A couple things I learned recently after being diagnosed with migraine (vestibular migraine without headaches or nausea so I managed to confuse a bunch of specialists by just getting light headed and falling over). . .

Complicit. Definitely complicit.

Fuck Seth McFarlane and everyone else whose “calling out” is actually wink-wink-nudge-nudge jokes that were part of the “everyone knew” and trivialized the sexual assault going on. It’s a defense mechanism for victims to trivialize what happened to them. When onlookers do it, it adds a layer of protection for the…

Wink wink nudge nudge jokes about someone horrible are not the same thing as calling them out.

The last iPhone I had was a 4S. The screen cracked when it fell off my lap a whole 2/ 1/2 feet. It was in a case too. Bad fucking luck.

My university’s postgrad/tutors room was reclaimed for other purposes and the tutors given a incredibly small office at the very top corner of the building with insufficient desks or heating. The wind blew right through it. It was not convenient. The only thing close to a “lounge” was the Students Union building…

I’ve done a lot of working from home, from thesis writing to preparing for class and marking exams/essays, to having a job with a “virtual office” etc.

I am now really angry on your behalf.

I mean if you just want comfort, you can always go full muumuu.

Holy shit that’s outrageously expensive. I’ve been using essential oils since like the mid ‘90s (with the proviso that like a sane person the main extent of the “remedy” expected is smelling nice and improving mood aside from, tea tree / eucalyptus + steam for congestion & tea tree for acne or rosemary for scalp…

Beauty supply store, health food store, or online shop with good value.

It really does tie in with it. It’s all about power, access, and deliberately silencing women.

I know right? It’s not surprising in the least, but the depth of disgusting that’s just glossed over is stunning.

And everyone. Thurman’s been the target of so much inappropriateness in public, I would not at all be surprised to find she’s been targeted for worse.

There’s a wide gap, though, between physically attacking people and quietly thinking “it couldn’t happen to a nicer person” when someone who has engineered a great deal of physical, monetary, and emotional distress to others — who advocates policies that have directly caused deaths— is physically injured in a tiff…

Ever hear of Punk? Hip Hop? Folk? The IWW’s Little Red Songbook? “We Shall Overcome”? Freedom songs? Protest songs?

Call his bluff for sure. Have him show you exactly what he’s been doing with your toys.

At a guess, this going public made it so that the producers couldn’t ignore complaints about the current work environment. Not a lawyer, but it would make sense that with plausible deniability removed there’d be a good argument for negligence contributing to allowing harassment/assault to continue or fostering a toxic…

It sounds like she accidentally left behind an item on the plane when disembarking, not that she left her bags unattended.
