“Being a man makes you Contaminated In Some Way and women having romantic contact with men are Suffering” is radfem koolaid.

I just tried to wish someone “good luck” and my phone suggested I instead say “girlcock”
I just thought ya’ll should know.
I was gonna make a joke edit of the “boobs morning!” anime screenshot so that she’s saying “girlcock!” but you’d never guess what happens when you search “boobs morning meme”.
how long are radio stations gonna say “80s, 90s, and today!” We’ve entered the third decade of “today”
I work at an oldies station. Every six months we sit down look around the table and someone goes “Y'know, we could start adding ‘90s to the mix. It’s within our format.” We all nod and no one plays anything produced after 1989 because time stopped here sometime around 2003, and no one wants to be the one responsible for whatever consequences come from breaking that fragile illusion.
not to be boring, but I’m boring
There’s a reason for that, and it’s Napster and iTunes. People could suddenly buy and listen to whatever music they wanted to, whenever they wanted to. Starting around 2003, we were no longer all forced by media conglomerates to listen to the same few songs anymore, endlessly repeated on the radio till we were sick of them.
So our taste scattered, in a way that I find really beautiful. The long tail was born. The rise of the indie musician began. The 1,000 true fans theory (briefly) become a possibility, and record labels lost their chokehold grip on both artists and listeners.
But! Also!
Collective nostalgia also froze at that point. After 2003, we only culturally shared the experience of a song or two a year, and often we did that for a reason external to the song itself – like a dance or a controversy or the rise of a new platform (“Gangnam Style,” “WAP,” “Old Town Road”). The songs that we have in common now, we no longer have in common because we are forced to listen to them four hundred times a month by record labels, radio stations, and MTV, but for other reasons. The advent of truly open personal choice in music was also the end of collective music culture.
i definitely think minecraft wonโt be the game for everyone in the end and thatโs just how things are no problem but i do think *some* people who donโt get the hype of it just need to play with their friends and build a house with them. its also for doing things like this.
On this day, 19 July 1883, thousands of telegraphers working for Western Union across the United States walked out on strike demanding equal pay for equal work for men and women, along with other demands, like a pay increase and an eight-hour day.
The bosses had threatened the previous day that if equal pay were implemented, it would mean that they would prefer to just use men, who they alleged “can be availed of for a greater variety of service than women”. The workers, organised in the Brotherhood of Telegraphers, ignored the threats and after management failed to respond to them, walked out.
The strike began when Frank R. Phillips stood on a table in the New York office and blew a whistle. Beginning in major cities, the strike spread to rural areas. In Concord, North Carolina, the lone operator Mary Ormand walked out, and the Home and Democrat newspaper reported her office was shut and wires cut by Western Union as they “could not persuade the brave Miss Ormand to be false to her womanhood.” In total around 8,000 workers across the country participated in the strike, including between 300 and 1,000 women. Western Union was determined to break the workers, and decided to try to starve them back to work.
The strikers had hoped to received support from the Knights of Labor union, but when this did not occur, the strikers were eventually forced to return to work defeated after their funds ran out. Some managers decided not to rehire strike activists, although some strikers refused to return on principle. One woman told a reporter “I will never touch a key again in my life… I would rather cut off my right hand than humiliate myself by asking for my old place.”
