Jokes about slavery: always appropriate!

Yeah, not getting worked up about the same things! I need to work on my discomfort with not being where the group is that I think I belong to. Being more okay with being different and also being a part of the group. And then yes, there's the different groups we belong to, because I also feel that way sometimes about the black community. Not always in the same way, but more in a "that hasn't been my experience" way. Hence my reluctance to talk about identity politics qualifiers in my intro! Because I always feel like my identity should come with asterisks.

Thank you SO MUCH for this comment!
