I told my kids that we can't go outside on President's Day, because on President's Day all dead presidents rise from their graves and grow to 100 feet tall, stomping across the countryside, roaring and shooting lasers from their eyes.
But each has their weaknesses. Lincoln is afraid of theaters.

The thing modern feminists have to negotiate is that sexism is literally everywhere. In every tradition. It’s in atheist/skeptic communities as much as religious ones. And there are liberatory interpretive strands in every tradition I’ve encountered.

One element of this that I think is important, for me personally, is that folks who have “changed sides” or “seen the light” shouldn’t be clamoring for positions of leadership. Someone who is radically changing opinions while still trying to lead reeks of self-serving false belief.

I’m often asked “What did you think of the movie?” on my way out of a theater, and while I dislike that question on principle, I am fortunate to know I am speaking the truth when I say “I won’t know until I’ve written about it.”

Writing is thinking.
It's not some marginal boring task you can skip. It's the heart of it.

It’s easy to think writing is mainly the transcription of ideas you already have—that is, until you try to write something worthwhile, and you find what you thought were saying transform into something far more interesting in the process. This skips that last step, and that is *not* an improvement.

One of the priests at my parish once pointed out that in her travels she had been to places in the world and stayed with families who were so truly poor they shared one pot and has no electricity & afterwards she never called herself poor again because she had gained perspective. /1

We really need to bring back the idea that shame can be a necessary feeling, and that there are things nations do that ought to lead to feeling shame.
This message from the US State Department about "not wanting allies to be shackled by guilt and shame" is a pretty direct call-out to the German far-right argument that Germany has spent too long feeling guilty about the Holocaust, and needs to move on and stop doing remembrance.

"the economy" is the language of modern politics. this is why reactionaries who are mad that a woman didn't smile at them tweet endlessly about how the economy will be so based and chad once we institute breeding camps
"I'm sad all the time and I don't know why" isn't a polling category and also doesn't sound serious, but "the economy is bad" does.

As a child protection professional, I can tell you the death penalty is NOT an awesome solution to child sexual abuse. Most children are abused by family members; they will not report if their family members will die as a result.
