The K-12 treatment of slavery really suffers from an unwillingness and inability to speak openly about rape.
jamellebouie.net jamelle @jamellebouie.net · Aug 19
from chandra manning's wonderful book "what this cruel war was over"
Nothing made slavery’s toxicity more obvious to Union troops than its effect on the fundamental unit of society, the family. For one thing, slave sales separated families. In the Upper South, where many Union soldiers were stationed in 1861, about one in three first marriages was broken by sale, and about half of all slave children were separated from at least one parent. 129 With their own eyes, soldiers saw slavery snap bonds between parents and children. The men of the Seventh Wisconsin were awakened by gunshots one November night. The following day, soldiers “learned, and saw the cause of the alarm in the form of two negro women—a mother and a daughter.” The pair had fled to Union lines to avoid the proposed sale of the “goodlooking” daughter into the so-called fancy trade, which soldiers viewed as a form of concubinage. Outraged by the plight and moved by the vulnerability of the mother and daughter, “every private in the ranks” cursed “that system which tramples on the honor of man, and makes merchandise of the virtue of women,” according to one member of the regiment. 130 When an Iowan encountered a young child about to be sold by her own father, who was also her master, he vowed, “By G–d I’ll fight till hell freezes over and then I’ll cut the ice and fight on.” 131

during the filming of SORCERER, Friedkin's pyrotechnics team couldn't blow up a massive fallen tree for a pivotal scene. Friedkin called back to New Jersey to hire one "Marv the Torch", who flew to the jungle, blasted the whole thing to splinters in a few hours, and flew back

A man brings his creaky dream machine to town, promising feats unimaginable, hopes realized, true bliss attained. The little bones and gristle it shits out go unobserved until the season changes and he moves on.

Last year it was a photo of a photo with a value greater than gold. Non-fungible, even.

A young witch, pulling up several dejected-looking mandrake roots, remarks, “Oh no. They’re all like this! What’s going on?” “Beats me,” the older witch replies, walking off with her broom. “They’re supposed to be screaming!” says the young witch, “Why are they depressed?” The mandragora roots continue to sigh and groan. One of them inflects a sigh with a French article. As the older witch flies off, the younger one yells, “Oh my god, this one’s French. He’s got the ennui!”

Kirby was such a great artist, of course, because he inhaled other comic book artists and gained their abilities.

Polyphemus's Garden. An art installation of eyeball flowers named for the cyclops from The Odyssey. The garden has sat for years beneath an otherwise drab overpass. Went to check on it as there's been heavy road construction nearby and the flowers could use a little love but they're still standing.
Polyphemus Garden. Five artificial flowers on green tube stalks that have plastic eyeballs at their centers. The gardens under current construction. Covered in dirt but still upright.

Off to see the politically charged puppet show the local art cult hosts soon. Might drink some unknowable herbal concoctions after that. Just seems to be what people do up here

A lot of booktook smut is easy to make fun of but generally I think women jerking off is a good and righteous thing. Yet another example of things that are embarrassing also being cool. Lotta complex thoughts to think out there. Be safe. I love you.
