I fell off a walking path into a bunch of massive rocks Wile E Coyote style five minutes into sight seeing with my brother who I hadn’t seen in 10 years. I managed to hobble away with only a grade three sprain and some horrible bruising. It’s healed now but perpetually stiff. My new normal is walking down stairs like a 95 year old.

This sort of discrimination is very real. I work in vocational rehabilitation and I’ve had to have these sort of frank discussions with clients, especially if they aren’t getting interviews when they’re well qualified.

I don’t think that definition is widely accepted. I think most people generally believe racism is characterized by or showing prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized.

If you are white and call yourself white, most people would not consider that a racist statement.

That story made me sick. The criminal justice system in the US is unimaginably cruel and fucked up.

Same. I was very confused they were described as mild and great for eating raw.

This is the most random guide I’ve seen in this community.

What is the reasoning behind this? What is the issue with just checking IDs like they do now?

Never mind the issues with dehydration, I could not be alone with my thoughts for that long.

OP refers to her as “she” in another comment.

This is correct. I’m sure the woman has moved on at this point but she definitely remembers. A simple “sorry, ghosting you wasn’t right” will go a long way.

In my opinion, jade plants sort of look like trees and don’t grow crazy fast. And as a bonus, they are almost impossible to kill.

It’s going to look great. Please keep posting pictures!
