I make corsets - for fun*, not commercially, and there’s a biiiiig difference between the types of corsetry and what we see on the big screen. Stays practically change nothing but give fantastic support - short stays are essentially long line bras and with luscious breasts that support is desperately needed. My…

Yes, some do. Jackie French did an adorable Bridget Jonesesque Diary of a Wombat that details trials and travails of wombat owners.

Never heard of wombat related human fatalities but they bash foxes to death with their arses. It’s how you identify a wombat hole: Fox skeletons.

In year 10 Australian History, schools need to do a pop culture unit.

I’m also waiting for something about Margaret Atwood’s shameful open letter.

It’s great it turned out this way but:

Yes. There seems to be real confusion here between getting a job to get a little independence, and working at toilet polisher to somehow work your way up to CEO via the hustle.

You are shocked you got as far as you did, but where there’s a will there’s a way?

Marasai’s answered that but also... they will use their asses to crush animals that threaten them. Wombats can fend off foxes with their militant booty action.

Nah, I’m in the greys and uploaded a PHOTO OF A GHOST.

It’s not scary, buuuuut:

Possibly? I’m sorry; I’m not much help here. I’m also wondering if there are some that are hacked versions of other posters I’ve followed for a long time and now I’ve returned they’re suddenly all into sex shaming. Either that, or I never noticed their nastiness. I follow like, 30 people so that’s not likely. :(

No. They were posting at the same time and liked/being liked by someone who was posting rape threats to someone at the top of this thread. I don’t remember who/what it was exactly, but something along the lines of ‘I’ll wrap my ____ around your ____ and ____ you, ______.’ etc. Edited out words so it’s more palatable,…

I flagged ‘em last night, too. I haven’t been here for months and am barely active, but I went into the pending posts and flagged literal rape threats that were supporting this pos so it looks like their crap about ‘consent’ is a mask. They don’t give a damn, and they benefit from a world where consent isn’t…

Well, it’d be more accurate to say that the novel is only as old as Romance Fiction and point out that NYT is REALLY behind the times right now.

Murasaki and Sei Shōnagon were not writing in a vacuum of fiction!

Sorry for the late reply but I honestly do not know how to translate this - I think you might call them joggers?

Female friends have been called out for not dressing ‘corporate casual’ while NO male colleagues were dresses as such. It seems only men can be professional in schools. I know I’m going to get called out one day soon and plan to wear my husband’s suit the next day...

I assure you, teachers are having these debates with teachers as well. I REFUSE to discuss leggings with my students as long as the dress code allows ‘tracky daks’ and yet I’m called unprofessional.

But she IS more an arbiter of taste. She knows what an ANALOGY is. /s

There’s so much ignorance about the very good resources avaliable that show teachers how to teach these things well, ignorance about the importance of history and the difficulty in teaching empathy.
