Perhaps it’s time to talk about black male incels. We didn’t really have the language for the kind of misogynoir we’ve always seen, but the dudes who call you a “bitch” after you turn them down, the kind of men who claim your success is the reason why you won’t date them, and the kind of men who try to neg you and manipulate you

At some point, we have to talk about the fact that, in what is consistently touted as a thriving economy, the key concern w/closing schools b/c of COVID-19 is “children who rely on school food won’t get to eat.”

If the economy
Is so great, why aren’t the babies eating? It’s hard enough for communities to make sound decisions on public health and safety with disinformation and scarce media literacy.

But this singular economic focus on “the markets” instead of the wellbeing of the public is gaslighting us into bad decisions, too.

True story: this happened to us.

I thought I was being responsible by not downloading the big 3 that I knew had chat functions, but then I downloaded War Wings without checking for a chat…

…the predator immediately suggested my teen move their talks to Discord. I have her device parental controlled to the gods, so I didn’t download discord nor could she access the web version… but she could once she gained access on one of her peers’ phones. And then all hell broke loose.

I cannot believe I just watched a table full of white people on Morning Joe talk about how words don’t have the power to hurt.

Bari Weiss said ‘we’re all fascists now,’ and then someone unironically said “the problem with calling people who don’t deserve it fascists is…” These people don’t understand. It’s not the FEELINGS that we care about.

It’s what happens when those WORDS connect people who feel the same way with POLITICIANS who feel the same way (or those will pretend for long enough to gain power) who turn FEELINGS into harmful policy.
