Telling people to know their own worth is all well and good, but that's not how we have decided to structure and organize our society. People are deemed to have less worth and value than others, and these judgments have extensive social, political, interpersonal, and material consequences.

After he was outted, he completely abandoned his old accounts, changed his name, and started a new channel that would become way more successful than his previous. When I brought this to leadership, they just told me "I guess he said he didn't do it" and kept him on.

One last thing and then I'm done. In the end none of this is surprises me. Just a handful of years ago I worked at a company who was running a charity campaign and was recruiting influencers. One of them was someone I had had personal connections with until he was outted for sexual assault.

I’ve been a media witness to two federal executions. One was Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. The other, a week later, was a drug kingpin named Juan Raul Garza. My conclusion after watching both men die: The death penalty should not exist. Period. It fixes nothing, and it erodes our souls.

This is also why I hate Jon Hamm. He beat and tortured a freshman in the process of hazing that included dragging him around by his genitals that were looped around the claw of a hammer. The pledge suffered severe injuries and dropped out of school. I can’t get over that

I believe fraternity hazing and military hazing and sports team hazing where men abuse each other is acclimating them into a broader culture of abuse where they will then believe it is their right to abuse other more vulnerable people. It’s so insidious. And that’s also why I think men defend it

At my college a freshman recruit literally died from falling down the stairs after being coerced into drinking too much. Some of his frat “brothers” put off calling the ambulance and by the time someone did it was too late. I often think about him and his poor family

Another thing about fraternities is that the hazing rituals where slightly older young men would physically, mentally emotionally and sometimes even sexually abuse slightly younger young men have always disturbed and upset me greatly. And it’s really telling that I’ve seen men defend those too

Every season of Reacher so far has been great, and I understand that they may be avoiding the earlier novels due to their slightly less standalone nature, but every year I'm sad to learn that next season won't be the book where he kills his way through a white supremacist militia camp.

My favorite book. Fun fact: I had it approved until someone got re-elected.

Hugely important read for anyone with genuine interest in Israel and Palestine. The words in the following image were translated from Hebrew to English via Google Translate. I believe the translation is accurate enough to understand the key points.
Title, in bold: "'Netanyahu Knowingly Transferred Millions to Terrorists' | Storm following the Yedioth Ahronoth investigation"

Introductory paragraph: "The Shin Bet, Military Intelligence, and even Egypt have warned that Qatar is funding Hamas' military wing, and that the funds from it constitute about half of the budget of the terrorist organization's military wing. The prime minister ignored it. The full investigation by Ronen Bergman and Yuval Rubowitz - today on '7 Days' in 'Yedioth Ahronoth'. Eisenkot: 'Netanyahu is in the battle of his life to rewrite history and cover up the truth.' Bennett: 'Netanyahu must be held accountable.' The Prime Minister's Office: 'A Collection of Lies'"

The article had 429 comments when the screenshot was taken.
