomfortable & anxious probably cause you were in a new place & heard bad things about it likely not because Boston is the most racist place on the planet.
That's why we're defensive. We literally have to deal with racism (regular American racism not special magical racism) and then deal with y'all pretending to give af about the racism we deal with for more than a punchline, when you don't.

Okay lemme be more accurate since hyperbole stumps you; no statistically significant number of children have claimed to be trans to be cool, because being trans is not some new trend, it doesn't make you popular, or give you special positive attention or whatever you're thinking

The Stella McCartney bag is almost 700 dollars more and you can find Coach bags like this one on sale for 200 less than the usual price at the outlet or other stores. So for most people real leather is far more sustainable than inaccessible vegan leather.
Dark skinned girls are more likely to be suspended in school, and subsequently more likely to end up involved in the criminal justice system because of situations at school. But someone called you a banana in 5th grade. I'm sure that was much worse, right? ๐ฅด๐ฅด
If yโall really want to talk about colorism, it goes beyond who got made fun of as a kid. Research shows that colorism affects whether you end up in jail. Folks think this is just about beauty standards and dating preferences.
It has real social consequences.

So you can respond this way because she said what she said, but what if I were to remind you that she was RESPONDING to people who were ALREADY threatening to rape and murder her. Is that not the karma you're talking about?
Like we all know men view women as commodities, don't even need to go into that right now, but what kind of life are you living when everything you do is to feel like you're winning or receiving something materially? Y'all don't have ideologies you believe in no matter what?
I wish weirdos would leave Michelle Wu alone bc I have a lot of valid criticism of her that gets lost in shuffle of stalkers and then liberals act like you shouldn't critique her at all bc fascists are harassing her. And it's like yes they suck but also so does she sometimes
That's the point that I found the most jarring like that's your parent! That relationship should be entirely separate from the other parent. It has nothing to do with them. To never be able ask her father for anything because she wanted cookie crisp at 4 is wild.

She doesnโt even realise that this has permanently affected her relationship with her father because she now feels she can never ask him for anything. Everything has to go through Mom ๐

See I was wondering if that was just me because we didn't have hand dryers in any school I went to. We had paper towel dispensers, which were always totally empty except for maybe between 7am-8am on a Monday morning because that's the only time they refilled them.
Desus & Mero are the best interviewers in late night & Im not saying that because Im Bodegahive, which I am, but bc the level of camaraderie & comfort theyre able to cultivate for their guests is obvious in every interview. You watch ppl visibly relax and open up talking to them.
Okay but they're out here saying she doesn't know how to manage her money and saying this is why reparations won't work, because you're perpetuating misinformation without a clear correction on the thread where the misinformation was propagated.
my apologies, yall. lisa simpson (mother of richard risher who was murdered by LAPD in july of 2016) is the mother struggling to find a home right now. my apologies for the mistake. Im going to keep the tweet up bcus there are ways to help both women in the thread.
And y'all keep saying Black people have no reason to celebrate the death of a British monarch... We weren't even involved in this one and we still caught a stray.

It's honestly comical they did the *exact opposite* of what the voters demonstrably demanded. Like we voted for them to raise taxes and they lowered them LMAO like wow that's bold.

It's reasonable if that's the value of the product & his labor. It's reasonable that he thinks his labor is worth more than the usual price. As a socialist it's strange that you'd want someone to devalue their own labor in the face of petit bourgeois who can afford the upcharge.
One day people are going to recognize that you shouldn't have to go to an exam school to get a good education in Boston and the fact that we continue to operate from the premise of exam schools being elite is why BPS will always suck for students especially students of color.
Particularly, expanding exam school seats (which some school committee members have called for) would likely increase segregation and inequity in our schools, as Hardin Coleman notes in the piece.
I already know that if it was Taylor who big Sean cheated with shea butter twt would be writing paragraphs calling Taylor racist for stealing a black womans bf
BREAKING: Boston City Council passes $3.4 million in grants for BRIC, a controversial police intelligence gathering operation. The 7-5 votes broke along racial lines. All the "yes" votes were white. All the "no" votes were councilors of color. Background:
You know what's wild? Men are so defensive that they don't even understand that this phrase is a chastisement towards *women*, for being delusional and projecting their hopes on to someone who has shown a distinct lack of care for them and their wants and needs.
Have *you* seen Dance Moms? It was constant abuse and overworking that left all those girls in various forms of traumatized and injured for the rest of their lives.
This how Ik yโall donโt dance frโฆ okay? Ever seen dance moms? They were babies. If she gotta push it hard then she gotta push it harder and thatโs my PROFESSIONAL opinion. She be getting stiff and I need her to stay loose and stay full out the whole time.
Tbh that Talib Kweli shit is what convinced me that the misogynoir from conscious rappers wasn't just a product of youthful ignorance & "the times" but a distinct unwillingness to examine how their theory & their personal beliefs & views entwine to create danger for Black women.
If you want to submit to men and live in a way thatโs โfeminineโ by Menโs standards to be lead by men, fed, clothed and housed by men, and presumably in search of menโs love then do that but call that the Masculine centered ideology it is
This reminds of the tweet yesterday where the person was like do y'all have to make all information sharing on this website a gotcha? You would be much better served telling people the basic information about Aaron Swartz then linking more info/suggesting people do research
It's really hard to convince people that grooming and predatory behavior towards minors is as common and as terrible as it is when people say ridiculous shit like this. They are the same fuckin age.
Everyone can agree how unsafe, overcrowded, and underfunded shelters are until it's time to sweep the undesirables off the streets. If folks are choosing to live in tents over shelters maybe we should idk figure out why that is besides the "They want to do drugs!" shit

How CAN you use a hand dryer to dry a patch on jeans, especially if you're claiming no one took their pants off outside of a stall? Your story makes no sense. Imma need you to draw me a diagram or something because are hand dryers not usually placed around chest level?

