for fathers day i thought it would be funny to get my dad something really stupid so i bought him a custom engraved ballpoint pen and for the message i put "happy farters day" and paid for overnight delivery... i just got off the phone bc the engraving company actually called me to confirm my order and make sure it wasn't a typo and i started ugly hyena laughing and the woman on the other end was annoyed i think
Rachel Dolezal has destroyed affirmate action. Now any white kid can check the black box on applications -- they will just say they identify as black. As a progressive liberal, I am very worried about this.

Does living evil walk among us?
Not according to Cole Garza, sheriff of a small Gulf Coast town. He doesn't believe in much of anything since the day his wife was killed.
When the French priest Francois Domaine walks into his life claiming that a recent mass murder was the work of a dark force, Garza doesn't know what to think, let alone believe. He only knows that the mysterious stranger seen around town at the time of the slaughter bears an uncanny resemblance to the priest's claim that living evil moves in our midst. The two men form an uneasy alliance, both determined to find the murderer.
Drawn into the web of mystery is Nadine May, an information genius under contract with clandestine services. Socially awkward but interested in a relationship with the sheriff and fascinated by the shadowy power behind the murders, she agrees to add her unique skills to the pursuit - despite her spiritual skepticism and complete lack of belief in the supernatural.
The trio find themselves on a quest for the truth about good and evil, travelling first to Wales and the scene of another mass-murder, then on to the killing fields of Syria where the stakes rise even higher. Now it's not just innocents in danger; they're forced to fight for their own lives.
What they always thought was true might not be. Cole and Nadine must decide whether Francois is right about the nature of the living horror they pursue. If he is, how do you battle this most evil of creatures? They need to find the right answers, because their own lives, and the potential fate of millions hangs on it.

what's a sensitive way to tell my indian coworker that the food he microwaves is making the whole office smell bad, to the point where several clients have mentioned it
either leave an anonymous note for him or make it some kind of office-wide thing that won't single him out, like everyone in the office is expected to be mindful of their microwave use and smells
One thing I liked about the America was having a thriving downtown area of shops owned by local people and all the men and women who wanted jobs had them. Mothers had part time jobs that were the same hours on the same days of the week (ie, Mon, Tues, Fr from 9-5 or 5 days a week from 9a-1p). The men had full time jobs with medical, dental and vacation benefits. There were plenty of factories and "plants" for people who didn't go to college. A relative of mine worked his whole life in Macy's and retired with a great pension. Can you imagine that nowadays? A man working full time in a department store, getting benefits and a pension and supporting a family?
The place to go with my friends on the weekend was Main Street. We'd go to a movie, eat at the diner, go to Woolworths, walk around meeting other friends, walk down to the bay and back again. We were skinny from all the walking we did. And having friends meant seeing them in person and talking to their actual faces.
Life seems so much bleaker now. It's like Americans are frogs in a pot they don't realize is boiling.. They just let bad stuff happen and do nothing about it, whereas people went out on the streets and protested bad things when I was a kid. They changed things. They got what they wanted. Jobs. Medical care. Decent pay. Decent work hours. No more dumping pollutants in water.
Then it all suddenly stopped.

hey french nona why do people use 'on' instead of 'nous'
on is more colloquial, u only use it in informal conversation
you'll still use nous in writing or more formal speech
idk how that came to be tho

Pratt is currently on the cover of Esquire magazine, in which he openly talked to the magazine's Anna Peele about his love of guns and stance on gun control:
"Pratt talks about his thirty- or forty-gun arsenal. He bought Faris [actress Anna Faris, Pratt's wife] a gun in the event that crazy person comes to their house while he’s in Louisiana and necessitates her 'blowing their f------ brains out.' He tells me to print that, just in case Anna Faris’ and Esquire’s fan demographics overlap.
It’s not all so primal — Pratt believes in firearm regulation, background checks, and preventing guns from falling into the hands of the mentally ill. He explains population control and hunting licenses and tags and the virtues of eating what you kill. It all makes sense, but it also feels kind of like when Dexter explains that he’s a good serial killer because his victims are rapists and murderers. Really, this guy just likes to kill s--t."

