Cooking show I desperately want: Professional chefs compete to wow and astound totally amateur food critics who don’t know dick about shit. Get eliminated on totally arbitrary grounds such as “I don’t like sour cream.”

‘Its creme fraise’
Whatever it is I don’t like it

the removal of replies has really hampered the natural communication on this website

a reply was like me walking past you on the sidewalk as you water your flowers next to your porch and i go “nice flowers!” and you say “thanks!” and we go about our days

now i walk past your flowers and i can either walk up to you and stop you from doing what you’re doing to tell you that you have nice flowers, or i use my cell phone to call you and tell you the flowers are looking nice while we stare each other down, you in your front yard, me on the sidewalk

I still don’t think female and male are opposite sexes. They are definitely two different, distinct sexes. That’s biology. But opposite? That’s cultural. That’s patriarchal. That’s an interpretation of facts, facts arranged into a hierarchy and forced into dualisms. To call female and male opposites is to gender biology. It reeks of Descartian and Freudian thought, but it has as little to do with reality as the trope that somehow positions cats and dogs as each others’ opposites.

probably one of the most insightful things I’ve ever read on this site.
