Mother’s Day Sappies

Anyone who knows me knows I am a MAJOR daddy’s girl. I have been told by many a suitor that I talk about my dad way too much for anyone’s taste. I pride myself on looking like him, having the same demeanor, really just anything that is associated with my dad.

Today, however, I will get wine drunk with my sissy, moms, and grandmother. And celebrate everything that is from the maternal side of my family. The Puerto Ricans. Loud. Abrasive. Hoodrich. All the things I sometimes wish I wasn’t but have given me every ounce of strength, determination, and salsa dancing that have made me exactly who I am.

So thanks, moms. I know we don’t always get along. I know I could be less of an ass. I’m sorry. Thanks for being my mom when I just wanted a girlfriend. And a best friend when I was utterly lost. I love you to the moon and back.

Watch These Straight People Answer A Question Gay People Have Been Asked For Years

If every straight person honestly answered this question, we’d wipe out homophobia tomorrow.

i watched this yesterday. it’s a good one.

I’d done that so many times before. I’d done it for years - every time I visited a beach after I fell in love with Paul when I was nineteen, whether we were together or not. But as I wrote his name now, I knew I was doing for the last time. I didn’t want to hurt for him anymore, to wonder whether in leaving him I’d made a mistake, to torment myself with all the ways I’d wronged him. What if I forgave myself? I thought. What if I forgave myself even though I’d done something I shouldn’t have? What if I was a liar and a cheat and there was no excuse for what I’d done other than because it was what I wanted and needed to do? What if I was sorry, but if I could go back in time I wouldn’t do anything differently than I had done? What if I’d actually wanted to fuck every one of those men? What if heroin taught me something? What if yes was the right answer instead of no? What if what made me do all those things everyone thought I shouldn’t have done was what also got me here? What if I was never redeemed? What if I already was?
Really Greyhound?

For LESS than the price of a round trip ticket to CT, I can rent a car FOR A WHOLE DAY and not have to deal with your shit lines, your weird bus drivers, and the overall smell of sketch that is Port Authority.

Black Girl In Suburbia (documentary trailer)

Black Girl In Suburbia is a feature documentary that looks into the experiences of Black girls growing up in predominately white communities. This is a different look into suburbia from the perspective of women of color. This film explores through professional and personal interviews the conflict and issues Black girls have relating to both white and Black communities.

Black Girl In Suburbia intends to spark an open dialogue about race, identity, and perspective among all people, in hopes that these discussions will allow us to reconsider perceptions of ourselves, others and the communities in which we live and share.

Release date 2014
