So my girlfriend and i are both generally interested in politics etc and sometimes ofc race comes up (we are both white). Her old partner was black and she sometimes talks about how her old partner’s friends and family didn’t like her “because she was white” and that she had to learn to be okay with that, and that white people need to learn that “black people have a right to not like them because they are white”
Do you folks have any thoughts on this? It feels weird to me, like no one should not like another person based on their skin color. But also I don’t wanna be the white guy screaming “REVERSE RACISM, WHAT IF THE ROLES WERE REVERSED???” I usually just nod along
I don’t know a soul who’s not been battered
Don’t have a friend who feels at ease
Don’t know a dream that’s not been shattered
Or driven to its knees.
But it’s all right, all right,
We’ve lived so well so long
Still, when I think of the road we’re traveling on,
I wonder what went wrong,
I can’t help it
I wonder what went wrong.
my dog licked my eyeball and now my cornea is scratched. it feels like there’s sand in my eye 24/7 aaarrrrgghhhhhh
My roommate keeps calling my dog, Archie, by the name “Dr. Farci” :angry-hex:
my new rescue pup greets people pretty well, if a bit excited, EXCEPT for one of my roommates, whom he absolutely loves and thinks it’s super fun to jump up on and bites (playfully) her butt/legs to play with her. i feel bad for her cause it’s annoying for her to just walk into the living room, and i’m working on training him to not do that, but it’s kiiiiiinda funny that he ONLY does it to her.
obsessed with dog training. my rescue of about 4 months is super anxious/nervous out in the real world, and i’ve been endlessly consuming books and podcasts about the theory of behavior modification and working with him every day to help him into a more confident and relaxed dog. it’s so gratifying :Care-Comrade: :doggo-matapacos:
drunk and listening to pavement. it’s fun!
