Have an idea

If you have an inclination, send some kindness along on an internal energy level, even if you are afraid / feel the other person might have done you wrong at some point, and massive forces are messing everything up on the external level...

Wow, genius?!

Strange little dreams

One was about a woman set to appear in court and no one knew it but a male security guard was a good friend of hers, looking on as moral support.

Another was about a young man who ran around and around his living room at night because of extreme nervousness.

Dream?

Me and a woman I barely knew started talking about soul stuff and it ended with us crying.

It had to do with creative women in the arts being disrespected by a cruel uncooperative patriarchal system and the vulnerability of pregnant women.

Water and what I would like

I would like to be able to live in an apartment where the water doesn't randomly get turned off from time to time without anyone telling us.

Three people with college degrees live here. Not that lack of college degree should matter. But we were taught that those degrees would help us have a better life. We just don't have the right kinds of college degrees.

We should have gotten the "high wage" types of college degrees. But guess what? Wages and rent weren't so bad back then!

I like having functional plumbing. I understand that sometimes they might need to turn the water off, but why not give some notice? I need water. WATER.

IF NOTICE IS GIVEN THEN I CAN MAKE SURE THE PITCHER IS FILLED AND THE CAT HAS FRESH WATER AND THE DISHES ARE WASHED

"In a major reversal, Ivanka Trump comes out in favor of working for what you get."

"Despite the president's over-the-top hyping for the economy, real wages have remained flat, thanks to factors like persistent inflation, a regressive tax policy, the erosion of the manufacturing sector, and—above all—the unyielding corporate law principle of shareholder supremacy.

 This dynamic is the reason why Ocasio-Cortez-esque politics are on the rise within the Democratic Party, and why millions of Americans are re-examining their reflexive, Soviet-era animosity towards things labeled "socialist." It's also why so many jobs guarantee proposals now sit firmly in the political mainstream: In a country in which 4 in 5 people live paycheck-to-paycheck, unfettered capitalism is very obviously not addressing the basic needs Trump identifies here. While straining to repudiate the merits of a federal employment safety net, she manages to offer a spirited argument for enacting one as soon as possible.

This is not the first time Ivanka Trump has visibly struggled to resolve the cognitive dissonance created by her burning desire for her liberal New York City friends to like her on the one hand, and her craven loyalty to this administration on the other. As is often the case these days, the most compelling arguments for taxing the rich come straight from the rich who would be taxed."

"The union has told reporters that 95 percent of teachers have joined the picket lines and that just three percent of students were in class on Friday. While this strike has already gone past the one-day mark of the Oakland teachers’ 2010 strike, it still has another three weeks to go before it catches the 26-day strike of 1996. Here’s hoping that teachers get a fair contract before then, and that no more similarly poorly compensated reporters have to take a bullet to tell Oakland residents about it."

Hello!

Man...Sometimes you just have to wake up.

"Betty – a white woman who left school after ninth grade, had her first child at age 16 and spent much of her life in severe poverty – wanted to vote.

So she waited with busted knees that once stood on factory lines. She waited with smoking-induced emphysema and the false teeth she’s had since her late 20s – both markers of our class. She waited with a womb that in the 1960s, before Roe v Wade, she paid a stranger to thrust a wire hanger inside after she discovered she was pregnant by a man she’d fled after he broke her jaw.

Betty worked for many years as a probation officer for the state judicial system in Wichita, Kansas, keeping tabs on men who had murdered and raped. As a result, it’s hard to faze her, but she has pronounced Republican candidate Donald Trump a sociopath 'whose mouth overloads his ass.'

No one loathes Trump – who suggested women should be punished for having abortions, who said hateful things about groups of people she has loved and worked alongside since childhood, whose pomp and indecency offends her modest, midwestern sensibility – more than she."

Big, big paragraph

"You might think that, above a certain income level, there would be diminishing returns for competitive parenting. Once you have an excellent school (probably in an expensive neighborhood), SAT tutors, music lessons and select sports leagues, aren’t the boxes of intensive parenting checked off? But American inequality has been particularly pronounced at the top, with larger and larger shares of income going to the top 1 or even 0.1 percent of earners, so even parents near the peak of the income scale feel inequality’s pressures. The desire to push children one rung higher is relentless. Indeed, since the 1980s, couples with more money and more education have increased the time and money spent on their children at a much faster rate than others."

She had never had it, she said. In my head it was like, hello...we are customers! We are right here and can hear everything! I made a joke about joining Yelp and the two guys I was sitting with looked up from their phones and said, Huh? They hadn't noticed. Too engrossed in baseball scores. So. Whatever.

Well, they do still seem nice

And as though they have good intentions...

"Then, of course, there’s student loan debt. According to the Federal Reserve, Millennials in their twenties carried an average debt of $22,135 last summer. This is one of the most integral metrics of the Millennial experience because of its implications for how much money a young person can save. Arecent study by ApartmentList claims that the rarefied minority of debt-free Millennials are putting away twice as much money as their counterparts who are still paying off balances."

~ M. Howard
https://theoutline.com/post/3840/frugalwoods-frugality-millennials?zd=1&zi=xhvtg6na

Not everyone has student loan debt!

Not everyone is a public school teacher in Oakland!

"Regardless of intent, these Millennials are telling an older generation of elite Americans — the very people whose policies and financial decisions kneecapped the economy — what they want to hear: that everything is more or less okay, and young people just need to be more thoughtful about their money. And that’s a shitty idea to perpetuate. Because whatever happens in the years ahead, penny-pinching will likely remain a lifestyle enhancement for bourgeois Millennials who possess enough money to enjoy the dividends of being thrifty. For most of us, there are no dividends: just thrift."

~ M. Howard
https://theoutline.com/post/3840/frugalwoods-frugality-millennials?zd=1&zi=xhvtg6na

Maybe it's not only about numbers

"The Mark of a Woman’s Record: Gender and Academic Performance in Hiring"
~ Natasha Quadlin:

"Although GPA matters little for men, women benefit from moderate achievement but not high achievement. As a result, high-achieving men are called back significantly more often than high-achieving women—at a rate of nearly 2-to-1. I further find that high-achieving women are most readily penalized when they major in math: high-achieving men math majors are called back three times as often as their women counterparts"

Some people have that extra talent

They remind you that needless cruelty is very inefficient.

They also remind you that it would be much wiser to get therapy and rehabilitation for a sad childhood instead of reenacting those terrible, controlling, abusive behavior patterns and mistreating other people.

By the way.

These people were all "concerned mothers."

There is no way that I believe in the inherent good intentions of an insecure woman who actually took extra time to come to a library to spy on me and other people just because one of her offspring through no fault of my own sat by me on a form of public transport.

Based on their choices and behavior patterns, I have no reason to believe certain people are actually concerned about children's well-being beyond their own narcissistic, self-promoting activities. Especially children who would have been very badly treated during their own racist, misogynist, apartheid upbringing.

Did you ever hear about women who didn't need any more abusive men in their lives...

Even the ones who were really "successful" during the *gag* "Trump" era...

What if successful, abusive men who continuously had lots of people always making special exceptions for their abusive behavior patterns that they would never make for other people with far less money somehow, miraculously found a way to stop being abusive...

Open face w/ a twist!
