Some Twittervism to Tide You Over Until the Weekend
I still have a lot more work to do on a big essay about some revelations and my attendance at a forum put on by a progressive socialist activist group this weekend. To tide you, my readers, over, though, how about some Twittervism? There's been a lot of fuel out there to throw out some angsty posts. Are you reading 2017 fiction for the Nebulas or Hugos? Here is a list of all of the Uncanny stories and which categories they are eligible in! https://t.co/A5HRuTIvpx pic.twitter.com/Ti8bNhcpxY It's not called "Chain Migration". It's "Family Unification", originally put into place for Eurocentric reasons, and not as easy as [45] wants you to think. https://t.co/E4FV8E6lDa Excellent piece by @fivefifths. — Five Decades of White Backlash https://t.co/9LokDFQUf5 [Intention doesn't soften or excuse impact. Politicians, Media, & Influencers must stop enabling bigots & explicitly unaware bigoted behavior. If you're challenged, it's time to admit you're 99.99% chance bigot.] Go ahead, admit you're a racist - CNN https://t.co/Od2wG35NfJ Oh. . .wow. Glad I never got into using a cryptocurrency as actual currency. Just the accounting for gains & losses for income taxes just sounds like a huge headache. https://t.co/EPnpif1CJ2 [FINALLY! They're calling our that weasel, Stephen Miller.] A 's-show': Relationships fray in immigration fight - CNNPolitics https://t.co/koOovWpKBx "Your silence and your amnesia is complicity”: Sen. Cory Booker unleashes on Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen after she says she doesn’t remember President Trump using the word “shithole” to refer to African countries at the DACA meeting https://t.co/tPCw1t4SSR pic.twitter.com/HY3ff6M637 Don't know about anyone else, but [45] kinda reminds me of King George III. He de-regulates then lets Congress do whatever it wants. Well, let's do what US Citizens do best. Let's resist to stay free! If it i wouldn't get tedious, I would put infinite "really"'s in the middle of saying how much I don't like Stephen MIller. He has totally rubbed me the wrong way with the hate that emanates from him & all his sniveling sneering he does on TV. I REALLY HATE THAT GUY! Damnit! LBJ was the great earmark deal maker. He got the Civil Rights Act passed with earmarks. https://t.co/zl72oQxsK0 Did Secretary DHS Kierstjen Nielsen pretty much say that there was tough language used by "both sides"? I rarely like Lindsey Graham, but I'm behind him questioning Trump's inconsistency & calling out Stephen Miller. https://t.co/b2Beh9JL3g Being the target of multiple sexual assaults at the end of the date is more than just a "bad date". Dudes, if you can't stop yourself, follow Pence's advice & don't be alone with a woman unless she says "Let's do it." Go back into public if she rejects you once. Hard stop. And the lack of such a unit or class does not excuse people who have assaulted or abused other people. At best, it implicates society, norms, & our society & heritage for properly teaching people consent. [This hurts: Weinstein bad b/c he has power over those he assaulted, Ansari didn't; women must say no on own, reporter teaching daughters to say no; teach sons not to rape but it's not rape/assault now?] Let's be honest about Aziz Ansari (Opinion) - CNN https://t.co/YdzLGapPlG [Should Chief of Staff John Kelly be controlling Stephen Miller more? Will we see Miller thrown to the curb soon? PLEASE! PRETTY PLEASE!!] John Kelly to Democrats: Some of Trump's campaign stances 'uninformed' - CNNPolitics https://t.co/KFsqJxLLfu [Is the backlash against Grace because she wasn't a Strong Female Character trope, like women "are supposed to be"?] I hate Strong Female Characters https://t.co/WktgqDdsvz [O topic this week. Let's not just look at How US culture encourages especially men to sexually assault, let's look at underlying issue. Men, we need to be better] Don’t Blame Mental Illness for Mass Shootings; Blame Men - POLITICO Magazine https://t.co/BJcOnRy9K8 . @UncannyMagazine Celebrates Reader Favorites of 2017!https://t.co/xh6GRGUDXV Good episode re: sexual misconduct in restaurants & how parity cuts down on the BS. One really crude dude was able to "read the room" & realize his joke wouldn't work. Yes, a crude dude had the presence of mind to see a sexual comment wasn't cool. https://t.co/M8Dk4q367w Dear straight white men: Get used to waiting your turn. Get used to being talked over sometimes. Get used to being occasionally overlooked despite the quality of your work. Get used to often being in the minority in a room. Everyone else has had to. Women can tell the difference between Ansari and Weinstein - Vox https://t.co/69wcaxH6GX [If you are interested in a sexual event, relationship, or just looking to affect someone emotionally, think of yourself as having to meet a fiduciary standard.
