Fossa Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Ah, no car, and I live in a dense urban area, where the power lines are under the sidewalks/streets. Have never lost power, so far, wind, rain, snow. And the landlord has somebody to shovel the sidewalk even. All I have to do is make my way to the cozy, neighborhood tavern ; ) These are among the main places that stay open, in a storm. Gotta have your necessities, in the city!

I'm just going to point out that describing 'non-white' races as 'the other races' implies that being white is the default option, which is kind of weird. I appreciate this is probably not what you meant, it just think it sounds odd. Anyway I think there is a caveat, which is that it definitely does make somebody racist if they believe such trends have causes which are intrinsic to race. I also think a lot of people jump to the conclusion that any patterns which exist can automatically explain important issues of unfairness. (I have been guilty of this in the past) For example a lot of people don't mind that black Americans are more likely to be shot by police than white Americans, because they observe that black people are more likely to be convicted of crimes than white people, hence they believe that this explains why they are more likely to get shot by police. However, if you plot police shootings against crime-rate, there isn't any correlation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labeling Sidewalk as white 2. Assuming only whites are complaining about other races not accepting negative facts about their race. 3. looking at said statement as "Whites talking to non whites" instead of it being held as a melting pot definition/statement.

Actually that reminded me of something funny that a friend I have from Singapore said. She said that she thought Europeans are exotic because she thinks we look archaic and possess a prominent 'Neanderthal brow'. East Asians actually tend to possess a higher fraction of DNA from Archaic humans, like Neanderthals and Denisovans, than Europeans do. (of course, she could still be right that Europeans manifest osteological characters that are more archaic than East Asians; I don't know enough about bones to tell if that claim was true- it was just amusing to be told that I was 'Neanderthal like' by somebody who has at least as much Neanderthal ancestry as I do.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lopaw Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Adobe premier > Final Cut Pro As far as I know all the professional video editing programs can easily put out video of quality good enough for YouTube and broadcast TV. However because Final Cut Pro only runs on a a mac apple zealots that make videos automatically hate any of the other editors dispite video rendering being very memory and CPU intensive yet getting a mac with decent specs in those areas will cost a crapton more than a PC built for video production.

Tsuujou Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I actually find orchestra in games to be massively overdone, overrated, and I'm kind of sick of the mindset that it's objectively better than every other music style.

Saxon Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I find it frustrating when I come across stories in which people complement homeless people who refuse charity. I remember reading one such comment in which a man said that he held a homeless man in great respect for refusing a 'handout', because he believed it showed the man was taking personal responsibility for his situation. The social expectation that real men refuse charity is part of the reason that some people become homeless in the first place, so we shouldn't reinforce it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toshabi Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 A homeless person yelled at me today, screaming DON'T TOUCH THE VEST! DO NOT. TOUCH. THE. VEST! I had a lot of respect for him, he is showing me that he can set boundaries and parameters for himself. I gave him a 10 dollar bill and he ended up eating it. That's good fiber. +1! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's better to know these problems and try to fix them than to act like they aren't real. I would agree though I would point out that it might be racist to believe that it's their race/ethnicity that's the reason they have that problem. Saying that "this race has this problem BECAUSE they're this race", instead of just saying that this race tends to have a specific problem that has nothing to do with the race, but that race is usually the ones who have that problem. Focus on the problem not the skin color. For example, say you have a population of a certain race... say, purple-skinned people. And those purple-skinned people mostly live in a certain community/area somewhat isolated and homogeneous, and they do something considered bad, like ritual religious-based cannibalism (purple people eaters?). You might have people who say "purple people are born savages, they will never change, they are all mindless beasts" as if they are genetically inferior even if their genes are the same as every other human. That's racist. The cannibalistic behavior, while specific to those purple-skinned people, has nothing to do with their race or genetics and everything to do with their culture.
