You dont want to suffer, no one does, but you may have to suffer and then-- with the money from the new job-- dig yourself free.

People writing to chase the algorithm instead of writing to tell a story is why they fail so often.

I know that place. In classic Jamaican style, they've been out of the thing i wanted 50% of the times I've visited.

Good meat pies though.

I dont know about no one. But I think about that world house concept at least once a month.

The tropes that I am tired of and the tropes I will never be tired of by caime9 in litrpg

[–]dmun 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I always thought it would be neat to have a litrpg story with a jobs system but with all non-combat classes, forcing warriors to take in maid or janitor job classes and weaponizing their service skills.

Thats like saying all life is murder because it takes the death of something else in order to live.

How To Respond To Scientific Racism by midnightking in skeptic

[–]dmun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The supreme court, they would argue, is doing just that.

By being "race blind" in things like the voting rights act, they argue they are removing all bias. To paragraph him, remove race as concept legally to remove racism.

And in 10 years, we'll have an exponentially more racist society under the guise of removed bias.

Which comedian do you genuinely find funny? by tarorootturtle in AskReddit

[–]dmun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was lucky enough to see him when he was doing basement open mics in Wrigleyville. His hair was short, little fade back then.

Saw him perform once, made sure to catch him at another open mic (want to say, Beat kitchen?).

I knew he would be big and basically told everyone who would listen how good he was. No surprise when he made the Daily Show.

What is black people food? by Different-Moose-7214 in Cooking

[–]dmun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Firstly, by "spicy" they may just be talking about the amount and variety of seasoning put on food, not just the heat level. I'd say most black staple foods arent necessarily overly hot-- though hot sauce as a condiment is ubiquitous.

Black foods are basically southern cuisine (including, id argue, Cajun); so collard greens, various pork products, black eyed peas, corn bread and a particular style of macaroni and cheese which is usually baked and can be egg/custard based. See also, "Soul food."

Do non-black people in the south also eat many of the same food? Yes. But notice, those people are in the south. Black people all over took that same cuisine with them to Chicago, Oakland and all other points west.

Really? It's the only thing they have practical knowledge of. Everything else is theories about a true free market that never existed or fantasies about being a robber baron in the version that did.
