you know you are a cool and good company when you put up a job listing and people immediately jump to making half jokes about how you probably murked the guy who last held that position, and they're like. 96% unfounded

like i do think this is all most likely just a coincidence but i cannot emphasize enough that people are making these morbid jokes bc Nintendo is now the "Sends Regular People To Prison And Ruins Their Lives For Modding Their Stuff" company, and the fact that they cannot be handwaved as utterly fantastical with a clear conscience should be spine chilling to you

it's happened at least twice now that cohost has a big race discourse and then some white person decides to go around to every person of color they come across like "um, hi, can you please supply me with the correct discourse opinions, or else?" i'm not pinning this one on the collective whiteness of this site in particular because it happens all the time on tumblr but it is nevertheless very funny to me. "mommy? mommy? sorry. mommy?" but for asking if you're not racist

I think a lot of white people just have very little experience with engaging with like... intentional analysis? Like idk, if you have to ask what are the right opinions to have instead of PoC voices informing your own maybe you don't actually give a shit about us and just care about if you could be called racist or not?

it’s genuinely fucking abhorrent that this site, priding itself on its inclusivity, is currently having a discussion as to whether orientalism is bad. genuinely what the fuck is wrong with some of you. i’ve been fortunate enough to not encounter many in the wild but it’s genuinely wild seeing ppl type out entire paragraphs that amount to “but that’s my emotional support racist stereotype”. like holy shit. do fucking better

It's almost like this is the natural end result when you build your entire personality and community around conflict avoidence. This is the only place uncritical white comfort can lead y'all!
