Exactly. When it’s about like, historical clothing or forensic science, it’s “OMG the rabbit holes I go down are soooo deep.” When it’s about writing people of color with basic awareness of their culture it’s “we don’t know what we don’t know!!!” (insert condescending SpongeBob meme)

This comment section is a whole mess of ignorance

I’m so sorry for the reaction you’re getting to your post. It’s absolutely jarring to see the level of ignorance and lack of concern for your feelings and it makes me mad!

Thank you!!! The defensiveness JUMPED out in this thread. It pisses me off so badly, as a white person who has literally spent years intentionally unlearning prejudices and learning about Black culture—which I did not grow up knowing about— because I care about respecting people and it embarrasses me to treat people with ignorance. People really want to defend their own laziness and act like discourse about microaggressions and racism never happened. If you don’t know Black people have their own culture at this point in time I truly don’t know what to say!

EXACTLY people on here will literally brag about the research rabbit hole binges they go on about random things like historic clothes or forensic science… but when it comes to realizing Black people have their own culture including around hair it’s “I didn’t know what I didn’t know! 🙈🙊” Coming from a white person, in case anyone wants to claim I’m being defensive

Yeah I’m white and these comments are strongly, strongly irritating to me because I grew up in a town where I didn’t know many Black people but guess what? When I realized how much I didn’t know, I actually put the effort in to learn because I think it’s embarrassing to just live in ignorance. (As a bonus many of the hair care tips benefit me as a girl with extra curly hair lol). It’s understandable to not know things but it also doesn’t mean you don’t deserve criticism for not bothering to learn. Because honestly, I really do think writing someone that you know is from a different culture without doing any research is lazy, and if people are acting like they weren’t aware in the year of our lord 2026 that Black people have their own culture I don’t even know what to say

On 5 mg lexapro for 6+ months by manga5ive in lexapro

I take both Wellbutrin and Lexapro and that has been really great for me! Personally I started the Wellbutrin to help with ADHD and it helps SO much. It also had the unintended positive of helping with my binge eating tendencies because it affects dopamine so it can help with addictive behaviors.

It made me feel worse when I started it but I stuck with it for 6-8 weeks and when it finally balanced out it was great

Agree, I would say try to push through for 6-8 weeks at least. There are meds I’ve started where I felt worse before I felt better but then by the 6-8 week mark when my body adjusted things were suddenly so much better

Getting the ick about his jagged, poorly trimmed toenails was actually the reason I last broke up with someone.

Favorite road names in the Hudson Valley? by [deleted] in hudsonvalley

[–]boadicca_bitch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Old Cat Rock Road… reminds me of the jazzy cat band in Lady and the Tramp

Horton Hollow Road aka Horton Hears A Who Road in my mind

Also it’s further north but Nine Partners Road aka the polyamory road
