When your grid goes from green to black(out) because the weather decided white is better.


Serious question: Would AOC disapprove if that's not an electric helicopter?

UK hospital replaces term 'breast milk' with 'human milk' to be more inclusive

BY LEXI LONAS - 02/10/21 05:36 PM ESTA hospital in the United Kingdom announced on Wednesday that it will begin using language that is more inclusive of transgender and nonbinary people in its facilities.

“Our approach has been carefully considered to be inclusive of trans & non-binary birthing people without excluding the language of women or motherhood,” Brighton and Sussex Maternity said on Twitter.




The tweet included a 19-page document that has a table of gender-inclusive language that staff can use.

In the table, “breast milk” changes to “human milk,” “breastfeeding” changes to “chestfeeding” and “maternal” changes to “perinatal.”

Other words, including mother, woman and maternal consent, have been changed to be more inclusive of transgender and nonbinary people.

In a statement, Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals said they are focused on being more inclusive with midwives who are providing care for transgender people giving birth.

“I am looking forward to a time when this standard of inclusive care is in fact business as usual for the whole of the NHS [National Health Service]. That being said, improvement has to start somewhere, and I am particularly proud of all the hard work our service has put into this award-winning work,” said Amanda Clifton, head of midwifery.

Believing in science is racist, transphobic, and patriarchal.

Empiricism implies that factual truth is more valid than feelings or opinions.

And that's also racist.

CA School board members accidentally set their meeting to "public" and proceed to talk **** about parents, and new rules about limiting public comments




When the board isn’t aware that they are broadcasting to the public. Previously to this recording they began talking bad about parents of kindergartners, which prompted me to begin recording. This behavior is disgusting. As parents we should not tolerate for our representatives to behave in this manner. Oakley needs a new school board that will stand up for parents and their children.

So, this is interesting. First time I can personally think of where an actual native American was outraged by someone else "culturally appropriating" their name, as opposed to a white person being offended-by-proxy by it.

It’s time for Jeep to stop using Cherokee name, says tribe’s chief


https://wgntv.com/news/its-time-for-...-tribes-chief/


I wonder if the Cherokee tribe can prove that they didn't steal the name from Chrysler.
