"Menopause can challenge women leaders but increase empathy"
It came after this:
"Meanwhile, the Trump administration decided to choose this week, of all weeks, to weaken Title IX protections for sexual assault and harassment victims on campus. The Department of Education officially repealed 2024 Biden-era regulations that provided full protection from all “sex-based harassment,” the definition of which was broadened to include “sexual violence and unwelcome sex-based conduct.” The Biden-era rule also offered protections for LGBTQ+ and pregnant students. (The DOE admits it has not enforced those rules since Trump was re-elected, anyway.)
The United States isn’t the only place where racists try to deny history. On Sunday morning, Indigenous Insider’s Brandi Morins reports, masked white supremacists showed up at the site of a former assimilation school in Kamloops, B.C., Canada, where, its indigenous community says, hundreds of children were buried in a mass grave.
Finally, a posi side effect of menopause."

I think the time for a cultural shift in values is now.
X: It feels like something's happening now that I wish had happened years ago because of how people are talking about the Cornell case.
Y: But why now? What about that guy at Stanford? What about Bill Cosby?
X: That was different because it was one person. People could point at them and say those are the bad apples. But this is about groups of people and people are talking about how men collectively as a group act and how it's harmful. It's the seven guys who raped the girl. But it's also the other guys in the fraternity who got the text, the fifty who didn't do anything to stop it. And it's the men in charge at the school, and how they acted like it wasn't very important, and they didn't care about it. It's about how a lot of men have been behaving collectively about this topic, and a lot of people are finally speaking up about it and criticizing it and saying it's wrong.
Also, I know this is not necessarily how other people feel, and I know that it's not on purpose, but do you know how I feel when somebody or when groups of people collectively decide that, say, an athlete who is very rich and supported by our patriarchal society is accused of raping somebody and they decide to say that she lied and that he's the good one. That to me feels not that different from the fifty other ones who didn't bother to stop something bad happening. They didn't rape somebody, but they also didn't care enough to stop it from happening or to acknowledge her as a human being.
I understand that it's not exactly the same thing but emotionally and psychologically that's how it feels to me. It feels like a lot of people are not that different from those fifty others in the fraternity who just couldn't be bothered to care.
And it's been going on like this for so long, and this is the first time people seem to be collectively standing up together to say that's not good enough, and human beings in our society deserve better than this.
Y nods, either in recognition or in agreement.
Finally, feeling more respected. Finally, feeling more believed!

For lunch, I got a burger and fries combo and even though I ordered the small size of everything and only ate half the fries I feel terrible. I did laundry and I went for a walk after the meal and it was real difficult. I'm sure this would have been better.

It's good for people to see, acknowledge and articulate their point of views about what has been happening.
Patriarchal Society has wanted people to be quietly self-absorbed and to dehumanize the disenfranchised. And a lot of times, patriarchal people do get sucked into going along with what the Patriarchal Society has wanted them to do. Because they get short-term benefits from doing so. And that's been pretty sad to see and experience in this lifetime. But now, people are starting to get more articulate and willing to share their impressions and their opinions and their ideas and experiences.

Happy transition thoughts?
I loved the staircase of my grandmother's house. I still have good memories about it. It was an important space. I think I must have spent so many happy moments on it, anticipating either what was awaiting me upstairs or what was going to greet me down the stairs. Immediately upstairs where the bedrooms and immediately downstairs was the well-lit kitchen. And that was a place of creation and meals and blessings because prayers were always said before the meals. Upstairs, prayers were said before sleep, too. Love!

This is this life when your body says you need to make changes and take better care of it
Everything was real, and part of an important process, and yet it all has to go by the wayside anyway for something new.
I interrupted my fun Miss Western, I mean, my fun Midwestern documentary watching or whatever.
Looking up stuff about Illinois and getting nostalgic. That side of my personality that wants to be from a cozy little community is starting to come up. I don't know what to do with it. I'll just acknowledge that it's there. It's alive... I need to make myself do something cozy now. I think I need hot water. I need protection.
I think it's a good time to think about artistic endeavors.
Business can be creative, but I prefer artistic endeavors. There's more freedom, and there's more acceptance that there will be failure. Sometimes artists don't even get appreciated that much in their lifetime, and then after they pass away, people really appreciate their work. Well I don't know why that is important to me but for some reason it is right now. Maybe that could change in the future.
People are good. People can get better.
I feel like I've been doing some of what I should be doing, but it's been a bit challenging and scary sometimes, too. I've just been in the middle of having a human experience. It's been a certain type of experience. I think I might read that bell hooks book about love again this evening. I need feminist viewpoints in my life. Others don't seem to need that as much, but I really do. What is the nature of love when the universe want you to pursue it when it doesn't follow the script? That's an interesting question.
I know a lot of things can get better.
I'm really tired. Feels like years of suffering have worn me down. This is why I wanted to learn how to repair my health and feel better. It's like the body deserves so much better than what the insensitive patriarchal culture has to offer it.
The calmer state is coming back. It is possible. It can happen.
I am blessed to be able to see puffy clouds out the window and I think pressing on some points on my head without really knowing what I was doing has helped. I texted my sister while she's in O'Hare, which I used to live near. Other people are traveling for a funeral and I'm staying here. Travel seems better at another time. Maybe I can have a very zoned out week. Maybe I will change a lot of things about how I perceive and process this life. The calmness. I court the calmness.
I want to find a world that's more charitable and see examples of it.
I think charity is better than capitalistic success. It's better for the heart and the soul. Just let me fail. Let me cry. Let me rest. I don't even need that much. Apparently I didn't even need to eat lentil soup and gluten free sourdough. Peacefulness...
Staying home and learning things.
Like how to take better care of the body. Can't even eat lentil soup with parsley and gluten-free sourdough. I was looking forward to that. But I'm not really that hungry. I just have to learn how to stay in a state of rejuvenating calm. And peace.

