Every time I see Ross Douthat's name I remember my friend who was a classmate of his at Harvard telling me that he wrote an article for the Crimson about how knowing that the women he met on campus were on birth control made his boner sad.

In reference to my previous share, this is one reason that you should cancel your subscription. The name of the article is a little different when I look at it but "did women ruin the workplace" is still there.
The individuals who are the “deciders” of “what is (is not) fit to print”: AGSulzberger, Kahn, Ryan, Lacey, Healy, Kingsbury+ escape much-warranted criticism behind the institutional mantle.

I work at a University and our campus library provides digital access for free. Works great.
If you’re ever desperate for a Times article, there’s a 90% chance your local library offers free digital access to the Times with a library card. it’s their job to do that for you. you do not have to pay for it yourself. Cancel your sub
one thing that's nice about canceling your New York Times sub is every week you get at least one or two stories shared on here that make you say, "yeah, it rocks that I did that, I only wish I could do it again." highly recommend you cancel yours if you haven't already

i don’t normally endorse block lists (i’m on some, weirdly lumped in with people i myself have blocked) but i don’t see how blocking all these accts with one button is bad.
most importantly, DO NOT ENGAGE WITH THEM. they already own X so they wouldn’t be here if they weren’t trying to start shit.

White women, I beg of you, Please learn the difference between having your feelings hurt and actual systems of oppression.
It’s disheartening that Black people want a space to be among likeminded Black folks and not have to face anti Black racism from the likes of you?
That’s what has your feelings hurt?
And your reasoning is that you’ve *checks notes* say you, as a white woman, have experienced racism.
Girl. 😒

This is disheartening. I want all races in my community and unfortunately I think this is racist. I understand the black community wants to be supported, it’s coming off as a one way street. I’ve encountered racism lately all from mentally unstable black women. Blacksky will further segregate people

I started watching 911 which breaks with my no copaganda shows that aren't about bumbling cops needing a psychic, mentalist, mystery author, forensic anthropologist or other outsider so they can do their jobs. But I really enjoy Angela Bassett chewing scenery goddammit

Had a teacher call me and a friend "baby killers" in a highschool science class in probably 1989.
One teacher told us “apartheid was good for S Africa;” another lectured that FDR “ruined the country” by making Americans “lazy;” yet another wld force us to watch Alan Greenspan lectures and preface them by saying “now that’s a smart Jew” (the teacher ofc was not Jewish)

I want to learn things from people who are more plugged in than I am, so I follow people who share educational content. But I also really want fun, playful, silly, diversionary content.
I don't need or want my social media to be a place where we clobber each other w/the worst aspects of reality.

the thing that always baffles me about the bubblesky™️ discourse is that it just makes me feel so sad for the kind of person who has only ever seen social media as a place you must extract tangible value from--political clout, or clicks for your hot takes, or idek what they're doing.

How was my night?
My cat Bess is suddenly a mouser.
I woke up early in the night to the gift of still living mouse, managed to get that sorted and go back to sleep only to wake up about an hour before my alarm to a second gift of a very dead mouse.
Today is going to be difficult.

This is the stupidest possible harbinger of the Apocalypse
Hand soaps are now being recalled because they can cause serious infection including sepsis and death.
In “healthy” individuals with minor cuts they will likely cause localized infection, but in immune compromised people it could be fatal.
