CAN’T WE ALL JUST AGREE ON “HOT”???
Yes. But too young, they need to ripen a bit.
sdotmarymartha replied to your post: Isn’t it revealing that none of us (including me!)…
Yes. Though there is an element to the way the story is set up- framing it as the black son vs the not black son. You know?
I agree, but I think that’s probably just lazy journalism more interested in framing a story than telling one. But I do think it’s a useful reminder that many of our...
Isn’t it revealing that none of us (including me!) is tempted to call James a “dark-skinned white guy”?
thedjf replied to your photo: Twins! The two teenage boys sitting on the sofa…
But the “white” one doesn’t look white to me. He just looks like a light skinned black guy.
“It is interesting that it was the white twin, Daniel, and not the black twin who was on the receiving end of racism – but, though it’s counter-intuitive, Alyson agrees that it betrayed very deep-seated...

Hey! Remember how much fun all that casual (and often extremely overt!) racism was in the last presidential election?
FoxNews is way ahead of you. Don’t miss the absurd comparison of racism to global warming at the beginning! Here’s a hint, neither one really exists, of course.

Cocaine-related emergency-room admissions, overdoses and requests for rehab have declined since the economy started its 2008 decline, according to data obtained by The Post. “It is sort of on a slight but steady downward trend,” said Dr. Stephen Ross, director of NYU’s Langone Center of Excellence on Addiction. “I treat patients in private practice.
