I'm white, with alot of mixed and black in my family Many of our friends are of one race or another

My parents raised me to not hate anyone, or see them differently Even though I'm white, I get surprised in how pissed I get hearing anyone use the N word, regardless of their race

Totally believable headline imo. Hold friends and family accountant for that shit. We as individuals need to speak out and let our own individual circle of friends know that it's unacceptable to act like this it's unacceptable to even think like that. And if that's what people really want to be about then you need to consider that they might not actually be someone worth having in your life. And yeah that includes grandma and mom and dad and everything.

Not being a dick, but are you white? It's my guess as to why you might not see it. Ass hat whites with closet racism act normal around other white ppl imo, until trump got elected then I saw it being seen as acceptable to act a fucktard out loud instead of internally where it would have hopefully died out over generations.

Try this crazy idea: get in your car and drive. Take back roads through small towns. There are motels everywhere. If you really get stuck, look at Google maps for a major interstate highway junction and go there, there will be motels all around the intersection

Commuting from york to hbg is a terrible idea. 83 is constantly shut down when it snows. The back roads are just as bad half the time. In one snow storm i left work in york at 230 pm. I sat on the high way until 8pm when they closed 83 bc of accidents from trucks trying to get over reesers summit. They didnt reopen 83 until after midnight. I didnt get home until 1230am and i had to be back in york for work at 6.

76 fucking sucks from center city all the way past KOP. This isn’t gonna be feasible for you, sorry. I commuted 85 miles each way to work for 18 months and it was wide open highway between southern NY and Williamsport. I barely made it happen then. You can’t fight traffic for 45 minutes then get on a toll road and drive another hour and 15 (if you go quick) to Harrisburg. 1000 miles a week divided by whatever mpg your car gets. It’s been years since I’ve taken the turnpike between Harrisburg East and KOP but the toll has gotta be at least $15 one way. You might be better off just finding a cheap place in Harrisburg and commuting back to Philly on the weekends?
