good, productive feminism explains that gender isn't innate and the patriarchy can be deconstructed; essentially telling young women that all men are creeps and predators and will never change is actually just weirdly reactionary and purposeless
the weirdest part about shit like this is that the actual facts are awful enough that you don't need to embellish like this, like 1000 is also really bad!
Sometimes....if you don't carefully comb out your bangs while they're still wet from the shower....your wavy hair will exist in the most horrendous shapes for the next 48 hours 😔
It is tempting to treat Shamar Elkins’s actions as the isolated incident of a madman. But poor mental health is never a reasonable explanation for attempting to execute one’s wife and children. Patriarchy offers a better explanation.
What *is* currently accurate is that at least ten states (as of right now) won't prosecute spousal/intimate partner rape if the victim was unconscious, drugged, or otherwise incapacitated. Closing those legal loopholes could be done right now, if there was the will at the state level.
imagine a contemporary legal thriller having the courage to do what The Firm did in 1993.
With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.
We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.
Please stand by for more.
this is important to get your head around the basic shape of water use out West. farmers get the overwhelming majority of it--far more than all industry and cities put together--and pay almost nothing for it
BREAKING: “I made a mistake, and I am sincerely sorry,” Philz Coffee CEO said after having ordered Pride flags removed.

talk to a boomer long enough and they'll reveal some absolutely wacko nutrition truism based on a 1975 cereal ad
damn, dark as shit
Like I just want to spend too much money on a NYRB book with a fun cover that I could easily put on hold at the library...why are you punishing me....
Went to the aggressively branded Books By Women bookstore and they 1) didn't have the mainstream-NYT-reviewed-new book-by-a-woman-I-wanted 2) had the Ben Lerner book instead 3) In their "cheap paperbacks" section, they had one of famous 1970's homophobe Anita Bryant's autobiographies. LMAO!
It’s nice that we’re recasting the U.S. Senate as a finishing school for wayward 41-year-olds who should

All About Eve, but it’s a writer and an LLM trained on the writer’s work.
what a country lol. if you are bravely hopping between cities for the tournament (assuming you have enough money for tickets but somehow not enough for transport?), you have to figure out bespoke transit plans for each city defector.com/world-cup-tr...
Wait the nyt is publishing LLM slop now?

Got asked an ideology question during my talk at Chicago and shared that my first question is always "Which viewpoints are y'all looking for? Folks who say I'm not human because I'm Black?"
Say it with your whole chest.

ConservatIves used to call these kids sinners. And they’d punish them for being pregnant young. Surreal how they change once racist eugenics are what is valued.
Resharing since Katie Miller keeps creepily posting about teen pregnancy rates
Why is it that the most vocal cheerleaders of generative A.I. are always the hackiest motherfreakers around? You expect studio executives to say things like “it’s going to revolutionize content,” and “from a bottom-line standpoint it’s inevitable,” and “I’ve finally found an instrument as cold and empty as myself,” but you’d hope that an artist would have more self-respect.
of course you CAN use AI to "write" your book but you run the risk of a lethally derisive colson whitehead materializing in your office to call you a hacky motherfreaker

"Someone tried to strangle Sneako", "Clavicular just had a drug overdose", I refuse to believe that understanding any of these headlines is better for me than chain-smoking
Texas' only licensed Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu legal interpreter is now languishing in a Raymondville detention center. She’s lived in America for 35 years: www.texasobserver.org/immigration-...
Nothing says "America is Back Baby!" like "Allbirds became an AI hardware middleman because they wanted to pump their stock instead of going into bankruptcy, so they said they will find some computer chips somewhere, but can no longer sell shoes."
So the big studios are abandoning the US and turning the staff workers into contractors to get out paying for healthcare.
The United States is losing one of its defining industries because of not having universal healthcare and the people are going to be even more vulnerable to the industry.
Again, this story isn’t going away!!!
