@TheRuralProgressive yep, am aware. Tried vpn. Wondering if a UK-er can reach that video or it's truly been removed.

Can someone in the UK check this link please? I wonder if it's geo-fenced or something. The page loads for me but says "This programme is not currently available"
TIA

What a special co-interview with Flea and Kae Tempest.
Interesting pairing.

Kae typically dislikes being interviewed.

Haven't heard Flea talk this much.

@sjvn She also has a previous tiny desk (to the one you posted). Note well: sings the _saddest_ song. You will be made sad.

@HereticTheoretician
But race isn't species. Human is equally hard to define and will get fuzzier as we augment and clone ourselves. Just subbing in another useless term.

Ethnicity is what they were after, and I don't think that's useful either except to document our inequities.

Let's focus on inequity instead of perceived variations?

Well I'm still going to put down "human" on forms.

National Academies: We can’t define “race,” so stop using it in science.

Use scientifically relevant descriptions, not outdated social ideas.

I loved Craig Claiborne, really did but his shrimp and grits "revelation" was... offensive.

Everything goes in grits, anyone who actually eats em knows this. Shrimp ain't fancy and anyway don't try to make grits fancy.

Food gentrification, sheesh.

11 hours and 59 minutes of daylight today.

Should be enough.

Still tough stuff.

@LiberalLibrarian Know that feeling.
