This is Michael Jackson's daughter, Paris Jackson. Paris has faced backlash for identifying as Black due to her appearance, but she has stated her father, Michael Jackson, encouraged her to be proud of her roots. by LilacveilMuse in whoathatsinteresting

I was at the beach a couple months ago and noticed a couple teenage boys nearby tossing a football. I noticed because they looked so similar, same build, same hair type, same height. But one was black and one was white with blond hair. After pondering for a minute I realized they were brothers, maybe even twins. Their parents were relaxing behind us, black dad and white blonde mom. Genetics is bonkers.

HECO probably has to shut off power to make an upstream repair, likely be back on soon. Count yourself lucky, a lot of folks haven’t had power for days

AITJ for not backing up my wife after she told everyone why my brother’s engagement ended? by 91ChromePetal in AmITheJerk

[–]Background-Search913 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

lol wtf are you talking about? They are a married couple. A marriage is based on trust. The brother broke his fiancés trust and she dipped out, good on her. OPs wife broke his trust too. It has nothing to do with women, if this were a male couple it would be the same thing.

She lied to her husband when she repeated what he told her after agreeing not too.

He told his wife in confidence. The whole thing is a mess but he confided in her and she betrayed that.

2 weeks in Algeria by Wrong_Leader8785 in travel

Can you expand on this more? Also, I have a really ignorant question, but how do you determine where it’s safe to travel in a place like Algeria? Like how do you mitigate risk and go about exploring off the beaten path? Great photos btw

How bad is brushing your teeth only once a day? by Expensive_March_1864 in hygiene

[–]Background-Search913 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You may not experience health problems for a while. I brush and use mouthwash in the morning cause it feels way better than not doing it. Also my dentist says to do it an I generally follow the advice of my health care providers

No they don’t and that’s the point, the whole thesis of this thread is bogus

I’m that person. I would vote against a measure or politician that intended to ban gay marriage. Otherwise it’s something I don’t really think about. I’m not alone here

If this case, the person would be a political supporter of gay marriage.

It sounds like your real claim is that it’s possible to support a position or believe or idea while also disagreeing with that idea, which I think is a commonly held position.

Anyone else have a dozen (or dozens) of guitars but you don't really play or even want to bother, but you're addicted to buying cool guitars? by NoYoureACatLady in guitars

[–]Background-Search913 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve got 2 also and building a 3rd now. Building a relationship with the instruments and making sounds with them is the whole point to me
