I didn’t say anything about feeling guilty. Nobody believes that understanding privilege means feeling guilt, except for neck-deep-in-denial bigots like you.

Yes, this is true. I still can’t stomach “If I can’t vote socialist, I may as well elect a literal fascist."
I’m 26, straight, white, male, college-educated and liberal, and I’m terrified of Trump getting elected. I know full well that I’m privileged, but that sure as fuck won’t prevent me from losing my job when Hypothetical President Trump drives the US economy into the ground. And that absolutely is a when, not an if.…
That’s me! I have a BA in computer science from a fancy overpriced private college, and I work as a software engineer. My first job in the field used Java, the same language my college taught in the intro series computer science courses. I’m now doing .Net and a few proprietary languages, none of which I ever touched…
That thing about Swiper has always bothered me. Swiping is his whole identity! How would that asshole feel if someone just started yelling “Dora the Explorer, No Exploring!” every time they saw her?
I would arguess that since he’s clearly trying to incite a violent race war, he does present a clear physical danger to himself and others. That’s a valid argument, right?
Yup. If only there had been a good guy with a gun, this never could have happened.
I don’t get it. Are people who shake hands badly all chauvinists?
Pfffffffffffttt!!!
I can fake it when I have to, for job interviews and such, but for the most part I assume that anyone who bases their first impression of a person on how well they perform an awkward, outdated, useless, and all-together silly little social contact ritual, isn’t someone worth impressing. I mean really, the handshaking…
I’m pretty sure that if ‘fat’ the food component and ‘fat’ the description for an overweight person weren’t the same word, we could have gotten over that bullshit decades ago, and I would never accidentally buy the ‘fat free half-and-half’ at the store because I’m not paying enough attention, and get to work only to…
If they don’t arrest her, then all those “Hillary for PRISONdent” signs will have been for nothing! We can’t have that!
Honestly, Trump wrecking the economy, getting a worldwide trade embargo against the US, and then starting a war with Mexico would be pretty fucking shitty for the straight white Christian males too. I don’t know what the fuck they’re thinking.
Who the fuck decided on ‘security scuffle’ for a headline? That’s not what a fucking ‘scuffle’ looks like. That’s ‘patient’s security assault’ or ‘tsa brutally beats disabled teenager.’
As rough as the tsa is with innocent people sometimes, at least they have their stellar record of...
It’s not even a real sandwich! Anything you put between two slices of bread that doesn’t include meat is a goddamn sham. There is no such thing as a vegitarian sandwich- much like many vegetarians eat soy-based imitation meat, they also eat imitation sandwiches. Furthermore, any sandwich that doesn’t include cheese is…
I found a working xbox 360 in a dumpster after move out day at my college. A friend found a cardboard box containing 34 bottles of decent-quality white wine. It’s truly ridiculous what some people will just throw away.
It would sure be nice though if we could make the shift between “you [hypothetical abuse victim] have to prove beyond a doubt that this person is dangerous and violent, before we’ll refuse to give them a gun” to “you [aspiring gun owner] have to demonstrate that you’re not dangerous and violent before we’ll give you a…
There’s really a lot of that going on in old-timey medicine. Sigmund Frued had a really bad case too. Dude, just because your mom died and your dad married some lady that was only like 2 years older than you and you had a huge fucking crush on her doesn’t mean that all of human behavior is driven by our desire to bang…
