"Children 'held like criminals' inside ICE detention center" - CBS News
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/children-held-like-criminals-inside-ice-detention-center/
I had a very vivid dream that I was in a very Mexican part of the continent.
"It’s easy to look at the child of a celebrity or power couple and see the leg up their family’s wealth, power, and connections got them in their own separate venture or company. And it’s even easier to label them a nepo baby when they benefit from their parent’s money and clout. But the nepo baby trend may extend beyond Hollywood, touching the lives of everyday Americans.
In other words, it’s increasingly obvious that who your parents are has become a more reliable predictor of your wealth than what you actually do for a living.
According to a new working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research, there’s a growing rift between income and wealth generation. For decades, the American Dream was predicated on the fact that hard work and a decent income would lead to homeownership. But the research finds that high earnings no longer correlate directly with wealth generation. Rather, it matters more so today what assets your family owns.
“Those that come from wealthier families that are maybe able to achieve those other economic goals—wealth building, homeownership—I think also could play into a sentiment of a sort of unfairness in the economy,” Max Risch, one of the study’s co-authors and an assistant professor at Carnegie Mellon University, told Fortune.
Even as Wall Street hits successive record highs, Americans are feeling worse and worse about the economy. An April Ipsos poll found that 61% of Americans today feel the economy is on the wrong track. Meanwhile, the May consumer sentiment index hit the lowest level since the University of Michigan started tracking the metric in 1952, lower than during the COVID pandemic and aftermath of the Great Recession. And that may be because even when workers secure steady if not high-paying jobs, they’re increasingly locked out of securing assets to generate wealth."
~ Jake Angelo
"A new study finds escaping your income bracket no longer means building wealth. That disconnect may be what’s driving consumer pessimism to record highs"

"'We could die here, and it feels like no one here would care,' Navdeep said in the ACLU statement.
People being held at Camp East Montana don't receive timely medications to manage a range of serious medical issues such as HIV, cancer and diabetes, according to the lawsuit. In February, the detention center was closed temporarily to visitors because of a measles outbreak, according to Marfa Public Radio. The complaint also describes housing units without windows, crammed spaces and a constant odor of urine and feces, a lack of clean water and reports that detainees receive only two pieces of bread, a piece of ham or bologna, a slice of cheese and a cookie for all three meals."

It's so weird to think that society is finally recognizing that a combination of factors, such as fluctuations in various patterns of your body chemistry and stress related hormones might make some people more prone to bad symptoms that can occur with PCOS / PMOS / Dysmenorrhea, etc. On a more ranty note, if there were times in the past when some people acted like they needed to be complicit with rape culture in order to fit in with their preferred environments, for example, by worshipping a cult leader who raped a 19-year-old hotel maid, and acting as if he were bigger than Jesus and the best girl dad they could think of, and even after a whole bunch of children got killed in a completely unnecessary helicopter crash along with him, they continued wanting to follow their addiction to hero-worshipping abusive patriarchal cult figures even more, well, that certainly didn't make a stressed out body feel any safer. But as more and more people expect to have better lives and stop following the unsafe and unhealed ways that the patriarchy tried to instill in their minds, perhaps there will be more support available to the genetically different (and disadvantaged) ones in the future.
That was weird.🐦⬛

See an enemy...
The universe is always making me do some sort of work. I've started doing some laundry. The out - of - unit laundry machines take quarters. That's kind of nice and old-fashioned nowadays. But I guess I'm supposed to make money now. The universe needs to make the Patriarchal Cult's systems start paying me!
When I was a little kid in the Pacific Northwest, there was a question on a multiple choice test about a sea anemone. I think it was about what happens if you poke a sea anemone with a stick.
The choices were something like the following:
A. It squirts water.
B. It closes up.
C. It moves away.
D. It screams in agony.
Now unfortunately, something in my little fourth grade brain was so addled by the last answer being an actual choice on a test that I started to laugh hysterically, and I could not stop laughing, and it disrupted the class, so I got in trouble for it. But I went home and I told the adults about it and they also thought it was a funny choice to have on a test, and they thought I shouldn't have gotten in trouble for laughing. I was like Yay! They're on my side! So just keeping that in mind, here's a writing prompt that some people could play with:
"Hey, you're not the only fish in the sea!"
It's possible one could substitute the following:
A.
Flower...meadow.
B.
Bridesmaid... Bridal tribe.
C.
Alpha. Beta. Gamma. Sigma. Omega. Whatever else is category in whatever else packs of fraternity brothers are supposed to be doing.D.

