Coil. Twinkle. Those are the King and Queen of all words. There is nothing but these words and the blackness of the void - and any baked goods, also.

You don't have a male or female brain – the more brains scientists study, the weaker the evidence for sex differences

Rather than distinctly male or female, the human brain is much more like the heart, kidneys and lungs – basically the same no matter the sex of the body it's in.

“This collapse is a telltale sign of a problem known as publication bias. Small, early studies which found a significant sex difference were likelier to get published than research finding no male-female brain difference.”

[mckitterick]

the notes on this are toxic - to help clear up any misunderstanding, here’s the actual science paper:

Dump the “dimorphism”: Comprehensive synthesis of human brain studies reveals few male-female differences beyond size

With the explosion of neuroimaging, differences between male and female brains have been exhaustively analyzed. Here we synthesize three dec

in short: brains are brains

Putting this on my good news blog, because yeah, you know what?

Proof that sexism, transphobia, and bioessentialism are biologically incorrect is absolutely a reason for hope - for society and for the world

post: men do this awful thing

the strongest minds on tumblr dot com: don't forget that WOMEN are EQUALLY BAD and that there is NO DIFFERENCE between the way that men and women are treated in society, so just DON'T FORGET that WOMEN ARE BAD. women are bad. women are bad. women are bad.

i have a post where i mentioned "don't marry a man who won't do dishes" and someone added "dont marry ANYONE who won't do dishes!!!!" and like. hey. do you think there is a historical cultural context for why, specifically, men who refuse to do housework and expect a wife to also act as a live-in maid for him are more of a problem than the reverse.

[junkyarded]

on tumblr, it's more important to remind everybody that women who refuse to do housework are immoral

Excluding the crucial fact that office jobs pay you an income….if staying home to raise children and do chores and bake bread was really so much easier and more joyful than working in an office on some objective level, why aren’t men doing it? Why aren’t they chomping at the bit to be ~leisurely house husbands~ to a working wife? Why aren’t they stepping up to depend solely on someone else’s income in exchange for round-the-clock domestic labor, if it’s really as blissful and their propaganda suggests? Curious.

Thank you! This is such an important reminder.

I like when delivery people ask you to sign their tiny shitty screen with your finger like alright sure we can do some free drawing I guess. Some random strokes that evoke the essence of a signature. Looking me dead in the eyes while I play fruit ninja on this blank screen. Why not.

never really went back to think about the "to be alone" part of this after carol's isolation but it does kind of make that whole thing feel more sinister doesn't it. a reminder to her of how painful loneliness can be. how much better it is to have connection, like them. they knew how much it would hurt her, they're admitting it right here, and they did it anyway

[weshallcontinuewithstyle]

"What carol and koumba diabate did is basically the same" TERRIBLE take

Acquiescing when the person hand picked to be perfect for you makes the first move after 40 days isolation from every damn human on earth is not the same as being barely 2 days into an apocalyptic event and already having a fucking harem set up around you

my grandma was watching the spanish language morning shows this morning and they were interviewing Carlos Manuel Vesga about Pluribus. he said something that i don't think was explicitly clear in the show but informed how he played Manousos, which is that Manousos was originally Colombian and he was forced to migrate to Paraguay. so he had already lost his whole world once before, and when the virus changed the entire world overnight, he wasn't just putting his foot down on principle. he was saying Not Again.
