Honestly what did I expect from a caption like that

Skin.

Writing with Color has received several asks on this topic.

Everything from “how do I describe my character’s skin tone without being offensive?” and “what’s the problem with comparing my character to chocolate and coffee?”

I’m hoping to address all these and likewise questions in this guide on describing POCs’ skin color, from light, dark and all that’s in between.

The Food Thing: So what’s the big deal?

So exactly what is the problem with comparing a POC’s skin tone to cocoa, coffee, caramel, brown sugar and other sweets and goods? Well, there’s several potential problems you come across when you pull out the old Hershey’s bar comparison for your dark-skinned character, even if offense is not your intention.

What’s the Real Lesson?

Here’s something that happens to ADHD children a lot:  Getting pushed beyond their limits by accident. Here’s how it works and why it’s so bad.

Child says, “I can’t do this.”

Adult (teacher or parent) does not believe it, because Adult has seen Child do things that Adult considers more difficult, and Child is too young to properly articulate why the task is difficult.

Adult decides that the problem is something other than true inability, like laziness, lack of self-confidence, stubbornness, or lack of motivation.

Adult applies motivation in the form of harsher and harsher scoldings and punishments. Child becomes horribly distressed by these punishments. Finally, the negative emotions produce a wave of adrenaline that temporarily repairs the neurotransmitter deficits caused by ADHD, and Child manages to do the task, nearly dropping from relief when it’s finally done.

The lesson Adult takes away is that Child was able to do it all along, the task was quite reasonable, and Child just wasn’t trying hard enough. Now, surely Child has mastered the task and learned the value of simply following instructions the first time.

The lessons Child takes away? Well, it varies, but it might be:

-How to do the task while in a state of extreme panic, which does NOT easily translate into doing the task when calm.

-Using emergency fight-or-flight overdrive to deal with normal daily problems is reasonable and even expected.

-It’s not acceptable to refuse tasks, no matter how difficult or potentially harmful.

-Asking for help does not result in getting useful help.

I’m now in my 30’s, trying to overcome chronic depression, and one major barrier is that, thanks to the constant unreasonable demands placed on me as a child, I never had the chance to develop actual healthy techniques for getting stuff done. At 19, I finally learned to write without panic, but I still need to rely on my adrenaline addiction for simple things like making phone calls, tidying the house, and paying bills. Sometimes, I do mean things to myself to generate the adrenaline rush, because there’s no one else around to punish me.

But hey, at least I didn’t get those terrible drugs, right? That might have had nasty side effects.

wonder who the culprit is

oh my god..a bread boy 

a crime of passion

whoever said scooby doo isn’t intellectual: explain this then

People keep asking who is behind this account, SO. My name is James I am 18 and I live in England. 

*Goes back to drawing board* 

I love tumblr, because I can tell everyone I find him incredibly attractive and it will probably never get back to him.

it got back to me

“find him incredibly attractive”?? bitch where??

This also got back to me

I can also say that he got nice glasses, and that really wont get back because I have maybe 100 followers (most of which are porn blogs)

But it did

I can ask why he looks so sad without it getting back to me.

Depression and crippling self doubt

Your a dedicated dude to get back to everyone even months after the original post

Years, I am 22 now

He’s super cute wtf

Bruh can we get an update? You still sad bro???

I got some help and I am a lot better. Started and finished university with first class honours and have a full time job. Although I just quit it to go travelling for a while. My family also got a dog and she is the love of my life.

Look basically the same though.

isn’t there a goddess out here willing to turn me into medusa so men can’t look at me without immediately suffering the consequences

Stop being lazy and relying on gods. Quick dry cement exists. Be your own Medusa

“If you don’t have any goddess-bestowed cement powers, store bought is fine”

Men still didn’t leave medusa alone even when she was living in a fucking cave so I think store bought is the better way to go

women be downloading pdfs

And men….don’t….?…?

no men can’t read
