Crankit posted:I'm not 100% sure I follow, unless it's a joke where you're taking blood as a drug? Anyone with a positive blood type can receive O+ blood, although its also the most common blood type iirc so I don't think it's usually as In Demand for donations? O- is uncommon and also more in demand because it can be received by anyone regardless of blood type. I don't even know what blood type I am though being A Gayer means I'm literally not allowed to donate last I checked so I suppose it doesn't matter, lol bionic vapour boy fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Apr 1, 2020 |

I need someone to explain how the bait and switch works that is not "we hope all the people honking their clown horns about a return to Sensible Electable Centrism are lying and actually are proper leftist". I am willing to accept perhaps it is me who is the dummy here.

Azza Bamboo posted:If you want to prove that an honest attempt at socialism can work, you're free to try elsewhere. After all, if you're not going to vote Labour, why not spin up the TUC or some other offering. No really I want you to explain how the bait and switch works. We fill the shadow cabinet with centrists and then.... what, politely ask them to give the reins to the left post-election?

Azza Bamboo posted:You run people who the CLPs back at the election using the new selection rules and then, should the party ever get a shitload of seats, its parliamentary votes are in the hands of the new blood. If there's anything the years of brexit wank taught us it's that the ministers are losing their grip on the process. And do you expect the centre & right bits of the party to just..... let that happen? "Should the party ever get a shitload of seats" is also uh, doing some heavy lifting here.

jaete posted:I still don't know what "organising around identity" or indeed "identity politics" actually means. It seems that no politician anywhere ever mentions the word "identity", at least not explicitly, and instead "identity politics" or whatever is like a derogatory term? Broadly, identity politics refers to like.... queer rights, feminism, disability rights, etc etc. There is something to be said about liberal identity politics which is very much about putting those identities above class analysis. The best example I can think of would be the stuff around Hillary & Warren? Like, how people acted like their actual policies were essentially not that important because we NEED a WOMAN! I'm a bit spaced out on painkillers currently so I'm not sure how well I'm explaining this lol The flipside though is you get a lot of people who also use the term to suggest that talking about specific issues you face as a member of a disprivileged group is detracting from discussions of class, or is like, ivory tower academic stuff.

radmonger posted:Things went wrong at around the time Marx neglected to coopt some Latin term for ‘housewife’ for the socioeconomic class that does domestic labour on a non-market basis. This is reminding me I never finished reading Marx on the Margins oops I know he definitely developed his views on racism for example but I don't know if there's anything mentioned about women's issues. (Though I guess it doesn't matter that much if Marx did or not, there's been plenty of leftists since who've covered things like social reproduction, unwaged labour etc etc)

Necrothatcher posted:It sucks that it's almost certain that the casual terms we use today will probably be slurs in 50 years. I wouldn't be surprised to see "disabled" become an old-fashioned and offensive term. I've thought the same thing, especially with how averse abled people are to.... actually using the word disabled. I've had well-meaning people like gasp and say "you're not!" as if I'm being self-deprecating when I use it to describe myself

I seem to remember the IDLES vocalist saying something about how he wanted to open conversations with people on the other side politically rather than just preach to the converted (I'm massively paraphrasing but it was something to that effect) which I have to admit doesn't sit that well with me, but like. I certainly wouldn't read that and go "whillikers! what militancy!" like these snotty cambridge wankers are doing. I'm Scum is a banger for all time though I can look past finding them mildly corny at times on the strength of that

A few people on twitter have pointed out that this TERF bullshit could turn over Gillick competence, which is basically what allows kids to have say over their own medical treatment without parental consent/knowledge. So, yknow, to Defend Are Girls they're, uh, stopping them being able to access sexual health clinics.

I do sometimes make the mistake of taking them at their word when really they just want people like me to give up all this boy nonsense and pop out some babies. You know, for feminism.

Josef bugman posted:How does one make a good veggie curry that can be frozen? I've been making veggie Chilli and, although it is not my favourite, it isn't bad. Every couple of weeks I break down a couple heads of cauliflower and roast them with salt and garam masala, then make whatever sauce separately (you can also used a jarred sauce, I personally don't because I'm on an extremely lovely restricted diet). Just stir the veg through once the sauce is done. I try to avoid cooking veg in sauces because it's too easy to overcook them that way imo. As for the sauce if I can't be arsed to make a proper korma or something I'll basically just sweat some onions with a bit of cumin, turmeric and ground coriander for ten minutes or so then chuck in some tinned tomatoes and let it simmer for at least a half hour. Maybe stir a bit of yoghurt or cream into the portion you're about to eat (not the stuff you're freezing, it can break when you reheat it). It's not too different to making a basic chilli in terms of technique, really.

Not me on account of "not having employable skills" but a nonzero amount of my other trans friends are planning to get out of the UK because getting the care we need here is increasingly impossible. I don't say this as a gotcha or as a defense of the way things are now but the characterisation of Brits Abroad as just like, all pink gammons who want to go build Britane 2 somewhere in Magaluf is loving bizarre
