guess who ate a whole block of tofu again
a standard 12-to-16-oz block of tofu can be used in a recipe that will feed a family of four; or cut into triangles and pan-fried, with some dipping sauce, it can feed me

wow, feminism blamed for *checks notes* women being too skinny
(from Fearing the Black Body, by Sabrina Strings)
(from Fearing the Black Body, by Sabrina Strings)
![In a subsequent chapter, Fishbein too notes gravely, "The movement to prevent unwise and fanatical reduction in body weight must be con-sidered as an activity of preventive medicine worthy [of] the consid-eration of every intelligent man or woman." From his perspective, feminism was to blame for the svelte American girl; as he puts it, "Many observers are inclined to urge that the fad for slenderization is the result of the rise of feminism and the passing of some eleven millions [sic] of women out of the home."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:27vxrn2zc6lcv364ala4zjip/bafkreicajzoq5cqccdv7kc7o5jh2gkfqdcv6g3xeijem5hf7uga5mjfiqi@jpeg)

you're telling me Florence Harding was an aloof wife
Florence knew she had the brains and ambition but not the right plumbing, so she found someone who did, who looked the part, and made it happen.
She ran his entire political life. Who he should meet with, what issues he should support, who worked for his campaigns/offices. She wrote his speeches.

it's a shame I got distracted by the rhetorical weirdness of this piece bc I actually wanted to highlight this important observation about how the internet's attention economy is driving gun violence and not just for the stereotypical white male manifesto-writer

It's actually crazy how this article, which is explicitly about the ways gun violence that affects BIPOC communities is written off, doesn't mention race once. When I say crazy I mean literally insane, it's an insane choice. Who is behind it?