Greg (white passing Latinx) is a tattoo artist. Rose Quartz (black) is his deceased wife (died in childbirth). He runs a tattoo shop called Beach City Tattoos. When Rose died her funeral was standing room only because she was meaningful to so many people.
Greg’s tattoos include: a full sleeve dedicated to Rose and to his days as a budding musician (before he got into body art). Steven’s name is over his heart, and his other arm has a sleeve dedicated both to rocks and space. (because he and Rose first bonded over science! specifically science references in Greg’s songs)
Steven (mixed) is too young to get any tattoos (obviously) but already knows he wants to be a tattoo artist like his dad one day. His first tattoo he has planned is a rose quartz gem design over his belly button. (He’s an outie) The shop mascot is Lion, a massive leonberger that usually sleeps all day in the front window. Also is Steven’s service dog for his anxiety.
Connie (desi) is also too young for tattoos (not that her parents would approve) but because of her fencing lessons from Pearl she wants something dedicated to the art on her back one day.
Pearl (Vietnamese) is the piercer at the shop, and teaches fencing in her spare time. (Connie wants to go to the Olympics one day) She only has a rose with a gem texture tattooed on her left shoulder; otherwise she is bare. (She has a orbital in her left ear and a double industrial in her right ear) Was a veteran of Afghanistan so she has PTSD. Is autistic.
Amethyst (Latinx) is the latest apprentice at the shop. She specializes in monsters and realistic portraits; she already has tattoos all over that she had to work off before apprenticing. (She was a runaway that tried to steal from Greg and Rose’s shop but Rose took her in and helped her better herself) Has borderline and depression. Like my sister
Garnet (black) is one of the veteran artists at the shop. Being a regular sized child to two mothers that were also little people made her childhood quite the adventure. (Both Ruby and Sapphire are black; Ruby is a gym teacher and Sapphire teaches english at the local high school. It’s how they met) Has “I am made of love” on her back with a tribute to her moms. Does a lot of quotes and line work.
Jasper (white/black biracial) is a buff lesbian that is into the MMA and boxing circuit. (She’s won a few olympic medals in her day) She has all these symbols of strength (predatory animals, fire, etc) tattooed everywhere, but on the center of her back is a rose, dedicated to the woman that made her rethink what strength really was.
Lapis Lazuli (native/specifically Miwok) is a college student that is an art prodigy. Greg REALLY wants her to apprentice at his shop even though she just turned 18, but knows he can’t push it. Has some musical note tattoos on her biceps done in watercolor ink. Also really good at playing the violin, and tutors Connie to help pay for her bills. (She got full scholarships to the school she attends)
Peridot (iranian) is a muslim woman with a prosthetic leg that has a masters in computer engineering but is currently stuck working at the local Best Buy as she pursues her doctorate. Has a bunch of math and science related tattoos hidden under her clothes. A battered Koran is constantly on the dashboard of her car. Has OCD and anxiety like me
Lars is also a piercer, Sadie is an artist, anyone else I should add? What are your thoughts?

i was on board til pearl and then it went sharply downhill
I don't think I'm capable of falling in love with anyone?
I'm just not attracted to people. It sounds melodramatic, but I can honestly say, I've never 'liked' anyone for lack of a better term. I've had several relationships, and found myself unable to have those supposed 'warm fuzzy feelings' for the other person, and I didn't even care when the relationship ended.
The truth is I don't want to be this way, I just don't understand why I can't be like everyone else. And my lack of ability to just be normal in a relationship scares me, I don't understand why I can't get attached, be attracted to, and care for another person.
Is this normal ? Is anyone else like this? What do I even DO ?

s/o to my gf for telling her mom to stop picking at me all the time. she is a babe.
I mean, I know it's WRONG of her, but I wanna know what her Mother's intentions were for outing her race.
As somebody of mixed heritage myself, I've been exposed to some shit from people in my family who DON'T have such an open mind. I've had my Black heritage sort of relegated to a "Tan" and had people say "I'd just tell people I was Italian if I were you (that's my other half)". There's also Jewish in my (adoptive) Family's background, and the Ex-Husband of one of my Nieces forbids their (TEENAGE) Sons from telling people that they're "fucking Jews".
So yeah....why people should go in on this Idiot for lying about who she is, I just get this feeling Homegirl's Mother is more bothered by people thinking she has a Black child, more so than her daughter appropriating Blackness in one of the most historical Black organizations in the country.
This Woman's Mother may very well just care that the truth be revealed...but I don't buy it. It's either she's Racist and doesn't want people to think she's down with interracial relationships, or they had a falling out and she's trying to take her down.
This doesn't justify her idiocy, but I'm all for the intentions of the whistle blowers, because if they're White it's usually just as shady as the shit they're blowing the whistles on, or they didn't get their proper cut.

A note for those going to watch Inside Out,
emotions are not voices in your head, not everyone has DID, If you truly have other voices chatting in your mind please converse with them and then look for therapist help on figuring out what is causing it whether DID or other things.
Inside out’s advertising implies that emotions have entire personalities all their own, but they do not, emotions are just that, pure happiness, sadness, mixed feelings, chemical reactions in the brain. Please do not watch the movie and start claiming knowledge about DID or other mental issues if you do not truly know them.
I’m also worried this is going to feed into the misconceptions of mood disorders as well. Like everything can be immediately, magically fixed with enough love and support.
I mean, it helps, it helps a lot, but.. that’s ultimately not how it works.
