          so… i lived at campsites for a while in the middle of nowhere, and it turns out that is just okay. Not really better or worse. Definitely better than some disgusting pit toilet, not just because of the giant stacks of waste that make them smell horrible, but really because of the horrific deodorant perfume they use.

    There is a part in Trevor Noah’s autobiography- born a crime- which is about growing up in apartheid South Africa, where his dad has a restaurant that is special because it has the permits to serve all races: Black, white, “coloured” and “Chinese” aka “none of the above.” It was very unusual, most places were only for one race.

    But the officials got tired of having an unsegregated restaurant so they decreed that even if a place had a permit serve all races together, the bathrooms still had to be segregated.

    Not having space in the restaurant for eight separate restrooms, he closed up shop.
