The Enduring Lessons of Wages for Housework Emily Callaci’s history of the international feminist movement examines the influence of their intellectual and political victories.

Shout out to Judge Patricia Millett and the DC court of appeals for also identifying this as a troubling juxtaposition. The Right hate being called Nazis but the US has treated (actual/proven/documented) Holocaust-committing Nazis more humanely than LatAm migrants.

Here's another one: Daniel Ek, CEO of Spotify, has been selling 1.2% of his total holdings every fortnight for the last 4 months. Making $28-37M per sale. Wonder why that's happening? d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-00016399...
