Every now and then I find someone's writing -- article, comment, post, whatever -- and I just say to myself
"Wow! This is someone I should block on every available outlet to help insulate myself from shitheads like this."
Now, TECHNICALLY I have to hear/read what they're saying in order to grasp it, so one cannot really claim I'm just "rejecting" their ideas.
I rejected their ideas a LONG time before I ever saw them. I'm rejecting CONNECTION with THEM.
And that's not a bad practice, IMO.
okay, also liberating this one from fb for you

I boosted @GinnyMcQueen's toot about this earlier, but Yonatan's response to the Google manifesto deserves a non-CW toot. I know and trust Yonatan and there is substantial wisdom here. https://medium.com/@yonatanzunger/so-about-this-googlers-manifesto-1e3773ed1788

nap urge deflected; will walk with Spouse to bus stop later (in, like, an hour) and get cold Starbucks caffeine thing. I could have a caffeine thing here but the only thing I could have with caffeine is coffee, and I had that yesterday (or day before? in the Recent Past (TM)) and it is Very Bad Idea to push my digestive luck with coffee again so soon.

A merry band of redditors have started taking over hateful subreddits to replace them with more literal versions.

I quite like /r/stormfront myself.

My behemoth article about pan-Asian responses to Taiwan's same-sex marriage ruling is up! https://www.autostraddle.com/in-their-own-words-lgbtq-asia-responds-to-taiwans-same-sex-marriage-ruling-388259/
This is possibly the longest, most in-depth thing I've written (that's not a NaNoWriMo novel) so I'd appreciate shares, comments, and reads!
Thank you :D
