“But I didn’t and still don’t like making a cult of women’s knowledge, preening ourselves on knowing things men don’t know, women’s deep irrational wisdom, women’s instinctive knowledge of Nature, and so on. All that all too often merely reinforces the masculinist idea of women as primitive and inferior – women’s knowledge as elementary, primitive, always down below at the dark roots, while men get to cultivate and own the flowers and crops that come up into the light. But why should women keep talking baby talk while men get to grow up? Why should women feel blindly while men get to think?”

— Ursula K. Le Guin

Jo in Little Women: "I find it poor logic to say that because women are good, women should vote. Men do not vote because they are good; they vote because they are male, and women should vote, not because we are angels and men are animals, but because we are human beings and citizens of this country."

going to start acting like i don't know anything about america. "people who aren't old enough to drink yet" ummmm we were talking about 19 year olds? they have been old enough to drink for a year now! you might be a little confused 😁

I definitely understand that it's annoying when people make assumptions, says the intersex AFAB person who has serious disability because of the assumption that forced gender surgery is a great idea.

However.

You walked on a website that's like 80% USAmericans, based in the US, and are complaining that USAmericans are discussing US norms without caveats.

There's 195 nations the UN recognizes; 205 on the Wiki list; Indigenous "tribes" in the US actually should be considered a nation each, so we're probably more like 300 just from the US; obviously indigenous people in other recognized nations add several hundred...

Yeah, you like the color of the caveat? Because I sure don't.

[dramatic-dolphin]

ok.

[dramatic-dolphin]

you tell americans "don't assume everyone is from the usa" and they will say "you want me to list every country and culture my statement DOESN'T apply to before i say anything??????? is that what you want??????" you know what yeah, that IS what i want now. start listing.

[mlembug]

usamericans will let their internet companies grow into monopolistic megacorporations eliminating all the competing companies within their country while having a regime that expects competition to exist in order to ~innovate~, use the imperial spoils to outcompete local websites in other countries and drag them into bankruptcy, and then complain about non-usamericans daring to exist on their websites

[marxism-ex-silium]

also the first replier is incorrect: 45.7% of tumblrs userbase is usamerican. Not 80%. Although you all are so loud and obnoxious it often feels like 99%. This info is one google away and yet they sem unable to find it. Can't let facts get in the way of uscentrism can we.

[hagiomoto]

Only 45.7% of Tumblr are USAmericans

[peggy-carters-hat-maker]

"average person on tumblr is usamerican" factoid actualy just statistical error. tumblr users are only 45.7% american. Americas Georg, who lives in cave & blogs over everyone at 100,000 words each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

wait now i’m curious what’s everyone’s go-to pair of shoes

[sabertoothwalrus]

hello instagram artist. your challenge is to do a portrait study of a woman but you’re not allowed to stylize them so their eyes are really big and more cat eyed than the reference photo. You’re also not allowed to make their noses more of a button nose or their lips full and pouty or their faces heart shaped with no double chin. Also you have to draw a fat woman. one thats actually fat and not just slightly curvier than the kpop demon hunters body type. good luck

Your middle aged Aunts lead the first online charge for yaoi and your great Aunts lead the first conventions for fandoms and wrote yaoi fanfiction on paper. (It just wasn’t called that at the time)

Sometimes they didn’t even show anyone. Sometimes they showed a few fellow fans.

You simply live now, following in their footsteps path they laid.

On a related note, passed my way by a friend:

My favouritest sport fact ever is that in 1990s 2 cardiac surgeons watched an f1 race to save the lives of countless kids. The Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children (GOSH) kept losing the lives of patients after successful heart surgeries. Specifically the 10-15 minutes after a bonefide clinically successful surgery patients would die:

And so the two surgeons filmed a handover after heart surgery and sent it to the Ferrari pitcrew who were told to critique and improve handover process

And from this:

we got this:

The error rate during patien handovers dropped from 30% to 10% with the F1 informed protocol.

I literally love this fact so much because being an pitcrew member is such a thankless job because theyre underpaid and overworked mechanics and they literally saved lives in this instance.

When Formula 1 Met Medicine: The F1 Pit Stop That Saved Lives

Doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital turned to Formula 1 for answers. By studying Ferrari’s pit-stop teamwork, they redesigned how patien

I love this!

And it that it wasn't a one and done.

The doctors went to the race tracks to watch the car changes and the pit crews went to the hospitals and watched a live transfer and offered suggestions and they kept working with them to improve.

After there was a successful improvement of the most vital metrics of a handover of a patient from surgery to ICU, the pit crews also worked with other hospitals for other procedures and it's now a whole thing of trying to apply the specialized, streamlined and speedy teamwork and nonverbal coordination of pit crews to other high-risk fields.

This is a perfect example of how two very different fields of knowledge meeting can make a huge leap forward in progress.

however unhealthy and problematic, the sexiness of cigarettes in film and media is so much more interesting and compelling than seeing someone sucking on a vape. there is absolutely nothing horny about it to counteract the terrible health effects. embarrassing

yknow its interesting how something can impact one demographic in a completely different way than everyone else. in the exorcist when the demon starts speaking in greek, to most people its creepy. but if youre greek and you suddenly start hearing the demon speak perfect fucking greek its genuinely the biggest scare of the movie. you just do not expect to ever hear your language in american movies so it catches you so badly off guard, it feels like the movie is talking directly to you

[liquidstar]

the first time my dad saw it, it was with his american friends. and when she started speaking greek he turned to one of them and was like "re malaka did you hear that in english?"

[roadhogsbigbelly]

the thing that's dumb about the whole "can you be a fan of a video game if you're watching gameplay on youtube rather than playing the game yourself" discourse, is that people keep comparing that to "reading the wikipedia summary", when to me it's more comparable to "listening to an audiobook" because listening to a story being read is a fundamentally different experience from reading the book yourself, But i think it would be strange if people argued that listening to an audiobook means you're not experiencing the story at all. just because it's not the way you're generally suppose to engage with books as medium.
