It's also so weird to imply that teenagers were signing up for the military en masse because of some kind of patriotic fever and not the fact that they were literally trying to bring back the draft and had army recruiters stationed in public school cafeterias nationwide. bsky.app/profile/slot...

This is such a delusional takeaway. What I remember is the general public being swept into such a jingoistic fervor that you had to put an American flag on your house and your car so you weren't harassed or worse. It was open season on Muslims—and then by extension any other marginalized group.

I like how this looks like a movie about three girls in their 20s who just don't get along but all have to live together after their grandmother leaves them her rambling mansion in her will, with Sarah McLachlan as their kooky aunt who's also the mayor.
Rolling Stone cover picturing Chappell Roan (in pale white porcelain doll makeup), leaning her head on Olivia Rodrigo's shoulder, with Doechii leaning over Olivia's other shoulder. Olivia has a daisy in her mouth. Sarah McLachlan is leaning over them like she's descending from orbit. Headline "How Daisy Chain Made History: Inside Olivia Rodrigo's fun-filled, fundraising festival"

May That Nuclear War Be Cursed! www.wikiart.org/en/maria-primachenk…
"May That Nuclear War Be Cursed!" is a vivid painting by Maria Primachenko, an acclaimed Ukrainian folk artist known for her fantastical beasts and vibrant patterns. This work critiques the threats of modern warfare through its depiction of a surreal, multi-eyed creature in striking hues of pink, green, and orange, capturing the chaos and destructive potential of nuclear conflict.

I speak often about the moral weight of disgust. In this instance of censorship, the president of the university offers no rationale for his decision beyond his revulsion at the story in question. Adults who act this way cannot be permitted to participate in guiding society.

i would never stoop so low as to watch true crime content. what i watch is called true horror, & it's about awful things happening to regular people, like roller coaster accidents, plane crashes, caving/climbing disasters, etc. i MUST know every way to die. it's NOT a maladaptive coping method.

Communism and the civil rights movement both teach us that to build a better future we must accept and learn from the failures of our past. Steinem failed in a profound way: by loving Empire and working to strengthen it.

The reason this viewpoint bugs me so much is it's emblematic of the liberal mindset that having good taste or opinions means you are correct in all things and not susceptible to reactionary thinking. It absolves a lack of self criticism and approves any misconduct as unavoidable.
