Think about this:

We searched a vast ocean for years for any sign of MH-370, but we can’t take a few weeks to sift a landfill for two victims we know are in there. We’re not even going to try on a limited basis.

This country is still racist as fuck.

Back in Berlin my daughter, 14, had the first sports lesson at a new school. Teacher, around 50, female, explained the dress code: No tight-fitting shorts, no wide necklines, girls with large "bust sizes" must wear a sports bra. Anything else would "irritate the boys". Daughter felt deeply unsettled and sexualised by that. At her Irish school last year the (male) sports teacher told the students "Your body belongs to you, you must feel comfortable."

The series, produced under the working title Constellation, was commissioned by Apple TV+ and is one of the most expensive TV series ever filmed in Europe. You cause big problems to entrepreneurs in Finland. They may even go backrupt because of you. 😡🤬

Orban shakes hands with Putin

This is outrageous. As a European citizen, I'm disgusted.

It happened in China in the Silk Road Summit.

Why? Hungary still buys Russian gas. Russia is building a nuclear plant in Hungary (Paks). Orban wants to mess with the West.

Hungary will take the EU rotating presidency in summer '24.

I hope this picture comes back to bite Orban in the ass. Hungarian people deserve better.

Today in 'Shitty Art-world Gatekeepers Treating Artists Shittily' news...

Wondering what happened to some applications that took days and days to put together, I find that @arselectronica who run an EU Digital Deal residency are not even bothering to notify losers! Only winners contacted.

No feedback was bad enough. Now, not even a courtesy 'no thank you'.

Shame on you, Ars Electronica.

Shame on all you gatekeepers who think it's fine to treat people this way.

Evidence that there are some people who have no . Two people turned down gongs in Liz 's resignation list. But 14 others have accepted! Imagine spending the rest of your life as Sir or Lord Something and everyone knowing you got it from Liz Truss. These people are on a different planet than most of us

To shame denial is to as yet incomplete.

Shame for getting stuck mid-process doesn't tend to encourage folk to complete such process.

Yet ours is a society that shames mourning as a somehow unjust imposition on others.

Ours is a society that needs better tools to more wholeheartedly do the work of mourning.

Ours is a society that needs better tools to more adeptly process and work through shame.

When enough folk get stuck—we are all stuck.

We've work to do… to get unstuck.

#Shame and #Circumcision in #Africa (preprint)

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/369884791_Shame_and_Circumcision_in_Africa_preprint

"What is revealed is experiences of shame are largely a consequence of demands of communities of respect where one’s social identity overrides one’s individual identity. ... the uncircumcised as well as those circumcised outside cultural dictates ... would suffer shame on account of having transgressed or overlooked their cultural responsibilities, which effectively delegitimizes their societal belonging."

The Crimes and Dangers of Elliott Abrams

To honor those who have died and suffered from the fires Biden nominee Elliott Abrams lit and fanned abroad, we must stop his appointment.

Under Abrams’ watch, over the 12 years of the Reagan/Bush Sr. administrations, 75,000 Salvadorians were killed. In the village of El Mozote, the army’s Atlácatl Battalion herded women and children into a church convent and opened fire with U.S.-supplied M-16 automatic rifles

So, no obligations on Hamas not to commandeer civilian infrastructure, or target civilians for that matter? No obligations to release hostages and bodies? No obligations imposed to not steal humanitarian aid? It's all on Israel? Fine, but you've just prolonged the war by removing Hamas's impetus to negotiate.

Writing about your own life is quite hard.

Some things might get clearer, and some things might hurt.

There's a lot of shame involved as well; i'm raised with shame, and still being shamed by many - even in the non-communication towards me is their shaming of me, and it comes from several angles.
This makes a heavy shame-load upon my shoulders, and i don't want to bear it. Writing might unload it, i don't know (yet).

If the resigns now, it's unfortunate that his career is overshadowed by an over-zealous corporate media desperate to publicly ruin another black role model for daring public service and having integrity.

Growing up, Mimi felt ashamed because she wasn’t like other #girls, but a chance discovery at 21 changed that. >>>

When she was first told about the enzyme deficiency, she says she was "reassured that I was...a girl, but that I just couldn't do the things that typical girls could do. I was also told that I couldn't tell my siblings or friends about this."

This is infuriating. “Anat Sultan-Dadon, consul general of Israel, described the act as an expression of “hate and incitement toward Israel.”

“The sanctity of life is our highest value,” she said in a statement on Friday. “Our prayers are with the security officer who was injured while trying to prevent this tragic act.”

Altruistic suicide is the sacrifice of one's life in order to save others, it’s been practiced by Buddhist for many centuries.
