This made me so sad. And angry. I never would have been able to learn to read this way. These kids are being robbed.
The written word is awe inspiring. So many cultures independently creating complex understandable forms of non-verbal communication. It belongs to everyone and that's why it's resented by the elite. A way to make a quick buck and deprive your lessers of a universal human tool is a win-win to them.
how did i go so long not knowing we were literally teaching people to read wrong. i knew something wasn't right but jesus christ www.apmreports.org/episode/2019...

Recently visited the Glass Flowers at Harvard, a collection of 4,300 extraordinarily realistic glass models of plants crafted by the Blaschkas, a father and son team of sculptors
That’s right, these are all made primarily of GLASS — a fact difficult to accept given how accurate & lifelike they are

So I guess the idea is that Ghislaine Maxwell got transferred to a country club prison that someone with her sentence would never go to and gets all sorts of perks but that’s completely coincidental, that just happened unrelatedly

I do not understand how anyone goes through life without this reality just completely poleaxing them from time to time. I mentioned it to my brother once and he was "fuck Beth, that's grim, you need to go outside" and it's just like "this is outside too!!!" How the fuck do you turn aside???
Following on what @miawong.bsky.social and @riotlinguist.bsky.social and others have said, it's worth repeating that the majority of rape is committed against kids and teenagers (<20yo) obviously mainly girls + mostly by adult/teen cis men. Rape culture is inherently CSA culture!

I'm afraid that all of this is going to be shrugged off and forgotten. I genuinely don't know why I'm seeing people act like any of this is a "gotcha" or that things are going to change. Has that ever actually happened before? Maybe with MeToo but then the backlash came...
Those of us who are SA survivors are used to the mass shrug in response to even the most overt evidence of horrific behavior. Epstein's crimes and the complicity of many influential figures involved have been known for decades (’05 to be exact). It's never mustered much interest or consequence.

when you understand that patriarchy views children as sexual property it all makes sense. there's no hypocrisy. exposure to queerness & transness threatens to "corrupt" the father's property, to "lead them astray" into self-determination, to taint their future sexual value. CSA is permissible as >
Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.

Women’s status is eroding rapidly and dramatically—in employment, in culture, and in the law. But that is not considered important news; what’s considered important news is men’s aggrieved feelings about how we’re not being forced back into the kitchen fast enough.

Kind of crazy that evidence is mounting that the world is run by a group of rapists, pedophiles, and men convinced of women’s inmate natural inferiority, and the pundit class is trying to convince us that the real social crisis is that men are victimized and lonely because women have too many jobs.
You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique
