This is it! The place! For what you want! How you want! Good linking! Self linking! Crap that’s been moved from other threads where it was off-topic! It’s all here! I’m so excited!<\/p>\n

My vacation continues, by the way. It keeps on snowing and looking very pretty, but it isn’t sticking. But the fire is warm and I feel terribly relaxed. Unsurprisingly, there will be fewer links than usual in this link farm.<\/p>\n

  1. White people policing young white men who dress “too” “black”<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Damn, I miss Hilzoy. Read her response<\/a> to the argument that it’s a good idea for the US to invade other countries to “liberate” the residents. “Saying that the problem is that we lack the wisdom and virtue to do this is like saying that the problem with the USSR in the 30s was that Stalin was not sufficiently wise and virtuous to really make totalitarianism work for the people of Russia.”<\/li>\n
  3. Gender Presentation, Disability and Intersections<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. A bit of perspective<\/a>: July 1863 rioting in New York City.<\/li>\n
  5. What’s wrong with saying<\/a> that Donny Osmund is Blacker Than Michael Steele. (Click through to Global Comment<\/a> to read the whole thing.)<\/li>\n
  6. The increasing meaninglessness of the term “Anti-Israel”<\/a><\/li>\n
  7. Why Huckabee can’t win the Republican primary<\/a> — and why whoever beats him can’t win the general.<\/li>\n
  8. On the subject of “useful” advice given to disabled people<\/a><\/li>\n
  9. Reappropriate examines anti-Asian bias in college admissions: Part 1<\/a>, Part 2<\/a>. While you’re there, check out the spiffy new superhero-themed blog header.<\/li>\n
  10. Is getting rid of lead paint empirically the most successful anti-crime policy of all time<\/a>? (And see here<\/a>, as well.)<\/li>\n
  11. Fat people are underrepresented as governors<\/a>. I liked the word “Flintstonian.”<\/li>\n
  12. Schrodinger’s Rapist<\/a>. “When you approach me in public, you are Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s Rapist. You may or may not be a man who would commit rape.”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
