Why are black people seen as scary or a threat to some people?

(I did call my mom and apologize for the theft but she told me she actually bought the one I took for me so…..yeah….I still felt bad. I should've said something but I fell into the lemony minty temptation that is a good lathering soap made by the Amish peoples. I am ashamed.)

The worst thing I’ve done this year was go over my parent’s house and take some scented soap. You see my folks go to visit the Amish people in our state to buy their goods, and they make the best soap. It’s natural, smells fabulous and is very moisturizing. You just can’t get this same quality at the stores.

So that is my shame as a Black person this year….super evil I know….

How should one respond to compliments such as "You are so special" and "I'm lucky to have met you" from a guy?

If I were a dog, I’d be a corgi.

What did I do?!

I’m just sitting here trying to crochet a positive potato doll for my little sister.

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

I don’t see how that’s scary or evil.

Plus, I’m actually quite adorable in real life. I am tan, short, soft and have a baby big cheeked face and fluffy hair. I’m a very cuddly looking person, strangers often come up and try to touch me, much to my dismay. I can’t imagine anyone being scared of me. I mean people have left their babies with me when I worked at the grocery store….. during my break, when that was the last thing I wanted to do. I did not want to spend my break holding stranger’s babies while they went to the restroom but I was a people pleaser back then and had a hard time saying no.
