Just a little (link) love: Dragon Prince edition
September 27, 2018
Early retirement in the olden days, from JD.
Gut-wrenching read – Henry (CW: baby and ependymoma).
FIRE: It’s not all tech bros here.
If I can’t convince someone that giving is a worthwhile endeavor in and of itself, and I’m forced to keep them in my life despite their being a terrible person because who doesn’t believe in caring about more than yourself (??), perhaps Matt would be more persuasive.
A MUST read from Piggy and Kitty: When Money is the Weapon: Understanding Intimate Partner Financial Abuse. It’s depressing how many of these forms of abuses I’ve witnessed happening to people I love and the kind of toll it takes on them.
I am sick to my stomach of all the people who are ok with how men and boys treat girls and women. I see you not speaking up. I see how you support this culture. GIRLS MATTER. And I am sick of the people in the comments section acting like the vast majority of rapes aren’t credible reports because of the rare false accusations out there. It just keeps on with the protect the boys narrative as if boys can’t be better than this, as if they can’t possibly be expected to take responsibility for their actions while the body count of their targets pile up. The only concern these people have is about the future of the boys while the people they actually hurt, by the thousands, are told they don’t matter: Girls . . . are human. Girls are not there for the benefit of helping boys to turn into men. They are not there to be soiled and then tossed on the heap while boys go out and buy themselves a whole new look, a whole new life.
If you don’t want men to be dragged down by decades-old accusations of rape, then you need to crack down on minutes-old accusations of rape as they happen. But that’s not how it goes. Still, even now, that’s not how it goes.
Dragon Prince!
If you loved Avatar, this is worth trying out.
