    Jon, when you post a twitter something, could you try leaving an empty line, then paste the link on the third line? Your link does not show, unless I quote your post, then I see it. Maybe leaving some blank line(s) will somehow make it appear.

      Skip Vista altogether though.

        Yo mama, Aqua. So there. And yo mama's mama. Take That.(!)

        Actually, uncle Bill updated my Windows 10 to the newest, greatest operating system in the known universe. And, once again, it screwed everything up. Printer won't print, there are no updated drivers for my HP LaserJet. The computer boots to an empty screen, nothing on the desktop for at least a minute. Then, everything appears at once, and Microsoft Word automatically opens to a blank document.

        So (and I've gone through this many times), I roll back to the previous version, and everything works fine.

        Yeah, yeah, I know, "buy a dopey Mackintosh."

          Or access this place on a phone. Or tablet. Or some kind of a functional thing.

              @Rainman I've managed to change the tweet embedding such that there's no again a "Link to Tweet" link under each tweet. Even if a tweet doesn't show up, you should be able to click on that link.

                I’m not sure I completely understand this?

                It seems apt and brilliant but I want to get it completely.

                  I like to think I'm the girl on the right.

                  My interpretation of it is that anti-racism is a culture by white people for white people and is based on a fetishization of guilt. Which itself is based on the assumption of advantage, which closes the loop to White Supremacists. But that last part is extrapolation.

                  Education is extremely important.

                    Don’t miss the Domme/sub dynamic between the girls. It’s being forced down her throat, but the sub accepts it compliantly.

                      Actually I think we're getting absorbed by another one. We'll see what happens.

                      I work for a company that is a subsidiary of a Japanese company. Since Japan is a known racist culture, I am pretty comfortable that I won't have to read White Fragility any time soon.

                        I'm pretty sure the Japanese don't see us roundeye as particularly fragile.
