More Important than Diversity

Cabbage, pillows, scented candles, fluffy slippers, toothpicks.

Here, I just named five in under 20 seconds.

    You didn’t even mention potatoes or sausage or mushrooms or….. salo!!!!!…. what kind of Ukrainian are you, anyway?

    I’ll mention voter ID, secret ballots and a paper trail, along with pasta and coffee.

    1. I’ve been diagnosed with diabetes, so now it’s all cabbage, cabbage, and cabbage. And pillows because I detest slippers of any kind and dislike toothpicks. There’s nothing to pick anyways because it’s all cabbage.

      1. “cabbage, cabbage, and cabbage”

        (mumble mumble) years ago there was a diet fad in Poland built around a cabbage soup that you could eat in unlimited amounts (with other items differing by day… I think you could have two eggs on one day and a couple slices of bread an another….).

        Anyway I tried it and after about five days was jonesing for something baked. I was living in a teacher’s dorm then one night a Swedish neighbor was making cinnamon rolls… and that was the end of my cabbage soup experiment.

  2. I really dislike all this diversity crap, people should be allowed to associate with whoever they want and like what they like without being told it’s racist. Personally, I find that white people who love “diversity” actually want to be the leader and have a bunch of people of color as their followers, if you’re not their follower they hate you.

    My older brother is in the military and further to the right than Genghis Khan, he’s had “tolerant” white liberals call him a “Nazi” because he voted for Trump three times. This is why most of his friends are white rednecks and equally conservative Hispanic people, they understand each other. I get along good with conservatives better as well, in my case they don’t have that condescending attitude that is surprised someone from my background can read and talk at a graduate level and likes very Anglo indie rock. Conservative people just think it’s cool that I majored in history and tell me about new bands I should check out or books they like and treat me like a normal person

  3. “I just named five”

    And of course the group in the picture is not very diverse in any meaningful way. All wearing jeans with similar tops… no one feels the need to cover their face or hair or not touch any of the others because the belong to a different religion or are ritually unclean. That’s just for starters… are there any issues about which the members of this ‘diverse’ group have intractable differences of opinion?
