Good Ones Go

They want the white woman to be innocent so bad. Because we as a society have been trained to protect white women thanks to white supremacy. So that’s why they keep asking. “But white womanhood is still good and pure, yes?”

At least she is aware of it.

And probably catches a lot of hate for it

God don’t like ugly

Why does this not have more publicity. This needs it!

I want a reality tv show where politicians have to live in poverty for a month. They have to live in Government housing, shop with food stamps, and get only a limited amount of money for clothes. Because here, they still have all their trappings, lilke nice cars and thousand dollar suits. I want them in Walmart jeans trying to determine if they can afford a carton of milk. 

Give them a full calendar year. I want to see them confident in January, and sometime around June choking back tears at the Safeway because they are tired, so tired, of eating 25 cent cup noodles, eyeing other peoples’ full grocery carts with a dull bewilderment. Let me see them despair because they have a persistent nagging cough that won’t go away and might be turning into pneumonia but the minute clinic is $60, which might as well be as six million dollars, either way they ain’t got it to spare - and that doesn’t count the cost of prescriptions. Let me hear them tell people about the muscle cramps they get at night due to eating non-nutritious garbage for months, the weakness from persistent hunger.  Let them know the shame and frustration of only owning one pair of cheap polyester pants for work and one pair of thrift-store jeans, and both persistently have ripped crotches and seams coming undone, no matter how many times they get sewn back up. Let the women know the particular sort of despair that comes once a month when you can’t afford even the cheapest pads or tampons. Let them understand the frustration of being charged a $35 fee for a $2 overdraft. Let them watch as the bank holds charges from different days in “pending” till they all come through on the same day, and the bank charges them four times for a single overdraft because “the charges all cleared at the same time”.  I want them to know the particular pain of having to decide between food for the week, or transportation costs to and from work. You can’t have both. Choose wisely. You do not truly understand poverty until you’ve lived it and a month isn’t enough to encompass it. Not even close.

the moment I feel ignored or unimportant is the moment I emotionally check out

Why is this so true

Been saying this ever since Teen Mom started.

Since “Juno” was a hit.

It’s like they treat white teen pregnancies as accidents due to innocence and Black and Latina teen pregnancies as inevitable confirmation of their hypersexualised views of POC and Black Girls.

I mean pregnancy in general. Just look at 19 Kids and counting. White women has too many kids and she gets a show and her kids get spin off shows. If she had been a WOC she would be ridiculed and seen as a problem…

Dolphins are too good for this world 😭😭
