Oh my. You just made my day, Emory. Suffragist Mallet. With the bonus that you can purchase them in a beautiful crimson red. No need to clean them off afterwards.

Until the day came when an unfortunate misogynist asshole angered the croquet mallet-wielding ladies and ended up getting hammered into human paste. Afterwards of which they giddily chuckled as they sauntered off for their afternoon tea. As the nearby crows swooped in for a homo sapien pâté delight.

That really means a lot, Joanne. You were very consistent in liking my spotlight posts & I can't tell you how much I appreciated that you read them & that they meant something to you.

I learned a lot too. 🇺🇸 has been blessed with amazing women that we never fully appreciated all their contributions.

She would be an strong and interesting candidate. Her extreme expertise has always been in matters of consumer protection, equitable economic opportunity & social safety net stuff. I'd be curious how'd she would manage all the extra work not related to that.

I chose Jennell as a capstone to this spotlighting month as she was an influential person in my life as a TTRPG game enthusiast. I had the honor of meeting her (pre-transition) in 2001 & she kindly gave me helpful industry advice I still use to this day. She passed away in Jan. 2024.

And if the spirit ran into road intersections like this, the spirit would just say "Fuck it" and slurk back into the body.

In mythology and folklore, crossroads are extraordinarily interesting in how they interact with supernatural & liminal phenomenon.

In my fantasy game design work, I use them a lot.

Proud of you, Lauren. Way to bring the fight to that oligarchic technofascist! 💪

Let it be known, the integration of these students entailed a tremendous amount of sacrifice and violence exposure on the part of Ms. Bates & the nine "Little Rock 9" students. It was a tumultuous & ugly time in American history. But without them, 🇺🇸 Civil Rights wouldn't be where it is today.

I'm seeing that 👫 are using this fallacy often to shortcut their arguments & assertions into hopefully forcing people to assume what they're saying is true. It uses false consensus, a cognitive bias where we overestimate the level of agreement people have with our views & perspectives. Not good.

It would be funny if you had them in reverse.

P.S. Who is the nun actor?

Hey MissyDee. I'm still getting educated on this topic from people in these communities. And the debates can get pretty intense. Ultimately though, I always ask how this group of people like to be referred to - and I respectfully comply. But in mixed groups of Latin-🇺🇸's ... that's the complication.

I'm a big fan of your BSky content, Emory. And I'm so sorry to hear about your medical condition. 🙁 Wish I could wave a big gothic healing wand and fix all your woes. Solidarity to you from NJ, USA. ✊

I did Swedish translation of "neck-chopper" and it came out to "hals-hackare".

Every IKEA product needs such an alt-moniker.

When you read this article on Spartz, you realize what a wet dishrag she is.

Also, for someone born in Ukraine, her views on her birth nation are grotesque and willfully ignorant.
