  • Ok so I did more reading because the wiki alone was already fascinating. I mean the VP to Hoover, seriously really only white men for nearly 100 years, and the assimilation thing seemed weird to me. How is giving up your land and heritage a good thing? Well it wasn’t, at least for his tribe. They almost lost everything even their language.

    Anyway I found this article really fascinating but the end gave me a chuckle

    When asked on the phone how members of the Kaw Nation feel about Curtis today, a representative said it wasn’t her place to say. Then she hung up.

    WaPo Article

    And all this started cuz his grandma was like fuck off don’t come home, go assimilate. She encouraged it and he was even sent to live with his white grandparents as a teenager. Maybe he was an asshole and that was her excuse or she really believed it idk but damn.






  • In my experience if you’re only finding one or two apartments in your price range out of a ton…

    1. You can’t afford to live there. Everything costs more. Sales tax, gas, groceries, water, all entertainment, etc

    2. Those places you can afford probably don’t exist or are cheap for a very good reason (bad area/property)

    I suggest looking around closer to you or where you have a saftey net or support, then look in those areas. Research the city look for lgbtq events or clubs etc. I hope you find your little haven !


  • I’m sorry this is so off topic to the community but this meme reminded me how much I hate that advice. What if I only want sex too?! It didn’t prepare me for ANYTHING. It treats teenagers like one dimensional objects where girls only want romance and commitment and guys only want sex and will behave like a movie villian to get it. When reality doesn’t match it gets all disregarded

    So PSA not good advice
