@brockm.bsky.social: Any other leftists want to challenge me on this notion that we should welcome Republican defectors? I'm quite hungry to humiliate you, and demonstrate to all the world's wary inhabitants what a worthless troll you are. ‪@lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com‬: hi, sorry, not sure i follow. could you rephrase this but in an even more embarrassing way for an adult to talk ‪@brockm.bsky.social‬: Your stupid little status-dominance game isn't going to work on me. @lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com‬ perfect thanks

“WITCH WILL CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE WEEK”

“To say that straight men are heterosexual is only to say that they engage in sex fucking exclusively with the other sex, i.e., women). All or almost all of that which pertains to love, most straight men reserve exclusively for other men. The people whom they admire, respect, adore, revere, honor, whom they imitate, idolize, and form profound attachments to, whom they are willing to teach and from whom they are willing to learn, and whose respect, admiration, recognition, honor, reverence and love they desire... those are, overwhelmingly, other men. In their relations with women, what passes for respect is kindness, generosity or paternalism; what passes for honor is removal to the pedestal. From women they want devotion, service and sex. Heterosexual male culture is homoerotic; it is man-loving.” Marilyn Frye, The Politics of Reality: Essays in Feminist Theory

I always love an excuse to pull out one of my favorite quotes about men like this, and I’d like to add that someone else recently taught me another word for this general theory: homosociality

In an Intense Election Year, New Post Office Rules Could Trip Up Voter Registration A change in how mail is postmarked could lead some voters to miss key deadlines, including voter registration. Advocates worry the people most affected will be those already facing voting barriers.

“Any mail that’s getting dropped into a blue box is not getting postmarked on the same day, and likely not on the day after either,” says the leader of a postal workers’ union.

This could have tremendous implications for voting:

I haven't finished reading this (pretty long, baby naps are limiting) but even though I've read a good deal of stuff about antisemitism and the history of racism in America, reading a Black perspective of modern antisemitism is *really* educational. This piece is excellent. Please check it out!

ICE and CBP’s Face-Recognition App Can’t Actually Verify Who People Are ICE has used Mobile Fortify to identify immigrants and citizens alike over 100,000 times, by one estimate. It wasn't built to work like that—and only got approved after DHS abandoned its own privacy r...

NEW: Records reviewed by WIRED show DHS’s facial recognition app (Mobile Fortify) isn’t designed to actually "verify" identity—despite DHS claims and its agents relying on its matches to support probable cause in the field.

Hello Professor Sell, I hope this email finds you well. I just wanted to say thank yo ufor calling a learning 'disability' a learning 'challenge.' It may not seem like a big deal to you but as someone who has struggled with a learning disability for more than half their life and was diagnosed in 5th grade, I always felt ashamed or dumb as it ibeing viewed as a disability. Although there is nothing wrong with being disabled, I just had felt like that wasn't the correct terminology to use. Thank you again for just making it seem like school is more viewed as challenging for me rather than viewing it as a disability. That one-word change really switched my perspective, and I will continue to use it through the rest of my education. Thank you again!

crazy etymology

I think about this a lot: the fact that it's "inconceivable" is a HUGE part of the problem. Hey folks: conceive of it. That's the necessary first step. This fascism is in fact happening, and the whole "I can't imagine" part is stopping a lot of progress in overcoming it.

Letter from a Birmingham Jail - Martin Luther King Jr. YouTube video by Justin Ashurst

"You deplore the demonstrations that are presently taking place in Birmingham. But I am sorry that your statement did not express
a similar concern for the conditions that brought the demonstrations into being."

MLK was only 39 when he was killed. Growing up, I thought that was old. But I’m 43 now and I’m stunned by the burden he shouldered at such a young age. I’m also a lot more aware of how hard it is, at any age, to carry the hopes and dreams of an oppressed people on your shoulders, as so many do.
