White Party - A Lesson in Cultural Appropriation

JustSaying says...

You know what? Indiana Jones is a white man cracking his whip.
He's awesome. I wanna be that guy.
Go ahead, call me 'cracker'!

'Peckerwood'? That's like 'Hardonrockhard'. That's totally me.

'White trash'? That's the white people less awesome than me, Tasty-Jones Rockcock. I take them out and put them in tiny plastic bags.

White Party - A Lesson in Cultural Appropriation

newtboy says...

There is "white trash". When I grew up in Texas, that was an insult considered more derogatory than most racial slurs (by white people, mostly overreacting about being called anything derogatory). I agree, not quite the stinging slur other 'races' contend with, but worse than "cracker" (which, from what I've been told, stems from white cowboys typically cracking whips, so I'm not sure how it's supposed to be derogatory, only that it is intended that way).
There's also 'peckerwood'....but I never could figure out what that's supposed to mean at all, just that it's intended to be insulting.

I love your point, that the only way 'whites' are really superior is in our ability to feel superior to others for no reason. Bravo, sir.

Now, suspending reason in favor of fear and ignorance is not just a white thing, it's a human thing, IMO. We whites may be somewhat more practiced at it, though, at least recently.

JustSaying says...

Now we're arguing semantics. Yummy.

racism:"noun
1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human racial groups determine cultural or individual achievement"

See, the keyword here is achievement. There are no achievements without any form of judgement. Think of it in the most simple terms, X Box or Steam achievements. Let's say you play Call Of Duty 18 and get the "Used a gun!" achievement for firing the very first shot in the game. You got this because the game's code made a judgement. Did the player fire a shot? Yes or no. Sure, it's easy to judge that, the facts are very clear and easy to read. Are you worthy of this achievement? Are you as much worth as I am, the guy who finished the game and got the achievement?
And what about the guy who never got that achievement because he played the entire game only using a knife? Think about it, playing any Call Of Duty single player campaign using only melee weapons and throwing knives. Who's worthy know? Who achieved more?
Achievement depends entirely on the definition and who's making them. The knife guy played the way harder game and got no recognition but the guy who got the "Used A Gun!" and the "1000 Headshots!" achievement is the one bragging online about his achievements and medals next to his name.
Who has achieved more, the ethnic group that developed many different technologies (like, say, guns) or the ethnic group that still runs naked through the jungle and considers knives high-tech? "Those naked dudes are clearly stupid and less developed than I am because I got guns!" said the white man in Africa.
One of the biggest racist prejudices black americans hear is that they are lazy because they achieve so much less than white folk. They guys with the titles and medals and guns.
Achievements are the acknowledgements that you gained skills, positions, posessions, knowledge or reputation. That can only be acknowledged becaused somebody judged you. Like the test or dissertation I have to write to become a Professor of Physics. This achievement will cause other to have prejudices about me, like "He's a professor, he must be smart!"
The definition of racism you posted says this:
"racism is the belief that depending on your race you can develop in a certain way or to a certain level"
This is a modern definition based on racist expirience. It says that racists think you can not achieve more than they can based on the achievements your ancestors had compared to theirs. "Once a slave, always a slave. If black people weren't so lazy, they wouldn't need a good whipping!" That train of thought.
All that of course underplays the emotional component of hatred, the driving force of racism in its worst forms.
Now my fingers hurt.

One of Those Days 2 - Free Skiing with Candide Flovex

artician says...

I'm not much of a sportsman (I do everything, but poorly).

At one point in my life I had the amazing opportunity to work at a company whose office was literally on the beach in Southern California. Every day at lunch, if the waves were good, everyone would surf.

One time out, one of the rare times I caught a wave and rode it into shore, as I was riding I looked down through the clear water and below my board was a school of at least a dozen fish surfing/following under me, whipping back and forth right under the tip of my board, just enjoying the tide in the same way I was.

