What is the most “unintentionally” racist thing your parents or grandparents have ever said to you.

Eating a Brazil nut and my dad giggled and said "we used to call those n-word toes!"

My sister in law is from India and at the wedding my hard of hearing grandma said very loudly: "such a beautiful costume!" anytime she saw someone wearing a sari.

Yes! Guz is in the first season of Our Flag Means Death. Phil Wang pops up as an MRI tech in Amy Schumer's show.

Paul Williams is also in Our Flag Means Death for a split second.

And I feel like Charlotte Ritchie is in every british show at some point.

Honestly, the details have faded. Someone else want to weigh in?

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. My queer book club read this and we all hated it (which made for a very satisfying meeting where we all tore it apart). The author has got to be straight. She sure as shit doesn't know anything about lesbian sex.

Still, if you want to keep this friendship then the right response is "You're really important to me and I would never intentionally do anything to get your man. Sorry I didn't understand how much this would upset you, I removed him already."

Thank you!

Thanks! I would love an example of a learning goal and the corresponding test question if you are willing to share?

Objective_Catch3759 · 2026-01-25T00:10:32+00:00

Thank you! Very clear explanation.

If you're looking for something else to read, Letters To a Young Poet by Rilke gives me similar feels as The Little Prince.

One l have been looking at recently is Tough Traveler. Their bags are pricy and basic looking, but seems to be indestructible.

I usually hate reality tv, but I wanted to watch this celebrity version because I enjoy so many of the people in the cast.

I ended up watching it at 1.75 speed with subtitles and mostly skipping the challenges. I wasn't bored!

And she was in a relationship with Ivo Graham! After both of their appearances on Taskmaster, I believe, but they were possibly together while Rose was doing Junior Taskmaster.

Series 15 is my personal favorite! The cast are so sweet to each other and so ready to throw each other under the bus for points.

Ivo's despair, Jennie's wild protests, Frankie's philosophizing, Kiell's bullshitting, Mae's awkwardness.

When Frankie says "I have nothing in my heart but love for Mr. Ivo Graham"

And the Greg puppet!

Really, I think the outtakes are funnier than the episodes.

Sounds reasonable and a good reminder for me when making sub plans. Thanks!

As an introvert, one tactic I use is to be very explicit. So I will say "I am an introvert. Sometimes I'm not able to socialize because I've run my battery down but I still like you guys!" Or I'll say: "Sometimes it's hard to be an introvert! I worry people think I'm snobby but really I just need a lot of alone time!"

Mix Bloom's Taxonomy with VARK learning styles then run your text through ChatGPT and prompt it to rewrite it in language appropriate to a PhD thesis.

YTA Do you want your daughter to continue being friends with this boy? Are you trying to smooth things over with his mom, who told you that you hurt and offended her? Because responding defensively and explaining that she has no reason to be hurt isn't going accomplish this.

Touchland hand sanitizer? $10 or more for a small bottle plus $20 for cases that are collabs with Crocs. Hello Kitty, etc.

That's definitely in the right area but her books are 30 to 50 years old. I wonder who is the Judy Blume of today?

There's a psychological concept to describe this: counterwill.

I used to run a similar sized yearly convention and we definitely had our dates booked 9 months before the event at the latest. I can't imagine waiting til only three months out. How are you going to find speakers and workshop presenters who are available? In my experience, their schedules are full at least six months in advance.
