I totally forgive Mitt Romney
andeliaworld:
He wrote about how he had to “apologize” for “several” of his classmates and himself finding a man in highschool, a Mr. Lauber, and holding him down and cutting his bleached blonde hair off. It wasn’t because of Mr. Lauber’s perceived homosexuality, no! It was just a few highschool “pranks and hijinks” that went too far. And you know how Jesus felt about long hair.
Oh Mitt Romney!...

Breaking News: Fox News is run by Whack Jobs
I don’t know how Fox News got on my facebook news feed, but I’m repulsed. Oh yes! GO RIGHT AHEAD! Stomp on the rights of those to get married who want to in NC. Way to go, NC, you’ve repulsed me once again. “Breaking News: North Carolina voters approve state constitutional amendment banning gay marriage” go ahead and have a party! YAY, WE’VE SHOWN OUR IGNORANCE...

gondoleia:
Some White Americans use “Chinese food” as an example of Chinese people being unassimilable and not adapting to American culture. (Some White Americans even believe that the popularity of “Chinese food” in the United States shows how Americans accommodate and embrace minority cultures.) The reality is that “Chinese” American food is an example of how Chinese immigrants bend over...

Dear Intro to Sociology Professor -
iliketomeowatstrangers:
I hope you’ve had a pleasant weekend, but there’s some shit we need to hash out.
I’ve sat through your class for four months. In those four months, I’ve been vilified for not agreeing with your overtly leftist beliefs, for supporting the Tea Party, for blaming parents - and not the sociopolitical restraints of our nation’s past - for the way children are today, for being...

So I’m writing this in a bus station.
Today I went to go get my pants hemmed at my friend’s house. She lives in another city nearby where I live. I boarded an express bus to the station of the city she lives in and then when I got there, I waited at the 40. I have only been to my friend’s house twice and I am new in town.
I missed my bus stop. After a while, I became...

someothermonstra asked: I mean... there are different sects that appeared to have flourished in certain parts of the world? and the people that are in those sects tend to reflect that. Like... idk how to explain that. But it's true. Anyway, the fact that your "friend" is white and converted Jewish (as opposed to raised in the culture/tradition) is important? especially since they're using ~my people~...
To the anon
I don’t really know a lot about Judaism, as I am sure you could tell.
I know that my friend is white and that she converted and that was what I spoke about. But I looked at the post and realized my comment was kind of derailing. I took it down and I am sorry that what I said was disrespectful. I didn’t intend it to be, but honestly intent has no meaning on over whether it was.
