My third graders. They are absolutely adorable.

@Kestrel's post represents all of my fears about how people would react if I attempted to place my PB as a PoC.

I don't want that directed at me if I end up playing a steryotype I wasn't aware existed because no one had confronted me on it before. (I was literally 21 before it hit my dumb ass that cotton picking fingers was RACIST AS FUCK and I SHOULD NOT SAY IT.)

@HelloProject said in Diversity Representation in MU*ing:

I can't imagine someone complaining to you that "RPing as a black person is basically blackface" outside of like a random 13 year old on Twitter whose entire understanding of social issues is memes.

While they did not use these words, individuals in this thread have made a very strong insinuations that white people playing PoC is wrong and that they should stay to their own color.

I'm hoping that is not what they meant but that's how it came across to me.

@Ganymede

Ty for the kitties put in appropriate break points. I motion that all posts from now on do this to help us combat compassion fatigue.

@GreenFlashlight

Wait, what?

I wasn't rebutting you. I was stating the academic terms that people use for those beliefs which underpin much of the decision making processes that we as citizens of the United States of America don't think about but that we very much hold to until called on our bias.

On the playground:

"Catch me sugar daddy!"

7-8 year olds playing tag.

(Okay, so I did ask for context. They were calling the tagger daddy (daddy long leg) and 'sweet' for nice.)

@Jeshin

I do agree with this.

@thesuntsar is literally the GREATEST PERSON EVER.

(Also @apos for everything Norwood-secret related that led up to this.)

I could not be happier.

Okay, what is TERF? I kept hoping it would be explained but it wasn't. Also, I am afraid to google it because heaven only knows what I'll find.

I am 30 and it now hurts to sit on the floor for extended periods of time.

@Roz That is 100% what I was worried about, ty.

@Coin

My hubs does the same thing - except with cucumbers. He doesn't even bother to cut them up.

When something off the wall funny happens out of the blue.

Like, I love the deep personal character moments, but if someone can make me laugh?

@RightMeow I am 5'3" and I married a guy 5'4".

We are basically just out of luck in general. One of our first purchases was a folding ladder and step stool. X.x
