@mekkaokereke It’s not women’s fear that’s being exploited. Women who fear making a scene have that fear for very rational reasons. They’ve seen what society does to women who speak up for themselves. What a bad actor in that situation is exploiting is society’s bias against women who defend themselves against exploitation by men, not a characteristic of women.

@AlliFlowers same thing here. Yesterday was 100 the next three or four days should be above 100 with extremely high Midwest humidity.

For those who believe todays music, video games & movies are causing mass shootings:

You are WRONG.

If this was the case it would happen all over the world. Here in Europe we listen to the same music, play the same games & enjoy the same movies but we do not have daily mass shootings because we don’t have the GUNS.

GUNS are WRONG

They say any idiot can run for president. The GOP MAGAts sure seem like the want to prove that.

Jeremy Parker died just after taking hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19, prescribed to him by the anti-vax group America's Frontline Doctors.

just east of the estimated center. https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/p.php?pid=202308211500-KNHC-WTNT43-TCDAT3

I shared this privately before, but I just got the okay to share it in public. The Bluegrass Archive is online with a website and everything. This is a MASSIVE trove of legal live #bluegrass recordings from earliest days right up to now, which you can download and listen to for free. It is one of the greatest achievements of the fan-driven #music archiving community I've ever seen. I contributed a small number of filesets out of the thousands here. #music

Because of the free speech-violating expansion of DeSantis' "Don't Say Gay" law to 12th, I'm banned from calling myself Ms. DePaul in class, and I would rather surgically graft myself to an angry skunk than pretend to be a man just to please the fascists running Florida. Therefore, from now on, all current and former students have permission to call me by my legal first name, Monica.

Transphobic school laws
Ban me being Ms. DePaul
Call me Monica
