the people who spread the “female brains are bad at math and spatial reasoning” lies should be tried at the Hague
Another fun wrinkle from that period (that might still exist): I was good at math and loved it and then my geometry teacher told me that I'd probably struggle because female brains were bad at spatial thinking. I kept loving math & being good at it but assumed that would end so I ended it first.
Those who weren’t resigned to the Math Idiot Garbage Bin as kids may not grasp how much “if you’re bad at math, you’ll die in a ditch and all will be better off for it” sentiment was floating around in the 90s and 2000s, but it sure felt real to me.

Do you have to ingest, inhale, or touch her to activate the toxin? That girl is POISON.

Does she deliver the toxin via bite or sting? That girl is VENOM.

Stay safe out there!

I keep yelling about this every time I see it and I see it A LOT. I yell b/c inaccurate language in headlines irritates me but more especially because:
THE BAD GUYS (gender-neutral) ARE PURPOSELY DECEPTIVE IN USING THE TERM "IMMIGRATION"! THEY'VE BEEN DOING IT FOR YEARS! STOP FUCKING ENABLING IT!
they are not "immigration enforcement efforts" @georgiarecorder.com because they do not target people who have broken immigration laws. They target by race and the turmoil is about violent racism and broader intimidation. Please, update your style guide!

Please stop calling what's being done "immigration tactics" @minnesotareformer.com. First of all, that makes it sound like they're techniques for immigrating. More importantly, it's not about immigration. They are attacking, detaining, and intimidating people regardless of immigration status.

Want to shill for a friend of mine for a moment, if anyone who follows me is up in the Oshawa area and enjoys cookies!

I don't have an instagram account and it won't let me link to specific pictures without one, sadly.

Amber Glenn won Olympic gold on Sunday. That same day, she left social media because of death threats. Her offense: she'd told reporters the queer community is going through "a hard time." The headline called it "backlash." www.readtpa.com/p/the-thresh...
The Threshold
The right used to attack athletes who protested. Now they attack athletes who express feelings at all.

That it was 55% for white evangelicals at the start of the term, despite his first term and everything in between, is extremely damning of that demographic as a whole.

Also, the "extremely/very confident" phrasing is giving me some pause. That suggests there was a "somewhat confident" option too.
% of White evangelicals who are extremely/very confident that Donald Trump acts ethically in office 📉

55% in early 2025
40% in early 2026

and WHAT! could be more FITTING! than someone who CANNOT see something true and real for the sum of its parts, to then turn to a planet-destroying brain-eating huller of dreams, to try and churn out even one iota of what art is!!!

we don't pin children's drawings to the fridge for technical prowess, we do it because of how they make us feel and how the child felt making it!

the lines of the crayons bring joy!!

if you can't understand WHY art is art, WHY people make it, of course you would incorrectly deconstruct its purpose

Listening to my wife coach a junior employee through the whole contract negotiations thing, going over the redlines/additions/etc they just got back for one contract, and some of the exchanges I'm hearing are greatly amusing.

Typo of the Day:

I was talking about Mega Man in a discord and mistyped it as Maga Man. Talk about the hero absolutely *nobody* needs! 😬

(Thankfully I caught it before I hit send, but still funny enough to share~)

Just wanted to remind folks about my cookbook, which has helped a lot of folks who’ve never cooked before. Also has a bunch of information on the components of eating, and will help navigate food aversions.
I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote the food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide COLOR TASTE TEXTURE. It’s useful for all ages, no cooking experience required. My goal is to help kids avoid food related trauma and offer a balm of kindness for anyone who couldn’t escape it.

I don’t know if this will help any of my other neurodivergent peeps, but you know what I’m doing a lot of now? Logic puzzles. The little grids with “Bob has brown hair and killed either the dragon or the kraken, but not on Tuesday” clues. Having to focus so intently shuts up the anxiety for a bit.

Here’s my @thenation.com post on the arrest of Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, the violation of the First Amendment, and Trump’s ongoing attempts to change the face of his victims and spark a race war.
The Trump Administration Arrested Don Lemon Like He Was a Fugitive Slave
Lemon’s arrest is not only a clear violation of the First Amendment but a blatant throwback to the Constitution’s long-discarded Fugitive Slave Clause.

“…Most white people in this country are like most people who eat meat in this country: they want to enjoy a good steak, but they don’t want to go to a slaughterhouse and put a bolt gun in a cow. White people enjoy their privilege, but they don’t exactly want to see how their privilege gets made.”
