Iām saying that you can only dehumanize others and not oneself;
Leigh is EIC of Offworld. If you want an official ābut what about Boing Boingā rank it would be ācontributing editorā or ālady pirate of the pixel seasā, not guest blogger.
The general trend toward more newsy coverage of feminism and racism that I think winds certain folks up, though, is found in many of our recent guest bloggers.
I bet a lot of it is headlines. One in particular really knows how to wind up reactionaries with headlines.

No, that is not true. Not even close. Like a million times not even close. That is such a fallacy my mind is boggled.

I think I want that on a business card, no matter how technically inaccurate it may be in my case.

Thank you! It just wasnāt clear the way you wrote it out. It probably would have made sense had I been able to hear you. 
Again, I appreciate the clarification. I think weāre mostly on the same page.

No snark here either: I have immense respect for you. You have given me solid advice, your observations are spot on and well formed, and I rarely disagree with your conclusions.
(Sometimes though I think one of us should just phone call the other.)

Well, it is easier if you want to have a group chat. I was mostly kidding.
I do wish it were easier to video chat via phone, though, but itās not, is it? That seems a weird thingā¦ you have to use skype or google hangouts or whatever and you must have data or wifi.
I talk about as fast as I type which is way too fast.

It was the text to fb to Skype for one person that cracked me up. Kids these days.
If I get a Snapchat of a Skype ID I might lose my mind.

Thank you for pointing out that CAH is more than crude humor. Iāve only played it a couple times, but even I know better than to think itās just āHUR HUR HUR thatās racist!ā. Maybe it depends on what set you buy how offensive it is, but I didnāt encounter much of that during the games I played, and even if I had, you can easily just make your own cards with whatever you want on them. Itās more about being creative and clever than offensive, and about reading the personalities of your friends and what they find funny. My personal favorite from the game I played was ā________ is a slippery slope that leads to _______ā, which was turned into āOrganized religion is a slippery slope that leads to The Star Wars Holiday Specialā.
