    I'm currently reading a comparison of health systems globally. There are about 4 sentences that really sum it up. 1/4: “The United States is the only developed country that lets insurance companies profit from basic health coverage”

    Y’all use Intersectionality as research parsley. Don’t even know what it means, just throwing it on.

    There’s a very specific reason a lot of Black academics don’t end up together and I promise you’re not ready for the answer…. 🙈

    Also for the record this is less of a commentary on interracial dating and more of a commentary on the Black academic and/or activist to white partner pipeline.

    In my 20s, a Black woman twice my age said to me: “if all of us women actually left when we said we would like you do, men might be forced to get it together.” It’s seared into my memory because I felt bad for her & every one who needs 8-10 tries before actually leaving.

    I’m not over the call for euthanizing and killing the homeless. I’m sorry. It hurts and hit me in a place I cannot describe.