What struck me most while scrolling through those toxic comment sections was the glaring disparity in how different women on that same line-up were treated."

"Take a Sexy Picture of Me (And Tell Me Why You Hate It)"
"Big Weekend was a masterclass in female talent. On Saturday, we had Zara Larsson delivering pristine, high-energy pop, while Sunday brought Olivia Dean’s effortless, soulful warmth to the stage. Both are incredible artists. Both are vocal, passionate advocates for women in the industry, routinely standing up for 'the girls' and pushing back against patriarchal nonsense.
Yet their comment sections were not warzones. They were granted a level of grace and basic humanity that was completely denied to CMAT.
And to be abundantly clear, this is not a criticism of Olivia Dean or Zara Larsson. The issue is not that some women are treated well; it’s that our culture subconsciously grants certain women an invisible pass to simply exist as artists without their physical form becoming the primary discourse. Commercial attractiveness functions almost like social camouflage. Because some women fit the traditional, manicured pop-star blueprint, their presence doesn’t disrupt the consumer. They are allowed to skip the toll booth."

Well, it would make me feel better...
to believe that only naive acolytes of Donald Trump are so wretchedly fatphobic; however...
He's probably reincarnated with different genetics by now.
Talk to a patriarchal father figure with a certain types of genetics who loved criticizing women if they gained any bit of weight. Especially even just a tiny bit in their face. And then he loved to shove pastries in his mouth every time he passed a bakery.
Donuts are what people with Superior genetics can eat.
And when I was younger, if I ate a donut, I didn't gain that much weight. I was a much smaller sized version of a PCOS person, so I know what I'm f****** talking about.
Everybody needs to get therapy now!
My excuse for some is that if your dad was nicer to your mom you would have treated women and girls better.
Anyways, it's the first time I've heard this song.
CMAT - "Take A Sexy Picture Of Me (Official Video)"
Thanks to this coming up on my feed.
CMAT shares ‘deep sadness’ over body-shaming after BBC Radio 1 Big Weekend performance | CMAT | The Guardian
It's not everyone's safe space!
"Being spiritually shallow so I can fit in better with a patriarchal culture is my safe space."
Patriarchy.
"My lack of menstrual blood and less fat on my body make me feel SO Superior to the ones who are always performing the most acts of unpaid labor which keep our society running."
Besides just a basic survival strategy and probably having some extra money in your life.
Please tell me in detail what you got out of acting like abusive men and shallow patriarchal women were more important than the kinds of girls and women you treated like garbage. Because that's exactly what you were trained to do and you f****** did it, more than you want to admit. That's why you're not trustworthy, because that's what you resorted to doing. Every time things get a little bit tough for you. Lots of things are tough for lots of people. But you have to be special. And feel Superior and more able to fit in with patriarchal people. You're not locked away in a facility, are you? Are you feeling well off enough yet to want to change the poisonous toxic attitudes, or no?
Honestly, shallowness is probably a sickness that just needs to die out.
I cannot wait to see the grandchildren who will be raised to treat all kinds of girls and women with fat (lol) with far more respect than the people in my generation were.
I think I might go get a donut today afterall!
"Instagram. TikTok. Facebook. BBC uploads. Every comment section polluted with the exact same fixation on her appearance that inspired the song in the first place. The same tired cruelty. The same faux concern. The same dehumanising obsession with evaluating whether a woman is visually acceptable enough to deserve public affection.
And honestly, I think that says something much darker about the culture surrounding female performers.
We live in a music culture that worships emotional vulnerability from women on the track, yet completely denies basic physical humanity to the women creating it."

