New Puppy Journey
This thread is dedicated to the shared journey of new puppy, old puppy, and I.
Day 1.
Drive to pickup: I cannot think of a name. She needs a cool name. Ah, I got it!
“The African Studies section of UCT’s Main Library is on fire. Some of the oldest and rarest books about Africa were stored here.
This is a very sad day for this country, for Africa and the world.”
Please be very careful and try to notice when this is happening and not take part. We have to fight for the distinction between good-faith criticism of a person’s words vs. the perverse character assassination that often goes on here.
If you tweeted something in rage or anguish this week, & you’re not doing any work against the PIC, you may find useful @prisonculture’s offer of 9 commitments to make in 2021: https://t.co/foGh4pd1tu, which focus on material support for incarcerated people & political education.
I'm only here to say as a *clears throat* POC that Lindsay Ellis's latest video, Mask Off, is great and people who were talking shit - especially white leftists - should definitely watch cause... she made points yall need to hear. Badly. Yall need to hear them badly.
The valid reason being that for all the talk around being essential, the gov/corps/instiutions/etc can't seem to find the money to pay us right. The gov should be pulling supplemental pay for us as well.
It's not an either/or situation, it's a both/and.
@layne_ransom So you didn't think it was safe, you just wanted to share your feelings. Got it.
Wanting to share your feelings is not a reason for unsolicited baggage dumping. Just because it's the internet doesnt mean it's safe or ok to do it.
You ever think about Brokeback Mountain being culturally reduced to its sex scene and the Oscars making jokes about porn while introducing Carol and making fun of the handjob scene in Moonlight and how The Most Progressive People In The World see LGBT cinema as a sex joke
He drove around to stores in smaller communities and cleared the shelves. He claims his hoarding and price gouging is him doing a public service.
ROB. HIM. Make him run those supplies then redistribute them to communities he hoarded them from.
@Writezealot @planetjiminie @idfcvelvets @hoetentiial Choosing not to date a person with a penis is not the same statement as not wanting to date any trans people, which is how this tweet starts off. One is an aversion to specific genitals (at best), and the other is straight up transphobia/anti-trans.
@ColoredTrees@postpunk01 @CisKingDio @tatianakeita @hoetentiial People have done this in several articles already, if you Google. It's not only transphobic, it's based on false knowledge and an insufficient model of sex and gender.
this is so heart warming. She was married to a Ghanaian man and it took them some time but they really came around to accepting their Trans son.
And the dad became a teacher
