"Sideways", but with bagels.
"Sideways" is such a good movie, and it also demonstrably harmed producers of Merlot in the years after it came out, which I always find darkly hilarious.
I mean... that shouldn't be funny, but honestly, who knew that small Merlot rant would actually make people avoid drinking it?

I spent about 30% of my waking hours preoccupied with thinking about the ethical challenges around climate change, and that's no joke.

Pretty sure I'm not alone in that.
Most of my stress on the ethics of climate change basically comes down to this: how do we balance our own survival as individuals against our moral obligation to ensure the survival of others, including folks we don't know?
I mean, yes, in theory, many of us have the resources to relocate to some part of the world that will be least affected by climate change in the longterm, but most human beings lack those resources. What do we do about that?

These are the 2020 Dem candidates who are consistently polling below the Top Five but from a state with a Republican senator up for reelection:

Bullock (Montana)
Castro (Texas)
Hickenlooper (Colorado)
O'Rourke (Texas)

To be fair, Castro is on the bubble.
Dems have one pretty iffy seat: Jones in Alabama.

GOP has two iffy seats: Colorado and Arizona.

If Dems hold all our seats and take both Colorado and Arizona, we're at 51-49.

If we take either Maine or Texas (big "if"), we're at 50-50 with VP tiebreaker if we win White House.
Sixteen months is a LONG time in a campaign, and things could break our way significantly that would put Maine or even Texas in play.

But not if we're not doing the work and not if we lack leaders who are looking at the big picture instead of personal ambition.

Ok I saw this video again the other night at a party and it's been bothering me ever since. So, a thread about queerness and aesthetics.
Let's set aside the part where TS is maybe queerbaiting folks, maybe making herself the center of a would-be Pride anthem. I'm not arguing with that. It's valid. Let's talk about this: white people with bad teeth holding homophobic protest signs
Natalie Wynn, the best philosopher on the internet, wrote a really good explanation of the difference between an age of reason and one of aesthetics. She argues that we're living in the latter, and her evidence is convincing.

#PrideMonth #AbolishTheRegistry Fact 4:

So far we've seen how the SOR (Sex Offender Registry) is made up of 25% kids and more than 33% persons of color, but what about LGBTQ?

Why -is- this a pride month series?

Turns out the SOR is -also- a tool to attack #LGBTQ persons...
>>>
#PrideMonth #AbolishTheRegistry Fact 4 p1:

To understand how #LGBTQ are put at risk by the SOR, we must first understand "Romeo & Juliet" laws.

In short, R&J laws are a state-decided ruleset that protects teenage couples when one partner becomes an adult before the other.
>>>
#PrideMonth #AbolishTheRegistry Fact 4 p2:

Sounds fair and reasonable, right? I mean, R&J laws exist in half of the US.

Not exactly.

Firstly, consider the name: "Romeo & Juliet".

The law protecting teens from the SOR is named after an iconic cis-gender, straight couple.

Question for folks familiar with #LGBTQ+ research, particularly on life trajectories: A lot of researchers seem obsessed with the notion that childhood gender non-conformity (GNC) is tied to being gay (or in some cases trans) as an adult... #science #psychology #sex #research
While certainly true in some cases, many LGBTQ+ adults were not GNC during childhood. These latter cases are usually ignored/viewed as anomalies, probably b/c they don't fit the "sexual inversion" model (e.g., feminized/masculinized brain) that many researchers still cling to...
...anyway, I'm compiling research/evidence that suggests an alternative model, namely, that GNC children are more likely to recognize&embrace that they are LGBTQ+ earlier in part b/c they behave different from same-assigned-gender peers, receive more scrutiny from adults/peers...

Dr. Cat Pausé
@FOMNZ
After four years without a primary healthcare provider, I finally got a new doctor. This is my story.
Going to the doctor can be very intimidating for fat people. We never know if healthcare providers will treat us with respect, hear our concerns, and see past the size of our bodies.
Will they diagnose us as fat? Make assumptions about our health behaviours? Dismiss what we tell them about our health? Our lifestyles? Our experiences in our fat bodies?
