today i had the dubious honor of learning that william wordsworth stole entire passages out of the journals his sister, Dorothy Wordsworth, wrote.

"The Grasmere Journal and Wordsworth's other works revealed how vital she was to her brother's success. William relied on her detailed accounts of nature scenes and borrowed freely from her journals. This passage is clearly brought to mind when reading William's 'Daffodils', where her brother, in this poem of two years later, describes what appears to be the shared experience in the journal as his own solitary observation. Her observations and descriptions have been considered to be as poetic if not more so than those of her brother."

A woman in her natural state of body (that is with no make-up, without shaving, etc) is not masculine.

Shout out to lesbians who are standing tall againt the pro-rape, anti-boundaries movement. It's hard being told again and again that it's fascist not to give dick a chance. It's painful being told homosexuality is "just a fetish" or "wrong and exclusionary". But we're going to make it through this. No matter how bad it is right now, it WILL get better some day. And you're going to be there to witness that.

you can literally say anything to men, it doesn’t matter

Some people don't know how bad things have become. This is a rape shelter in Vancouver. First they got sued because they only have women volunteers on their phones.

Some guy really wanted to hear all the rape stories and they said no.

Then the rape shelter was vandalized. Talk about punching down! The ultimate abuse was they had funding stripped from them. Why? Because they dared be a shelter for women. And that’s not allowed any more. Not even for rape victims.

When they say who can any of this hurt? It can hurt those women. It can hurt those women a lot. The women who are traumatized and frightened and battered.

This shelter fought back and now depends on private donations. Other shelters have given in.

Imagine being a rape victim and just asking for one space where it can be all women. Even just one room. And being told you must include men or you can’t get help.

At the heart of it, rape is a crime of forced inclusion. You weren’t allowed to say no. Part of healing is being given back your power and that includes the ability to say no.

If a rape victim wants a healing space that only has redheads born on a Tuesday in it, I’d try to find her such a space. She has been traumatized. She is terrified. We would all do anything to help her be less frightened. At least most of us would.

To be clear, I can’t be sure of the motive of any particular person who demanded to be a volunteer at any particular time, but there are men who love to hear women’s rape stories and some women don’t like telling their stories to men.

And don’t think these are rare situations. There are many shelters across the world that have been facing the same pressures. It’s a huge story. When JK Rowling funded a shelter just for women she was swarmed by the fly lords! (See my pinned thread for that reference).

If you are 29 and have been trying to have kids long enough to have exhausted fertility treatment options you didn’t by any reasonable definition “wait” to try for kids

Musical genius 🔥

The metronome and stopwatch were put there to shut mean people up (some comments on her other videos accused her of speeding up the videos).

This video is from her channel. The same video was uploaded on her music school’s channel first. Comments there say that weapons are going to start flying soon (referring to how musical instruments can be used in combat in wuxia movies) 🤣
