“But you survived” I disassociate, like a lot. My heart drops when someone raises their voice. I shut down very easily. And I'm far too observant. I always feel like a burden. I isolate often. But yeah, sure, I guess I survived.
There’s no work/life balance with a 5 day work week and a 2 day weekend. It’s just yet another lie society tells. Our life is work & it frankly makes me sick.
@echotennyson@JillFilipovic Yes, that's true. Used to live in NYC about 20 years ago. Went back for a visit around 2022. Attempted to enter a Grand Central hotel to use the restroom and they had security stationed at the entrance. One of the guards was nice enough to let me in to use the bathroom, though.
Folks say “Racism happened so long ago, yall love to play victim”
Meanwhile Ruby Bridges is 71 years old. We have elders in this country that picked cotton, drank from Black only water fountains & couldn’t go into specific dept stores. But folks want me to not speak on racism 🙄
they are doing to naomi osaka exactly the same thing they did to lewis
except naomi doesn’t “only“ face racism but also blatant misogyny
naomi my goat, keep doing what you’re doing, you are making history and you look great while doing so 🫶
@xotonironixo@Aqierra_Luv The one bad thing I recall is Anita said she convinced Sharon & Tracy to go along w/ Dante's plan to cut Barbara out. But even that was more fear about her prospects than her wishing for things to go badly for Barbara. So they really didn't make good on the "ruthless" statement.
