(1/2) Hi! I'm new to Ayn Rand's ideas, having only recently finished The Fountainhead and Return of the Primitive: The Anti-Industrial Revolution. I have a problem with one of the statements she made in the latter book, specifically her claim that a racist has a right to practice racism on his own property, and that a law that states otherwise is a violation of property rights. In practice, wouldn't this result in some very thorny implications? A direct application of that statement to business
(2/2) would mean that a business owner can refuse to serve someone based on his race or any other arbitrary criteria. And, if we further pursue this "people can practise discrimination on their own property" line of reasoning, doesn't this mean an employer has a right to pay a female employee less than a male employee for doing the same amount of work? In short, building a justification for the practice of discrimination on the bedrock of individual rights is disturbing, to say the least.
Yes, it is their right. Whether or not it makes us uncomfortable has no bearing. But let me say this: in a competitive, capitalist system (irrational forms of) discrimination will always be punished by market forces.
theironduchess reblogged your post and added:
yes, it is perfectly acceptable and grammatical usage, and conveys the “slightly twisted and dark” part effectively :)Â
YAY! thanks again! :D xx

I’m reblogging this because my reply is not short enough for the answer option, I hope you don’t mind!Yes, such a wording certainly exists, and has at least one precedent in literature:
"She was little, an’ kind of chunky an’ huggy, with a pink face an’ great big black eyes, all smeary dark around the edges." — The Reign of Queen Isyl (1903), by Gelett Burgess and Will Irwin.
Though it’s more commonly used to describe paper (“The map was crumpled, and dark around the edges”) or other mundane daily objects:
"Sometimes we get a bed full of beautiful plants ; but at other times the leaves decay and turn dark around the edges.” — The ABC of Strawberry culture, for farmers…
I think it’s fine really as long as it makes sense in the context of the sentence. You could use it to describe abstract objects, e.g.,”The old man’s memory was fuzzy in places, and dark around the edges…”, and it’s still perfectly alright!
thank you thank you thank you! but if i were to use it to describe some kind of slightly twisted and dark love story, would it work? (i wanted to write something along the lines of 'a love that's dark around the edges')Â

89. Name a person you hate?
Viktor

theironduchess replied to your post:Right, so or or ?
NOT CATHERINE THE GREAT. -1 for the double-chin, another -1 for serfdom
I'll take that -1 for serfdom (maybe actually make it -2) willingly, dear. And we shan't talk about the double-chin.
theironduchess replied to your post “u must be even more batshit than i thought. iq's higher than 158 are considered intelligent and gpa's should be at least 3.8 if not 3.9 or even 4. wow u have low expectations.”
how did you get your IQ measured? I've always wanted to do so except I don't know how.
well, i was lucky, i guess, in a weird way, to have gotten the chance. in 6th grade, i wasn't diagnosed yet, and i was having discipline issues at school but all my grades were perfect, so the school paid for a professionally administered iq test. it was a little bit like taking a standardized test except i interacted directly with the proctor. there were all different kinds of questions and stuff, and a few of these weird shape puzzles i had to put together and it was kinda fun actually. but when it came back, the school was kinda like, "she's smart enough, she can deal with it, she's just being difficult" and it didn't really solve anything : /