So much to process...
My body let me know I was overdoing it again. Now it's hard to chew on one side. I think it's jaw tension. I really have to heal the nervous system. I don't understand how at one point of the day I feel like I can be one way, and then in another part of the day, I just can't be like that at all. But it is so.
Is that so? 🤔
"Carrillo also criticized The Press Democrat, which became aware of some sexual assault allegations against Foppoli in 2019, but ultimately did not write about them at the time.
That year, then-Press Democrat reporter Alexandria Bordas spoke with two women who told her they’d been assaulted by Foppoli. When she relayed those accounts to her supervisors, “editors failed to follow through and pursue the story,” wrote then-executive editor Richard Green in a front-page mea culpa to readers on April 9, 2021. He’d arrived at the newspaper two months earlier and been unaware of the Foppoli allegations.
Bordas began working for the San Francisco Chronicle, which after months of investigative work, on April 8, 2021 published a “Special Report” with claims by four women against Foppoli. By the end of the next month, 13 women had come forward.
That bombshell began a chain reaction of events..."

"News analysis: $15 million jury verdict against ex-Windsor Mayor Dominic Foppoli strikes a blow to Sonoma County’s ‘old boy network’"
Bring it back...Bring it back... I got "Battle of Evermore" in my head!
"It was not unusual, during breaks in the trial of ex-Windsor Mayor Dominic Foppoli, for bailiffs and attorneys on the second floor of the Sonoma County civil courthouse to see jurors engaging in Qigong, an ancient Chinese practice blending movement and patterned breathing.
During their two weeks of deliberations at the end of the trial, recalled Juror No. 9, a contemplative woman who described herself as “theologically trained” and preferred not to share her name, she and her peers began each morning with a “grounding practice” of “breathing and listening, or tuning into the body.”
After two months of intent listening and tuning in — of “really paying attention to everything,” she said, “questions, word choices, facial expressions” — the jury found Foppoli liable for sexually assaulting seven women in encounters spanning two decades, awarding them over $15 million in damages.
And now, said the juror, standing in the shade of a tree in the parking lot outside the courthouse on Sept. 16, she was exhausted and wanted to go home.
Juror No. 9 and her peers had earned the rest."

"Men in my age group explain why they're still good friends with that one guy who got accused of something nefarious in our youth 'But it wasn't really his fault and he's a really great guy,' but they can't be friends with me anymore!"
I read something celebrity. Why does menopause have to be about him?
"Naomi Watts Praises Husband Billy Crudup for Menopause..."
"She lauded her husband of three years, fellow actor Billy Crudup, for being curious about menopause — and implored other men to replicate his openness. “I was hiding in the bathroom trying to scratch off my estrogen patch, and he was like, ‘Is everything okay?’ And I told him what was going on, and I really was so nervous and thinking, ‘Oh God, I bet he’s not going to want to be with me now. He knows I’m in menopause.'”
Crudup’s reaction was quite the opposite. “He was like, ‘Hold on a second. We’re the same age, and that’s great that you’re taking care of yourself. Love science, love medicine. And why are you ashamed? That’s fantastic. Thanks for telling me.’ And so instantly, I felt, ‘Oh my God, this is so sweet and generous and sexy!’ Like, that just felt really intimate. And I felt safer than I’d ever felt,” continued Watts. “And I told him that I wanted to create a company for women who are not clued in, and the company would be about hydration from scalp to vag.”
~ Naomi Watts, Lily Ford
See how insecure successful women are supposed to be? I know it's supposed to be relatable, but it's kind of sad.
"From scalp to vag."
Who talks like this? Who objectifies themselves in this way?

Go read an Epstein file.
I'm so tired of irresponsible men and other careless patriarchal people who are so lacking in empathy for others and propped up by dudebro culture acting like the teenage puppies of the world while the older sisters look after the children and clean up their messes.

Steering in another direction now.
I respect that humans do their best to feel well and safe. I had several shocks this evening (intrusive memories, lost item that was found, the car missing hitting a runaway animal, some other worries) and now I feel breathless and like I need to cling to what's familiar, like my bedspread. There's a big moon shining overhead and it's full. But what is this moon illuminating? Suddenly, I'm just being reminded again how much human beings really do need to feel safe and well. And I hope that they do.
But the good thing about now is the algorithm is giving me more of feminism. 😊

Gosh, sometimes I wish I lived in a more enlightened future. I might come back.
I went to the local festival and talked to a guy selling hats because his awning indicated that he used to work for some newspapers. He was in sales. He said it got bad after COVID, and people didn't get their papers delivered when he sold the subscriptions and digital package to them, and the people at the paper didn't seem to care anymore with all the layoffs happening. He said back in the '90s, that would never would have happened. People really got in trouble if papers weren't delivered.
He said that even today, because he still has the awning, several people came up to him and asked how they could get a subscription delivered to their house. We talked about how it was nice to just open a paper and not have lots of links to click on. And he didn't use language like it calms people's nervous system and stuff. But he was basically saying, it's a calmer way to get the news, and he says it brings things down, by which he meant it brings the stress levels down, to read the paper like that, the old fashioned way.
I said, I think people are going to realize that in the future, but they don't seem to realize it yet. And I meant the people who are in charge of things. The people who only seem to think about money and only seem to have short-term goals. And not long-term goals for making things better for humanity.
He was happy to talk to me because he was proud of his time working for the newspapers but he doesn't do it anymore. Now he's on to other things. He has a few businesses apparently. He was selling a lot of hats at the fair.
Scary! But some are still able to do this.

It feels like a nice cool breeze.
It's like the feminism is finally finally finally finally finally coming.
