It seems like it *should* tho right? But it never does.

I do not knooooowwww.

Yes that’s a huge part of it! It feels wrong to throw them away!

You know that move will be so much easier if you’re comfortable! herroom.com (unaffiliated, just a huge fan of never ever going in another dressing room)

KURT VONNEGUT: Oh, she says well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope. I meet a lot of people. And, see some great looking babes. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And, and ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know... And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And, what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And, we're not supposed to dance at all anymore.

*painful solidarity*

Lol literally me.

I am so much better at this than I used to be but there is definitely still room for improvement!

It is surprisingly difficult. There is a hopeful part of me, naive as spring itself, that thinks I can just shove that wire back in and it won’t re-emerge.

It really begs the question of what the jail is doing with them. (Tho I guess they could have a disposal program for all the drugs that show up on people who are jailed??)

Trying to improve my life in a small but effective way by actually taking bras that don’t fit/are beyond repair out of circulation instead of shoving them back in the drawer where they become decoys that must be recognized and bypassed before I can get dressed.

What??

Oh totally. And I would go so far as to say that the social/governmental expectation was a fundamentally white and Christian one.

OK! We’re good.

Right. I would just place the blame for the myth elsewhere.

My essay about the summer of '97, Cat Power, and my metal heart is up on marchxness.com. Vote!

Yes, well, it often wasn’t pretty when they found out. There was a reason for the secrecy. I would say, rather, that the myth persists bc patriarchy must have it so.

The myth that men were the breadwinners was a harmful one in so many ways. It created secrecy and, in many cases, violence.

It was very common.

Yup. And to the point made later in the thread, my grandmother kept people’s books on the sly (she was a math genius but that’s another story) to buy groceries and cover household expenses without my grandfather knowing.

‘Bing’s Cherries’ rewrites the American tall tale through Oregon grower’s life “Bing’s Cherries,” written and illustrated by Taiwanese American authors Livia Blackburne and Julia Kuo, is set for publication on March 10.

Many Americans have heard tales of folk legends Johnny Appleseed and Paul Bunyan. Now, with the publishing of a new book this week, people will also learn of Ah Bing, a larger-than-life horticulturalist who immigrated to Oregon and has a cherry named after him.

The Associated Press reported that an 8-year-old Afghan girl, Razia, was injured when a white phosphorus shell ripped through her home in the Tagab Valley of Kapisa province in June 2009. When she reached the operating room, white powder covered her skin, the oxygen mask on her face started to melt, and flames appeared when doctors attempted to scrape away the dead tissue.

The US used white phosphorus in Afghanistan. Israel used it in Gaza in 2009 and now in Lebanon. From the op-ed linked above—trigger warnings for harm and horror beyond belief.

Still under four here (OR). I think CA has a high gas tax?

He’s having such a great time!
