Why is Damon advocating for the genocide of white people?

I’m sure it will be challenging for this lady to find other child care, but...her kid is way better off not being at that place.

I so loathe that “this is not who we are” saying.  We are what we do.  If we do a thing, we are it.  If we don’t want to be that thing, we do what it takes to change.  Until we do, that’s exactly who we are.

28 out of 32 NFL coaches are white.  30 out of 32 NFL general managers are white.  30 out of 32 NFL owners are white.  72 percent of NFL players aren’t.  But here’s this song you like, so we’re good, right?  Right?

I saw this item and I thought, “black people will see through this scheme and my white conservative people will treat it as yet another example of woke totalitarianism taking over the country.”  Sure enough....

This was fantastic.  You are the best auntie ever....

Apart from the whole Biden thing, yes, please, do not shut up. Something about what’s happening now feels different. My white peers who don’t believe systemic racism is thing appear to be in the minority for the first time in my lifetime. So please don’t shut up. As tiring as it is, keep speaking up in every way.

I thought I would like being old.  It actually kind of sucks...lol.

I got to lie to myself the first year my Giants won a World Series; I was 40.  The next two were just...bittersweet.  lol

IDK, it’s not like they’re both dead.  We could find a hoop, maybe scare up a ball....

As someone who turned 50 last year, I have been a big fan of watching someone older than me play NBA basketball the past few years (snort). Seriously, enjoy your retirement, Vince. I had stopped watching the NBA for many years and got back into it the night that Klay Thompson scored 37 in the third quarter back in…

Perfect example: I open up my local paper today and find this: a noose was found dangling from a tree at Sonoma Raceway (northern California). This is how the writer summarized the situation: “The knotted rope, a symbol of white supremacy linked to lynchings ***in the South*** after the Civil War...” As if lynchings…

Given what I’ve recently concluded from what I’ve been working through in all this, I’m actually not surprised at all. Meaning, if it was, say, Jeff Foxworthy doing it, it would have been condemned long ago. We white northerners and westerners have a general tendency of pointing at the south as a way of excusing…

That seems to be the size of it.

Yes, they shot the whole state in the foot, no, the heart, with their intentional myopia.  A transition to a non-slave economy was possible.  Would it have been as profitable?  No.  But it would have been a lot better (for them!) than what their stupid revolution got them.

You know what I learned yesterday? Mississippi, one of the poorest, if not the poorest, US states by most measures today, was literally the richest at the beginning of the Civil War. Some did oppose secession and saw the future, to be sure, but they were the minority and the “winners” thought it was better to…

I just got unfriended today on facebook by someone I’ve known for a good 20 years over the Confederate statue issue. Ok, then....

I haven’t eaten this crap in years, because I haven’t had to, and I was like, Uncle Ben and Aunt Jemima in 2020? Those are still things that are happening? But I can just see the marketing yahoos, ala Bill Hicks. “Wait, the black people are still poor and if we have a black face on the package, they will be more…

“Okay y’all, between that and Cream of Wheat, I’m pretty sure breakfast is the most racist meal of the day. We, as a community, may need to look into just pivoting to brunch. “

So here’s a thing I’ve been mentally kicking around for a few years (as an economics major and someone who spent a decade in banking and a decade in mortgages): poorer communities need quality financial institutions because they mostly have pay day loan stores, which are predatory and just make things worse. But banks…
