Elaborating, she continues: 'People say it to me, "And since you're a feminist..." Erm, no. Not really. I love men.

'I grew up with five brothers, and I love men.'

The singing legend, who also grew up with one sister, adds: 'I love men who know who they are and are strong enough to take their place but also strong enough to recognise a woman's strengths and who are able to allow her to exercise those strengths and realise that we are to be partners and not opponents.'

She agrees that 'teamwork' is key, having grown up in a musical environment hersel with her father playing guitar and singing professionally and three of her brothers performing in a gospel quartet.

As someone who grew up before social media, I guess I never realized just how many absolutely fucking horrible, ignorant, racist, evil people lived in this country. Now it's clear... and quite terrifying.

Dear @lintonbesser.bsky.social Would Channel 7's unfactual animation of a bomb blast outside the Great Synagogue in Sydney be regarded as news disinformation, incitement to racial violence or just irresponsible sensationalist tabloid media fear-mongering? #auspol #racism #journalism #abcMediaWatch

"How LEGO lost its innocence and became an arms manufacturer" www.reddit.com/r/HobbyDrama... (r/hobbydrama is just such good reading sometimes, really good modding there)
 As minifigure weapons have proliferated, the minifigures themselves have been getting angrier: in 2013, researchers at New Zealand's University of Canterbury examined 3,655 LEGO figure faces manufactured between 1975 and 2010 and found “the trend is for an increasing proportion of angry faces, with a concomitant reduction in happy faces.” The happy/angry balance has slowly been moving away from the former, and towards the latter.

Three years later, in 2016, the University of Canterbury dove back into the LEGO bin with another study on weapons and concluded the proportion of sets that included weapons increased by an average of 7.6 percent annually, ever since the Yellow Castle broke ground in 1978. There was an average 11.7 percent increase of “nonverbal psychological aggression” which included perceived instances of “forcing, subjection … intimidation, violating one’s human rights … and scorning gestures.” Around 40% of all LEGO catalog pages contained some type of violence, while 30% of currently-available LEGO sets included at least one weapon piece.

A 13-year-old boy stabs a 63-year-old woman working at Coles .. .. and not ONE thing in the entire MSM about “youth crime” connected to it. It appears things like this are only related to “youth crime” when Labor are in power. The media are pathetic RW sycophantic foghorning flogs.

Dear Modern Humans, You thought you were so much smarter than people from the Middle Ages. But you're not. Why do you think the dark ages lasted so long? It was because of greedy, insane despots who crushed progress and dangerous thoughts. It won't end until you rise up and overthrow them all.

Hewitt, Tomic bow out of Australian Open qualifying at the first hurdle
Cruz Hewitt’s conqueror said it best on Tuesday: “Cruz showed up and played very well. He is just 16. I think when I was 16; I was pooping my pants to step out in a grand slam qualifying.”

There are 3.4 million girls 14 and under in England. Elon Musk just wrote that 1 out of every 13 such girls is right now being “systematically raped by migrant gangs.” The man has gone utterly insane. He’s a sociopath. His latest post is—unambiguously—neo-Nazi rhetoric intended to incite violence.
