on sex education timing, unnecessary cancer scares 

In my fifth grade class, a few kids were worried they'd developed breast cancer. There were informative ads on TV at the time describing hard lumps in one breast which do not move freely. They'd scoured the library. The working theory was that the drainage field behind our school held toxic effluent.

This was, of course, normal early breast tissue development.

Selectively hiding information from children about their own bodies is cruel.

That extra t is there just to remind you of Scarlett O'Hara. Her parents knew her character from birth.

I don't know how many n's and/or s's are in Scartlet Johasnaahg's name, and I don't care to.

Every time I have to write that name, I resist the temptation to look it up and be correct.

Listening to my custom Perez Prado B52s playlist

A mambo song without someone saying "mambo" would be like a ska song without someone saying "pickituppickitup!"

Mambo is a good genre, because mambo songs always tell you what genre you're listening to.

absolutely floored to learn that Mambo No. 5 is a cover

people just don't realize how transphobia is literally a death sentence

folks really don't understand how excusing marginalizations at any fucking level excuses a society that shuns/bullies/kills people for fucking existing

In Empire of Democracy, Simon Reid-Henry argues that the actual purpose of privitisation is to take democratic accountability away of the institutions of the state. That way, their owners will quite reliably act along class interests, rather than the interests of the people.
