She was ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR CALIFORNIA how the fuck would that insult ever, ever stick? Literally the general of all the lawyers. lmfao
No she didn't.
Elon Musk is what he always was. He wants you to scapegoat his daughter because that's easy for him. He's a piece of shit entirely on his own, don't blame her for his vile nature.
600 miles? Call me when they make one small enough to fit in a car
heyooooo
Starting to think the reason Elon opposes the "woke mind virus" is not because his daughter is trans, but because he keeps getting owned so fucking hard by her
Watermelon and chicken were two of the ways that black people started supporting themselves after being freed from slavery. They were agricultural products they could raise with very little investment and start building wealth from essentially nothing. Racists, not wanting them to prosper, mocked them for their preference for these things, but it's important to note that the mockery didn't stop them from supporting themselves with the foods they were able to produce. To this day black people enjoy these foods, and there's nothing wrong with them enjoying the foods. If you're with your black family, and you want to celebrate your own heritage, this isn't actually a bad way to do it.
However.
When a corporation, particularly a corporation run and staffed by white people, makes a choice to celebrate a significant black cultural date by presenting people with foods that white people used to mock black people, it reads as mockery. (This is especially true in North Carolina, a place where racism is rampant and open.) At best, this is tone deaf; someone along the way should have said "hey, do you think any black people will feel like you're doing this as a racist attack?" And if any one of them had answered "yes" to that question, they wouldn't have done it. It made it through the pipeline to being something they actually did because nobody in the decision chain cares about the racist overtones of what they were doing.
If you're going to do anything to celebrate black history or black culture, failing to ask any black people what they think about it is racism. Cultural sensitivity would have meant getting some input from a few black folks about how they think it should be celebrated--and, had they done that, they would have avoided this mess.
And, just in case anyone was wondering, the VP in charge of this situation is white.
It's true, the fact that we never drew and quartered this guy does seem like a failure of our responsibilities
“Whoever did this does not understand that stealing newspapers doesn’t stop a story,” she told readers in her email.
This story was already lowkey national news but now it's going to go nuclear. Whoever stole the papers, what a complete moron.
This argument did not go well
You can't convince people to do their job with logic when they just don't want to do their job. After minorities, the thing cops hate most is doing their job.
I don't know whether valve has violated anti-trust law or not, and I certainly don't think gaben deserves any more protection from covid than the general public but;
this is a stupid ruling. Why on earth can't he appear remotely, as he requested? They can't "adequately assess his credibility"? Are they gonna have an FBI body language expert on hand? Check his forehead for sweat droplets? There's nothing they can ask him in person that they can't ask him over a camera.
Feels like the plaintiffs are doing some kind of lowkey spite thing here, and I'm surprised the judge played along.
> she continues talking to him anyway because she really only cared that he's white
He finally figured out how to exit
When someone says "He's an unbelievable genius," I now understand that the person speaking is either a con artist or a gullible idiot. Unbelievable geniuses don't exist, there's just specialists, people who get lucky, people who work hard. So if you're saying someone is such a genius, either you have no metric by which to measure genius, or you're selling something.
Cullen is absolutely selling something: he's selling his documentary.
Smells 100% like bullshit. I had no take on this documentary one way or the other before, but now I'm very skeptical.
