“If you’re tempted to down a soda, water, glass of wine, coffee, or other liquid while typing away at your keyboard, you may end up paying the ultimate price—liquid spilled into your computer from an accidental knock, a few drips or a dropped cup. If this happens, don’t panic. Instead, follow these simple instructions as quickly as you can to try to salvage your computer.”

“

In situations where white people like to think of themselves as “minorities” what’s really happening is they’re experiencing racialization for the first time in their lives.”What do you mean I’m not immediately trusted? Why is everybody looking at me like I don’t belong? People are being mean and not smiling at me for existing!”

It’s a slight glimpse into the 24/7 lives of non-whites in the USA and might illuminate one of the many reasons self-segregation happens (not getting into redlining and white flight etc etc). But no, white folks can’t be a minority in the USA.

“I dislike the word visibility, maybe because for me it evokes the rhetoric of assimilation — as IF the goal of trans/LGBT/whatever movements were about being seen and gaining acceptance from society — I don’t subscribe to that. I never placate myself by thinking that exhibition or press opportunities are about doing good by “my people,” or being a representative or something weird like that. Success to me is more about privilege and motivation and power, and it can be used to create change, but it can also be a slippery slope. I’m interested in looking at all those factors and trying to make decisions that keep me accountable to the people I’m in dialog with and the ideas that I hope to share in order to impact consciousness.”

Gertrude Stein & Alice B. Toklas paper dolls by Trina Robbins. From No Straight Lines: Four Decades of Queer Comics.

Every once and awhile, I remember how my awful eighth grade social studies teacher made me write a paper on Gertrude Stein but clearly didn’t know anything about her. And I thank that teacher for indirectly introducing me to such a rad woman.

thisiswhiteprivilege:

White privilege is vilifying Chris Brown (And rightly so, what he did was shitty) while completely ignoring Eminem, Axl Rose, Mel Gibson, Sean Connery, Sean Penn, Gary Oldman, Charlie Sheen, Michael Fassbender, among others (receipts in links. TW for domestic abuse).

Mod note: We’ve done this one before, but I like that this one comes with links.
