@CaitlinEichorn I’m not in the least surprised. Pre Covid, I never left the mountain without some cold/flu/whatever because people would have FOMO and not care about breathing on each other. It’s entrenched in the culture of the selection process and inability to know if you could return.
@athaydem@lynneedenise As a US citizen, you get the added bonus of paying taxes when you don’t have residence in the country. There are only 2 countries on earth who do that to you. That’s not normal.
@MaryJaneBryksa@joncoopertweets@MalcolmNance Or maybe we should just build bathrooms like they do in Europe with a full door for each stall. JFC. There are architectural solutions if people wanted them, but that’s not what they’re trying to accomplish. The shaming is the point.
@la_incorrect @shireemccarver @GenMhayden We’re giving money to these countries to receive it right back because the USD buttresses the world market. We are literally giving them dollars to complete orders made with their raw materials and selling it back to them.

I prefer my American Maggie thankyouverymuch.
@LeighChadwick5@poetjohncompton Speaking as a poet, if you’ve ever put together a book, a set for a reading, etc.— you wouldn’t tell yourself that all pieces you don’t select aren’t ‘good’. They aren’t working toward the narrative you’re building.
You are doing the same activity in putting together an issue.
@LeighChadwick5@poetjohncompton When you’re curating an issue, you are selecting work that fits together. Often the rejection has nothing to do with what you submitted but that isn’t working with the rest of the issue we’ve curated so far.
We can’t tell you beforehand because we don’t know yet.
@surrenderedflow@scottstanat@tdavispledger@CMcQuade22@saveoursheriff@EdKrassen You literally haven’t opened a single history book and continue to say this over and over as if the repetition makes it true.
The Dixiecrats changed parties after the Civil Rights act of 1964 and that change was completed during the 70’s.
