my new thing whenever an embarrassing memory jumps up out of some backwater neuron to t-bone my present-day thought process is to declare a statute of limitations. like i can burn down an entire building in the state where i live and the law deems it both unfair and illegal to prosecute me after six years have passed, i think that thing i said in high school can be expunged from my record.

Okay, but this is actually kind of genius.

My family has a related Policy called “The Five Year Rule”. Five years after an embarrassing or dramatic event happens to someone, everyone else has to shut up about it. This rule was created to keep some of my aunts from bringing up shit from fifteen and twenty years ago at family dinners.

So if you need to set a statute of Limitations: If it would be fucking rude of your auntie to bring up at thanksgiving, it’s rude for your brain to bring up at 3AM too and it needs to eat some mashed potatoes and shut up.

Fascinating.

On 15 August 1970, Black Panther Party co-founder Huey P Newton delivered a speech in New York City where he criticised the previous attitude of the party, and other left groups towards women and LGBT+ people. He criticised homophobia and sexism in revolutionary movements, commenting that “homosexuals… might be the most oppressed people in… society”, and called on the left to desist using homophobic language to describe “enemies of the people” like president Richard Nixon. He argued that all radical events should include “full participation of the gay liberation movement and the women’s liberation movement”. The move came after the foundation of the Gay Liberation Front, which supported the Black liberation movement, and militantly raised issues such as homophobia within radical organisations

Y’all… what do you guys do for a living… but describe it in the worst way possible.

first of all, OP, you get extra credit points for Maniac Magee ref.

what do I do? what we all do: fuck shit up and un-fuck it repeatedly until something more fucked up comes along to un-fuck.

this little freak keeps sneaking into my garden and rubbing himself all over my flowers??Hello?????

Real, male bees don’t go after flowers they stay home, that freak is a herself

googling ‘bee genders’ as I dictate this post

The more you google bee reproductive biology the more absurd it is that we’re applying the words male and female to them. Their actual genders are worker, drone and queen. The queen is capable of both asexual and sexual reproduction. Bees born of unfertilized eggs become drones that are capable of fertilizing eggs. Bees born of fertilized eggs become workers, but can also potentially become a queen depending on how they are fed during the larval stage.

Use whatever the fuck pronouns you want to describe bees because they’re all equally incorrect projections of human worldview onto an insect species. Bees don’t experience mammalian sexual dimorphism in a biological sense nor do they experience human gender dimorphism in a sociopolitical sense.

diversity win, the freak sneaking into your garden and rubbing themselves all over your flowers does not fit into a human biological or sociopolitical framework of sex and gender!

agricultural engineer at my work grew up on a farm in a time when being a farmer also meant being a carpenter (his words) and a couple days ago a piece of stupidly crucial wood equipment broke in our lab and i helped him build a new one in like 2 hours thats actually very sturdy and looks like it was actually done right on the first try because it was and i realized how incredibly powerful of a skill it is to be able to make like, a competent set of shelves, a piece of handmade equipment to specifications, etc and be able to at least have an idea of how to make bigger things and i cannot stop thinking about it now. like he was telling me about how when he was in college it was required for engineering majors to learn how to make the stuff they were designing so he had to take proper woodworking and metalworking classes too and they dont do that as much anymore. and how he has relatives that run a woodshop and build like tables and standing clocks and stuff. imagine somebody asking you for a table or clock and you can just make it and it looks nice and works well for a long time and you can fix it if it breaks. maybe im just gen z but whoa

a thing you should know about farmers is they pretty much fix everything themselves so if you find a 20 year + farmer out there they will likely be able to irrigate and plumb, excavate/landscape, build and fix wooden structures (there’s a word for that…), fix common electrical shit, fabricate and weld in a pinch and, of course, some mechanic shit also but, like, large and small engine shit. Big ass tractor or lawnmower. Or slap a lawnmower moter on a hunk o metal and call that fucker something new. Not to mention chemical knowledge and how to grow shit or raise animals. You want some well-rounded life experience you get yo ass to a farm for a decade.
