We have dozens of these giant mushrooms growing in our lawn and flower beds, and they look cool until they melt into piles of slimy shit

What if someone trolled the State of Jefferson folks by trying to co-opt the XX flag as a matriarchy thing

Note that atonement (or rehabilitation) does not compel forgiveness. Forgiveness is an act of grace, an act of discretion. The victim is never wrong to withhold forgiveness. You still have to atone even if you are never forgiven. And rehabilitation, whatever that means, is contingent on atonement.

Keep reading more about the Cornell case and it saddens me that I can reconstruct about 90% of what the guys in that room were saying to create plausible deniability when Jane Doe was trying to reconcile the truth later

If Louis XIV persecuted Native Americans on their page, then he also had to do it on his page. If Anne of Austria was queen regent on her page, she also had to be regent on Louis XIII's page. If English ships carried enslaved Africans on the slavery page, they also did it on the England page, etc.

I used to have a rule on my website that if eg. Edward's expulsion of Jews was important enough to mention on the page on medieval Judaism, then it had to also be on Edward's page. This rule really changed the tone of a lot of pages, I think very much for the better.

Like. I get having baggage that makes it hard to move forward in triangulation with those who have done you harm, I really fucking do. But as a species we are in fact morally obligated to resist backsliding into racial and ethnic prejudice because of said baggage.

“I asked that office to just come to you if they need admin help” Well okay, that’s an Admin discussion. We have our own teams. I’m gonna figure out what’s happening before just taking someone else’s work and potentially making them look bad.

A senior manager at my office advised me not to get involved with helping out an admin assistant at another location bc of internal company politics that might blow back and…no? Fuck that and solidarity forever. I’ll tread carefully but I’m not gonna let someone flounder bc of C-suite drama.

They aren't debating, they are doing propaganda and every time they win, you lose rights. You lose autonomy. You get surveilled. You risk going to prison. The forced birth movement only exists as a function of fascism and it's designed to keep women & girls pregnant, desperate and unable to leave
