I’m so sick of the “personal responsibility” cop out. Individual humans are terrible at risk assessment. That’s why we need computer modeling and data-driven recommendations from the most knowledgeable people in the field of epidemiology. 

“Latching onto a threat helps assuage the existential crisis of accountability and allows you to ignore the idea that you’re a fraud who doesn’t deserve the good fortune of your cultural space.”

I like this. Going to start using it. 

“Hamilton” is not history, and sanitized media-friendly versions of history are how we got to where we are now in the United States.

I have a great white woman voter story-I May have told this one on Jezebel before so sorry if you’ve heard it.

I, and other Natives call this having to “play Indian.” We are expected to have long braids (um, some tribes used to do that, not all did), show up with fry bread (not a pre-Colombian food and I’m gluten intolerant), talk in broken English, wear moccasins, and cry when you throw your McDonald’s trash out the car window…

Here we go with the Depp apologist brigade again. Every single Jezebel article about Depp. I hope you guys are paid well. 

People are so terrible, and I’m getting so tired of the blatant narcissistic virtue signaling.

I always refuse choices when they are between two dumb AF things. Have some imagination-we can all do better

I think all of you advocating for fines are really underestimating the amount of money that white people will/already to pay to maintain their priviledge. Honestly shaming works better than fines would.

Yeah I’d let that cat get hair all over my sweaters any day. 

I do know some Natives find that phrase demeaning, but I personally find it hilarious (I use humor to deflect the pain) because basically it involves white people exposing their unbelievable ignorance.

What if? The law will do what it has for centuries-figure things out.

I think in 4 weeks we’re going to be lucky if there’s anyone healthy enough to fly the planes or man the gas stations to get you there.

I don’t know...when I think about the recent history of this term and how I think it came about...I find it useful and appropriate. If the term is being weaponized to excuse misogyny then of course that is counterproductive, but I think especially for me as a feminist of color the term speaks to frustrations I have…

File under: OMG White People.

Just FYI everyone she is not the first nor will she be the last white woman to pick up someone else’s baby, play with them for a while, and kick them out of the house when they are done.

If you find that it is so difficult in the first place then don’t fucking do it. This is a human being we are talking about.

Sorry Ashley, but I TL;DR’d the whole looong bit about their stupid ass house because fuck these people. And as for it being “baller”? No. Unless you’re talking white cricket player.
