Dictionaries.

Stand by for a discourse on the racist origins of dictionaries...in America.

Stand by for a discourse on the racist origins of dictionaries...in America.

I am not so sure that would fly.....considering some people have their own language and definitions of words, that frankly, I do not fully understand.

Examples are: The Hepster Dictionary, Black People Dictionary and Hillbilly Dickshunairy.....just to name a few.

Not sure if it's still true, but we used to pay tax on 8% of our gross sales or what was reported on credit card slips. Whichever was greater. Save your server $. Tip with cash.

Oh and as for the racist crap, if you receive good service in a place where the wait staff makes less than $3 an hour and pays tax the way I just described and you don't tip at least 15%, you're a cheap bastard, regardless of color. GTF over yourself.

Not sure if that's true. Look at the bill when service compris (typically large parties) - it's a separate item after the tax, I believe.

While this might be a nice thought, as a former server and bartender with 20 years in restaurant business, I can say with near certainty that no server that gets one of these will do anything different with it, compared to any other tip they receive.

Servers will report the bare minimum required by law, and unless they absolutely suck, they will almost always collect more than needed to surpass the minimum.

Most of the taxes I did for folks in that industry had in included in the W2. I don't think I had anyone with unreported tips. And lot of those folks paid very little in income tax, so trying to exclude your ten bucks would fall in the margins of rounding up or down.

If someone left me some weird libertarian coupon, I know where I'd put it.


And are you keeping records of where you leave those and how much you left? Are you leaving a your name, etc.? What's to keep the server from printing a thousand of those and claiming EVERYONE left those? Let's be honest, it's flat out lying and tax evasion.

I issue a 1099 on all the tips I leave so screw all 'y'all trying to get out of paying your fair share.

Although the first recorded dictionaries date back to Sumerian times ..

the oldest known dictionaries were Akkadian Empire cuneiform tablets with bilingual Sumerian–Akkadian wordlists, discovered in Ebla (modern Syria) and dated roughly 2300 BCE

So, yes, they started off unracist BUT THEN...

In 1806, American Noah Webster published his first dictionary

and WHAT EXACTLY was going on in 1806?? Yep, that's right...

It's all so simple yet insidious.

Aren't 1099s only required for amounts over $600?

You must be a big tipper.

"Required".

If you want to do the bare minimum, sure.

Socialist students seek to shut down Jordan Peterson event

The Young Democratic Socialists of America (YDSA) chapter at University of Texas at San Antonio recently shared a petition - which was created by People Over Politics - urging classmates to join the effort to prevent Jordan Peterson from delivering his lecture at the Tobin Center for Performing Arts on October 10 as part of his “12 Rules for Life Tour.”

The petition demands that the Tobin Center cancelled the event and calls for the Center to:

“Commit to scheduling programming that does not discriminate against people on the basis of an individual’s race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran status, disability, familial status, national origin, or age.”

Campus Reform talked with a YDSA officer, who said that the group is opposed to Peterson because:

"they view him as a threat to transgender individuals, but did not specify which of Peterson’s positions the YDSA finds objectionable."

“Peterson uses his platform to reinforce transphobia and gender essentialism historically and in the present moment,” the YDSA member said. “Those have informed government policy and cultural attitudes that enact structural and interpersonal violence against, well, really everyone in our society, but especially the people who are least able to defend themselves. Peterson is either clever enough to see this for himself (and thus malicious) or else not (and thus a fraud).”

The petition claims that Peterson:

"... makes a living promoting conversion therapy and spreading lies about transgender people.

“We have a right to say whatever we want in this country, but I don't think the Tobin Center, which received $100 million in bond money and still receives tax dollars, should be giving this guy a stage to say things that are very harmful to our city," the author of the petition, who happens to be a transgender woman, told The San Antonio Current."

WTF do they think they get to dictate speech either way when tax money is involved? It's clearly NOT a private institution.

Do 'progressives' view gay people as so fragile that they can't co-exist in society? That they have to be segregated from the general population?

If LGBT rooms make gay students feel safe, let’s roll out the rainbow carpet

The University of Sheffield’s LGBT-only housing will give queer students a space to be themselves, not create a ghetto as feared.

the University of Sheffield recently announced that in the next academic year it would provide accommodation for LGBT students that would serve as a “safe space for students to be themselves”. It has received 30 applications for the 12 rooms and vows to offer more designated spaces in the future.

This led to an article in the Times saying the university had been “warned about ghettoising LGBT students”. It seems to forget that gay people for decades have chosen to live in “gaybourhoods” in large cities, not simply to be able to live as their authentic selves, but also to ensure their safety. For many LGBT people, a ghetto is exactly what they are looking for. There are some that even want the queer community to have an independent nation.

And yet Peterson doesn't hold any of these views, nor does he promote any of what they claim.

I guess it's too much to ask for at least one member of YDSA to actually skim through his book before creating this idiotic petition.

At this point I've grown accustomed to the fact that everything I do, say, think, don't do, don't say, don't think, try to say, try to do, try to think, don't try to do, don't try to say, don't try to thing is racist or some form of racism. Every thought that does or does not enter my mind, every action I do or don't take, or could take are all racist or acts of racism.

Now that I've been properly indoctrinated, I am concerned that at some point I might lapse and do, say, think, or don't do, don't say, or don't think something that is not racist. I know it's a long shot, but what if it happens? Is it just an anomaly? Is it indicative of subconscious mind trying too hard to prove I am not racist, thus verifying that I am racist?

I'm worried and I need to know. Which, now that I think about it, is a little racist. When it happens in America.

What do you other racists think? I know . . . I know . . . it's racist to even ask.

Is this some form of cultural appropriation? You're Asian right?
Shouldn't white people scare you like the rest of us? Lol
