Quote of the Day
"When they confront race and gender stereotypes, black women are standing in a crooked room, and they have to figure out which way is up. Bombarded with warped images of their humanity, some black women tilt and bend themselves to fit the distortion.....It can be hard to stand up straight in a crooked room." Sister Citizen, Melissa V Harris-Perry

What My Kids Say
A few days ago, I told Simon he's not getting a cat, gecko, or sugar glider for Christmas.
This morning he came up to me and asked....
"Can you get me sugar glider cage for Christmas?"
He ain't slick!
Me: "Why do you need that?"
Simon: "I just do."
