Have you seen Gracie? Officials in Texas search for missing giraffe

Gracie the giraffe is described as having rounded ears. She went missing from a ranch in Real County.

im crying dude

[fandomsandfeminism]

Yeehaw yall. Gracie is on the run.

[fandomsandfeminism]

To answer some common questions in the tags:

1. How do you lose a Giraffe? She apparently scaled a cliff that served as part of the enclosure (which the other giraffes in the herd had shown no interest in climbing.)

2. Well it should be easier to find her, she's a whole ass giraffe? Yeah, you'd think, but Texas ranches are fuckin huge. The man has apparently hired a helicopter and several drones to aide the search, but no luck yet. She's been seen on some game cameras on the nearby ranches though. But she's sneaky.

3. Why does a random guy in Texas have a herd of giraffes? Because it's Texas and we have basically no exotic animal regulations. No really. If you have enough land out in the hill country, you can just own stuff. It's fuckin nuts.

Iran were hustled out of the United States so quickly that the team’s players had to be iced and bandaged on the plane back to their base in Mexico. [...]

The impact on players has been so disruptive that it is hard to fully estimate, Mr. Araujo said. Iran’s squad has had to make do without its media officers, analysts and other staff members required to carry out crucial tasks like managing mid-game substitutions. [...]

Boarding the plane presented its own challenges. A checkpoint was set up yards from their airplane, where two at a time, Iran’s players and delegation underwent a second screening after already having cleared security checks and passport control inside the airport. “It took more than three hours to get inside the plane,” Mr. Araujo said.

this is security theatre performed solely to humiliate the completely civilian representatives of another country and arguably, a bit of cheating to prevent even a minor bit of sporting success that could rally the iranian people and/or make the usmnt look bad.

Pride month vest project, a patch a day #29: Wheat But Not Bread, Fruit But Not Wine

[gelbgelbgelb]

As my friend Julian puts it, only half winkingly: "God blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason God made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine, so that humanity might share in the act of creation."

-- Daniel Mallory Ortberg

[technologistrevolution]

This has been driving me insane because this quote is so incredibly Jewish but every time I saw it was completely divorced from Judaism in the version applying it to 'transsexual'.

The original concept that humans complete the act of creation by making bread from wheat is from the Talmud! And the specific "wheat but not bread, grapes but not wine" phrasing is from Jewish theologian Abraham Heschel but it is missing "clay but not bricks".

And among trans Jews the sentiment was already popular before I ever started seeing this specific phrasing so I knew, knew, knew a Jew and likely a trans Jew was involved.

As it happens, Ortberg's friend Julian is Jewish and they have strongly negative feelings about the way the quote has been removed from the context of their life as someone trans and Jewish. They used to have a thread up on xwitter about it but have since made their account private and only have a very terse FAQ online from which you can glean the treatment they likely received when being more open about their Jewishness, relationship to transness, and the interaction of both.

[kosherdragon]

I've always thought there was something extremely Jewish about that quote! I had no idea that Julian is Jewish.

[kosherdragon]

I looked at Julian's twitter and there's a linked in bio thread about this quote. There are a few clarifying tweets there

1. Julian isn't Jewish.

2. The quote actually is influenced by Jewish theology, specifically Rabbi Akiva.

Anyway, I'm glad I saw their twitter and the thread about this famous quote. It's often misattributed, and it's clear that it annoys Julian when people post this quote starting with "As my friend Julian puts it..." and then cite Danny Lavery (usually with a surname he no longer uses) as the author, when the original quote is available as a tweet from 2018.

i'm afraid the phrase "touch my wee wee touch my fucking wee wee!" has become a consistent part of my internal monologue vocabulary

Authoritarians want you to believe that that you have no hope. They require it to stay in power. The only way for them to win is for you to believe that they already have.
