I’d say Razorblade Tears. I gave it 5⭐️ and I don’t trust anyone’s opinion who rated it lower than 4⭐️. Dorian Gray was dense in some parts but good.

Sept reading wrap up, 26 read. The Knight and the Moth was a reread because I’d forgotten most of the details and wanted a refresh for The Knave and the Moon. Erasure by P. Everett was funny and thought provoking. Currently reading Switzy by Cline and Calamity Club 📚 #storygraph #reading #books

New in PN: Retire in peace "McConnell would never be allowed to drive a car, babysit young children, or file his own taxes. Why, then, should a cognitively incapacitated 82-year-old retain one of the most important positions of power within the national government?"

Retire in peace
McConnell is the latest example of an incapacitated politician refusing to let go.

Eventually, so much of the oppressed person’s world is centered around what they’ve been shown, that it would take a great dismantling of their community to change course. So they shut down all conflicting ideas that could make them question “truth” to keep their world view from unraveling.

In Christian Nationalism, white supremacy, and patriarchy, the oppressor withholds information (opposing viewpoints, isolation from other races, financial autonomy) out of fear that with that new information, people will leave. So the ostracism is severe in an “us vs. them” mentality.

But belonging is being threatened when the person with authority sees curiosity as opposition. People begin faking or mirroring the other person’s enthusiasm to “get along”. It’s easy to manipulate these people, because they’ll do almost anything to feel safe. #booksky

… but also how they should feel and think. By making the kids ashamed of their gut inclinations, they make sure the kids always adhere to their way of thinking. This is helpful in controlling ppl inside the church, in patriarchy, and in relationships. People naturally want to belong and feel safe

Therefore their children, in an attempt to prevent their parents from becoming anxious, often suppress any authentic thoughts, feelings, or desires that would disturb their parents’ sense of security. -Parents begin to control not only how their kids should do things …

In Dr. Gibson’s book, she explains how immature, emotional parents fear individuality. A child’s individuality is seen as a threat because it stirs up fears of possible rejection or abandonment. If you think independently, you may criticize them or decide to leave. #booksky

The jury said Elvis Brooks isn't guilty. By pretending he still is, Louisiana's state AG is usurping the authority of the Judicial system. Withholding compensation for a wrongful conviction after the courts have spoken is illegal. And it should get the LA AG disbarred, and so booted.
