To the people complaining these sex abuse cases have created a world where men now have to think 10 times before they touch a woman. Yes, that's the point. It's called consent. Welcome to human decency.

This summer I was going camping in Big Sur & was a bit chilly so I stopped at a thrift store in Carmel. Grabbed a hoodie for like $20. Last week I met someone with a hoodie that matched mine. Well, I now know that hoodie is apparently a THING. And apparently people pay $200 for trendy hoodies?

Copenhagen doesn't even have the best cycling infrastructure. That honor belongs to Utrecht and other Dutch cities. CPH has lots of car-dominated streets and intersections where cyclists are a bit exposed. But it's an *excellent* example of what could be done rather quickly in plenty of US cities.

This whole entire thread, and… People often conceive of their lives — or rather, often *live* their lives without that reflective remove — as a set of relationships in ways that are imperceptible to the creators of dehumanizing systems. What you get when you actually care and listen to people.

There’s this misconception among men that the only guys who would do something as heinous as what the Cornell frat brothers did are overtly monstrous in their daily lives. Most of the time, though, they’re not. They’re your friends, brothers, neighbors, & classmates. Hold each other accountable.

I was watching some older TV shows like Murder She Wrote and realized we've lost a lot of that "cozy, lived in" vibe in modern TV shows. Everything looks like an HGTV show home instead of grandma's cozy pad with shit from all her adventures

New Zealand makes cervical cancer screenings free for all women aged 25 to 69. Until now, 55% of eligible women paid NZ$35 to over NZ$100 a visit, a cost that hit younger women hardest. The move backs New Zealand’s goal of eliminating cervical cancer by 2040. buff.ly/VWuxtYX #ShareGoodNewsToo

On bi visibility day it’s always a good time to remind people that it wasn’t until 1995 that Newsweek realised bisexuality exists. Though the cover does suggest they think of people who are bi as belonging to some top secret x-files type organisation.

I shared this because it had the main info in the post. But, I’m a firm believer that public health news should NOT be behind a paywall. Other news, sure. You gotta pay the staff, etc. I write for pubs that require subscriptions. But info like this, it should available to all not just subscribers.

When Gloria Steinem co-founded Ms. Magazine in 1972, the honorific “Ms.” was virtually unheard of. Unmarried women were referred to as “Miss [father’s last name]” and married women as “Mrs. [husband’s last name].” “Ms.” was an assertion of individual identity. Women who used it were widely mocked.
