  1. it's definitely a sarcastic southern thing black people form the south say in referrence to a white person doing the thing that any decent human being would do but expecting praise for it because they're white and in the south. like holding the door open for an old person and thinking that you've parted the sea and delivered the jews to paradise. i'm not sure why my brain connected that saying with this thread but that's brains i guess. edit: now that i think of it it's also a jab at white people being two faced. one way in public but another way in private, in teh voting booth, in the field wearing white hoods and robes and burning crosses but big smile and "pardon me let me get that door for you". i'm going to sleep before i start referencing Bulworth.
  2. interesting experiment. wasn't aware of that. i remember the milli vanilli controversy.
  3. yeah.. it's kinda gross. in general i find being disingenuous intollerable. for some reason this reminds of something i heard growing up in florida.. "well, that's mighty white of you" . when someone wants extra credit for just being a human being. white hero trope. "thanks for our civil rights. so mighty white of you". can't recall where i heard it first. probably between some adults when i was a kid. anyway.. i think constructive criticism is an art and a lot of people don't know how to do it and usually just are dicks about it and can't be objective. for some people it's a hard thing to learn. often it's better to say nothing. the internet is a big weird place with room for all kinds of non-mainstream shit on mainstream platforms. anonymity can still be had if that's desired... as can unapologetic presentation. the fans and haters seem to appear regardless. directing people to the welcoming places and building community around it takes guardians (fuckn mods). my back hurts.
  4. rudy announced the trump campaign is trying to bring another case to the supreme court. jesus these fucks. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-election-2020/supreme-court-trump-giuliani-election-b1780166.html
  5. some people do.. some don't. there's young people on line looking for feedback on their creations and have no experience w/an kind art type environment so constructive criticism can be helpful.. encouragement too. some kids or more sensitive and vulnerable than others and lack acceptance in their lives so the internet can be that safe space or something.. some people don't need any encouragement and give zero fucks and it's usually pret obvious who the confident people are who are going to hustle to get wherever they need to go. consensus is it's generally more difficult for women to be taken seriously in many environments. idk. i don't study or track this stuff. also, since 2004 i've lived in the portland bubble so my perspective is probably different. there's lot's of people here of all stripes who play gigs, make art and do things with lot's of support from the community and various scenes.. at least.. when there's not a pandemic.
  6. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/12/29/luke-letlow-covid-congress-452218
  7. not being a woman is holding back so many men from getting more internet comments.
  8. i think that's been updated to "hex the patriarchy". edit: i don't have the energy for this discussion but here's 2cents worth regarding the op. i find it hard to believe that anyone who makes music/art and shares it on line and social media isn't savy enough to understand what is or isn't happening when attractive persons get lot's of likes/comments because of their appearance or having certain body parts vs not having certain body parts. it's either really naive or totally disingenuous especially for an adult who's been around and spent lot's of time on line.
  9. there's just so much to love about this painting. pelosi stabbing him in the side with short legs and weirdly painted knee. trump being like 4 times her size.. i guess being the central figure in the painting his stature is exagerated.. the look on his face like he just shit cum piss farted all at the same time and is really loving it. put in and kim and who Xi in the back ground.. the maga hat.. the american flag as a diaper.. the inaccuracy of the crucifiction pose and location of the nails. chef's kiss.. brilliance.
  10. it's passed for the moment, or was pushed aside by life, but i'm sure will bubble up again. it's been on the tip of my tongue for years.
  11. just get a doctor's note to show the cops and it'll be fine.
  12. this is my pattern in recent weeks. stay up late not realizing it's 3am. have lousy sleep, wake at usual time.. plough through the day somehow and then do it again. been working on music at least. but yeah.. my sleep is fucked up for real. not sure what to do about it. last night was better but only because i was so overtired.
