Spelling was not standardized in 1804 when Lewis and Clark set out with the Corps of Discovery to find a route to the Pacific. In the hundreds of pages of all their journals, not once is her name spelled to reflect a J in her name. Her name is Hidatsa for "bird woman." Sakaka -- bird Wea -- woman

i read this post on tumblr shortly after it was made and i've been thinking about it every day since
tumblr post from user "tsarina-anadyomene" which reads as follows:

There's really this strong temptation that everyone has which basically says "to have interiority is to be like me; ordinary people are surface everywhere." And this manifests in different ways in different spaces, and becomes really pronounced when you cluster together with similar people. So tumblr users often act like straight people don't have any interiority because it helps you feel the deepening of social bonds with other gay people. This happens professionally too. I think it was Summer or Sharks who was saying that programming people think that intelligence is just being really good at writing code. Not surprising but very strange to me! I am (equally ridiculously) used to thinking that intelligence is being really good at philosophy, having command of a lot of sources that you can use creatively, etc. This reflects a kind of dynamic on tumblr and reddit. On reddit to have interiority is to be a science guy and on tumblr to have interiority is to be a humanities girl (and the dynamic is gendered in exactly this way). And I think there is something dangerous about habitually regarding other people as automatons. It's good to have people outside of your niche to remind you that other people from different walks of life are quite deep and complicated. They are full of love and fine grained attention to things you never thought to care about. And I think a lot of people go through life thinking of themselves as perpetually victimized by basically empty people rather than having genuine confrontations with full, genuine people who are committed to subtle, complex and real values, who have detailed and intricate histories, and who have a bond to you that you might never quite fully understand. But we rarely even try at understanding these things. We just decide that they're stupid and ridiculous and unreasonable.

My first introduction to this actually real phenomenon was Acerfur. Ever after, whenever an online discussion of Lean gets too technical, I realize every avatar is in a fursuit. COMIC ◆ www.smbc-comics.com/comic/fur PATREON ◆ www.patreon.com/ZachWeinersm... STORE ◆ smbc-store.myshopify.com
5-panel SMBC comic update. Two women talk as they walk on a beach. The first asks "why do people say furries run every IT department?" This leads the second to start a passionate explanation over 4 panels, where she states: "that’s an outdated stereotype. The internet is indeed sustained by furries, but your modern furry is also the core user of automated proof solvers tied to machine learning. Furries don’t just run IT. They run math itself. Soon we will open nature’s book, written in the language of god, and only the furries will know how to read!" After the speech, the first woman reacts by saying "woof," as an expression similar to "yikes" or "wow," and the second woman responds "precisely," associating it with the sound of an animal.

1/x Just FYI, for those who didn't know: The first head-on challenge to the US gov't's authority to ban queer marriage was in 1970. Less than 1 year after Stonewall, on May 8, 1970, James McConnell and Richard Baker got hitched and then, presumably, went home and boinked their brains out.

The image is a five panel black and white comic. 

Panel 1- A person stands with their hands on their hips in front of a pile of opened boxes filled with items. "Hmmm"

Panel 2- Tiredly they say, "Eh...I can deal with this when I'm not tired..."

Panel 3- We see the pile of boxes again. "Yeah.."

Panel 4- "38 consecutive days of being tired later" We see them again, looking gaunt and exhausted, face in the shadow.

Panel 5- They stand in front of the pile of boxes which have been untouched.

I've said it before, & I'll say it again & again: When people have their first epistemic & ontological shocks— those shocks to what they thought they knew & thought was real— you have to guide them CAREFULLY to get them to move *Toward* prosocial consensus reality & *AWAY* from, e.g., conspiracism.
Screenshot of two tumblr posts:

Tumblr user tpwrtrmnky:
A lot of the time when I point out that some right-wing policy is proven to not achieve the thing it purports to have as a goal, people rightly point out that the real goal is the negative outcomes that do happen.
Which is correct!
But this is often framed as me approaching the right wing naively by the respondent.
That's not the case at all. I know they're evil. The goal is to demonstrate that they're lying by exposing the way the rhetoric fails to line up with reality.
This has to be ongoing work because someone new has their political awakening every day. Every day, someone needs to learn that the right wing position is wrong on all levels, not just the obvious ones.
Tumblr user realflaminglily:
there will be people out there who still think the war on drugs (as the absolute first thing that comes to mind) is a legitimate social cause against an antisocial blight on society. if you come out the gate with (the very true statement) that it's actually been a deliberate campaign to target minorities and other undesirable groups to the ruling class, you're going to sound like a clueless conspiracy nut
whereas if you come with a very defensible, statistically supported point of "it doesn't work and has never worked" you can open the door to the follow up question of "why did the government do it in the first place, and (in many cases) why are they still doing it?"

“And for adults, the world of fantasy books returns to us the great words of power which, in order to be tamed, we have excised from our adult vocabularies. These words are the pornography of innocence, words which adults no longer use with other adults, and so we laugh at them and consign them to the nursery, fear masking as cynicism. These are the words that were forged in the earth, air, fire, and water of human existence, and the words are:

“Love. Hate. Good. Evil. Courage. Honor. Truth.

A story I love about Anthony Stewart Head. Thank you to this person for sharing it on Tumblr. What a mensch.
A photo of Tony Head with a fan, standing in a barn near a horse. Tumblr post from dracofidus: If you EVER think Anthony Head is anything less than an angel then you'd best remember that I have always been a huge fan of his and we've always had a little contact over the years and he heard I'd come out as Trans and was having a hard time and that I was kind of sad that the photos I had from conventions with him were of me with long hair and no binder and they were all signed to "Sarah" and so he invited me to spend the day with him at his farm and he picked me up from the station and we just hung out and had lunch and he insisted on paying and look loads of photos and had them printed on photo paper the same day so he could sign them to Jay, along with other photos of him as Giles and Utger and he literally spent five hours chatting with me and got all the pronoun stuff right every time and then he dropped me off at the station, gave me a massive hug. Waved me through the ticket barrier and insisted I message him when I got home so he knew I was back safe.

"The stepchildren of nature"
My motive was humanitarian. My aim was to save thousands of innocent stepchildren of Nature
from an aggregate of tens of thousands of years in
prison, and bring about a repeal of the laws under
which they are incarcerated and which are still in the
codes because civilized man has not yet entirely
emerged from the prejudice and superstition of the
Dark Ages. My second aim was to put a stop to the
continuous string of murders of these stepchildren, the
assassins laboring under the delusion that homosexuality is due to deepest moral depravity, and feeling
that they are mandatories of society in ridding the
world of these "monsters." My third aim was to save hundreds of these superlatively melancholy sexual in- termediates from suicide as the result of bitter persecution by those who pride themselves on the fact that
in their own case, sex has been thoroughly differ- entiated.
