Which brings me to Stuff White People Like, which lots of people—most, if not all, of them white—sent me all throughout March. if you’re wondering why I never talked about it here, it’s because it really ticks me off and I couldn’t articulate why until Adam put his finger on it, in a conversation with someone else:

me: it’s all over because it’s by white people for white people and it doesn’t challenge them on race

bexns: so white people trying to make fun of themselves?

me: it’s a celebration of whiteness pretending that it’s a critique of whiteness
