"The rights of woman," says Dr. Peck, "considered in the economic sphere, seem to involve her in competition with men in the struggle for jobs." It does seem so indeed, and this is hardly to be wondered at; for the competition began to appear when the men took over the women's jobs by transferring them from the home to the factory. The mediaeval woman had effective power and a measure of real (though not political) equality, for she had control of many industries -- spinning, weaving, baking, brewing, distilling, perfumery, preserving, pickling -- in which she worked with head as well as hands, in command of her own domestic staff. But now the control and direction -- all the intelligent part -- of those industries have gone to the men, and the women have been left, not with their "proper" work but with employment in those occupations. And at the same time, they are exhorted to be feminine and return to the home from which all intelligent occupation has been steadily removed.

So a lot of political scandals just dropped in the last 24 hours
-NC Governor Candidate Mark Robinson's online posts were found, including some VERY graphic descriptions (like seriously, do not read if you're not 18) of him cheating on his wife, calling himself a black Nazi, and expressing support for reinstituting slavery. His email address was also found on Ashley Madison
-Robert F Kennedy Jr was revealed to be cheating on his wife with a reporter (and that isn't even the weirdest thing since federal law enforcement opened an investigation into him allegedly cutting off the head of a whale and taking it home with him less than 24 hours ago)
-GOP Senate candidate who is the CEO of a bank has been found accepting millions of dollars from what seem to allegedly be Mexican drug cartels.
-Finally, probably the biggest bombshell, according to multiple eyewitness testimonies within sealed sworn affadavits, Congressman Matt Gaetz allegedly invited a 17-year-old girl to a drug-fueld sex party
And we haven't even hit October, folks. Again, these are all still breaking news stories, so things are subject to change, but oh man oh man.
#politics cw#genuinely I think/hope this election cycle is what drives a stake through the heart of the maga movement#especially since Trump doesn't have much time left himself#edit: I messed up and had the wrong article for the whale story#just fixed it!

random fire nation diplomat #492 will never understand the complex and fucked up relationship between the water siblings like I do 🙄
#and they were forced to raise each other...#baked bean originals#avatar the last airbender#atla#katara#sokka#sorry hakoda i don't think you count#couldn't have you just left one dude back home instead of giving your 13 yr old kid a martyr complex#cmon man#i don't think he's a bad dad but that was not the best decision

Sure sure romantic pairings are fine and all. But more people should perhaps consider two characters loving each other to the point of incomprehensibility. To the point that there is no simpler way in english to define or describe it than just to say those characters’ names together, joined eternally by the vague conjunction ‘and’. There’s so many types of love and dependencies and emotions in general thrown in there that you can’t tell what colors they are anymore, they’ve just joined into a giant blobby mess that’s almost black, but when you look closer glistens with more colors than there are names for. Just a thought
#make yourself confused when it’s time to tag a fic and you’re left staring at / and & pondering the inner workings of english#and the nature of love as a whole#aromantic#aroace#writing#linguistics#I just get tired of romance being the default sometimes don’t mind me#star rambles#star gushes
