Oh Nina no
what does the woke community think of the pouch pic?
That’s something I don’t really understand. Re-litigating the past with the gaze of modern standards. Like, we’re supposed to be better. That’s the point. Learn from the past and be better.
Jefferson and Washington owned slaves. Well so did just about everybody who had money. That’s just what happened. I don’t see the point in getting in an argument with a ghost who’s been dead for 200 years. Who, pray, should we name things after? At this point I’m like fucking nobody. MLK had issues with domestic violence and god only knows what he thought about homosexuality. John Muir said poor things about Native Americans. Those two also did a mountain (in Muir’s case, quite literally) of things for people.
I guess I don’t like the arrogance of it. ’Cause guess what. People in about a hundred years time are going to look back on us and say: monsters! Our use or plastic. How we treat animals. Hell, how we treat the ground we’re stuck on. Oil consumption. All of it. So before one starts teeing off on some dead guy, maybe get a modicum of perspective. Especially when it comes to comedy and satire.
Poor Ed. Another thread, another whipping.
Dont hate the player, zack. Hate the game, mate.

Can we get a pic of you in the MAGA hat?
They make us put our preferred pronouns on our work email signature. I asked if I could do “it” and “that” (somewhat in jest) but HR shot that down very quickly and told me I wasn’t funny.
Can anyone explain woke and woke culture in terms of where the term came from and what the fuck it means?

Hursty I blame Childish Gambino.
(I actually really like this song)
but for real….a quick skim of this article seems to cover it: https://theconversation.com/where-woke-came-from-and-why-marketers-should-think-twice-before-jumping-on-the-social-activism-bandwagon-122713

Oh, get you, zack!
You’re taking this bad mate. I’m posting slightly in jest, as per, but I stand over the basis of my posts.
