When I taught at an all-boys prep school, we'd do an activity where I had them list every sexual term they could think of. They'd often laugh, as many were absurd things meant for Urban Dictionary. We'd then go through how many terms were violent (~85%) and how many were male-dominant (~90%).

❝ The 'Board of Peace' is more than a modern day colonial endeavor, it’s also a seed for a new form of global governance. If the final blow to a fallible global order was dealt in Palestine, then any attempt at its restoration must begin there as well. ❞ — Noura Erakat • @bostonreview.bsky.social

Exit and Exception
The Board of Peace’s model for governing Palestine reflects designs for a new world order.

I mean, this isn't a recent topic. The Antioch Rules were a joke/debate in the 1980s. There was tons of talk about "date rape," there were lists of risky guys in the Oberlin bathroom, there were Take Back The Night marches with speakouts. It's so grim to feel stuck in this historical loop

“the life goals of dead people” - ozy brennan reading about ways to overcome my fear of people/connecting with people/believing people want me around.
Many people who struggle with excessive guilt subconsciously have goals that look like this:
I don't want to make anyone mad.
I don't want to hurt anyone.
I want to take up less space.
I want to need fewer things.
I don't want my body to have needs.
I don't want to be a burden.
I don't want to fail.
I don't want to make mistakes.
I don't want to break the rules.
I don't want people to laugh at me.
I want to be convenient.
I don't want to have upsetting emotions.
I want to stop having feelings.

There are no US forces in Iraq for the first time in two decades I need people to remember this when some folks say deploying troops to Iran or Yemen will be a six month op.
reuters.com
US forces exit Iraq after two decades, leaving opening for Iran
The departure is celebrated as a victory by Iran and its allies ​who now have deep influence in the country where 4,500 Americans died during more than two decades of war.

b4 I got to college in '93, the folks who graduated just before me did an infamous "rape wall," aka writing the names of rapists in a stall of a women's bathroom of one of the libraries. It sickens me that beyond g-docs (or maybe more anonymous tech??) there literally aren't better protections now.

Kabocha squash is cheaper than sweet potatoes and yams right now, and should continue to be cheaper until after Christmas. If you're making a recipe that usually asks for sweet potatoes, try kabocha instead. It's sooooo creamy! #VeganWizardry

Rising residential school denialism and anti-Indigenous racism have created an environment where white supremacists feel emboldened to target and intimidate First Nations in their communities. It’s disgusting and completely unacceptable.

Half of Obama's own party threw a tantrum over his novel "don't do stupid shit" doctrine in relation to Iran. Trump then immediately tore the JCPOA up to little resistance. The next president did next to nothing to try and revive it and instead spent 3 years begging Saudi to be friends with Israel.

Any analysis of the Iran War that doesn't start and end with the fact that an entire cottage industry of think tankers and lobbyists and their friends in Congress were frothing at the mouth for literal decades for this got exactly what they wanted and it failed immediately and totally is wrong.

I really think that it's coming from an unexamined belief amongst the right but also liberals that some people are less human than others. If you think a Palestinian child is exactly as human as you are, you would be able to think of little else beyond the genocide.

"The greatest contributions to humanity — art, inventions, even products — show evidence of people who got lost in a problem & came out the other side with an idea they would not have found otherwise. That does not happen by taking a shortcut to the center. It happens in the detours." #GiftLink 🎁
This new dynamic worries me, not for the financial implications but for the creative ones. When we reach for the wrong tools too quickly, we eliminate the part of the process where our particular experience and point of view enter the work. I fear that A.I. is undermining what makes us most human — the ability to translate lived experience and nuanced thoughts into a unique point of view, and then to crystallize that perspective into something people can connect with.

when you are a writer & a woman, people always assume you're writing about "womanhood," specifically. like a woman could write a book about frogs, and the reviews would be like, "this is a book about what it's like for women to co-exist with frogs."

How about some sort of mortar-launched drones? Seriously though, fire stations should have motorcycles so they can squeeze through traffic faster than they currently do with their huge fire trucks, when responding to non-fire emergency calls.
