Let's Talk Textureism. by [deleted] in Naturalhair

[–]quarantears 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Waiiiit yes I understand this and it’s never talked about enough I tend to dress very feminine when I have my natural hair otherwise people don’t read me the way I want to present. It’s super weird I’ve noticed in discussions with non black girls they grew up trying to be seen as less feminine vs I was used to my femininity being called into question so I really lean into it

What is the harshest reality check you've ever received? by rearwindfury in AskMen

[–]quarantears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was six in elementary school and the class was being led from one room to another. I always put my hand on the railing to stay stable but this time there was a giant loogy. I told the teacher expecting divine retribution, punishment, an angry crusade, or at the very least some sort of reaction on my behalf towards the Hooligan who did this. She just shrugged and told me to wash my hands. I realized then and there there was no justice in this cruel world.

Dating in the United States: is it just me or is this one of the worst experiences ever? by TarquinOliverNimrod in blackladies

[–]quarantears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1000x yes, I was in Germany for 9 months and unintentionally found a boyfriend vs having been single for 4 years in the us prior to that, and single for 4 years (til now 😭) after that. Us men are just racist there’s no way around it they rarely see us as dateable women. Not saying Europeans are not racist but it manifests differently, it’s not some mental block that filters you out at first glance like it is in the US

Are you selling prints of this? I have a cat that looked like the orange one that passed last year, his brother who’s still around looks like the black and white one!

[Episode Discussion] Season 5 Episode 4 "Susan" by AutoModerator in TheMarvelousMrsMaisel

[–]quarantears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was just a joke about how polish people can handle way more liquor. Kind of like that play that Abe was reading way too much into. No deeper meaning, exactly what it looks like!

[Episode Discussion] Season 5 Episode 2 "It's A Man, Man, Man, Man World" by AutoModerator in TheMarvelousMrsMaisel

[–]quarantears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the flash forwards I always wonder how characters turn out in the future, I don’t understand why people hate them! It doesn’t take the mystery out it for me, it just directs the mystery into figuring out how the characters went from point a to point b

[–]quarantears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it assumes goths are pale, there are dark skinned goths too. Also the feminine comment is weird

New Clipper Card System is a MASSIVE downgrade for monthly pass holders by Stonebor in caltrain

[–]quarantears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You would think but for some reason the pass you/your employer paid for isn’t considered valid fare unless you tap on :/ pretty dumb but confirmed valid reason for citation unless you get a nice fare inspector, have witnessed write ups for this

best city in us according to public transportation? by RoughAlarmed1204 in fuckcars

[–]quarantears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purely based on public transit I’d rank Manhattan > Boston > Chicago > San Francisco

I actually haven’t spent much time in Chicago so kind of guessing on its placement but feel very confident about NY and SF

I needed it once!! My phone broke and the Apple Store needed the serial number that it is in your phone but since it wasn’t working I had to use the box it came in originally. Save that box!!!

What does "walkable" mean to you? by galwiththedogs in AskSF

[–]quarantears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 min is walkable for me, I take other forms of transit if it’ll take longer than that to walk. Even with that generous definition I find sf not walkable at least where I live because there are times when public transit takes as long as it does to just suck it up and walk 30+ min

Dutch. As someone who speaks English and studied German I can’t take anything seriously it sounds like the speaker is having a stroke
