McSweeny's being McSweeny's

 

One Upside of the Total Collapse of Civilization Is 

We Don’t Have to Be 

Woke Anymore


of course we will 

still be

woke, since we like it 

and 

somehow think 

it is the only thing 

keeping the lights on 

even though we are (naturally) against 

any practical means 

of making electricity


Euphemism Treadmill

“Sex worker” seems less judgmental than prostitute. That’s the whole reason why we see it being used in place of "prostitute". The people who write, ‘sex worker” don’t want to be seen as judging people who social conservatives would have no problem openly judging. 

It’s not like “sex worker” writers never judge anybody. No, they’re quite willing to judge white, middle aged, heterosexual men, just for being white, middle aged, heterosexual men. It’s almost as if there’s some sociological law akin to conservation of energy, but with being judgmental.
