An angel told me this post was inevitable (of a fat woman being completely transparent about her midsection) and it was such good news I almost doubted it. Thank God this woman had the nerve to post this art onto Tumblr. You’re beautiful, queen and, you deserve the upmost respect.
Since I did my post explaining that I will almost always respond to asks privately, I have been flooded with messages from friendly people. So I thought this might be worth doing:
Reblog if you respond to messages privately rather than publishing them, and people are welcome to message you without fear of everyone reading their message.
realizing your own potential is so important. everyone in the world can tell you that you’re great but unless you actually believe it and live it it doesn’t even matter and vice versa.
I don’t even want the job anymore. I forgot to mention I would be the token black girl again. Fuck no.
See this☝ is a prime example of one of the reasons why we take our black hair and hairstyles so seriously. We can literally be passed up for jobs or even fired just because of our hair for no other reason that because its different from everyone else’s. Nothing was even wrong or unkempt about her hair smh.
REBLOG THE FUCK OUTTA THIS
Sending you positive vibes for your job search love 💓
Where’s “ People should wear their hair however they want white tumblr now?” Piper? Larry? Where are you?
I just love the idea of calling white people Piper & Larry, and I’m doing it from now on.

Mike Browns Friend Shot By Police On One Year Anniversary Of Death.
The person shot in Ferguson by a police officer after a day of commemorating the first anniversary of Michael Brown’s death has been identified by his father as 18-year-old Tyrone Harris Jr., of St. Louis, who was “real close” to Brown, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
After shooting him they handcuffed him and stood over his body, continuing to aim their guns while a witness recording the incident screamed and begged for them to get him medical attention. The man recording was then arrested for “disobeying police” and staying in the area. Thankfully the ambulance was called and he was rushed to the hospital, put into surgery, and is currently in unstable and critical condition.
The story is that apparently Harris had been tracked throughout the protest in an unmarked vehicle and in plainclothes(meaning not wearing their uniform but simply dressed as normal citizens)as police believed he was “armed.” Officers allege the suspect approached the detectives who were sitting in a van and opened fire with a 9mm gun that had been stolen last year.
Belmar added that 40 and 50 shots were fired in an exchange between the two groups, and the incident he described as “remarkable” lasted around 45 seconds. “They were criminals. They weren’t protesters,” Belmar said of those involved in the shootings. He did not say if there were any casualties from the shooting on West Florissant Avenue. Protesters and members of the media who had gathered in the street took cover or fled when the firing started, The Associated Press reported.
The media and Police are both calling harris the “shooting suspect” but have no evidence to back it up. It’s all simply speculation at this point. Witnesses, including his girlfriend, are saying Harris never shot at police, he was just one of the bystanders trying to flee when the shots first rang out.
Pictures and Videos from that night also show that the original shooter was wearing completely different clothes than Harris and in the video, you can see the unmarked police car drive right past the shooter.
The cops involved in shooting are on paid leave while there’s an investigation.
