This is good about how toxic masculinity ignores the realities of everyday life. Also very important, what we teach our boys about what it means to be a man. www.salon.com/2026/08/28/t...

This Reflecting Pool fiasco is wearing me out. From the WH skirting Congress to fund it, to the sheer audacity of an ill conceived vanity project that fails to consider the practical implications of design. Now the administration blaming people for vandalism for securing a scrap of peeling paint?

We, the women of one country, will be too tender of those of another country to allow our sons to be trained to injure theirs. From the bosom of the devastated Earth a voice goes up with our own. It says: “Disarm! Disarm! The sword of murder is not the balance of justice.” - Julia Ward Howe, 1870

I showed this graph in class yesterday on how measles cases in the United States plummeted dramatically after the vaccine was licensed in 1963. It’s not subtle and I could not resist observing: “This stunning design in measles cases was not thanks to vitamin A. It was not due to beef tallow.”
