The great Victorian critic and artist John Ruskin believed all beauty comes from nature. Look closely at his painting of a Bleinheim Orange apple (1873), and you'll see how Ruskin's lighting and shadow animate and dramatise a simple object.

the fascists are looking to rigidly define gender not just to punish trans people like they claim but to lay the groundwork for the oppression of all women. when gender is legally mutable, it is harder to use it to restrict people’s rights.

This is @timothysnyder.bsky.social ’s concept of not obeying in advance in action. “Working towards the Fuhrer” is the psychosocial explanation of how and why a lot people will have the urge to invent orders for themselves to obey.
I would really urge everyone to familiarise themselves with Ian Kershaw’s concept of Working Towards The Fuhrer
Many of the worst things that happened in Nazi Germany were never mandated by law. People just predicted what Hitler would like and then did it.

LIVE TO SEE THEM DIE
Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

This is a sewing pattern. It is also a page from a late 14th century manuscript that is one of two primary sources for an important Icelandic saga (Sturlunga saga), but that was probably not important to the 17th century person who really needed a sewing pattern.
