That is the essence of privilege. I will do what I want when I want and do not expect any repercussions from my words or actions.  

Stupid is as stupid does. Over and over again.

Absolutely agree with what you said, but I’m curious: why put an asterisk in “heckin”?

If an African games company made 10 AAA games about various African warriors/heroes and then suddenly made a game with a white protagonist to sell copies/”pander”

As a father of an avid Pokemon Go kid who turned 11 yesterday: You did nothing wrong. If you hadn’t see the kid himself and done what you did, there would have been zero guilt. It’s a low-stakes lesson for a kid to get disappointed. It’s happened to my son countless times on our Pokewalks. But rather than get mad, we…

That’s because military justice actually will throw your ass in jail for making them look bad.  Where cops get a pat on the head and a do-better talk.

Sorry to hear that, and good for you for sticking up for yourself. I used to be a healthcare technician. I remember my instructor admonishing us to NEVER assume familiarity with our patients; she said, “I HATE it when techs call me ‘Judy,’ or worse, ‘Sweetie’ or ‘Hon’! It’s ‘Mrs. Baron’ until I tell you otherwise!”…

The problem is most PCP’s are entirely clueless about diet and health interactions. FFS most registered dieticians are inept and they have one job!

“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.…

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???
