@TheGreenCooler Exactly! Who among us has never had an ungenerous thought? They are navigating the best way they know how. And let's not forget, each for their own reasons, they don't know how to communicate well with each other in general and are learning that too in the midst of all the rest.
@tammy_ren@TheGreenCooler So much of all this!! Also, Shane multiple times asks Ilya what is wrong and even suggests therapy for Ilya. Which is hugely emotionally aware of Shane. But he can't fix or help if Ilya won't be honest about what he is feeling.
Nah. I’m a white woman & people talk about the harmful things ww do all the time. As they should. Instead of whining about it I listen & reflect & if it doesn’t apply to me I move on. If it does I think about why & how to do better so it won’t in the future.
Grow the fuck up.
All of this. Good, ol' Southern cooking that is now celebrated and everybody wants to eat developed out of poverty. Also, keep in mind the heavy enslaved African and Indigenous influence on a lot of dishes that have become synonymous with Southern cuisine.
In Appalachia, our cultural foods have evolved in the way that they have because our ancestors were poor and starving. Poor, white southerners ate foods that were cheap and calorically-dense. This is why we now eat biscuits and gravy, grits, and local vegetables cooked in leftover animal fats.
They were lucky to have had things like flour and grease to make gravy. My grandparents regularly only had this to eat, and even then, the food was scarce.
Cuisine that has evolved from poverty is not exclusive to another race or another country. Americans, Europeans, white people in general — have all struggled with poverty, and many of our cultures adapted and survived eating scraps, like these people are doing now. You are not genetically superior because you are blessed with abundant resources. You are lucky to have been born into the abundant wealth that America has today. Using these peoples’ suffering as evidence that Haitian immigrants are an inferior people is mind-blowingly cruel and ignorant.
If you want to look down on Haitian immigrants because people in their homeland are starving, then I guess you should deport all of us in Appalachia and plenty of southerners whose ancestors worked hard but still spent years doing things like this to SURVIVE.
You are the entitled elite that republicans claim to hate so much.
@BryanGlezerson@joshmcgoo Using a 20 yr old study of women, almost all of whom gave birth prior, which is known to make insertion easier/less painful, to dismiss countless women. How you made the leap to other procedures I can't even fathom. And "tolerate" should never be the standard for care. Do better.
If women knew how little the medical field is trained about their bodies- all the poor health stats you see would start making sense. Women are not “difficult” or “challenging” the healthcare system is just largely ignorant and we blame you instead of addressing our ignorance.
“As I remember it, the Civil Rights Movement had no arrests, the Vietnam protests were peaceful, and no bricks were thrown at Stonewall.” That’s how a lot of you sound this week.
@StephDRondeau In some cases, it is weaponized incompetence because they don't want to have to take care of things by themselves. In other cases, it is all about control and is abusive. If he pretends he can't handle it, then she can't leave.
thin people love to post "BMI is bad because it says I'm fat and I'm not fat 😡😡😡" instead of "BMI is bad because it's anti-Black, fatphobic, and created by life insurance companies"
