A post collecting almost everything I needed to link blog for months.

The human zoo- how humans of color are equated with animals. BTW: Have you ever noticed that cartoons with Africa as a setting always have animals as the characters?

Social Illiteracy- Why is the canon so narrow? The canon of one group might include Alice Walker, Toni Morrison, Octavia Butler, and the canon of another might be Final Fantasy, Zelda, and Metroid. Who determines which makes one more intelligent or cultured?

I admit that it can really help to have a shared canon. Fun Home was a beautiful comic, but I felt that because I wasn't as familar with James Joyce and Proust as I might be, I lost a level of the meaning.

Behind Teach For America.

On Sick Systems.

I really like how they pointed out the problems of prostitution along with their push for legalization.

This is your brain on ADD.

Stop branding- start creating.

She's just now noticing that the icongraphy of video games is a language?

The floating castles of the super rich.

How hot we are or aren't has nothing to do with our opinions and our politics.

Feminism- hurting and saving.

This guy sure doesn't get twitter.

Fuck Seal Press.

Fuck Blockbuster. They may have allowed me to explore my interest in anime, with their scattered collection of half dubbed tapes, but their late fees, and harassing us for years because my brother had some, earned them my eternal hate. Good riddance.

Woman making sustainable homes for homeless.

A different reading of freedom.

100 years of hilarious beauty ads.

Hetronormative and silly rant slammed.

You know, I wouldn't trust my contraception to queen anne's lace. But I am not open to 'oops'.

A reality check on this too.

Also, what should we do with the people who are 'surplused' in this global economy? The lady in the story acts like minorities are doing better, but no- we're doing worse.

BTW:Prostitution and pimpery not all rainbows and sunshine. Pimp sentenced to 18 years for forced prostitution of 17 year olds.

The drowning of Nashville, and how it was ignored in the press for days.

Thouands of teachers are being fired, leading to higher class sizes.

Time Wise's If the Tea Party Were Black...

What can doctors do about lactation failure?

This post about dirty pictures[personally I think some people would find this a bit triggering. I felt vaguely violated reading it] is pretty interesting. It's about how someone doesn't have to put a gun to your head to be coercive. People who are predators seem to be able to sniff out the person who wants to be accepted, and find a situation where they can maintain plausible deniability. They know that the perfect victim, doesn't exist. Every woman can be accused of something. And they use that knowledge to their advantage. They know they have so many defenders. But, I think every time we say "That's bullshit!", we diminish their power a little. Every time we say- no, that doesn't give you the right! Their power fades a little. not a lot, but a little.

BTW: Sick! This fashion photographer is way over the line!

Procrastination Monday!

A good piece on rape culture! Folks will act like anything is consent, but only consent is consent. i.e. nudity ain't consent, eating expensive dinners ain't consent, existing in the same room as a man ain't consent, short skirts ain't consent...

We were told to get an education and play by the rules, now all we got is debt. Of course, for every celebrity that's getting paid, there's a thousand folks making a fool of themselves on tv for nothing.

Blergh, the same ol' one woman carps about femininity culture, and that's totally the same as the entire weight of the culture bullshit.

Old white dudes, you don't need to forward every email you see. No one needs to know you're a racist. Keep that to yourself.

Men bored with porn, start wanking it to facebook.

Stop violence against women!

"Buy one less thing, invest in one more woman"

Salmonella found in every food item ever.

That rapist should be ashamed of himself, and so do the folks who didn't expel him from school.

I love you kameelah! By which I mean, your blog is awesome!

Ah. pandagon, is there a subject you can't wank on?

I like how this post has a sensible discussion about why people choose the foods they do. [hint: it's not because they are saying HAHAHAHAHA! I WILL HAVE A FAT ASS AND RUIN AMERICA!!!]

Well...here's some waste, fraud and abuse we can cut out of our healthcare system.

Overall good article, but what's with the 'bad sex' thing?

I bet the 'I was helping the poor' excuse wouldn't fly if a woman was buying shoes online during work.

Hey, dudes, rape, beating women, and economic abuse is 'fashionable'! All on the prostitution train!

Our way of work is making us sick. And job hunting is ridiculous.

The idea that only parents can transmit values to children is part of our claustrophobic culture which makes parenting a lonely enterprise. Adults, such as teachers, coaches, neighbors, church members, have an important role in transmitting values. Yes, sometimes, even the President can transmit values! It's all good.

On facebook, people are against glorifying the lives of pimps.

In Memphis, you can no longer flunk kindergarten.

Some guy says medicare for all! tiny american flags for some!

Yea, I'm in the same place, problem. I feel like job hunting and after grad stuff is a ton of work though.

bfp talks about how add jokes aren't funny, and people talk about fitting work around people, around families, around life instead of the opposite.

In the comments here, Mnem gets all pissed because we don't pay enough attention to the fact that you can drop weight if you make it your prime life goal.

People are thinking deeply about language and sighted privilege, as I am failing the whole cleaning deal.

I have no idea what's going on, but this comment about nursing homes and bedsores seems like serious business. I want to be somehow supportive, but I'm not any help.

Maan, I don't want to go to graduation.I wonder if being a slacker is just my natural bent..

Maan, that's messed up dude. The whole killing folks in jail thing is messed up.

Critisms of the adoption system are made through sarcasm. Also, a post about patterns of exploitation in the adoption system is made straight.

Creating a glossary of terms on race.

'Islam is a Feminist religion.'

I found a video about the economy on twitter.


The South still lags behind educationally.

Memphis will be hard hit in recession.


Stupid whites only lady pisses off decent types.

I love this quote.

PETA's stupidity is mocked on the internet.

Another guy talks about how dumb PETA is.

PETA offends right thinking people. It also trivializes the KKK.

Barack Obama uses bad words. We all swoooon.

Ok, that's awesome.

Woman is in terrible relationship, will bring baby into it. I hear that 85% of women will end up pregnant with one year's unprotected intercourse. Pulling out doesn't work. Wrap it before you tap it!

also, the stupidfree post. BTW: if your boyfriend is like the OP's- dump him

Mississippi governor is an idiot. He's against unemployment benefits for part time work, which is bunk. I'm sure many Mississippians would LOVE to work full time, but their job won't give them the hours. Or maybe they live in a small town, and there's not as many employers to choose from or something.

I have no idea what is going on in this article. Any help?

The New Know Nothings are covered in the New York Times.

A feminist says we should get out nose out of the octuplet lady's cunt.

Another feminist has other ideas.

A long discussion on the dominance of romantic love over well...all other aspects of life.

LOLZ, nipple wank

Polls on nipples.

Oh, and in important news- immigrants jailed for no good reason.
