I grew up in a family of runners. My dad coached for 50 years, high school boys and girls of every skill level from beginner to national level elites. I personally raced competitively for twenty years (I’m white male, cisgender). And seeing how my fellow runners and athletes have responded to the question of

My Latinx co-worker says white people don’t want to be thought of as white, they want to be considered a neutral. Then he said, what is that stuff to fill in the cracks in the wall? I said, spackle? He said, yeah, like spackle.

The thing I’m most confused about is why these White people get so upset about being called White. Y’all are White. Heidi Klum IS a White woman lol. What is there to be offended by?

Lyrics aside, the singles I’ve heard so far from this album are boring keyboard pop and I’m a Tame Impala fan.

All four of the songs released before the album were so bland and lightweight they didn’t even pass into memory.  I loved each of their albums more than the last, and none more than Currents, but this is a massive fail.

Fruit of the tainted Reagan tree. Besides, who do you think was the CIA chief fucking things up while Carter was in office?

Yes and no. Here is my defense at being fine with ok boomer. The people it ends up referring to are those who tell the younger generation to shutup and listen to them because they are older. Who then get mad that the younger generation dare mock them for that very behavior.

lol, okay, boomer.

Boomers have all the power in this country. There is no reasonable argument comparing the words.

When it’s used as a way to tell an entire class of people that they don’t matter, they can be dismissed without consideration.

For real. What, and people are going to be looking cross-eyed at calendars and clocks and calling them ageist? If you are lucky, you get old. If you’re really lucky, you stay cool when you get old.

This fake “woke” shit is starting to get on my last nerve. Boomer describes a group of people born during the baby boom following WWII. If you were born between 1946 and 1964, you’re a fucking boomer.

To be fair I know old white people who are more offended by hearing okay boomer than black people at hearing the n-word.

You mean the way boomers have been doing to others based on age, race, gender, sexual orientation for years?

Anyone who reacts to ‘OK Boomer’ as if it was the word that cannot be said -can- be immediately dismissed without consideration.

And old people don’t ever write off “millennials” and group them all together? 

Good news; she'll remain one of only 100 US Senators and can still massively influence policy even if she loses!

See and this is where it’s wild to me because I’ve had some Warren supporters be absolute ASSHOLES to me and insinuate that I’m wrestling with internalized misogyny - okay wait a minute not some, but damn near all. I see it all over Facebook, all over Twitter, and yet I would happily welcome Warren folks into the

kamala is still a cop. and amy is a trash person and also a cop.

I don’t say political shit on here often, because I’m a middle aged suburban white dude, and nobody needs my opinion, but fuck it.  How does everyone not get it?  You’re not going to out-petty trump.  His followers are people who say “a Swedish teenager made a mean face, better start a tire fire to own the libs.”
