a really-substantial portion of anti-sports sentiment is a traumatic response to the forms of gender violence and gendered judgment that are delivered most directly through childhood sports and physical education.

another substantial portion is a traumatic response to having your body destroyed by unsafe sports and getting dropped like a hot potato by your life's dream and the people you spent the most time with.

another substantial portion, at least in the U.S., is resentment that your education was drastically underfunded and stripped of all creative programs in favor of funding sports programs and building sports facilities.

there's nothing wrong with enjoying sports! your hobby is fine. but please try to keep a little bit of perspective, and bear criticism of sports — even inane or over-vehement — with magnanimity. not everyone *gets* to have any positive association with sports at all.

I always used to insist on calling shooting stars meteors, this was because I was a bastard little shit with no sense of fun or magic

When we pass it, & we will, we can’t let future generations forget what this system really was. Class Genocide. The Rich poisoned our water, toxified our air, ejected us from our home then robbed us making us pay for what they did 2 us. Ppl were left 2 die in the streets, in their plundered homes, on their pillaged reservations, in waiting rooms waiting for doctors 2 give them a diagnosis they couldn’t afford to survive. Mothers had to choose between children who 2 give the 1 dose of medication.

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.

One commonly mentioned danger of a large corporate player like Twitter coming into the decentralized social world is the Embrace-Extend-Extinguish tactic, wherein one entity adopts a common protocol, and once it acquires a large marketshare then makes itself incompatible through custom changes, locking its users in and leaving the common protocol for dead.

someone should have explained to britons what a deductible is

hi im twitter jack. you may recognize me from articles like "twitter jack fucks up again" and "twitter jack has no idea what the hell he is doing." ive decided that twitter is alphabet now and now were making a standard. it will probably be blockchain based for some reason

kind of sucks that people have to choose between being able to pay their rent and doing work that actually helps people. wonder if the system has been designed this way or something.
