Small museum? You mean one with fewer resources? That’s what I’d expect. They don’t have the resources to hire a full time person to investigate the provenance of each painting. Doing so is probably a nontrivial task. Hiring an outsider is going to be expensive. And that makes them an easy mark for a forger with…

Excellent article! I would love to see more of these interviews with prominent, but under acknowledged women. Fascinating to learn more about her life and work, and TBH slightly discouraging to see that academia STILL heavily focuses on the individual instead of the team, even in team dominated disciplines.…

You know you’re a bit invested in the Social when you actually dream that you’re reading comments posted on it — and then you wake up and realize there’s no way it could have happened for real because the sun’s still out. . . .

I’m all packed up at my brother’s place for my move into the new place next week. I’m on vacation for the week as well so I can relax before and after. I’m usually a procrastinator about packing but most of my stuff is in storage and I have so little at my brother’s it seemed silly to put it off to last minute. I…

Today I realised why they are named ABBA.

When I was 8, my parents took me to a shoe store and sat me down in the kids in front of the TV while they went to find shoes for themselves. A man started inching towards me from the corner by the TV and I realized he was exposing himself. I got scared and went to find my mom, but was too scared to tell her what was…

My daughter is eleven. Right now she’s at a phase in her life where her friend group is equally boys and girls and she cherishes them all. There are hints of little crushes here and there, but mostly, they’re still kids.

Jesus Christ why are these people not being hounded by the FBI like BLM is? They’re fucking terrifying and definitely dangerous.

This whole “porn is totally Feminist” narrative is so fucking cringeworthy and embarrassing.

Nothing to do with the video but I don’t know if I would hold Pure Taboo up as some feminist ideal. Practically every one of their scenes’ plot is incest incest incest.

I don’t know what to think about this, my ex used to force me to eat and I find this movie fucking disgusting because in a way it’s being normalized by things like this.

Well it really doesn’t matter whether he owns the Pilatus PC-12 FAA reg no. N712BC that he has been regularly seen exiting, in fact that aircraft has always belonged to a holding company - most recently registered with MG Flight Group LLC and bouncing around Florida this month. The point is he has ACCESS to any…

I think if you are willing to approach this subject honestly, it should be obvious that a line must be drawn somewhere. If not, the logic eventually leads to acceptance of a single “open” division between the sexes, effectively extinguishing women’s athletics.

And he would have gotten away with it too if not for those meddling people with brains and basic levels of common sense.

Right, but that doesn’t negate her victim status. When you’re a member of a cult you’re under control of the cult leader - it doesn’t matter if you’re the number 2 or the number 92, they’re all victims.

saying that because the project itself was so exciting, it took him “months” to figure out that he “really didn’t have a story.”

It’s not ‘just’ the affairs, it is that he was having them with actresses who he was in a position of power over. That abuse of power makes it an additional ethical failing beyond the cheating.

Just enough muscles and big unsaggy boobs.

People say that it’s not woke enough. I think they’re not looking at the big picture.
