“I just can’t be terrified all the time”

I totally know this feeling! Under different circumstances, of course, but it does seem like after being pushed so much the panic button gets a little numb. In some ways coming out of the tough times is a lot like waking up a Sleeping Beauty.

I hope you are not offended, but this pic reminded me of a story you told me a long time ago.

Comment on The Myth of White Privilege by BSW

“white privilege”,”diversity” programs and campaigns are all a scam.There is no white privilege,no system of oppression against people of color,etc.The disparities we observe are due to GENES.The reality is that these terms are used to make white people feel guilty and bully them into submission so that the globalist-sponsored ethnic-minority may take their place and usher in the NWO.Only with an emasculated and disempowered majority,supplanted by a coddled and well-funded minority,can this transition take place.

You totally can’t throw yourself in front of a bus. You know how screwed up their schedules are already without that! Plus, I’m rooting for you to finish the 5k.

Thanks for sharing. The thing about DC is, I feel like we are less superficial than LA and less fashion focused than NYC. But people will be shallow-people.
As cliche as the “golden rule” might be, it holds true.

Bitches be crazy.
Maybe that’s the DC cliche?
(with a side of politics, of course)

It’s interesting to me – the thinnest friend I have is filled with the most self-loathing, which she turns outward, instantly noticing the weight of other people first. Sometimes, I think that I could stand to lose some weight. Sometimes, I think that weighing more gives me more gravity on this planet. Sometimes, I think I’m just exactly where I should be. The older I get, the more days I have feeling like I’m exactly where I should be.
Also interestingly, when I was very, very thin (size 2) people still called me fat, just to get under my skin. It’s a word that gets flung around, because people think it’s hurtful. The less hurtful it becomes, the less I think people will be able to wield it. Frankly, I just don’t really find it hurtful now, because I’m perfectly aware that the venom is a product of something deeper.

don’t know how I even got to this blog, but I like it! Thank you.

This post is beautifully written, and really touched me. I will never understand why we, as a society, seem to be so intent on tearing each other down.
With your permission, (and attribution,of course)I would love to use this post with my high school students next year – I think it would be so valuable.
Either way, thank you so much for writing this.