That was one of the most beautiful memories I'll have for the rest of my life. Your comment just brought that up, didn't mean to hijack the thread, but wanted to say: Experience everything, everyone. We all deserve at least one magical moment in our lives. That was one of mine. I'm thrilled when I get to see or hear of others.

A Mini Cooper being made

SwimWithSharks says...

we'll see what happens once most jobs are 'efficiency-ed-out', unlike in the industrial revolution now you're not just seeing mechanization becoming faster at specific tasks, robotization is becoming more and more flexible, which means that as it goes on more and more broad categories of jobs will go by the wayside.

Just think of when in the endless quest for profit the moment it becomes more cost effective to switch to, say, self-driving delivery trucks and entirely automated fast food, how many millions of people will that put out of work? and what are they going to do?

I don't blindly subscribe to dystopian scenarios, but I also don't blindly subscribe to platitudes like "horse buggy whip factories disappeared and we were just fine", this is something we need to address as a society somehow (via basic income maybe, or some other way)

film the police-an OWS call to arms

eric3579 says...

Intro (Sage Francis):
Right about now, the SFR court is in full effect!
Judge Sage presiding in the case of the People vs. The Police Department.
Prosecuting attorneys are: Toki Wright, Jasiri X and B motherfuckin’ Dolan.
Order! Order! Order! B. Dolan, take the motherfuckin’ stand.
Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?
(Dolan: You goddamn right.)
Then why don’t you tell everyone what the fuck they have the right to do?

Verse 1 
(B. Dolan):
Film the Police. Run a tape for the underclass!
Get the face, name and number on the badge.
They flash, we flash back when they act disorderly.
React accordingly and capture all that we see…
Nightstick, Zip-ties, and Tasers.
Think they’re licensed for type vicious behavior.
Make a tight fist with a video trained toward the Pigs,
Like this. They trip & you make ‘em famous.
Explain to a Judge the bounds you oversteppin’.
2011 time to the change our method.
We aim lenses at the State’s weapon,
‘Til they remember whose goddamn streets they’re protecting.
They’d rather see me in a cell
Than me and my cell with a different story to tell.
Camcorder by the dash. Next time you get stopped,
Reach for the celly if you wanna shoot a cop.
On a public sidewalk, you can tape what you see,
Or film from your window with a view of the street!
Neighborhood Crime Watch, we police the Police.
They can’t arrest the whole community.
Because the streets clock. These cops occupying blocks,
Harassing the homeless with batons, pulling glocks.
They stop lawful protests and let off shots…
Abuse prostitutes and misuse power they got.
In memory of the victims who are never forgot,
We’ve gotta’ exercise our right to shed light in the dark.
There is an army on the march that doesn’t want you to watch.
You’ve got a weapon in your pocket whether you know it or not.
We, the people, are the only real media we got.
Let’s protect one another from the fucking goon squad.
Fascism’s coming to the U.S.A.
Eyo, Sage, I got something to say!
Verse 2 (Toki Wright):
Film the police! It’s time to make it our priority.
You see these fools are in abuse of their authority.
Crack a fist or you crack a whip.
But that ain’t power you coward, you beat a man with two shackled wrists.
So put their names up on a list next to an asterisk.
Next time you see ‘em blast a clip, then you flash a flick.
Attach a video and pic to your master list.
Be on the news at 6. YouTube views legit.
The cops watch us, so we gotta have the Cop Watchers.
Been in fear of law so long, so now it’s not awkward.
But what is law when it’s wrong. When you slam us on the floor.
Naw, this ain’t World Wrestling Entertainment Raw.
This is Edutainment, y’all. Got a call from B. Dolan.
You try to squabble with Johnny Law and get your meat swollen.
Why you think Bobby and Huey P. were heat holding?
You better load the footage up and get to key stroking.
And while you at it, send one off to the administration,
It’s indicating, all the physical intimidation.
It’s been too long they said to “bear with us.”
That’s when I run up on your caravan and rip off all your D.A.R.E. stickers.
This here is near Hitler’s; weirder than some mere tickets…
You feel privileged ’til your wife get her brassiere lifted.
You disappear quick as Hoffa if you piss a copper,
Off ya’ til you get a Channel 7 News helicopter.
Violence hides in a code of silence, tyrants hide in an alliance,
Quiet or be left somewhere, or get swept inside it.
It’s Goliath vs. a bigger giant.
Got us pulling over so far we ran a curb and hit a hydrant.
It’s systematic how the system has its symptoms,
Of the democratic law that’s been flawed since the pilgrims landed.
So now tell me what you wanna do? Next time you see the boys in blue,
You cock your camera back and point and shoot.

