This white man yelling at two men of color airline employees about his bags has got the whole gate area on edge. Jesus be a Xanax.
“I will never fly your airline again! I need to be home at by fucking 6 and you WILL make that happen.”
Angry White Man: “I want to speak to your supervisor”
Employee: “Sir, I am his supervisor”
Angry White Man pointing finger into Employee chest: “Then I want to speak for YOUR supervisor”

Hi queer folks. Hey straight allies. Have you seen this tiny cute graphic novel? It’s a really simple, sweet introduction to #LBGTQ+ identities that’s perfect for young adults and teens.

simonandschuster.com/books/A-Quick-…
I plan to use it the next time I teach Gender Studies 101 but I’m going to give the copy I’m reading to a gender-questioning teen in my life. It provides definitions, stories & advice on gender expression, coming out, transitioning, etc. The tone is friendly, gentle & supportive.
I wish someone had given me something like this when I was 12/13. If you have a teen or young adult in your life who could use a little introduction to queerness, I highly recommend this book!

The way stock markets have behaved over last 30 months, everyone should learn the following.
1. Debt needs to be zero or negligible

~Almost entire IT sector is debt free
~Almost entire Pharma sector is debt free
~Almost all great companies in Chemicals sector is debt free
~Almost all MNCs are debt free

Find your right conviction
2. Noise should not be ignored especially if it is on company fundamentals.

Research deep on companies or business sectors like Yes Bank, Indiabulls group, ADAG, Financials, Real Estate, Trading, Jewellery to name a few.

#NEW: @aurabogado reports that DHS is farming out children of migrants.
One of those places is Bethany Services in Pennsylvania, about which I have reported.

The US is quietly opening shelters for babies and young kids. One has 12 children and no mothers revealnews.org/article/the-us…
Bethany Services is linked to Betsy DeVos and has been involved in abuses of kids, and has disturbing anti-LGBTQ policies. This is not a good agency for any children to be housed by, but has numerous sites nationally.
Read Aura's piece and her thread. 📌📌📌 This just gets worse and worse.

THREAD on why the new @AfterThePlague1 PNAS paper on sixth-century #plague in Britain is so important, and why we need to pay more attention to the plague in discussions of the early medieval world #medievaltwitter pnas.org/content/early/… 1/10
The reach of the First Pandemic (or Justinianic plague) was massive. First recorded in Egypt in 541AD, it spread rapidly to Byzantium, and then further west, reaching Gaul in 543AD, and Ireland in 544AD. We now know that it reached Britain at the same time too 2/10
In addition to the new evidence from Britain, Y. pestis DNA has also been found in several cemeteries in Bavaria, where there are also no historical records of pestilence. This means that we’re probably seriously underestimating just how much of Europe was affected! 3/10

Hilo.

1930.
Hoy, día 3 de mayo, es el cumpleaños de LUCE IRIGARAY, lingüista y filósofa feminista francesa de origen belga.

Cc @generoenaccion
Está considerada como una de las teóricas fundacionales del pensamiento francés del FEMINISMO DE LA DIFERENCIA.

Siguiendo el discurso analítico sobre ella que hace Luisa Posada Kubissa (véase bibliografía):
“Será sobre todo _Speculum_ el lugar en el que Irigaray teje sus
urdimbres teóricas y arma su artillería crítica contra los discursos filosóficos y psicoanalíticos, que han reducido a la mujer a condición de posibilidad de la imagen y de la reproducción de sí. La mujer vendrá a constituirse así en su deseo por el deseo masculino y será,

LISTEN TO BLACK WOMEN UNLESS YOU WANT TO LOSE slate.com/technology/201…
This article offers proof of a key theory in feminist philosophy known as feminist standpoint theory: minoritized ppl are epistemically privileged bc we have to consider not only our own perspectives but also the perspectives of those more powerful than us, as a matter of safety
In other words, (Black) women will often see things coming that other people miss because those people don’t have to fear for their lives in the same way that Black women do. We know more because we have to.
