Anybody else think that it’s especially ironic that the Administration chose Juneteenth as the day to pull out of the Human Rights’ Commission?

No one ever mourns the loss of women who are killed or traumatized by abusive men. No one talks about the potential they had for growth. They are just throwaways, they were never going to achieve anything, but men are always given the benefit of the doubt. They always have infinite potential. Men have to do so little…

I’ve been conflicted.

Last post of this kind, today, I promise.

HOW YOU CAN HELP.

This is so important. As a bi woman, my heart always sinks when a formerly out and proud bi celebrity says “I used bisexuality to hide from the fact that I’m actually gay” or conversely, “bisexuality was just a phase, I’m straight now.” I understand that its inherent “in-betweenness” does make it a convenient stopping…

He tells me that he finds out performers’ legal names and he then researches what high school they went to, finds their yearbook on eBay, and brings it to them to sign.

There is little question that this is happening. There have been a ton of sexual abuse claims made against ICE in immigrant detention centers and they’re fighting to bury the records. It’s completely to be expected that this is happening to children as well.

In 1910 the Odenwald Schule was founded in Germany, a boarding school, heralded as one of the best examples of progressive education, it was closed in 2015. Because this was the second time rampant sexual abuse in the 70's and 80's was made public. 130 students were abused by 7 or 8 teachers.

This can’t be said loudly enough;

I’m a brown woman and today we went to a local water park. My 12 year old needed help because she was wet and her sports bra was all sorts of twisted. I just read this story and thought, “who helps the girls in the camps? Who kisses them goodnight? Who smiles with joy when they do awesome kid stuff? Who holds…

No but it is similar to earlier Nazi camps that German Jews were “deported” to. It also bears a strong resemblance to the desert camps where the Turkish government “relocated” the Armenians to die in in WW1. I wonder how long it will be until people in these camps start getting shot for “attempting to escape”. Just…

These tent camps are unlicensed. They don’t have to give appropriate care with caregivers who have background checks and are trained to be with children. They have contracted ARMED Guards to work there. In 105 degrees these children are going to die.

You know how we saw the pictures from that boy’s facility? Where is the girl equivalent of that? I’m horrified for what that must be like.

“Jeff Sessions ... said his department would remain tough on suspected child sex abusers”

Thank you for covering this. Have been seeing posts about this tragedy from anti-gun student activist Kendra Woods, and wasn’t sure it would get any attention.

That’s wasn’t meant as criticism of your word choice, rather the legal defense as reported in the yahoo quote (which I thought it’s usage in the title was in reference to). My point being, that the video of fully-clothed Meghan is significantly less racy than topless pictures of Kate. Besides that, even though the…

commoditization.

great, I am really looking for a pair of cute high-tops to round out my soft butch mom aesthetic
