My friends know me *so well.* My cuppeth & spirit runs over. If you’ve spent time with me, you know I have that type of full-throated, head thrown back, mouth wide open laugh. This year, I vow to laugh more, love harder & spend less time on things that get in the way of either
Some of these bourbons I’ve never had — and that’s saying something! Cheers.
Momma, we made it! 😂👊🏽
Leave it to this chick right here. @emarvelous

Love this piece, as always, by @EricaLG. Some thoughts. That anyone wld consider any of our children, no matter their circumstance, irredeemable speaks exactly to why we get such poor results w blk children. None of our children are irredeemable. They don't need to be redeemed
.@KingJames could have opened a charter. He did not. He did not take from the system that serves most kids, but added to it. He remained part of the democratic system of schools and all of their regulations and safeguards, giving lie to the notion that only charters can innovate.
A THIRD of these kids receive special education services -- numbers you will not find at almost no high-performing charters. But also that speaks to how we are using special ed when it comes to black students as proxy for the poor education they have received.

That’s patently false. White students are over represented as well and there’s plenty of conversation about that. Some Asian-Americans have used their mega phones — and I would argue white folks have gladly let them — to tamp down accusations the test is racially biased.
But the extent to which Asian Americans have been the faces of this story is because that is where the most vocal public pushback has come and the very tweet you’re referencing addresses Lieu saying reform efforts are anti-Asian and racist.
It’s been easy, then, for white people who also don’t want changes to the test, who also are overrepresented in a system built to ensure their advantage, to sit behind the scenes and let it seem as if these are just “minority” groups fighting.

What a silly article. Do people who write these anti-reparations articles even bother to read anything that has been written on before? Do they even care that all their supposedly gotcha questions have been asked and answered? Do they know the difference between wealth & income?
Does anyone get editing anymore?
But, it's clearly about clickbait -- hence the: I really stirred up a hornet's nest with this one. Thanks but not thanks.

#Peanuts history.

First appearance: 2 October 1950 (the first strip)
Last appearance: 13 February 2000 (the final strip)

First appearance: 2 October 1950 (the first strip)
Last appearance: 17 April 1995 (by then, a rare appearance)

First appearance: 2 October 1950 (the first strip)
Last appearance: Disputed. Either 15 June 1969, or 9 November 1975 (either way, he'd all but been forgotten)

Male omegas are rare. Rare, and highly sought after.

Jimin is a male omega who takes suppressants on the daily and hides his scent with blockers and beta oils.
It wasn’t until he joined Seoul University and met Min Yoongi did those precautions stop working.

Jimin wouldn’t allow himself to be trapped on his shift for any longer than necessary.

“Go, go,” Taehyung hurried, taking Jimin’s apron to let him slip out from behind the counter more quickly. Jimin decided he could get the grounds out from under his nails at home.
This morning had been absolute hell. Two girls ordered seven drinks, Jimin made them all only for them to say they were supposed to be with almond milk.

‘Oh I’m so sorry,’ was he all he had legally been allowed to say at the time, while his mind had far more colorful ideas.
With Jimin officially clocked out, he slumped on the customer side of the now empty service counter, looking to his friend with tired eyes.

“You wanna grab dinner later?”
“I can’t, remem—?
“Ah, right...”

Jimin’s disappointment vanished as Taehyung suddenly smiled to himself.

Omega Jimin finds a hoodie left in the locker room and couldn't help but take it home because it smelled so good.
The next day, word spread out about how the omega had started smelling like the most popular alpha on campus, alpha Min Yoongi.
