Can certain aspects of what constitutes ‘race’ be performative? I.e. are their certain clothes, behaviours, voice characteristics, words, body movements that make someone a particular race?

Or is race physically defined?

If it’s the former I can see a case for transracialism.

If it’s the latter it’s more difficult for me to see it being possible.

I don’t care for Brie Larson.

And I think Captain Marvel is a boring concept, wish they wouldn’t use that character as a focus.

I just want to say that I understand the reference for this and for anyone wondering there was a video of a cop who thought an acorn falling on a car roof was a gunshot and he immediately empties an entire magazine into a car while wildly combat rolling like a terrified toddler.

The body cam footage would be hilarious if it wasn’t so fucking terrifying.

It’s annoying me because that commenter is using a diminutive to try and anthropomorphise a robot.

You can anthropomorphise it but at least have a basic understanding of the dimensions of the thing you’re trying to make cute.

Curiosity isn’t a little robot.

It’s the size of a small car…

Yeah I called them all those things and I still do.

Steam doesn’t have a monopoly on digital games distribution if you’re unhappy with their service just use another one that allows you to own a direct software license.

Stop being a conspiracy nutjob.

And then the whole shower room got up and clapped.

Caveat I don’t have kids.

Can’t kids just miss a meal if they don’t want to eat it? Not like a kid is going to die from one missed meal.

Hmmm everything is political?

No. Everything is anime.

It’s privilege.

When people don’t want to talk politics it’s because they have the luxury of not being affected every moment of their lives about said politics.

I.e. easy to switch off the ‘trans people should die’ rhetoric when you’re a cis gendered middle aged white man in a western country.

And a thousand free speech absolutists cried out ‘but now the Nazis won’t be publicly known!!!’

Nothing good has ever come from public gatherings of Nazis.

John Waters is fantastic.

They’re all like, the same, man!

Arguably Revolution would be closer with Trump in office…

Not much of an argument to vote for trump but unfortunately probably true.

Cat 5 don’t fuck around.

Good luck Florida.

Wait what’s that about Chelsea Manning‽

The only person that claims there was some kind of a relationship prior to the guy and girl meeting is the mother.

If there was any strong evidence to this story it would have been tested in court. The article specifically says that was not the case. Which means it’s basically heresay about his interest in her when she was 14.

This article just sensationalises that piece of information instead of focussing on the real crime which was a doctor giving his potentially addicted partner drugs.

Wow I’m feeling sorry for you my dude. You’re correct and everyone is too dense to read the article…infuriating.

Yep. He fucked up because he was in a relationship with an addict who he should not have supplied drugs to.

Let Me Bleed said, “Though we are advocates of free speech we are collectively not a political band.“

This would be funny if it wasn’t so fucking dumb.
