@squeegeeyourthirdeye Yes, In My Tags I Said I Didn't Think There Wasn't Any White People With Bushy

as a hairdresser who sees very diverse hair on people of all races, it's kind of ignorant to put people in a box by saying that only poc have a certain kind of hair. i've had white women with hair curlier than the poc in my chair before. also "poc" is a very broad term in the grand scheme of things so if you mean black then just say black because i've had every race in my chair and all their hair is not the same. so just saying if you're gonna make a comment about something make sure you're fair

If you bother to read what I say, you’ll see me agree with one of the people that replied to me post when they said white people can have all types of hair. Which is someyhing I would know, coming from a very mixed country.

And if you knew anything about me, you would know I’m mixed race. My mother is black, my father is so white he’s ginger. A have a full brother and a half brother and sister. I have black cousins, white cousins and mixed cousins. I am perfectly aware that people have a wide array of hair types. My hair is pretty much straight and I even have a tiny speck of freckles, but they’re hard to see. My brother’s hair, who is mixed as well, is perfectly curled. His hair curls in little tubes and when he has a full beard it sparkles in the light, because he has natural blond hairs intersected. But his skin tone is darker than mine. I have a cousin, her name is Laura, she’s also mixed and her hair is pretty bushy. And we are not black, per se. But we are poc and we all have different hair and that’s why I say poc instead of black. I’m not going to erase myself and my family just because you believe you know everything because you’re a hairdresser that had black people sitting in your chair. I am perfectly aware all people within an ethnicity can have traits. I lived that reality in my house for 20 years growing up with my brother. So maybe instead of making shitty comments about how biased I am because I want one half of my family to be as represented in the media as the white half is, you can maybe realize you don’t know anything about me and can’t possibly know that when I speak about what I want for me and my family I have two different set of people to care for, people that experience things differently, and I do my best to think of both of them.

tl:dr Yes, I know white people can have different hair types, my dad’s white, I have white friends, I have met white people before. And black people are not the only one who aren’t white and that’s white I say poc instead. See former Grey’s Anatomy star Sanda Oh and her asian self with her curly hair.

You guys remember when I said we were all going to watch The White Princess even though we bitched about it? I was right.

Couldn’t stand that fic?

modern au - Henry x Lizzie

a post on ihpq reminded me of this vine and so

Recipes from Portland's famous but long-closed Rheinlander restaurant. This cookbook was produced in a limited window before Chef Mager's death. All of these fucking slap.

Yes, exactly. There’s no God, you see. Only sheep.

I try not to judge people’ favorite historical figures but I cannot help but side-eye the fuck out of anyone who claims they really like Henry VIII… 

You know, I don’t feel sorry for those people that get their marriage proposals rejected in public. Obviously, they didn’t discuss anything with their partners before that, so it’s their fault really. Who makes that kind of decision like that? It’s not like marriage is serious, am I right? Nooo, let me just propose to this girl in a football field during the finals, because why wouldn’t she be ecstatic??? I’m a catch, bro. This isn’t the 19th century. Talk to your partners, you idiots. 

Roses are red, that much is true, but violets are purple, not fucking blue.

Didn't stop men from complaining about Orange is the New Black...

What I hate about Vikings is the idea that all of Aslaug’s sons, save Ivar (and slightly Ubbe) don’t want to avenge her due to her mistakes as a parent (Not even realizing their mother was physical and emotionally abused, and also very neglected which led to her neglect of them), and yet they’re all in favor of avenging Ragnar. Why? Cause Ragnar was father of the year? It’s not like he didn’t constantly abandon his family and was never content with his share in life. Why does Ragnar deserve to be avenged and Aslaug doesn’t. 

I smell sexism.
