Thoughts and errata from a hobbyist designer's journey.

I just realized one of the things that’s really bothering me about the Hobby Lobby/Wheaton College decisions:

They imply that employees’ compensation is a favor. Like a company paying you for your work isn’t compensating you for the productivity you added, it’s Dad giving you some pocket change...

I just saw a birth announcement for a “Terezi” in the local newspaper.

IT HAS BEGUN.

When my sister worked at the Apple store, her favorite thing was correcting customers who referred to Siri as “she.” "ACTUALLY, SIRI IS A COMPUTER AND HAS NO GENDER." People got so uncomfortable. My sister seemed to enjoy it.

feminism never made me hate men

men’s behavior made me hate men

Lobster in a bucket looks like a gigantic monster on a metallic planet, and the waterdrops look like stars.

Preferring to date a race isn’t racist! It’s like preferring a certain hair color or height

racists Let me break this down: - Race is a social construct invented by Western Europeans to justify chattel slavery. Preferences aren’t biological or something you are born with, because race didn’t even exist until about 500 years ago.

-  Among PoC, there is no race/ethnic group/country where all the people have anything in common besides being from a certain part of the world. Among PoC, there is no race where every member has the same skin color, hair color, hair type, eye color, language, clothing, culture, etc.  - The only race whose members all have something in common is white- all white people have to have light skin in order to be white. This rule was created by white people themselves, and is intentionally exclusive. - Don’t even pretend that you don’t know there is a racial hierarchy in beauty. Everyone knows that in Western culture white women are seen as the most desirable, black women are seen as the least desirable, and everyone else is in the middle. Funny how these “innate” and “random” preferences seem to line up perfectly with white beauty standards/white supremacist ideals.

- No more false equivalencies. PoC not wanting to date white people is not the same as the reverse. PoC almost never believe that white people are unattractive/ugly, they just find it too difficult to meet a white person who is actively unlearning and working to dismantle white supremacy. 

- Stop trying to defend yourself. If you have racial or ethnic preferences, whether they are positive or negative, you are the problem, stop blaming it on everyone else. You have to acknowledge and unlearn whatever stereotype you’ve absorbed.  Like a previous post I made, this post is also not a place to try to debate whether racial preferences are bad or not. I’ve made my statement based on pretty obvious facts about Western culture and white supremacy. If you don’t agree, move on. However, feel free to share your experiences with this (either involving you or someone else).

College Board line of reasoning

College Board: Pay for this test we made to measure your aptitude for college

College Board: Oh, you want to do well on said test? Pay for materials put out by us to do it

College Board: Pay us to send your test results to colleges. We won't even use paper; it's electronic

College Board: Pay us to take a test that certifies mastery of college level material. Take college level classes to get into college basically. But pay us

College Board: Pay us to send a lengthy, confusing financial aid application to colleges even if you don't get in. Pay us more if your parents are divorced

College Board: Pay us

College Board: We're a non profit organization
