Me trying to have an "i don't care" mindset but all i do is care

that’s the question isn’t it. what WILL she do? there are no youth clubs for her to attend. food, cinema tickets, any sort of third space activity is all too expensive. their parents are underpaid, saturday jobs don’t exist any more, children have truly been abandoned by the govt

Three consecutive years of racist riots. Three.

[Claudia Webbe @ClaudiaWebbe]

Masked men burned Black families out of their homes in Belfast.

The UK government calls it “civil disorder.”

By “civil disorder” they mean a race pogrom they refuse to name

No amount of propaganda could ever make me hate this city

[Lil Mabele @_plamz]

5 men used all their body weight to restraint one black man. As he was faced down, one continuously pressed his knee on his neck until he stopped breathing.

Happened in Dublin, Ireland. They’re under every post laughing and calling it the Irish George Floyd. Rest in Peace Yves Sakila.

This is the danger of only learning Eurocentric history

[Dr Ruby (she/her) jaboukies everything @PaperWhispers]

For those of us who are Black in the UK, this was absolutely predictable.

This country is a right wing white supremacist nation at heart.

And let me stir the pot, all the three parties with large seat numbers are overtly racist. It is not 1 in 2, it is 75%.

The UK's political culture relies on performative and aggressive stupidity to make sure nothing actually ever changes for the better.

[Philip Proudfoot @PhilipProudfoot]

She isn't saying that though, is she? She's saying a pint AT WORK.

Fucking hell you people.

I don't care what your political Leaning is, If you're out here defending a Politicians right to be paid a £100,000 a year, to get pissed on Subsidised Cocktails before going to Vote against your interests & rights, you are the epitome of a back broken, peasant-brained Serf.

Your hair is suitable for every occasion in its natural state, without manipulation, heat or a hundred curl defining gels. It’s professional, it’s lady-like, it’s worthy of magazines, red carpets, formal settings and everything in between. It’s the hair you were blessed with!

[ꨄ︎ Dr. Princess ꨄ︎ @PinKIYSensei]

I think the unspoken layer here (BW x hair) is that a lot of these conversations are being driven by women who had to arrive at loving their hair, and because of that, they treat that arrival like a moral position instead of a personal journey.

So now there’s a hierarchy.

I just saw a quote that said, “You worry too much for someone who figures it out every time” and I feel like I’m not the only one who needs to hear that.

I just overheard a woman say
"I'm not being mean. I'm just not actively making you comfortable."
... and I'll be using that line forever
