“Because I’m white, you think I’m racist?”

But, but... the economic insecurity made them racists! Not the people they elected who have been fucking them over without lube for the last 40 years!

Now if we can get Stephen A. and Charles Barkley off the air, I can watch highlights and halftime shows not on mute.

Update

Residue will build up over time, and some of the shit running around in coffee can combine with hard water minerals to make a pretty nasty scale.

3 tablespoons Trinidad curry powder (see page 325 in book to make your own)

I’ve definitely seen bolognese recipes w/ milk or cream. It’s specifically the dry mustard that’s throwing me for a loop. [shivers]

Isn’t vermicelli a little thicker than angel hair/capellini? I always think of it as considerably more durable than angel hair (and way more appealing than full-diameter spaghetti).

My long history with weird old recipes and long frustrating career in restaurants leads me to believe this is a recipe from a Greek owned diner or the like.

I’ll say this: We don’t. Because we’ve had the privilege not to understand it. I said tons of shady shit 20 years ago because of how I was raised as a white straight dude. That said— it shouldn’t be excused. It’s not an excuse. There’s no reason that I shouldn’t have learned and gotten better or taken criticism for it.…

One of my favorite things to bring up for anyone who still tries to bring up the economic anxiety that’s surely behind all this. Between the people flying in on private planes, all of the people who had jobs to get fired from, some even walking in with their work badges still on, or owned businesses to (at worst) get…

So if you are white you get fed organic food in prison and can go on vacation to Mexico when charged with a federal crime??

And who TF faces books on their own bookshelves at home???

Regarding the use of “it was just a joke”as a defense:

I’m not at all surprised, and I expect them to succeed. When I was studying evolution in grad school, there was a flurry of new laws across the south that required public high school biology teachers to teach that evolution isn’t real. This is America. This is exactly what we do.

That’s not it at all. The subreddit blew up from a few hundred thousand people to around 9 million in just over a week. Who do you think those 9 million were? Idiots, bandwagon folks, uninformed and clueless stock traders.... newbies to the scene, brought in by all the media attention, who never realized they were far…

Gonna be honest. As a simple and sometimes pathetically empathetic person, I dig what she had to say. Even IF the commenter didn’t deserve to hear that (he did), there are a whooooooooooole lot of other peeps that absolutely need to hear what she had to say.

Some people just legit hate women that much. It seems exhausting, agreed.

The one thing he could have done to avoid all of this is the one thing he absolutely won’t ever do: Sit his ass down somewhere and shut the fuck up. This is the beginning of a long hard fall for him.

Having “zero sympathy” for someone getting harassed just because of how much money they make, is like having “zero sympathy” for a woman being sexually harrassed because of how she dressed.

No one “signs up for” being harrassed.  And victim blaming is disgusting.
