I’m going to be honest here. I would not kick her out of bed

Yes, but no, but he took too much.

This right here.

In evolutionary psychology terms, there is nothing more attractive than having a child that is legally guaranteed generational wealth.

I don’t know if you’ve ever met anyone with generational wealth, but after a few generations they become extremely attractive.

I’m not trying to say “won’t someone think of the children” here. I just think that’s worse than a honeypot.

And it certainly doesn’t help that powerful people are waiting for this bubble to pop.

Not an insult. Just a comment.

Still hurts.

The first part is so textbook and academic (albeit undergrad level). The last paragraph is very different in tone.

I woke up this morning having slept on my hand funny. It hurt a lot. Maybe 14 hours later, it still hurts.

I think it might be permanent.

This is reminds me of geek shit, old school,intelligent Internet that I need more of in my life.

I don’t know the context, but, to me, unless gender is relevant or important to the discussion, it doesn’t need to be mentioned.

My interpretation is the same as “I don’t need to know the race of everyone involved.”

Latin.

I don’t have to do the stupid self censoring here, right? The one that’s really easy for the ai mods that they’re trying to outsmart?

I always wonder how these people have enough time to even get accused of all this many accounts.

Lol. This has got to be a troll.

North America has every group that is present in Europe, and plenty that are not at all present in Europe.

Plus wave after wave of European immigrants that settled in geographically diverse areas and interacted differently with the environment and the other people that came there since the beginning of colonialism.

They changed way more than France and Germany (or whatever you think is “diversity”) in the same amount of time. Way more cultural exchange and adaptation.

The Italian Americans that settled in Chicago and New York are very different from each other. The Germans that settled in Chicago and Texas are very different from each other.

We also have groups that you don’t have at all.

First, brown people. You have like 5. That’s the Othello reference. You preferred white people only, so I’ll continue with white people only (which makes me gag).

Mormons. Amish. Mennonites. I dunno, just country bumpkins. Pentecostals. So many.

I’m running out of white people. I just can’t help but think that brown people are really important here.

David Sedaris has an interesting monologue about this.

It’s called 6 to 8 black men. Definitely worth a listen. That one is about the Dutch.

Lol. “Diverse”.

This is kinda excessively insulting and ignorant.

All my ancestors came to the US as poor white trash. The Irish ones were being actively starved.

Switzerland is like 80% ethnic “Swiss” and the rest of it is Italian, French, and German.

Honestly, to an American, European ethnic uniformity is bizarre. You’re so white and seem to think because you have Othello, you’re diverse.

I’ll be the voice of reason.

Did your mom tell you not to spit on people? Or cover your mouth when you coughed or sneezed? Then wash your hands?

I know she did. She raised you right.

Here’s the deal. Vaccines are like covering your mouth when sneezing or washing your hands after going to the bathroom

Sure, hand washing and a few vaccines are a bit inconvenient, but maybe you know why Mom told you that? She saw people die. I also have seen people die of vaccine preventable disease.

I love red slaw. Cabbage, cider vinegar, ketchup, salt, pepper, spicy stuff.

I don’t disagree.

In this context that would be called grilling. BBQ is also a term that is used, but not when you talk about Texas, Kansas, and NC. We have that too. You wouldn’t cook a ribeye this way. It’s just different in this convo.

Fried chicken is also relevant here, and the Korean KFC and KBBQ are foods that deserve lots of respect IMO.

Who am I kidding? I just like good food.

Can you share what neoliberalism or elitist progressivism means to you?

I understand how to parse the words, but it’s just a nonsense label to ideas you don’t like. You also can’t really label any group as both “poor” and “elitist” at the same time.
