Running through the 6 with Great Sorrow

unclean = adj. of or pertaining to uncles

joining the war on kids reading any book they want on the side of kids reading any book they want. simply you will be fine. it's even good to be confronted with things you don't understand and even find upsetting, uncomfortable and difficult. it's a surprise tool that will help you later.

And this is a perfect illustration of why it is important for kids to read or variety of things, and why abusers don’t want them to.

Hiding knowledge from kids will not benefit them but only render them helpless when faced with the unknown

I kill your grandad's foes

I'm stealing this. Thanks.

It is so cute to me when an animal is sniffing. There is a smell. They are investigating. They would like to subscribe to this newsletter. With their nose.

Black woman invents or popularises a phrase -> it enters the vernacular and circulates widely amongst Black and nonblack people -> people removed from the phrase's initial context read it too literally, do not interpret it with sensitivity, assume that the ideas expressed when people use it are shallow / "over"-sexualised / problematic in some way or another that mirrors their feelings about Black people as a whole -> there is a backlash where a supposedly more 'thoughtful,' 'subversive,' etc. alternative to the initial phrase is offered, implying that the initial phrase contained none of that complexity within it -> rinse & repeat

In addition, and this is the part that people don't like- you actually should report people for racism in their "offline" life. People don't stop being racist when they log off. If you're a racist online, guess what you'll be at work? A racist. Someone being held accountable for their racist ideology should not be the faux pas- being racist ought to be. Let go of that comfort that Whiteness affords you.
