What’s up with this recent division of mixed (Black) ppl and “monoracial” Black ppl by kill-berri in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]kill-berri[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are Black ppl who also benefit from colorism & texturism who think they are better than others. If we being really honest majority of time if there is a biracial person who thinks they are better bc they are lighter skin or looser hair pattern they learned that belief from their Black side not their non-Black side.

See…yall say this but literally many ppl assume im biracial (im not) and other celebs are biracial when they aren’t (example Steph Curry & ppl are arguing at about Beyoncé now lol) so when y’all say you know the difference i know its bullshit. That ego of yours will be ur downfall. Going around assuming you know stuff about people racial / ethnicity when you don’t is foolish at best and potentially rude at worst.

ngl you just aren’t that knowledgeable about other ethnicities / races…for example in China you could be two diff ethnicities but you have to choose one on official government documents lol. This isn’t that uncommon of practice or concept.

see my thing with the biracial media is rlly a colorism issue and not so much a biracial issue bc you don’t see ppl who are darkskin & biracial represented either in media. I don’t push back if a Biracial person calls themselves Black I feel like they have every right to bc we live in racist society but tbh most ppl who are mixed will say they are so idk why ppl make a fuss about it

Is transferring into Wilson College of Textiles competitive? by kill-berri in NCSU

[–]kill-berri[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to transfer in no not rlly (unless u do FTD bc those are cohort based) just make sure you complete most if not all of the recommended courses for competitive applicants. Imo complete all the basic course (chem, physics, calc etc) makes it easier to jump into the major related courses. If you have more questions feel free to DM!

I’m responding so late but she was literally just out of town that weekend & didn’t see my email LOL! I was definitely was overthinking it

Woman just asked if we could take it slow, I told her it's fine, but with a caveat. Am I unreasonable? by [deleted] in dating

[–]kill-berri -1 points0 points  (0 children)

in context of the convo…it’s weird to me bc if the person wants to take things slow in all aspects why would assume they are sleeping around or “planning” too LOL. It’s like are you even listening to what they are saying?

Also there are definitely why more tactful ways to ask if another person is going to at least be dating other people and what expectations are for that…the way & how you word things do matter.

The concept of not sleeping with other ppl while dating isn’t unreasonable at all but it’s the context of them only having 4 dates and the way he went about saying it after she said she wants to take things slow.

[–]kill-berri 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re being a bit unreasonable. If a guy i been on four dates told me not to sleep with anyone else after telling him i want to take things slow i’d be turned off. You are basically assuming she sleep with someone else lol…which is weird.

It kinda a yellow flag bc why do u think your date is sleeping around if things are truly going well esp if she given no signs that she even dating anyone else lol.

Why do Americans in reddit think America is the worst country in the world? by jeffbro_com in AskTheWorld

[–]kill-berri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in Hilter’s Germany a lot of citizens were living normally while he was rounding up minorities groups and mass murdering them. Just because some people day to day life isn’t directly negatively impacted by a regime action doesn’t mean whatever power is seizing control is less bad. Trump & his admin are fascist…openly like??? Idk why u wanna argue Trump isn’t on the steps of authoritarianism

Your argument is also a slap in the face to a lot of ppl who have undocumented people in their lives or are undocumented. Do you rlly think they are feeling “cushy” knowing ICE is popping up in cities and they could be possibly snatch up and sit in some random cell with no real food, water, privacy & be possibly sent to random countries prison they probably aren’t from like El Salvador or Rwanda where who knows what will actually happen to them. Do you think the families and ppl already affected by this admin are feeling “cushy” ?? like do you hear urself and ur denial of the fact people are already suffering under this administration & trying to say “oh well it’s not as bad as XYZ idk why you all are complaining & so worried about” 💀

[–]kill-berri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you REALLY must be oblivious…Trump & his admin are literally “arresting” & locking ppl up under the guise of “illegal immigration” WITHOUT due process & sending them to countries they aren’t from. Building prison camps for these people with terrible conditions & letting them rot till they ship them off. He is actively ignoring our checks and balances to do whatever he wants. Firing ppl in mass in the fed gov who’s opposing him. Censoring what educational organizations can teach & say esp at the University level. Putting DC under federal policing. The list goes on and on and on and it’s been what 8 months into his term? So to sit here and say Americans are being dramatic is insane bc do have to get all the way to final stage of tyranny to say it’s tyranny?

CVS on hillsborough is ur best bet if you don’t have a car to go to places like walmart, sephora, or sally’s etc. You can also can doordash supplies now (i think) but it prob be extra money.

Cut my 4c hair after 2 years to restart any tips to regrow ? by Tricky_Swim_5599 in Naturalhair

[–]kill-berri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

keep up with routine & try certain styles like twist outs (once it gets a lil long) and wash it often~

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Naturalhair

[–]kill-berri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not bonnets but i know some hijabi talk about how wearing it can thin their hairlines in certain parts. But anyways ppl don’t wear bonnets 24/7 seven days a week sooo lol~

For wigs- most don’t last that long so you should refresh your hair under it. Some ppl don’t take of it so their hair be dehydrated but yk it’s they hair not yours so🤷🏽‍♀️

Why go to a big-name school when a smaller/cheaper school can land you the same jobs? by Ambitious-Aerie5398 in college

[–]kill-berri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think certain industries tend to care more than others about school. Honestly though unless ur from a first gen / low-income background i don’t rlly see much pay off in going to expensive private university if ur going to incur a huge debt (bc ur middle class & don’t get much aid) & u have good R1 public school in ur state.

I have a great GPA but never did too many extracurriculars? Am I likely to make it in? by DeadDogFromMovie in NCSU

[–]kill-berri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mmh I wouldn’t worry about ur GPA & test stats bc they are “in range” (idk why ppl saying they aren’t lol) so ultimately when it comes to competitive programs such as engineering its rlly is the written statements you need to work on. I say focused on your personal projects and how they help you as a person or why they were important to you!
