I’d forgotten about the Queen of Canada, Behind the Bastards, “thanks” for reminding me. (How’s she doing these days, anyway? Has the rest of Canada recognized her reign yet?)

If you’d quit whining and choosing option D out of laziness, entitlement, or both, and keep choosing option A, eventually your drawings wouldn’t be “bad” anymore. Being able to create artwork is skill, not an inborn talent, and it takes practice just like every other skill

you’d think, given that current events are unfortunately definitely going to be taught as a notable part of US history, democrats would have some interest in not being recorded as stuttering dweebs who spent the whole time shoved in a metaphorical locker

My surprise and outrage were pretty genuine this morning
President Trump posted a blatantly racist video clip of Barack Obama and Michelle Obama as apes, the latest in a long pattern by Trump of promoting offensive stereotypes about Black Americans and others. The White House press secretary dismissed criticism as “fake outrage.”

I will go further than this is and say that your behavior always communicates exactly what is in your heart
It’s precisely BECAUSE we cannot know what’s in another person’s heart that we cannot use that as the standard to judge their behavior.

Intent truly only matters if it’s the difference between “I didn’t mean to offend AND AM FIXING IT NOW because I did” and “I am indifferent at best to my offense.”
I think one thing white people tie ourselves in knots over about racism is what someone “feels in their heart” or whatever. And that just … doesn’t really matter? It’s the behavior that matters.

Re: this performance

For a long time I have keenly felt the absence in the English language of a word for:

The specific resentment I feel towards a person I despise who nonetheless causes me to feel secondhand embarrassment on their behalf.

Maybe I’m crazy, but I’d think a speech given at a “national prayer breakfast” would have significantly more to do with spirituality and related things and a lot less personal grievance-airing
