Police violently drag Hispanic grandmother across rough ground-injuring both arms. Witnesses yell she has a serious heart condition & was just released from hospital. Cops kneel on her chest anyway. "They dragged her like a doll," brother said. Incident occurred in Batesville, Texas

seeing conservative men debate how to dress online is very funny. can't dress up or wear interesting casualwear bc you've made any visible interest in dress to be a sign of homosexuality. but you feel the need to dress better bc you've linked dress to respectability. a prison of your own making.

Ex-WV police chief violently attacked a woman over an expired registration. Though innocent, she spent five days in jail before the charge was dismissed. He resigned and was decertified.

The lecture was based on the work of Jackson Katz, as described in this article: cafemom.com/lifestyle/21... The list made by the women is in the article too (see below). If anyone can find the video please post a link! (The lecture I remember was not Katz himself, it had a female presenter.)
Men's side of the list:
Nothing.  I don't think about it.

Women's side of the list:
Hold my keys as a potential weapon
Check the backseat before getting in the car
Always carry a cell phone
Don't go jogging at night
Lock the windows when I sleep even on hot nights
Be careful not to drink too much
Never put my drink down and come back to it
Make sure I see my drink being poured
Own a big dog
Carry mace/pepper spray
Have an unlisted number
Have a male voice on my answering machine
Park in well-lit areas
Never use parking garages
Don't get on elevators with a lone man/group of men
Vary my route home from work
Watch what I wear
Don't use highway rest areas
Have and use a home alarm system
Don't wear headphones while jogging
Avoid wooded areas even in the daytime
Never rent first floor apartments
Only go out in groups
Own a firearm
Always meet men for first dates in public places
Make sure to have cab fare
Never make eye contact with men on the street
Make assertive eye contact with men on the street
Make sure my family knows my itinerary
Have extra locks on my doors and windows
Make sure my garage door is closed all the way before I drive away
Make sure the garage door is closed all the way before I get out of my car
Leave outside lights on all night
Lock my car doors as soon as I get in the car

Added note from TBM:
This list is not exhaustive.  Ask women you know and they will easily be able to add more items to this list, such as:

Don't take shortcuts--stay on well traveled streets
Walk near the curb instead of near the buildings
Walk in the street instead of on the sidewalk
Park as close to the building as possible in a parking lot
Park under a light at a parking lot
Make a phone call when walking through deserted areas
Do not open the door for deliveries after dark until the deliveryman has left
Ask for picture ID from utility workers, cable installers, and take a picture of their ID on my phone


I could go on but the alt text box has run out of characters

Then she asks the women, and they fill the entire other half of the board until there is no more space. No matter how much men complain about how cautious they have to be, they will NEVER reach the level of self-protective action the average girl/woman does automatically every single day. /END

I once saw a video where a lecturer asks a group of people to "name something you do every day to protect yourself from sexual assault". First she asks the men & they look at each other as if they don't understand the question, so on the left side of the whiteboard the lecturer writes "nothing". /1

"Signs of Fascism" originated in my town. (Sequim, WA) I filmed it. I remember getting a call, "hey your video got 5,000 views." By the end of the day it had 60K. Over 100K in a few days from just one platform. Then my DM blew up! Everyone wanted to replicate the signs. Nice to see the signs today.

Let me tell you a story about how top-end menswear retail transformed over the last hundred years. 🧵
Fiorinamarietta on Threads writes: "The death of department stores as an EXPERIENCE needs to be studied. You used to be able to buy a dress, have lunch, get your hair done, smell every perfume in existence and leave carrying beautifully wrapped boxes. Shopping used to be an event."
