My kitchen services are often for sale. Unfortunately, Lady Merc owns the rest of my ass, and she’s greedy.

Lady Merc was decidedly anti-pork when we got together. Mostly because she had been forced to watch those propaganda videos that talk about how disgusting pig diets and conditions are.

I’m old, but I heard it enough growing up- across TV and movies- that I had to stop and think a second before I figured out what was wrong with it.

1) I was at a party where the host made chocolate chip cookies with chickpeas and carob, a fact I wasn’t made aware of until I had already bitten into said cookie. I hid the rest in my purse. It’s stuff like this that gives white people a bad name (in addition to who we are and everything we do.) 2) Reading this has…

That depends on if he’s cutting out ALL meat and it’s byproducts, or just trying to cut out all those extra fats. If it’s the latter, a little bit of bullion goes a long way without adding to many undesirable additives.

Exactly. “I liked the way you did it last time better” or what have you usually goes over pretty well. So long as you don’t come off as demanding or ungrateful I don’t see why it’s a problem.

When they ask about something I didnt like, I always turn it to what I liked.

Addendum to the alternate hypothesis: people aren’t willing to call each other out on bad food preparation, which is ultimately a shame.

Regarding your point on white privilege (which is really good and I would subscribe to your newsletter), did you ever read Peggy Macintosh’s original paper (“Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack”)? It’s where the term came from. It’s weird because she uses it almost exclusively to talk about social interactions and…

anyway you can confirm that this fact isn’t true? Please!

I’ve always felt like using “white luxury” to refer to “white privilege”, but I don’t mean luxury as in necessarily being a rich brat, but rather, the luxury of not having to worry about shit that non-white people have to worry about.

conservatives using the term identity politics really drives me nuts, it is literally conservatives complaining about WHAT THEY DO. its 1984 level.

I’m sure I’m gray on here, but—

Make sure the water to dog ratio is correct

ok. i have to think about this rationally before i go off the deep end. maybe they’ll offer it once season one is in the bag...?

it’s talked about on gizmodo but yeah not much if any on this site tho. i don’t watch much t.v. but i have been hearing good things about it. since i keep graveyard shift hours, things that i cannot find on netflix, hulu or amazon kinda of get pushed aside. after you mentioned it, i tried looking it up to see if the…

Same. In spite of myself. Haven’t heard that since I was wee. White kids used to sing it to the black kids in my school all the time.

“since things that are stored electronically are conceivably hackable.”
The risk is much greater that the site you are accessing have crappy security and gets hacked, than that a well written pw manager gets hacked: Local encryption, single or few user system, and most importantly - only one or few peoples passwords is…

My passwords make me seem like I’m some kind of savant who can remember long strings of letter/number/symbol combos. But they’re mostly lyrics to semi-obscure songs with various shortcuts, inflections, and symbol substitutes—like some mundane lyric in a random Lords of Acid B-side (that’s a trick—there are no…

The old white lady on the street playing the game of telephone in her tv interview was perfection, the only thing missing was her saying she heard the Black Jesus thing on a thinly veiled Fox and Friends analog, or Facebook.
