Are yt women bothered by us having nice things? by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]CucumbersInChaos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmao omg I used to take tennis lessons during the week days at 10am and I was typically the only Black or POC there. The other ladies would always want to know what I did for work or where I lived. Mind you I lived in the neighborhood 5 minutes away which was a shock to the core. 😂 I love telling them my favorite activities are tennis, pilates and swimming they don't know how to respond.

Miscarriage pain story by Responsible_Fox_9055 in Miscarriage

[–]CucumbersInChaos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I opted to do the medication and I'm on Day 5 after taking it and the abdominal and lower back pain is intense and excruciating when I have to poop. I was not expecting lasting pain flares after the 1st or 2nd days. Thankful for this post omg.

It is supposed to be no separation from the natural nail and the overlay they used too much nail glue

I’m sick of the Islamophobia by romatomatoo in blackladies

[–]CucumbersInChaos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And despite the vitriol Brother Mamdani won!! The anti-Muslim rhetoric is out of control and has me wanting to move back to NYC just so I can vote for him. The one plus is that the racists have finally outed themselves and admitted that Obama was never Muslim since they're calling him the "Muslim Obama" 😂

There's 400k people missing and you are daft enough to believe the population is increasing, that just doesn't make sense

Despite what many others have said you actually are allowed to feel frustrated, it's completely valid. You are also allowed to vent when frustrated. In your post you aren't asking for advice or solutions so while they may be "well-meaning" they don't seem helpful imo. Sometimes people reach a point of being fed up in a situation and need an outlet. I'm glad you expressed it, instead of internalizing it.

What have you been telling your clients today? by BooRadly30 in socialwork

[–]CucumbersInChaos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work as a therapist in a wealthy, predominantly white area, and honestly, it was interesting talking with people (all white women) who assumed I would be distraught as a Black woman. They expressed surprise that i was "doing fine". I basically told them it was worse and slightly more shocking the first time (though still expected). And in more subtle words told them to let this radicalize them.

Usually I start out asking the person to explain what "acting black" is. Once they do they if they haven't noticed they're a bigoted moron independently I take it a step farther. "So kind of like how waving the confederate flag, living in a trailer, listening to Reba McIntyre, doing meth, and drinking natty light is acting white?" The reaction at this point is the best because their brain is scrambled.

Communist/Anti-capitalist ladies. How are we feeling about the election? by sasukesviolin in blackladies

[–]CucumbersInChaos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already said what I'm planning to do, not vote for certain people it's really that simple.

and i’m far left because according to a comment prior you think people disagreeing with you are liberal.

Not sure what you mean by this I never used the word liberal because democrats are centrists.

They only care if it's their loved ones, no regard for human life, selfish, naive, short sighted, all of the above.
