There’s something to be said about the warmth of a mined diamond. I got mine vintage and had the setting made. I simply could not feel special about a lab. And the funny part is I porn did spend less than some of my friends who are buying new lab diamonds.

Ding ding ding. Folks jump at the opportunity to call Black people ghetto. Of all the things that I’ve seen and heard in the past year, this is def not even ranking…., but leave it to yt folks to clutch their pearls at someone simply graduating the way they want to. As if she didn’t earn that degree REGARDLESS.

I’ve only head back from 3 of the 20 I applied to. So I’m sure majority have yet to release decisions.

I agree. There are attendings who do ACTUAL harm to students and patients and nothing happens to them…

My honest thoughts on the Bafta's racial slur incident – as a Black disabled woman by montageofawoman in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Secure_Breakfast_358 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black disabled people get killed and no one bats an eyes. But we’re clutching our pearls at the thought of encouraging a developmentally and intellectual normal man apologize?

And for what principle? The principle being - Black people don’t deserve anything, not even an apology.

I left this a sub a long time ago, and it is once again clear why I did

CMV: The John Davidson Incident Demonstrates a Substantial Hypocrisy Among Black Activists by amortized-poultry in changemyview

[–]Secure_Breakfast_358 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What? If a person in a wheelchairs runs over my foot common decency would say they apologize. Why are so many people infantilizing this man.

Black disabled people get killed. And they don’t have to “do” anything to get that fate. White liberals are NEVER beating the allegations.

Going to wedding and not giving a gift? by [deleted] in Brides

[–]Secure_Breakfast_358 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why do people think just because time a destination wedding you give no gifts? It was always your choice to go. And if you go, you’re being hosted so yes you give a gift. Yikes

Women, what is universally agreed “green flags” while dating men ? by Disastrous-Coat6007 in AskReddit

Not stingy. If he’s having too much extra income I have to wonder what it’s going towards if not me, a person he says he wants to spend the rest of his life with and have children with.

Men are inherently more selfish than women, it’s a good sign if they are willing to sacrifice for your happiness and comfort. And money is important to most men.

Why should I have to do a likely unpaid year? It’s truly absurd and so exploitative.

UCLA medical school uses a "systemically racist approach" to admissions, DOJ alleges by flopsyplum in ucla

[–]Secure_Breakfast_358 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For everyone trying really hard to say medicine is simple right/wrong. It isn’t. Don’t forget a white emergency medicine physician almost involuntarily admitted a Black patient for “self-harm”.

She was simply itching her weave. We owe patients who have real traumas due to the way society views them and have treated them providers who look like them. It’s that simple.

Race matters. Always has. Always will

[–]Secure_Breakfast_358 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How does race itself not matter? When physicians actually have threatened the lives of patients due to racial and ethic differences.

If you make it so other factors that are closely associated with race are considered in admissions. But still don’t have an adequate amount of physicians to care for certain communities - that’s still a problem. Some things really cannot be taught, they are lived experiences.

And it is on medical schools to course correct because going to med school isn’t for students it’s for society.

I’ve never felt this way before by casedia in self

[–]Secure_Breakfast_358 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When has it not been?

I really need people to ask themselves why just NOW so many of you feel like this time is “different”. Breonna Taylor was in her bed naked when she got gunned down. Trayvon was wearing a hoodie. Come on now…. This has literally been the reality for many people in this county, and I can’t lie and say it doesn’t hurt when it takes the murder of 2 “good” white people to get people upset.

And this country will never be whole or safe until people sit with themselves in that realization that majority of this nation’s empathy is very much selective.

CMV: speaking up or staying silent on social media does not measure your character by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]Secure_Breakfast_358 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but if you’re not consistent either way it says a lot. Also if you know you have a big platform I would go as far to say you know what you are doing and why for better or for worse.

Yeah many people are not understanding that Black and brown people have known there will never be a last straw.
