So um, let me guess it straight - it is absolutely fine for white people to dress up as Native Americans, Egyptians, Geishas or do Black face for Halloween, but Santa can’t be Black? No, this is not how it works. “But Real Santa is white!” Santa Claus is a fictional character, he DOESN’T even exist! Now do me a favor and sit cho asses down, that grandpa is as adorable as one can be.

Independence and safety (not having to rely on abusive ppl, getting to control how you spend your time and money)

Experiences (travel, events, vacations, entertainment)

Health (medical care duh, good food, good location, reduced stress)

Opportunity (car, being able to move, having a safety net, “looking professional”)

Confidence (clothes that make you look good, things that make you feel good)
