So, I get this blurb sent to me about a student being found dead at Mayo hall. No foul play but notifying parents. But I'm reading on my phone on the turlet this morning and I go down a worm hole from the site. I din't copy and paste and I'm not going to look for it, but a professor from MSU just wrote a paper on "White people who do yoga are racists". Yep, that's what her paper was. Because in America the whites who are doing yoga don't know the history of why yoga came about from India and whatever. I only say that here because I wish I had linked her and how fucking goofy her paper was. and how goofy those pictures look.

America is a stupid country.

I don't do yoga.

me neither.

my wife does - in fact, she was doing yoga this morning when I left to go running.

she always asks me "you wanna do yoga with me" and I try not to react with a 'wtf you talkin' 'bout, yoga?' - instead, I just politely decline. She's a good sport about it.

Tomorrow morning just walk by her and say "Racist" and go on your jog. Don't explain.

pretty funny.

the difference is, though, that you and I (I assume you're kinda like this) see this report and go 'yeah, okay.. whatever' and go on about our day.

other more fragile types get incensed and demand apologies, retractions, etc. I guess some folks are always looking for something to be offended by.

It's fine for an academic to have a mental exercise of "are white people doing yoga contributing to white supremacy?" and discuss it with her students, and even throw up some stats, but.... fuck. Without reading the paper (because why would I?) smdh. They need to know better.

they should assign the scientist - Ivanka Trump, PhD - to study the social dynamic.

Is the pic not showing up for anyone else? I’m pretty sure I know what pic was posted from reading the news, but nothing shows up in my end.

in her defense, maybe Ivanka Trump, PhD., is trying to determine who her father is?
