It's funny how the only stand up comedians who insist that "comedy doesn't matter" are straight white men who target every demographic in their stand ups except straight white men
I went out with a guy who proudly told me "[he] is not easily offended."
To which I thought: why in God's name would you be? There aren't any widely used offensive or demeaning ethnic or sexual slurs for straight white men in this part of the world.
It's hard to offend straight white men because there is literally no offensive language relating to their ethnicity, gender or sexuality that can be used against them.
That's why they're "not easily offended". We have nothing to offend them with.
That is, of course, until Hannah Gadsby came along...

Why is my body falling apart?!
Sorry, I am being melodramatic! I went walking in the woods on Sunday, and I woke up this morning to find a bite on my leg that has not only swollen, but developed a clear bullseye rash. So the nurse who examined me took one look and has run off to fetch the doctor. That's all!
It's just the timing: my follow up breast screening is in Aberdeen tomorrow morning as well

Give me a movie starring a woman in her fifties who kills bad guys and blows shit up, while seducing sexy men in their early twenties who then die horribly. She completely ignores their deaths and cheerily goes on to save Queen and country. I'll watch that shit, fuck James Bond
To clarify: I don't mean women in their fifties who look twenty. I mean, women are in their fifties and look fifty.

Scarlett Johansson is the white liberal heroine of the Trump Age: a self-righteous, privileged and wealthy white liberal who uses her clout to defend equally privileged white people, who never apologises, who never listens, who feels entitled to whatever she wants. Cancelled.
I clarify: cancelled by me. You don't need me to tell you that you're all welcome to do whatever you like, obviously 😊
I too am a privileged white liberal woman, with enough arrogance and self-righteousness to one day burn King's Landing on my dragon.
Yet I have somehow refrained from using my privilege to shield a wildly more powerful man from credible accusations of child molestation.

Thread on Jonathan Garcia's film "Why Don't We Murder More White People."

The film was displayed at @ybca Public Square on June 1st 2019 in San Francisco CA.

This is the preview.

Credit to @GoyimGroup @Aglaophamos @i_aver @1350Groyper for their research & information posted.
There's nothing morally wrong with killing whites; that's the tone of the question.

The answer "We don't murder more white people because it's very dangerous to do so?" reinforces that.

The only worry about killing whites is how it might negatively impact on PoC.

#Evil
Look at the body language.

> Thumbs up

> Laughter

> Far away reflection .... "I'm angry at white people. Most of the time"

We are talking about the #murder of white people here remember.

ok kids we’re doing this, hankcon parent trap au starts here:

Connor sat at his desk, sketching a new design for the line he was presenting next month. The wedding boutique he had opened with all the money he could possibly scrape together had, in the past eight years, become
an absolute success, with brides queueing down the streets of London to buy a gown from Connor Stern. It was hard work but it was work Connor loved, and he never would have traded it for anything.

Connor heard the front door open downstairs and the low tone of his brother’s
voice reverberate through the house. Connor smiled, pushing back from his seat to head down the stairs. He’d planned to go to the airport himself this morning but found himself in a conference call that kept dragging on. He was nearly about to hang up on them entirely when

[Day4: Strengths & Limits of #SciComm forms, media, & spaces]
It's theory vs practice day!

There are loads of resources out there for #BestPractices. Today, let's discuss the strengths & limitations YOU've found in trying #STEM #storytelling, #comedy, #SciArt, #digital, & more!
I'll start w/ my favorite resources: @edbeltane & @OliverEscobar's "Public Dialogue & Delibration" & #WendyFaulkner's "Dialogue in #PublicEngagement" handbooks.

How do participant #communication styles impede/help your purpose, eg. #dialogue vs #debate?
beltanenetwork.org/DialogueTheory…
These have been crucial in my understanding of #experiencedesign when creating events or experiences for diverse #scicomm audiences & participants.

There's a purpose for panels and debates. But also a reason why they fail in "changing minds" or creating power-balanced convos.

You got it! Happy to oblige...

I attended a predominantly-Black middle school in Killeen, Texas. From 6th to 8th grade, I went to school with a student body in which white kids were a small fraction. And I did witness discrimination... against students of color. (thread)
Many, if not most, of my teachers and principals were Black. Most of the students were either Black or Latinx. There were some AAPI and Native American students. White students made up about a quarter of the student body. You, Stefan, think I'd be disadvantaged. You'd be wrong.
Because looking back, even as an impoverished white kid, everything I did was given the benefit of the doubt. Late to class? Late assignments? The occasional (though tame) misbehaving? All readily forgiven. I can't say the same for my peers of color, who were under a microscope.

April 1945 | Almost liberated Netherlands | My mother writes...

We were living in limbo. Even the wandering loners had disappeared. It was a strange feeling, waiting almost breathlessly for the next phase. Nobody could predict exactly when and how it would present itself.
It’s strange, but I don’t recall the exact date. It was before the 10th of May and it was a Monday, because I was doing the laundry. The weather was pleasant, because I was outside at the back of the house, with the tub.

My colleagues Maaike and Truus had the day off.
It was actually quite unusual for two of us to be off on the same day. They came to greet me, demonstratively walking arm in arm, as if to say: “We’re going off on a lovely walk and you have to stay here and work.”

“Have fun!” I shouted. “And bring back a couple of Canadians!”