Verse 3 (Jasiri X):
Film the police! I got the Cannon 7D.
Highest definition for when they try to arrest and lynch ‘em,
Then lie and protest the whippin’, not serve and protect the victims.
Their murders, threats and hitmen…observe ‘em and let the witness be
The iphone. Never let bygones be bygones.
Get your flip cam before they get in the whip and ride on.
It’s vital ’cause our survival could depend on a video going viral,
With more viewers than American Idol.
Instead of having to bury a child who…
The cops shot ’cause they thought they carried a rifle.
Then the same cops will go to court and swear on a bible,
And smile to show the teeth that they’re preparing to lie through.
Whether Crips or Piru ,Vice Lords or Gangsta Disciples,
Make sure your camera lens gets an eyeful.
And they liable to try and confiscate it.
Better hold on to that shit like you’re constipated.
‘Cause they’ll pretend them injuries are not related,
Like, “When we arrived we saw him dive head first off the pavement.”
So keep the mini cam stashed in the dash of your mini van.
They’ll crash and smash on any man.
Pull out your Blackberry ’cause cops will take a shot at your black berry,
‘Til we see another black buried.
Don’t act scary, ’cause they’ll empty the gat on ya’,
Stand over your body just to sprinkle the crack on ya’.
Police attacking ya’. Don’t want to see they reflections like Dracula.
But camera’s capture ya’.
Too busy using your flashlight to batter us,
To notice John Singleton was my passenger.
So point, click and shoot they asses,
It’s the only way to get the real truth to the masses.
Jasiri X, I’m making movies like Spike Lee.
I won’t be a law and order special victim like Ice T.

Never Feed Your Cat Whipped Cream

xxovercastxx says...

There is. Lactose intolerance is the norm for adult mammals. Humans who come from dairy-heavy cultural backgrounds are an exception.

This study focuses on humans, but it tells you this right in the abstract.

You're right that a tiny squirt of whipped cream isn't going to hurt, but I don't see the point in getting them interested in it in the first place. I wouldn't want to train them to seek out something that's going to make them sick if I'm not there to control portions.

SeesThruYou said:

Actually, there's no scientific basis for that statement. Cats CAN eat dairy, but the rule is, you shouldn't feed it to them REGULARLY. A treat like this once in a while, and in small amounts, is perfectly fine. Any properly trained and reputable veterinarian will tell you the same.

I grew up on a dairy farm where the cats (dozens of them) were always finding some milk spilled somewhere in the milk parlor, and they never became ill. I'm talking about UNPASTEURIZED milk, no less. Hell, they used to eat the flesh of dead cows and pigs without any issues either, so trust me when I say that a lousy dab of whipped cream isn't doing any harm.

No, really, never feed your cat dairy. It's not good for them.

Unreal exchange over Canada’s involvement in Iraq

Sagemind says...

Embarrassed by this...
Us, out West have no influence whatsoever on policy made in Canada as all policy is made in the East. The political borders in Canada make it impossible for anything we say or do to be of any consequence.
We whipped our hands of them years ago because they built the structure in a way that we were excluded.

The future of ghost-riding?
