Thank you for this. I'm glad I'm not the only one who immediately thought of the crazy goons who loved spoiled meat.

Raw honey is the bomb, though I can see how it would creep people out to eat propolis and bits of wax if you get the unfiltered stuff. Or if you're my sister who didn't realize that uncapped honey ferments and opened a jar months later to find what was basically mead.

We need a honey/beekeeper thread.

To be charitable re folx, if it started on Twitter, it may have been a way to shave off a character in your tweet.

I don't know why I'm trying to be charitable, the stupidest answer usually wins.

I'm always torn on this kind of thing. On the one hand, I want to holler "Oooh, werk, bitch!" On the other hand, please don't do things like this in a drat grocery store..if only because your slave is blocking the aisles and is about to be accidentally run over by my shopping cart.


Both my middle and initial high school (same town in the South, mid-2000s) mascots were the "Red Raiders", which was, you guessed it, a Native American with headdress. In high school, our mascot(s) were a boy and a girl dressed in lovely cheap-looking "Indian" clothes, complete with facepaint, tomahawks, and feathers. I didn't think much of it at the time, but immediately after moving to California in 2008, I had a shitton of people go "UM, wow, that's really blatantly racist." I'm curious to know if my old schools still do this in 2021..I just looked, and it seems the name has stayed the same (but the mascot may have changed).

My high school (small city in the south, early-mid 2000s) was also Red Raiders, but the mascot was a piratey looking dude since at least when my brother went there in the mid-late 90s.

Cardiovorax posted:

Isn't Raya about as legitimately Asian as Kung Fu Panda, being a Disney product and all? Maybe I'm missing some context here, but the entire discussion seems to be about something weirdly unrelated to what the Tweet was actually about.

Raya was just the jumping off point--she also mentions YA novels with similar settings, etc. published in recent years, which as others have mentioned are often by Asian authors.

And I think what makes it racist is that, as a few people have noted, the base of the stories is basically just the hero's journey, so whatever makes it "avatar redux" in her eyes would have to be the setting, cultural influences, etc. If she'd left it at just things clearly produced by white people or huge western companies, though, it'd be perhaps a poorly phrased tweet but maybe not as bad?

There's also the argument that the popularity of avatar helped open studios', publishers', etc. eyes to the commercial viability of these stories, which helps the poc trying to tell them. It's basically "oh this wasn't any good until a white person did it" which is gross, if often true in the eyes of those in power. But that's not what she said either.

Oh yeah, and the media killed Harry's mother.

William's got three actually. An article I saw about the new baby said she's eighth in line, so I guess quitting the royal family didn't take them out of the succession, but yeah, I doubt they'd be enthusiastic about it.

I remember a talk show one summer as a kid that had a couple on where they DNA tested the kid, dad, and mom cause the kid looked NOTHING like the parents, and found out that neither parent was the biological parent. Turned out the Hospital had switched the kid with another on accident.

There was also the woman with chimerism who had a few kids and was pregnant with a third, and they did a DNA test to establish relationships when she applied for benefits, but the DNA they pulled from her skin and hair didn't match her kids. They actually took her two kids away at first because they thought she was involved in some sort of scam and the judge required someone observe her giving birth to the one she was pregnant with. Same thing happened with that baby, but her attorney learned about chimerism and got them to test her extended family, and her mom matched to the degree you'd expect for a grandma. It also turned out a DNA sample from the woman's cervical cells matched the kids.

Edited to fix the context for the DNA test, per this article: https://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/shes-twin/story?id=2315693

That is a great thread! I've never read Sinfest but it was one of those things that always popped up on many places in the early 2000s.

Some of those early strips are cringy now, but I'd wager the average SA humor was even worse in those days. Then the world changed and Sinfest doubled down.

And also lol Twitter is the worst possible medium for long form writing it's amazing how people do those mega threads.

ThreadReader makes it nice tho.

At least for that one I think they were originally live tweeting their read through rather than setting out to write a cohesive piece?

Also I thought Vaush was one of those mgtow types. Is there someone else with a V name I've gotten him mixed up with?

SH was an extremely bad adaptation, though was pretty and made the monsters look good.
It was mostly SH's story, but with the SH2 iconic monsters. Also the writer/director proudly boasted that he couldn't understand the concept of a father caring about a daughter so much -which is why SH1 was clearly a story about motherly love, so he changed the main character to a woman instead.

Which is crazy because SH is clearly about male circumcision.

Uh, you do get taxed from money given to you. There absolutely is a gift tax. And there is a tax on unearned income as well. There are also limits to personal transactions in the tax code.

Case in point: winning the lottery or at a casino is an example of unearned income. Selling a used car is being payed for goods. The Man will always get his.

If you get paid in pure hard cash drug lord style you won’t probably have to worry about it, but once it gets put into a bank account the bank reports that to the IRS and the eyebrows are raised.

https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/understand-how-to-report-large-cash-transactions

In the US, the federal gift tax is paid by the payor, not the payee, and there are huge exemptions that mean most people won't pay it. I think some states tax the payee, maybe. But otherwise the point, as others noted, is someone saying they'll pay but not actually paying. At least for cash basis US taxpayers and ignoring constructive receipt (which probably wouldn't apply here based on what we know), there likely wouldn't be any liability unless ol' musky actually pays out.

Well I suppose the train is kind of crowded, but it looks like the men are sitting on each others laps to ensure everybody can sit down and give enough space to the sad woman wearing a flag. They're enjoying themselves while still being respectful of her personal space. I guess I'd prefer a future where they could each have their own seat, but other than that everything looks fine to me.

There's plenty of space on her side of the train, but she just shat herself. A bit mean of them to laugh at her for it, though.
