Hello, Please Stop Man-Bashing My Husband As A Conversation Starter - "I’m packing my groceries at the supermarket, trading toddler war stories with the checkout lady, as my own son wails in his trolley seat, because I stopped him from upending a magazine display. But, when I let slip that my husband is cooking dinner tonight, the checkout lady makes this noise:
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAA.” It’s a laugh, but one so loud and high and mocking that even my tantrumming son falls silent. “Oh, excuse me, is it his majesty’s annual turn to cook tonight?” The checkout lady hoots. “I hope you’ve got backup fishfingers! “Because they always ruin dinner, even when they’ve used every pan in the house. And do they wash up afterwards? Do they buggery. Hahahahaha.”"
Let children play! - "‘School almost “eliminates bullying” with breaktime ban on games.’ To me, this is like saying that getting rid of children’s play is a price worth paying if it means teachers can have a quiet life. It seems that in the view of Charlotte Whelan, the headteacher at Hackney New School, the elimination of children’s breaktime is a great pedagogic achievement. She said of her school experiment, where games are banned in breaktime, that ‘a school without bullying [might] sound like a utopia, but it is achievable’. I am a little suspicious of utopias, so I wasn’t surprised to discover that what certain school administrators describe as a utopia is actually a pretty dystopian situation in which children are not allowed to play spontaneously and freely with one another. Instead of the usual breaktime, where children are able to release their energy by running around and messing with each other, at Hackney New School the kids ‘participate in supervised quizzes, poetry recitals and other activities, including chess and choir clubs’. In other words, the pupils are subjected to an intensively structured regime of constant supervision by adults. Campaigners against bullying have long believed that the way to eliminate bullying is through more structured supervision of children’s lives. One of the supporters of banning old-style breaktime is Linda James, founder and chief executive of Bullies Out. She advocates ‘structured games, structured activities’, which she believes are better than allowing children to ‘wander… around aimlessly’. She warns that ‘unstructured games can sometimes lead to nasty comments, aggressive behaviour or children feeling left out’. James’ use of the term ‘unstructured games’ speaks to a hyper risk-averse mentality in the world of pedagogy today. There was a time when we simply said ‘play’ rather than using technical-sounding terms like ‘unstructured games’. What they call an ‘unstructured game’ is nothing more and nothing less than children playing with one another. From a technocratic perspective, it might look like children are ‘wandering around aimlessly’, but from the standpoint of common sense this is really kids messing about, exploring and probably getting into a bit of trouble. Precisely what childhood is about! Is it really worth trading off children’s freedom to play in exchange for the elimination of bullying? Real play – which is by definition unstructured – is an important part of child development. Children learn to test boundaries and to forge relationships through playing with each other. It is through independent play that they come to understand their own strengths and weaknesses. Through play, children develop a capacity for risk-taking, and an aspiration for freedom."
Why the Queen wears lime green for her most important occasions - "“She needs to stand out for people to be able to say ‘I saw the Queen’,” the Countess of Wessex said in the documentary The Queen at 90. “Don’t forget that when she turns up somewhere, the crowds are two, three, four, 10, 15 deep, and someone wants to be able to say they saw a bit of the queen’s hat as she went past.”... Though trends don’t play a part in the Queen’s fashion choices, it proves that she certainly has the power to influence them. In the wake of that appearance, high street retailer JD Williams reported that sales of neon clothing soared by 134 percent."

The Senate’s Infrastructure Bill Redefines ‘Broadband’ To Manufacture a Connectivity Crisis - "the new federal broadband rule is the equivalent of mandating that all homes have at least five bathrooms... Ironically, the change in definition might actually make it harder to close the so-called "digital divide." As Joan Marsh, a vice president at AT&T, pointed out in March when the present debate over broadband definitions was first ramping up, setting poor standards can result in "overbuilding" that prioritizes faster access for places with already-fast connections rather than reaching the hard-to-connect parts of the country"
What Is Infrastructure? It's A Gender Issue, For Starters - "Past infrastructure jobs have been men's jobs... "A lot of this is a big branding exercise," he said. "And if Biden can convince the American people that this actually is an infrastructure bill, its chances of passage are much higher simply because voters are overwhelmingly supportive of spending more money on infrastructure.""
Infrastructure is sexist! Time to tear it down!
Biden's $2T spending plan, billed as infrastructure bill, spends less than half on infrastructure - "less than $750 billion of the spending fits even a broad definition of infrastructure... "This plan is not about rebuilding America’s backbone. Less than 6% of this massive proposal goes to roads and bridges," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said. "It would spend more money just on electric cars than on America’s roads, bridges, ports, airports, and waterways combined."... "It's hugely ironic because the leading Democrats have bashed corporate welfare and corporate subsidies for years, and they always claim that Republicans do corporate subsidies," Edwards told Fox News. "But in fact, Biden would subsidize corporations hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars with this plan.""
United pledged to diversify its pilot pipeline. Conservative outrage followed. - The Washington Post - "Less than 20 percent of United Airlines’ pilots are women or people of color — a statistic the carrier wants to change. So United said last week that it had set a goal to train 5,000 new pilots, at least half of them women or people of color, at its new flight school over the next decade. In a statement, CEO Scott Kirby said those pilots would be guaranteed a job after completing the requirements of the airline’s pilot career development program, called Aviate."

Allegations surface of inappropriate behaviour by former defence chief Jonathan Vance - "Canada’s top defence officials say they are troubled by allegations that former defence chief Jonathan Vance engaged in inappropriate behaviour with female subordinates... Vance took over as defence chief in July 2015, at which point the Canadian Armed Forces was struggling with allegations of having turned a blind eye toward sexual misconduct in the ranks. Vance’s first order as Canada’s top military commander was to launch an all-out effort against such inappropriate behaviour, which he continued to push during his five-plus years at the helm."

1) If a woman-led country fared comparatively well in the COVID crisis, this "proves" that women leaders are superior during a pandemic.
2) The number of US COVID deaths are strictly due to the incompetence of @realDonaldTrump.
3) If out of one hundred cities ranked on 10 metrics of misery, 99 have been governed by @TheDemocrats for the past 100 years, this proves nothing.
4) If the US had done well on COVID, this would be due to the policies of @BarackObama.

Flag of Norway: the mother of all flags - "Well, if you type ‘mother of all flags’ into Google Images you’ll see many images of Norway’s flag with several other national flags marked out within it. These flags are: Indonesia, Poland, Malta GC, Finland, France, Netherlands and Thailand. Serbia & Montenegro is also there if you look at an old enough version – it would be directly underneath the Dutch flag on the image above. Also bear in mind that the Dutch flag is very similar to Luxembourg’s (and if you remove their coat of arms: Croatia and Paraguay) and Monaco’s is almost identical to Indonesia’s. In total that’s a minimum of nine current national flags which can be found within Norway’s."

Freedom of thought doesn't mean freedom from consequences
Some call it 'brutal repressions', but it’s a natural consequence of failing to conform
Every current (and future) servant of the Dark Lord enjoys nearly unlimited freedom of thought, as long as it's not not expressed in any way. Wrong facial expressions or, in some extreme cases, spoken words, can lead to just punishment. But how else can we eradicate orcophobia? Everyone must act as a willing and obedient servant to their overlords. It’s called basic decency, folks.
