“I’ll fight until hell freezes over and then I’ll cut the ice and fight on”
post by @jamellebouie.net from chandra manning's wonderful book "what this cruel war was over" Nothing made slavery's toxicity more obvious to Union troops than its effect on the fundamental unit of society, the family. For one thing, slave sales separated families. In the Upper South, where many Union soldiers were stationed in 1861, about one in three first marriages was broken by sale, and about half of all slave children were separated from at least one parent. 129 With their own eyes, soldiers saw slavery snap bonds between parents and children. The men of the Seventh Wisconsin were awakened by gunshots one November night. The following day, soldiers "learned, and saw the cause of the alarm in the form of two negro women—a mother and a daughter." The pair had fled to Union lines to avoid the proposed sale of the "goodlooking" daughter into the so-called fancy trade, which soldiers viewed as a form of concubinage. Outraged by the plight and moved by the vulnerability of the mother and daughter, "every private in the ranks" cursed "that system which tramples on the honor of man, and makes merchandise of the virtue of women," according to one member of the regiment. 130 When an Iowan encountered a young child about to be sold by her own father, who was also her master, he vowed, "By G-d I'll fight till hell freezes over and then I'll cut the ice and fight on."

Three panels from Order of the Stick. A group of goblins investigates a dungeon room. “Wait, is there something written on the wall there?” “Hold on, it’s real tiny, I gotta get close.” (Text reads ‘I prepared explosive runes this morning’) “Huh, I wonder what that-“ BOOM!

A comic of a pre-transition egg talking to her future trans self. “I’m you from the future.” “Oh yeah? Prove it.” “Well, turns out you’re gay!” “But I like girls.” As future self looms menacingly: “EXACTLY.”

It’s the “are women bourgeois” bit but done completely seriously.
Screenshot of text from Disco Elysium. RHETORIC (Heroic: Failure] - Alright, here we go. We're devoting all your available brain cells to coming up with a question about communism. Scratch that, to coming up with *the* question about communism, the alpha and omega of communism questions, and that question is: 1. - (Whisper.) "Are women bourgeois?" 2. - Oh god, that's bad. Surely I can think of something better.

Been a while since I Warham posted: been making progress on my Tyrannofex. Just needs the last few details!
