"work in progress" is actually so misleading like it assumes that im actually making progress on my work

not to talk about the hp show but it's wild to me that jkr was like publicly and explicitly like "the last set of child actors have denounced my bigotry, I want a new set of child actors to groom. create a television program so I can have new children" and everyone was just like ok joanne! :) here's your new children! :)

thewickedbohemian

Leaving aside the weird framing of using the term grooming, now that we're past the point of no return enough that we've got trailers out, the new set have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever and denounce her bigotry where she can't back out or just scrap everything thus forcing her to be around their views enough that they might deradicalize her

creekfiend

I mean, she is explicitly upset that the last cast of kids broke away from her shit because she 'made them what they are' and wants to like. start fresh with a new batch of children. so she is hoping the outcome here will be that these kids follow her ideology into adulthood, bc of the outsized role she knows she is going to have in their lives. that's grooming. like that's a textbook case of grooming. grooming doesn't have to be sexual, sexual grooming is just one type of grooming. using your power and influence to try to mold kids' minds so that they agree with your ideology is also grooming.

reasonablywittyatbest

Yeah man that's grooming but you'll never see people agreeing because it would make people have to deeply reflect on the role of religion in society

i once referred to the purpose of veggietales as 'indoctrination of children,' and despite the fact that the most literal and original definition of that word is 'train into christians with correct beliefs' people got really offended.

this is a relatively recent phenomenon (indoctrinate was broadly considered a morally neutral word up to like the 60s) so I'd argue we are seeing some kind of ongoing culture shift around conceptualizing the rights of children.

no way of knowing ofc where we're going to land.

Pedestrian traffic lights

Ooooh, we have a bunch of really fancy pedestrian traffic lights in Germany! I need to share:

Starting off with the difference between formerly Eastern German traffic lights (upper images) and formerly Western German traffic lights (lower images):

The city of Erfurt had some additions, like an umbrella or a heart:

my favorite part of derry girls was just how accurately it portrayed being a normal person in a time of crisis. obviously the events in derry are very much real and ireland has experienced decades of political conflict, and this DOES impact the main characters in a lot of ways, but they still also…. go to school. worry about their friends and birthday parties and being together. because they’re just teenage girls (+ james) and that resonated with me a lot, especially now

United Front: Breasts Without the Airbrush

The shocking thing about Laura Dodsworth’s pictures of 100 women’s breasts isn’t the flesh on show, or the many shapes and sizes, but the realisation that images of unairbrushed, non-uniform breasts seem to be so rare. “We see images of breasts everywhere,” says the 41-year-old photographer, “but they’re unreal. They create an unflattering comparison but also an unobtainable ideal. I wanted to rehumanise women through honest photography.”

i don’t know why you’re being a bitch when it would actually be great for lesbians (and everyone ) if people (like the woman in the op) realized they don’t have to date and can be happy/fulfilled alone. like that’s kind of the solution… instead of trying to sub in women that they aren’t for real into because they don’t enjoy dating men, they can just… opt to not date.
