Detta är en tradition från 90 och 00 talet av kvinnliga många författare. Internaliserad självhat pgv fetfobin som var så utpräglad i media riktad mot kvinnor

The photo shows a protest sign being held up on a city street. The sign is hand-made, with bold red and black lettering on a white background. At the top, it says “NOT DONE YET” in red letters.

Below that is a list of five demands, each with a checkbox next to it:
• Ceasefire — this box has a red checkmark in it.
• END Occupation — empty box.
• END Apartheid — empty box.
• REBUILD Gaza — empty box.
• The Hague — empty box.

The photo was posted on social media by a verified user named James Jackson, who wrote the caption: “From today’s UnitedforGaza protest.”

Men Vera är ljuvlig. Om du kan filtrerar bort fatshaming är Veraserien en fin upplevelse (jag älskar Vera TV-serien)

Jag blev otroligt provicerad av Ann Cleeve böcker där det finns massa fatshaming i Veraböcker men inget sådant i Shetlandserien.

Extremt dumt. Särskilt när hon försöker skapa en intressant och kompetent karaktär men lägger till fatshaming

Vera-bokserien var full av sådan fatfobi, tur att TVskaparna tog bort det mesta av det.
Så tröttsamt. Varför trycka ner sina egna bokkaraktärer ?

Jag börjar lyssna på en ny deckare. Inom 20min får jag veta vad den kvinnliga protagonisten väger (79,5), vad är det för midjestorlek i byxor hon har (36) och att hon är rädd att sätta sig i bilar ifall bilbälltet ska vara för litet för henne.

That, and this one too.

Image of a post in which Tom Morello responds to some guy ironically calling him "another successful musician [who] instantly becomes a political expert". Morello's answer reads: "One does not have to be an honors grad in political science from Harvard University to recognize the unethical and inhumane nature of this administration but well, I happen to be an honors grad in political science from Harvard University so I can confirm that for you".

Absolutely love this twitter classic:

Exchange between two twitter users. A man called Scott Castaneda write to Tom Morella, "I use to be a fan until your political opinions come out. Music is my sanctuary and the last thing I want to hear is political bs when I'm listening to music. As far as I'm concerned you and pink are completely done. Keep running your mouth and ruining your fan base." User Howard Finklestein replies, "What 'machine' did you think he was raining against? The dishwasher?"

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

I wonder how many ICE dudes read Anne Frank’s diary in high school and thought, “I’d have gotten her sooner.”

Ah yes, the terrifying streets of “war-ravaged Portland”.

The absurdity of this so-called “occupation” is perfectly captured here: riot cops with guns and shields, made ridiculous by a Victorian tea party on the sidewalk.

Victorian tea party calmly outclassing riot cops in full battle gear.👇

After every war
someone has to clean up.
Things won’t
straighten themselves up, after all.
Someone has to push the rubble
to the side of the road,
so the corpse-filled wagons
can pass
Someone has to get mired
in scum and ashes,
sofa springs,
splintered glass,
and bloody rags

Bring me all of your dreams,
You dreamers.
Bring me all of your
Heart melodies
That I may wrap them
In a blue cloud-cloth
Away from the too rough fingers
Of the world.

someone should have already told you that
and if he wants to leave
then let him leave
you are terrifying
and strange and beautiful
something not everyone knows how to love.

Jag har kåda i håret och vind i kjolen
och är nästan förblindad av morgonsolen.
Jag har visor i själen och dans i tårna
och försmädliga tårar i ögonvrårna.
