Tim Walz is effectively communicating something that most dem politicians have previously failed at which is “its normal to want government to help people and it’s weird for it to make laws about your sex life”
@Jezibaba omg. you'd think this was a given. what has happened!??!?!
@singlemaltgirl Weird happened. MAGA has to die.
@Jezibaba in a lake of fire.
@singlemaltgirl because there might be an element of fear with those other names. Fear they want, being laughed at is verboten.
@Jezibaba let's all laugh. every time they talk shit about us, let's laugh.
as atwood so famously said:
men are afraid women will laugh at them.
women are afraid men will kill them.
@singlemaltgirl @Jezibaba Laugh! Then call them weirdos. 😀👍
@singlemaltgirl @Jezibaba I do a quote of the day warmup with hs students. I use this quote and its ILLUMINATING. All the girls get it, the boys dont. Leads to great discussions.
@LaurelGreen ask the boys qbout bears 🤔😜 @Jezibaba
1 of my fave things from uni was a prof asking (in a sociology class so fairly mixed)
'men, what safety measures do you take when leaving the uni grounds?'
'women, what safety measures do you take when leaving the uni grounds?'
the discussion that ensued! i've heard that other profs have done variations on this on how diff genders see & experience the world.
i actually did a related blog: https://singlemaltgirl.blogspot.com/2024/06/safety-advice-to-avoid-rape.html
@singlemaltgirl I heart u! The link didnt work out for me. But same, brilliant discussions about safety @Jezibaba
@LaurelGreen oh damn. i'm sorry. it is sensitive so might be blocked by your search engine. it's for 18+
gist of it is: i was talking to a bunch of rape counsellors & the #1 question they get from male relatives of women/girls is: what safety advice would they give for their female relatives to avoid rape?
the answer: “if we are talking evidence, and statistics, the answer is: never go anywhere where there are men.”
@Jezibaba they're such whiny titty babies. the shit they've hurled at kamala has been 10x worse. but they're crying over being called 'weird'? rapist, felon, criminal, sociopath, narcissist doesn't bother them. but weird does.
whiny. titty. babies.
