too much milk? eggs not beaten to the right density or firmness? too much baking soda? not ENOUGH baking soda?
GG you lose
Who you calling casper, cracker?
My white ancestors were poor potato eaters from across the pond, who got the black treatment up until 40 years or so ago. White guilt is as situational as white privilege.
am i like forty years late to this discussion

I had a friend who needed one arbitrary freshman level gen ed class to graduate but in conflicted with her senior seminar. This was her last semester. She would've had to wait to graduate a semester to take some bullshit like Philosophy I or something.
The school told her there was nothing they could do. She met with deans, dept heads and faculty and they all said there was nothing she could do. Independent study was out of the question and so was a substituting class. She was crying and on the phone with every person in the school pretty much every day. Her parents came and had a formal meeting with the dean. They said they couldn't help.
Two months later, right before classes started, they sent her a nonchalant email saying that a substitute class from a list would be fine and not to worry.
They just wanted to make her pay.

And Will was all "aw hell naaaaaaaw".
Me, nor any of my ancestors ever directly owned a slave or subjugated anyone, as far as back as we can trace.
So I'm good.
I've asked some Jewish friends to tell me where the gold's hidden. I forget if I asked Pony.

when looking at "cooking tips" and stuff in recipe books do you do the thing where you wonder how said tip works, or if it actually does?
i am trying to think of specifics, but all i am remembering right now is a coffee thing that was all "don't stir it with a metal spoon because it will reduce the temperature too much and it wont extract as well"
and i was all
huh...i don't know if anyone has tested this to see how the thermokinetics of this bear out
in seriousness though, what is white guilt?
Is there a difference between white guilt and real racial awareness?
I mean, listen, I know I'm almost a self-parody sometimes with how self-hating I come off, and of course some of that is played up for effect on the internet
and believe me I am under no illusions that I am a super-white motherfucker. Like paper.
But I've also been told by a fair number of PoC that they feel a lot more comfortable talking about race with me than with other white folks, and they're glad they can vent to me without me getting offended
Like I think a lot of more moderate white people have a different impression of what "black people really think" -- i.e. that black folks really don't make such a big deal about all this stuff, it's just self-hating whites that do.
But frankly I don't think there are any whites out there, however progressive or self-hating, who can fully sympathize with the sentiments of a lot of people of color, no matter how hard you try. It's always been my experience that most people of color have some really deep and powerful reservoirs of anger towards the discrimination they experience and towards white people generally.
but, as a white guy, of course I'm not comfortable speaking for people of color or anything. Just in my experience, most people of color I've known have held many opinions that would be considered "extreme" or "irrational" by most whites.
Like if I said "all convictions of people of color are racially motivated," comments like that tend to get received with very little skepticism among non-white people. Partly I think because of context, and people get I'm not saying "no PoC has ever been guilty of a crime" or something like that, but also I think because views really do differ.
Who you calling bubba, gringo?
Also bear in mind that done properly everyone is drunk by the beginning of the first speech.
In terms of complication it has nothing on formal banquet dining, though.
Irish were pretty notoriously racists against blacks in ye olde days.
Who you calling gringo, blondie?

i think as american white men stand, i am relatively blameless for indulging in the lap of luxury
Gee the white people who were considered on par with blacks took that out on the people they could get away with... I wonder why they would do that.

well i mean if i was closer i would be in
i would put up the vegetariainism for a bit to witness the ludicrousness of this
it really bothers me when people say balsamic reduction
reductions involve scary bases or palladium catalysts
I saw something once saying not to stir yeast with a metal spoon because it'll mess with it.
I wondered if it actually does, but I have a bamboo spoon anyway so I just used that.
I will say that given the low heat capacity of metal I doubt that spoon is capable of doing much to the temperature. It might cause it to drop faster but I doubt it would drop further.
BACK OF THE BUS YOU GOD DAMN MONGREL
and I managed to drag my ass onto campus
and then I threw up everywhere
so I wasted all the time and energy getting there
Of course my throwing up could have been because of the panic attack but who knows
Two wongs don't make it white Preach.
well i think that one is more of a semantics game but at least i know i am not alone
We're off scott free. Fuck, France was a safe-haven around then to the extent it allowed interracial marriage.
There were probably slave owners on my father's side, oddly enough, him being black and all. But there was some white in his family, too, so at least the slaver was friendly.
also i think i meant to type "faster" but even still i'm not sure if it would change whatever the "ideal temperature for extraction" is
how do they know what it is
do they just say that?
Well my grandfather was a horrific racist. To the extent I learned a lot of racial slurs at the ripe old age of 8. Honestly I thought the N word was what you normally called black people until I was 27.
