Puritan Women's Head Covering
> Why did puritan women cover their heads?
Puritan women covered their heads as a sign of modesty, humility, and submission to the authority of their husbands or male religious leaders. The practice was based on interpretations of biblical texts such as 1 Corinthians 11:3-10, which stated that a woman's head covering symbolized the authority of her husband over her. The Puritans believed that by covering their heads, women were demonstrating their devotion to God and their commitment to living a pious and virtuous life.
> how is this any different from the hijab?
The Puritan head covering and the hijab, while both having roots in religious beliefs and practices, are distinct in several ways.
Firstly, the motivations behind wearing the head covering are different. The Puritan head covering was worn as a sign of submission to a woman's husband or religious leaders, whereas the hijab is worn by Muslim women as a symbol of modesty, religious piety, and as a sign of respect for the Islamic dress code.
Secondly, the degree to which the head is covered is different. The Puritan head covering was typically a cap or hood that covered the hair, while the hijab covers the hair, neck, and sometimes the entire face, except for the eyes.
Lastly, the cultural and historical contexts of the two practices are distinct. The Puritan head covering was a specific practice of a particular Christian sect in 17th-century England, while the hijab is a widely observed custom in many Muslim-majority societies and has a much longer history, dating back to the time of the Prophet Muhammad.
In conclusion, while both the Puritan head covering and the hijab have roots in religious beliefs and practices, they are distinct in terms of their motivations, degree of head coverage, and cultural and historical contexts.
> so actually you’re offering evidence that they are remarkably similar
Yes, you could argue that there are similarities between the Puritan head covering and the hijab. Both were used as symbols of modesty, religious piety, and as signs of submission to religious authority. However, it's also important to note that there are differences, such as the motivations behind wearing them, the extent to which they cover the head, and the cultural and historical contexts in which they originated.
> perhaps the living are better served by finding our commonalities rather that focusing on differences, especially when they are really so small
I agree, focusing on commonalities and shared experiences can bring people together and promote understanding and empathy. Emphasizing similarities rather than differences can help to break down barriers and foster a sense of unity and belonging. Recognizing our shared humanity can help us to see beyond cultural, religious, and other differences and see each other as individuals with similar hopes, fears, and aspirations.
> good talk

I'm a cryptid in Stardew valley. I live on the outskirts of town. I disappear for days on end, purchasing daily one-way tickets to the calico desert. Nobody knows where I go while I'm there. Can occasionally be found fishing at random spots throughout town. I am never not running on at least one triple shot espresso. I take the abandoned minecarts to get around and am frequently seen disappearing into the sewers. I carry a sword for some reason. Once every week or two I will stride into your bedroom to deliver you your favorite meal. I'm a self-made millionaire. I attend all the town events and will go to your concert in the next town over. I have donated approximately 2583 items to the local museum and singlehandedly revitalized the town community center. There are rumors I can talk to junimos. I'm friends with the local wizard

Where do I even begin? I'm appalled. The Canadian government living up to its roots in colonial-settler violence... this is beyond criminal. Contact your MP's. This erasure and anti-Palestinian racism is unacceptable.
For anyone reading this on or after February 26th, 2024 -here is more information/updates:

continually awed by how american states function like separate countries
I held back on getting my gender changed in the state of Georgia because it required filing a court case and appearing before a judge to prove that I had transitioned enough to warrant calling myself male on my documents. there was a strong possibility they could deny me because I hadn't undergone any type of surgery (a requirement under Georgia law that is waived only sometimes), despite passing as male 100% of the time.
this morning I went to the Maryland vehicle administration building and they had a touch screen with buttons that said "male" and "female."
I paused and asked the lady "I can choose male, right?" and she looked at me (again, I'm just some guy with a beard) (and I think she misheard me) and she was like "Oh! Do you want to be female now?" I said no, my Georgia license (directly in front of her) says female, they wouldn't let me change it, can I be male now?
she said to just pick whichever I wanted. I got my updated license in 5 minutes.

We only name the heartbeats  shared
Alike heartbeats are.called out in the evenings radiance:a slouch of bears awakening from a long slumber into the rising spring- the receding snow bringing the feast of a winter’s kill, memories of honeyed searches.a host of house sparrows creating nests in the corner eavesof every Elm Street roof, far away from the doors of the superstitions that would kill them if they flew inside.

The skies above Europe are about to get a little greener (and quieter) as German airline Condor takes delivery of its first Airbus A320neo aircraft. This marks a significant milestone in Condor's ongoing fleet modernization program, aimed at enhancing efficiency, comfort, and environmental sustainability. A Modern Twist on a Trusted Platform: The A320neo Joins the Condor Fleet Following a celebratory event in Toulouse, France, Condor officially welcomed its first A320neo into its growing family. Leased from Avolon, this new aircraft represents the first step in a comprehensive fleet renewal strategy that prioritizes modern, fuel-efficient technologies. Condor Soars into the Future Building on a Longstanding Partnership Condor's relationship with the Airbus A320 family stretches back more than two decades. For years, these workhorse aircraft have served Condor faithfully on its extensive European network. The introduction of the A320neo signifies a natural evolution of this partnership, allowing Condor to leverage its existing operational expertise while reaping the benefits of the latest technological advancements. Efficiency Meets Comfort: The A320neo Advantage The A320neo offers a compelling combination of efficiency and passenger comfort. Powered by cutting-edge Pratt & Whitney engines, the aircraft boasts a 20% reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions compared to its predecessor. This translates to a more environmentally friendly operation, aligning with Condor's commitment to sustainable aviation practices. In addition to its environmental benefits, the A320neo prioritizes passenger experience. Featuring Airbus' innovative Airspace cabin design, the aircraft offers a modern and comfortable ambiance. Passengers can expect spacious overhead bins, mood lighting, and larger windows, all contributing to a more enjoyable travel experience. A Strategic Fleet Renewal for a Brighter Future Condor's decision to incorporate the A320neo reflects a strategic vision for sustainable and efficient growth. By operating both the A320neo family for short and medium-haul routes and the A330neo for long-haul destinations, Condor benefits from significant operational advantages. These aircraft share a high degree of "commonality," meaning pilots can be more easily qualified to operate both types. This streamlined approach simplifies training logistics and increases overall operational flexibility. A Global Success Story: The A320neo Takes Flight The A320neo isn't just a boon for Condor; it's a global phenomenon. As of March 2024, the A320neo family has garnered over 10,000 orders from more than 130 customers worldwide. This remarkable level of demand underscores the aircraft's reputation for efficiency, performance, and passenger comfort. With over 3,000 A320neo family aircraft already delivered since its 2016 debut, the platform has cemented its position as a leader in the single-aisle jet market.

It's times like these, when Grian refers to snails as molluscs and gastropods, that I remember he has a degree in marine biology. In retrospect this makes the fishing arc funnier I think.