"Take a Sexy Picture of Me (And Tell Me Why You Hate It)"
Of course I should read this now.
"Take a Sexy Picture of Me (And Tell Me Why You Hate It)"
"One of the most poignant moments of the set came during Take a Sexy Picture of Me. Before performing it, CMAT once again spoke openly about why she wrote the song: the horrific abuse she received about her appearance following her previous Big Weekend performance several years ago in Luton. The backlash became so severe that the BBC eventually disabled comments under clips from the set. Yet here she was again, returning to the exact same festival with the exact same body, the exact same energy and the exact same refusal to make herself smaller or more digestible for public comfort. The crowd screamed every word back at her. It felt emotional to witness what was, in many ways, a full-circle moment.Then I opened social media."

The need to feel "Superior in a Specific Way" is still strong with some, sadly.

A more honest and articulate culture is currently in gestation.
To be more articulate about how much other factors have also been a part of your success (in addition to all of your hard work, of course) would also be such a gift.
Healing from trauma is a long journey sometimes.
I'll keep an eye out for the ones whose kids won't be as discriminatory towards the outcasts as the other patriarchal parents wanted / were training theirs to be, in order to fit in with their preferred standards.
I'm glad that seeing some stuff get acknowledged is getting more popular now, though.
Acknowledging the existence of PMOS and rape culture is getting SO much more popular now!
"Ostracized by everyone who was doing it the 'right way.'"
Because why would they want to know anything about someone with your kind of issues or genetics when the Patriarchy clearly didn't want them to.
Can the PCOS / PMOS/ Perimenopausal also do the musical donut eating kind of protest or...
Somehow I need to transition from the full-time focus on processing a bunch of trauma and/or karmic stuff and learning more about self-parenting and other health-related topics to making money again soon. Or figure out how make that all happen simultaneously.

Just had a memory of being in a waiting room in a dentist's office.
When a woman who had immigrated here from another country with her two children (and I believe she was well connected with a Christian organization or church group) was telling them that "Grandpa Trump" was going to help them. The little girl who was younger seemed to believe her (and repeated what she said). The boy was several years older, and he seemed to question her a little bit.

More than 200 of these places exist. I would expect that all of them have some children's parents in them.

I have to be very careful because I just jammed my thumb into the door for no reason, like bent it back at a weird angle. And I honestly wonder if it made a weird sound. And wow, it hurts a lot and it's being iced now. But I don't think it's broken or dislocated, but it just got stretched to its limit and it needs the ice pack.
Of course, jokes are all in good fun and everything, but seriously.
Like, the whole phenomenon of jailing pregnant people (in biologically female bodies) for miscarriages, but still not jailing any rich men for the Epstein files crap is really... DISTURBING.

I suppose sometimes people do change for the better.
I wonder if the blonde mom babysitter who seemed to not like certain types of children more than others is a grandma now?
Hashtag Celeb News? Gee...
Who's making this happen?

Why do the bad people gotta be so racist?

You know what I remember the dad on this TV show whining about...
"Eight Is Enough" - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_Is_Enough
Okay, so back then, apparently he was able to support his gargantuan family on a newspaper columnist's salary, which I have no idea how that could ever happen today, and I have no memory of him wanting to fling himself over a cliff because he couldn't afford to feed all those mouths, but when his birthday rolled around, he was moaning and groaning about he was "half a century old" on his birthday. It was a real source of pain for him to feel like he was getting old, and that's how he put it. Anyways, that's my main memory of that show. I haven't checked it. I haven't gone back to try to find the episode or anything. It was not my favorite show. It was just something that was on our little black and white TV set. After our year of not having a TV. But I'm glad we did get a TV, because we watched "Amadeus" on it.
What does this say?
"Massachusetts to issue statewide ICE guidance for schools, hospitals, churches"
You don't like it? Go back in time and talk to the blonde babysitters.
God works in mysterious ways!
The blonde teenage not-a-mom babysitter was awesome. The blonde married land-owning mom babysitter was unwell and in denial about how racist she was acting in front of little kids. She was either in denial, or else she didn't care.
