Also: the elaborate โyou donโt need to thank friendsโ is a ritual, almost code in India & you do need to perform it by saying thanks ๐. Also also: you say โsorryโ when you bump into someone/they bump into you. if you needed to have a life in the uk test, thatโs what should be on it.

The casteism & classism is so clear in this puerile piece - of course you donโt think you should thank deliveroo drivers or bus drivers or maids. โWhy would you thank someone for doing their (โmenialโ) jobโ is caste in action.

The Trump administration is extending the Global Gag Rule beyond abortion to include โdiversity, equity and inclusionโ and โgender ideology" - just how broadly this will be interpreted is unknown but it will further expose and heighten violence towards trans & LGTBQI folks globally.

anyone else have weird explicit/harrass-y e-mails sent to their work e-mail that feels like a sort of social engineering scam but also worried it's something more sinister? (yes, i've reported it to work already...)

Apparently they toyed with it being a musical; it didnโt work but kept the tunes... I donโt think Boss is quite right for the tone & their song picks are questionable (honestly, the use of โIโm on Fireโ is a baffling choice). If you wanted a bit sillier/a musical... go OโBrother, Where Art Thou?

we saw & struggled with it- not only did it miss the political beats, it was very confused about what its message was & what it was attempting to say in this particular political moment. &, I LOVE Springsteen but it just didnโt work here (& like they didnโt understand his music either).

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesnโt matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they arenโt! End of convo.

@thebodyserve.bsky.social were fantastic and on point in the โI said noโ episode- not just on how anti-trans & deeply problematic the stupid Sabalenka/Kyrgios thing is, but ALSO for the deep cut on early tennis twitter & the BS of now big-name tennis โjournosโ. Never forget.
