when rich people hear that we want everyone to get equal access to healthcare, they naturally assume that means they’ll have to suffer the way we do, because they know that their extreme wealth depends fundamentally on our poverty

Meritocracy and “sink or swim” are bourgeois horseshit. The world is not a game of musical chairs and, if a good education must be some sort of limited commodity doled out to only select kids, the rich white ones will always win. Private education of any kind of an abomination. Forget trying to make some Ivy League…

What if I told you that the average college athlete is richer and Whiter than your average college student body as a whole? There’s a tendency to look at the big revenue sports as see how many Black people and working class Whites there are, but forget about the lacrosse and golf teams filled with well-off White kids.…

Yeah, it’s definitely not cheap. But worth it, I think, especially if you only go once or twice a year. You have to love any place where the veggie burger is a deep-fried portobello stuffed with cheese. So good. 

Barf. I would eat the dumpster at a Saint Hubert’s over swiss chalet.

I love the beyond meat burger. Also, they have, hands down, the best fast food breakfast of any chain in the country.

I can’t believe you didn’t mention that A&W is the first fast food chain to add a true meatless burger to its menu - one that’s good enough to have actually worried other chains in Canada, and to have made US chains see the possibility of adding one of their own.

Isn’t A&W Canada Root Beer made with cane sugar? Apart from the politics, cane sugar just makes for a better tasting, smoother beverage. 

The only thing I terrorize is the rim

To illustrate that.

White comedian Mitch Hedberg - a receipt is ridiculous if I am buying a donut. I give you money, you give me the donut, there is no reason to bring pen and paper into it.

Black comedian Patrice O’Neal - give me that receipt for a donut. It is a potential alibi when I get picked up for “matching the…

It’s about getting the last word when they been caught in the wrong.

that mac & cheese is literally separate but equal

Wait a second...

In 2006, a domestic terrorist by the name of Anna Ginsberg

Gems to counter the Immigrant with 20¢ Making It Myth? Well, you could start with did Grandma Pennies sons get lynched when they got here or are they alive to help fund her retirement? Did the XYZ business they opened get systematically cited and fined by bureaucratic racism or seized by the government to make way for…

My mom’s cousin’s BK landlord STAYS trying to evict him because his place is rent-controlled (passed down from a great aunt who lived there for like 50 years) and he could get literally ten times as much for it if my cousin left. I have another cousin whose mother died and left her the brownstone she was raised in…

Yet, in every conversation about race and its implications, someone will cite the “My grandfather came here with 10 cents in his pocket and with hard work, he made it!” myth!

Interesting. I’ve never spanked my 4 children but the threat of an ass whipping kinda floated in the ether.

Give me the option between a spanking and no computer for 2 weeks? I’m taking my whooping like a champ and then going on my way. 5 minutes of pain vs 2 weeks of boredom? No contest.

While I generally agree with the article, there has to be the nuclear option for those headstrong children who will not obey anyone. Many times they won’t obey because they have not met that person who is bigger, stronger and much more self assured who MAKES then stop doing whatever undesirable activity they are doing.…
