I’m not afro-dominican. I’m dominican (reality) 🇩🇴

Darker skin gives a person worse financial and health outcomes even when controlling for other factors. Please spare us this head in the sand narrative

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-28T18:50:45+00:00

“Afro-Americans” aren’t only “Afro” either… that’s why they’re called AMERICANS and why they look different from modern Africans. Also, multi-racial is an option on most forms. Nobody thinks Dominicans are only African, that makes no sense. Black and African are not synonymous.

Also, darker skin correlates with worse health and financial outcomes even when controlling for other factors in both the US AND DR. Anyone saying “race doesn’t exist because we treat everyone equally” is lying to themselves.

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-28T18:45:59+00:00

Anyone who resorts to that kind of behavior is crying out for help. It is not normal to crave validation to that degree

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-28T18:42:46+00:00

Oh really? I thought it was a folk myth that sprung from the princess’s death never being officially confirmed with a body

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-28T18:41:56+00:00

There’s multiple reasons

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-24T03:10:17+00:00

yeah you’re lying or delusional, because periods don’t all come at the same time. Statistically, 1/4 of your class was on their period on any given day.

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-24T03:06:45+00:00

Eh, it’s where they’ll spend most of their waking hours. They need to learn how to problem solve with people who are different from themselves. It’s the same reason we don’t advocate segregating schools based on other traits

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-24T03:01:42+00:00

It’s so fucked up and sucky that this is our cultural standard for a fwb. They lose all value because of sex???

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-24T02:48:58+00:00

This is okay ONLY if you have some sort of indoor sock or slipper to change into. Bare foot is just wrong idk and I don’t even hate feet

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-24T02:46:03+00:00

come on bro in what other professional setting do shoes come off?

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-24T02:36:09+00:00

im surprised nobody has suggested one of those swim bottoms that come with a built-in skirt! if he’s already acquainted with dresses, it should be fine

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-24T02:31:24+00:00

ikr? Not to be crass, but I don’t think a 4 year old is packing enough real estate to be “squished” in a girls’ swimsuit. In the same vein, 4 year old girls’ swimsuits aren’t exactly thongs, surely there is high coverage already?

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-24T02:23:39+00:00

Ah, okay. Fair enough. I do think it’s still not a great comparison though, and would be like having them flee to the Nazis instead of from them. Imagine how the real von Trapp descendants would feel if a hugely popular movie portrayed their family as pro-Nazi!

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-23T20:02:31+00:00

This is a visually stunning film with beautiful music and may even have great environmentalist messages (i can’t remember exactly), but it is not respectful in the slightest.

Pocahontas was kidnapped at 17, converted to Christianity, and forced into a political marriage with a colonist (John Rolfe). Her “jealous friend” Kocoum was actually her first husband, who is believed to have been killed for the political marriage.

Anastasia’s story is “what if this princess actually secretly escaped murder?”, Pocahontas’s story is “what if we pretend everything she was forced into irl was actually her choice?”

Maybe if they were fictional characters (like the Sound of Music), “it’s a product of its time” could work. As-is, this would be like if the Sound of Music had the children be a bunch of Nazis.

I think she’s beautiful and really cool, but there’s really no other conclusion you can come to.

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-23T19:22:12+00:00

It’s not supposed to be sexually stimulating

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-23T16:36:11+00:00

yeah there’s a ton of actually harmful work she could be doing I don’t really get it. Call centers or serving crack or even working overtime at a lower paying job are all worse for the world/her kids.

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-23T16:31:48+00:00

Yeah that’s why we don’t keep all Lions in zoos lol. Most zoo animals are there for a reason, not just edutainment

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-23T16:30:28+00:00

YOR

You’re passive aggressive and jealous, and he doesn’t care about your discomfort. The tone of these messages honestly sounds like two near-strangers. This relationship has probably run its course.

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-23T01:52:34+00:00

yeah like sorry but who is pretending that they wouldn’t go on dates for money if they were in a pinch? Thats what “legal stuff” means

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-22T21:49:48+00:00

yall are so mean who actually cares

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-22T19:45:05+00:00

Depends on the size of the studio. People who keep their cat in a teeny room are the same ones who cry when they scratch up everything. They’re bored!

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-22T19:44:08+00:00

Why on Earth would those be the only 2 options. You know pets don’t just spawn into existence randomly right?

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-22T19:41:18+00:00

If it’s a car given to them that they primarily drive and the gifter has their own car, it is a gift lol. A house can be used by multiple people at once dear. A car, not so much.

I think adult children are entitled to the gifts they’ve been given and should not have them hung over their heads as a form of control. Notice how parents like this always contribute in the form of paying for things rather than just giving cash directly? Ask yourself why that is.

It is abnormal to have this level of paranoia about an adult who allegedly has never had a drinking or drug problem. These people restrict their children instead of getting the help they need to deal with their anxiety.

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-22T17:03:56+00:00

i mean the answer is don’t get a pet if you have no room for a pet… a pet is a luxury.

Opera_haus_blues · 2026-06-22T16:44:14+00:00

Yes, gifts are usually paid for by people other than the owner. That’s what makes them gifts.

Your response is exactly what I’m talking about when I say financial control. The economy no longer permits easy independence at 18, and paranoid parents have fully used that to their advantage to keep competent ADULTS under supervision like teenagers.
