Ich finde es immer sehr faszinierend, woran am Ende anscheinend die Frauen schuld sein sollen
Zum Beispiel: Dass Jungen zu wenig lesen - liegt jetzt anscheinend daran, dass Mädchen viel lesen und der Buchmarkt darauf reagiert hat 🙃

Wake up Schatz eine neue greinende Kolumne über die "weibliche" Buchbranche just dropped
"Eine „weiblich codierte Lese- und Medienkultur“ kann bei Jungen den Eindruck erwecken, „dass sich Literalität mit Weiblichkeit verknüpft“ – fatal für den Aufbau einer männlichen Geschlechtsidentität."

Die Lüge vom lesefaulen Mann ist scheinheilig
Nur 14,6 Prozent der Männer lesen mehrmals wöchentlich. Doch das Problem liegt nicht bei den Männern, sondern an einer Branche, die systematisch die Hälfte ihrer Zielgruppe ignoriert.

Unfortunately I won't transcribe that into alt, but tl:dr it's an explanation on our morphology of vowels and how the fuck we have 15 recognised ones.

Listening to "It could Happen Here" today, @miawong.bsky.social tries to explain what the federal reserve is. I'm a bit dumb, so what I got is:
"What is the federal reserve?"
"It's complicated and a bit theological. Let us start with the Council of Nicaea regarding the holy Trinity..."

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

I FUCKING LOVE, as I read further into the series, that Dungeon Crawler Carl is weirdly smartly anti-capitalist AND anarchist. It’s weird because it has “anarchist” in the title of the third book, but a surface level read would assume that’s just a joke but go deeper the book is really political.
