Absolutely right, and also the motivation for “don’t say gay” school policies. The fear is that their kids will be grossed out by their parents’ bigotry rather than internalizing and perpetuating it

A Tokyo friend, a Black American teacher at an expat elementary school, got upset about some misused equipment and said they should appreciate the privilege of having a school with nice things, etc etc. Guess which word got him in trouble with the American parents. PC is returning, with a twist

It’s unseemly how devoted the press is to getting played by brazen liars. The Face-Eating Leopard Party possibly softening its position on eating faces. No it isn’t

Unless I’m overlooking something really obvious, “show O to do X” only works with certain verbs to mean “reveal O as doing X,” as in “shows John to harbor anti-American biases.” As if the yellow light pulls the curtain back on the decelerating driver

In what kind of English is the intended correct answer “shows a driver to slow down” grammatical? I write this stuff for a living, or did before my clients decided AI could do it. Carelessly written textbooks screw teachers over so badly, like they need any more challenges in their workday

My mom’s older brother emailed to say he wouldn’t be attending the funeral, but solemnly assured me that he’d “always consider her as a member of the family.” My cousin and I noted that if he had gone first and our mothers had opted out of his funeral, we would judge them harshly indeed

No one put aside a single tangible thing to remember him by. I don’t know where his remains are. He just got deleted from this earth. I’m grateful I could do the work of holding a service for my mom and give her a worthy send off together with people she meant something to

I had talked to him the day before he suddenly died (not COVID) and it was like he checked every box that you’d want checked the last time you ever see someone. And then—a fuzzy livestreamed service during which his children were never mentioned

I don’t mean to be weird but I’m grateful to my mom for lasting as long as she did. My father died in 2021 when it was impossible to travel home and watching his funeral online at 2am was not an experience I’d recommend, emotional stabilitywise

These guys and the Trump Translator service they offer up. During the debate the NYT took his abortion rant and instantly crafted a coherent “Trump signals openness to compromise on abortion” position paper for him. The man has not suddenly started caring about the issue! What are we doing here

It’s an objectively nutty standard to hold anyone to, that everyday self-correction is a Danger Sign. The same NYT people were serving as Trump interpreters during the debate, instantly paraphrasing each rant like it was read out of a position paper, especially about abortion. Madness

It’s amazing how different a picture you get based on what your mutuals are talking about. On my feed we’re all aghast at the move to blow up the campaign, whether it’s out of genuine mindless panic or pure bad faith, while on FB my ancient Dem friends have gone 100% for Joe Must Bow Out. It’s bad

Anecdata, but: On Here the people I follow are, like me, aghast at the coordinated move to blow up the campaign over one bad performance. On Facebook all my boring reliable Blue voter friends have 100% swallowed the NYT line and are gibbering over which horse to try to leap onto. Losing my mind
