I really hate this “we won, get over it!” It’s not a football game- this shit is real. We have to face real concerns. The system is set up to allow and encourage dissent and compromise!

The video in this article debunks your comment.

two of the best things I invested in since i started using cast iron: Chainmail scubber and a bottle of flaxseed oil.

If soap damages the seasoning, the seasoning was failing already - probably from cooking too much acidic stuff without building seasoning in between. I do some sauces in my iron too - but I know if I simmer it too long I lose some seasoning and have to build it back up. This is inevitable. This is OK - another…

If you use soap on your cast iron pan, especially after cooking with anything acidic, I will find you and I will take your pan away from you because you don’t deserve it. You spent hours upon hours building the perfect season and you’re just going to slather it with soap? Not on my watch.

Modernism does not equal enlightenment.

lol k bro. have a HAPPY FUCKING day.

you don’t sound nearly as smart as you think you do.

...Or we could alleviate suffering by, you know, working to eliminate or reduce the causes of that suffering rather than relying on pseudo-Buddhist mystical nonsense.

no one is ever truly happy.

yeah i’m kind of awe-struck by the sheer amount and magnitude of awfulness that is happening at one time. like i feel like scientists and scholars and whoever the fuck else will study this period in time (if we make it out alive) and write about it and it will be fascinating and horrible

I have heard multiple analysts on NPR refer to Angela Merkel as the last standing leader of a free democracy and while I think that might be a little alarmist at this point, it also makes me ... alarmed. It’s easy to think that once we got to democracy we were at the pinnacle of political evolution and would stay…

Oh, the “kids’ll get a better world.” Enough of that shit—my parents said that in the 1970s, and their parents said it in the 1940s and 1950s. Granted, I don’t have to get up at the asscrack of dawn to chop cotton, and I can vote (for now!), but I always hated when adults said this as a kid, and as an old, I hate it…

I always wonder about the providence of people who talk about “weak white men.” White men didn’t invent the word triggered, and literally every other group has had the “safe space” demand which can be summed up as “a place white men are not allowed so we can feel safe.”

yeah what the actual fuck is happening? is this the apolcalypse? i don’t understand how all the sudden the bad people are winning, and so handedly.

Me to the world as it takes several giant steps backwards because weak white men are afraid of losing power to women and other minorities.

Actually, it is your (our) job. That sucks to hear and it isn’t what I want to believe either, but there’s a difference between the way things “should be” and the way they actually are. No, as a gay person of color, I don’t want MY life to revolve around teaching straight white folk about racism, but I also know–at…

figure out for themselves what they can do to make the world less racist. It. Is. Not. Our. Job.

This is confusing to me. If I, as a white male, need to be educated on these matters of race and gender, but I can’t ask my minority friends, honestly what do I do?

That person’s reasoning is nonsense. The director made a judgment call. The goal was to be diverse and avoid outdated stereotypes that are offensive today. So they had one character Asian, another black, and another made from male to female and of Celtic origin.
