Slurry tank explosion flings faeces on people and shops in Guangxi.
A headline in the Want China Times.
A slurry tanker containing human waste suddenly burst spraying innocent bystanders and nearby shops in Hechi in southern China’s Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region on Saturday… Several bystanders and the sidewalk beside several shops in the city’s Jichengjiang district [were] covered in faeces while shop signs were slathered in foul slurry.
And yes, there are photos.
And yes, there are photos.
How well you know us.

Disappointing photographs for those of us who enjoy a little excremental humour. You could say that they fall between two stools...

The only important question: Were the feces distributed equally on people of all races, classes and intersectionalities?

Unfortunately for the enthusiastic supporters of the Guangxi area, sometimes the shit really does hit the fan.

I am reasonably certain that the victims were unaccosted as they repaired to their domiciles after the unfortunate event.

The amount of showering that would necessitate to get clean again would probably be in the years range.

Speaking of inundations of shit, I see that the rehabilitation of Johann Hari has started:

Mr Hari strikes me as someone incapable of shame. Just irritation at being rumbled.
Still, he’s lost some weight. So there’s that.

Apparently, #BlackBrunchNYC is a thing.
Protesters go into restaurants where white people are minding their own business eating brunch, raise a ruckus, and then go on Twitter about how racist the white people are for not liking it with such projection like this:
"ATTN WHITE Man, I have no guilt disturbing your brunch. Its YOU that has no right to be here. #blackbrunchnyc"
Or from another self-righteous projecting protestor:
"#BlackBrunchNYC happening now & white fragility is on full display. When confronted with complicity in genocide most whites brains melt"

@Ted S.
I wonder how many of these Maoist consciousness raising sessions would occur in states with Open or Concealed Carry?

Well, I think Elrond Hubbard just won the thread...

Of course, it's just as well they aren't reading out the names of all the black people killed by other black people, because I think the restaurant would be long closed for the night before they'd finished...

I dare say the investigation of who's to blame is under way - but perhaps they're just going through the motions.

This is a very strong example of the ancient adage "Shit happens".
It's reminiscent of the Great Molasses Flood of 1919.

Speaking of microaggressions (and we always are), here's this treat at The Daily Princetonian.
As for one's faith in the future of humanity, the article taketh away and the comment section giveth back.
Also, if you don't differentiate between "wine" and "whine" in your speech, you're ruining the world.
If you differentiate the latter by using a grating falsetto, that works too.

I'm reminded of this commercial.

I believe it was scattered quite equally.
