Bigot: "those blacks sure are lazy"

Idiot: "excuse me, that's antisemitic"

who would you rather be? cuz right now, you're acting like the first one

are you fucking kidding me?

fine, it's not anti Semitic. it's bigoted. is that better?? is this the hill you'll fucking die on?

this is basically like you saying "those blacks sure are lazy" and i said "excuse me, that's antisemitic". fine, i might be an idiot, but you're still a fucking racist asshole.

and you fucking ideological sheep reading this and playing along, caring more about politics and buzzwords than bigotry and hatred, or who the "real victim" is, you're all complicit in the bigotry and hatred too. wake the fuck up from your ideologies and see people for who they are

salt is so much more than a spice. it's closer to a tool than an ingredient, like a fork or water

I've been focusing on cooking more simply. the goal is fewer ingredients, less time and effort, more appreciation for simple flavor and quality ingredients

the thing is, there's nothing stopping you from making that a reality

that's a beautiful thing. so, what moment were you all at your gayest? have you ever been THE gayest?

it's true. remember even Athens functioned on the back of slavery

I didn't really have a cushion besides being American though. but that was enough

I have a degree in philosophy and a degree in therapy and i promise the therapy part makes people way more uncomfortable than the philosophy part. I never really encountered weird attitudes about philosophy tbh. maybe it's how I own it. I very earnestly live like a Socrates - Diogenes hybrid and try to make smart stuff sound dumb and safe to engage the community neurons. and my general excitement about it, if my philosophy background comes up, it's from a place of passionate curiosity where we're already talking about interesting shit and me using the ph word just makes them think "oh we're about to get into it".

it could also be the context with which ppl get to know me is more receptive to philosophical conversations. I genuinely believe that therapy is literally just a modern philosophy practice.

I appreciate the summary and I think i get why people like sports ball.... but I really enjoy having a sports ball free space to talk about how absurd it is the way our society obsesses over it. on the internet, you're the weirdo, not me!