But why do you assume she's not secure in her image as a woman? Because she's corny? Why can't she be corny and sexy? I know plenty of women who are like that. Y'all want people to act how you imagine but maybe *that* would be fake for her. Maybe she's "doing her" right now.
It's nice to know that they do actually still teach you how to do a hard hitting interview in journalism school, they apparently just don't tell you who to direct it at so you end up making demands at activists with no institutional power rather than at politicians who do.
Tense conversation between an activist and an LA Times reporter about his intent to shut down meetings and delay votes while demanding resignations from LA Council members Kevin de Leon and Gil Cedillo.
โMedia are the scribes of the state,โ Hamid Khan said as he left the room.
Because pop culture likes to pretend Black Bostonians don't even exist they'll never realize that Black Boston has its own Bostonians accent. We be pahking our cahs sometimes, but we usually don't have the lispy shit that Southie and Charlestown accent has.
This is a huge part of it. Even men who don't openly hate women often assume we take no precautions, simply because we tell them the safety measures *they* suggest aren't helpful.

Bรฒnn fรจt lendepandans to our Haitians out there and happy Haitian Independence Day to every goddamn Black person in the diaspora because we all owe our Haitian ancestors our freedom.
I've said it before but I honestly think the actual generational marker is whether "computer class" was a thing when you were in grade school, that is to say there was a point at which computers became so ubiquitous that they just assumed everyone knew how to use them.
My theory that Millennials are more tech savvy than Gen Z remains to be disproven b/c you can look up call logs on your carrier's website lol. And unless he used a burner, he and his residence can be tracked.

It could easily be Nazi propaganda without the replacement because they targeted autistic, neurodivergent, and other disabled folks too. "Asperger" was the name of the Nazi dickhead who classified people by their "functionality" to the Nazis.
I empathize with the sentiment, but some of us are transsexual men, butch lesbians, gnc women, other gender-variant ppl etc. who regularly face punishment for masculine gender expression in a patriarchal society
@Teniola804
It doesn't mean that all men are deadbeat, it means there's no way to know if a person is deadbeat until it happens, so the only way to know for sure you'll never deal with a deadbeat parent is to never have children. Ppl don't wear shirts that say, "I'm gonna abandon my kids."
There were only 4 people in the family who were afro Latine and the main character was not one of them. In fact the main three characters (Abuela, Mirabel, and Bruno) were all indigenous or mestizo which is cool but it's not Black/Afro representation.
All y'all do is speed and double park on Blue Hill Ave anyway lmao gtfo about it not being good for businesses. I want the city to fund a proper study with these businesses, actually ask customers how they got there that day, how they usually get there, etc
Y'all still not getting that we literally are unable to mitigate the risk when the risk is men in general. I should have forgone my job at the mall because a man was harassing me there. I should forego the train cause I almost had to push someone into the track for harassment
I hate that women, & ppl in general, have to act in ways where good risk assessment says they should opt for safety by foregoing some situations/environments. But ive always thought ppl should move in accordance w/the world they live in as opposed to the world that SHOULD exist
@brownandbella
And I explained this to you once already, but I'll do it again:
Statistcally speaking, 4 BW have a baby for the same 1 deadbeat BM, you then come on here and say how you all have a deadbeat BD, but in reality you're all breeding the same 1 deadbeat...
I remember when this man tried to call this account a "single mother" LMAO we are 3 grown women with zero children between us. They don't have any real rebuttals just jabs they assume you should be insulted by.
Adrienne | Creative Consultant and Soap Queen ๐ซง
Lmao thereโs no emotion in any of my tweets. You just see a Black woman and automatically assume her kids donโt have a father but magically think that doesnโt speak to how absent many of you are. And I donโt dig for citations anymore bc half of yโall literally canโt read.
It's amazing that there can be so many cops inside at this hearing, really shows you how valuable they are for public safety. If y'all need so many more cops and you're all overworked why can so many of y'all take several hours out of your day to chill in this hearing.
There's just something about how Erin Murphy speaks that makes me feel like she was the type of teacher to tell all the Black and Latino kids they would never amount to anything
I think Brown is for Asians and non white middle easterners, Latinos who call themselves brown are almost always trying to avoid important racial conversations and they're almost always Black OR White. Indigenous Latinos will usually say they're indigenous.
For non-black folk who self-identify as โbrownโ and insist on the category: whatโs your relationship to Black people who are brown? Whatโs your relationship to non-Black people who are darker than you? What is your relationship to colorism? Just some questions.
Do y'all know that you can have a father and still need a mentor? Not to mention, men literally do this all the time lol. How often do we see mothers coming on here complaining about how their BD left their kid with their girlfriend or wife? It was a whole thing last week on here
