i don't really care what your personal american feelings are on homeschooling. you have to understand that it's a system that further empowers parents to own their children's lives and behavior. It generates abuse by enabling parents to cut off contact for the child with other children and adults. homeschooling must be understood as a type of grooming, potentially.

70% Drop in Levels of Forever Chemicals Observed in Seabird Eggs Tracks Regulatory Success

These pescatarian birds are directly exposed to PFAS contamination due to the island's position near the St. Lawrence Seaway.

Over fifty years of data show a peak in PFAS (also known as "forever chemicals") content in seabird eggs in the 90s, followed by a decrease as regulations went into effect. The most recent findings show a 70% decrease of most common PFAS.

While continued vigilance a regulation is needed, this data indicates that regulations are working to reduce PFAS concentrations in marine ecosystems.

[sattarehi]

Yes!!!! I did a review of literature on PFASs in human drinking water about half a year ago, and there is a lot of really good progress! Please celebrate this, please don't let this solution be forgotten (at least so quickly) as the ozone layer or acid rain.

We are making genuine progress! Producers are dramatically altering how much they use PFAS and how much gets released in effluent, but also there's a lot better understanding of how to remove PFAS from the environment!

Environmental problems CAN BE SOLVED.

tremble before the might of my QIN ARMY you illiterate, illegitimate, ill-begotten COUNTRY BUMPKIN! attack, my patriotic citizens! (and the conscripted forces who have no choice in the matter)

[emperor-gaozu-of-han]

I famously overthrew the Qin dynasty, going from a peasant to one of the most beloved emperors of China. Meanwhile. Qin "Shi Huang" over there was a tyrant whose dynasty lasted a whopping….14 years. Oops.

[qin-shi-huang-di]

ha. ha. lmao, even. quick show of hands, peasants, who among you wants to keep living under the powerful arm of an absolute monarch, who controls a centralised government that builds you roads, dykes and waterways--oh, would you look at that, emperor Han Gaozu himself is first in line! even the HATERS and LOSERS want to keep perpetuating the system i created because they do not have the VISION to come up with anything BETTER or MORE INFLUENTIAL. would Liu Bang, the back-stabber and baby-tosser, like to talk about what he contributed to the next 2000 years of Chinese history?

[strike-the-zither]

um -_- off the top of my head -_- here are a list of modern words that are named after the Han dynasty

汉字: Chinese writing, (lit: script of the Han)

汉语: chinese language, (lit: language of the Han)

汉服: traditional clothes, (lit: Han costume)

汉: Han ethnic group, which makes up 99% of china's population

好汉: hero/brave person, (lit: a good Han)

汉堡包: hamburger, (lit: Han Fortress Bun)

[swordsman-jing-ke]

it’s actually not misogynistic to say astrology is bogus, and it is indeed way way more misogynistic to believe that things that can’t be proven rationally through science are More Female.

do think when people say "we know marriage is a social construct, but it's a legal way to be able to take care of someone else and vice versa" as if those of us making a point about marriage (i would say, a lot of us being aromantic people especially) don't know this fact, are missing a bit of the point about why this is stressed and potentially not giving enough grace to (again especially aromantic) people who say this.

when it's framed as a "so just get married for legality reasons" and im like. you mean like how gay people married/marry people of the opposite gender for legality reasons? and that's considered to be a symptom of a problem, not the solution? you want people to "just" get married against their will because it's the only solution this system has available?

if people cannot or will not get married for whatever reason -- not just for being aromantic, but, say, due to inefficient disability support measures within marriage, because of having had bad experiences with marriage in the past, because of being polyamorous, because some element of marriage is ineffective, unwanted, limited, discriminatory, or hell, because you can't find somebody to marry or nobody wants to marry you, or maybe because you just plain don't want to without there being a distinct Reason -- then it's a problem that this is the only framework in place for people to be afforded certain legal and social protections.

i am glad for others that more people can get married, but it's a flawed institution with gaping holes that isn't for everyone and builds social structures that leave so many people behind and unsupported. this is abundantly obvious in the way that we saw why people pushed for the need for equal marriage in the first place.

that's what's said when making a point that it's a social construct. and also what's meant (partially) when pushing against the idea that "love" as concept isn't at the core of queer (amongst others hinted at in this post) activism, because it's about building better structures. if the only people we care about are those we "love" within a family unit, or those who successfully manage to pretend that unit without actually really wanting it, and if not being in that unit for whatever reason means that care isn't going to be/is no longer afforded, then are we really doing any better than heteronormativity?

more people need to read up on "amatonormativity" from the original source (this is a summary from the same person written in 2012 and so doesn't include aromantic, but it's all in there) before they start pushing marriage as the ultimate goal of queer liberation, or indeed any liberation.

they really don't respect the time of disabled people. your application can take up to 12 weeks. the specialist waitlist is 3 years. your assessment will be any time within the next 6 months. let us know if you cannot attend this appointment you waited 7 weeks for and we'll reschedule next year. we've decided to assess you at this time and day and you have to be available or any support you dared to apply for is not going to happen. and in between these long bouts of waiting you have to survive the everyday

im defending patricia taxxon with my life

[nekrotiize]

nothing she could ever do would ever justify the amount of hate she gets, the intensity of the hate she gets, and the consistency in which she gets it. she is a deeply kind and intelligent individual who has more of a right to her own life than any fuckhead on the internet. she has not done jack shit and people keep throwing rocks at her because she's labeled an easy target. it's horrible.

[nekrotiize]

patty is a brighter, better, more impactful presence on this earth than any sad sorry fuck that's ever even thought a negative thing about her. fuck everyone. if you disagree, fuck you
