Gen Z males twice as likely as baby boomers to believe wives should obey husbands Global survey shows young men and boys hold more traditional views about gender roles than older generations

I sense twice as many Gen Z dudes will not be getting anywhere near a woman anytime soon

About a third of a knit baby blanket done in mint and orange yarn, knit in mosaic technique with alternating diamond shapes. It is laying on a wood floor partially covered by a rug

Corinne Bailey Rae: β€˜If you weren’t tits-out-for-the-lads, they called you middle of the road’ Her first album was a huge hit – then she faced the sudden tragedy of her husband’s early death. She describes the rupture of grief, her return to music and the harsh reality of fame as a woman in the 00s

It’s D&D night, and the party has been invited to the Feywild to hunt the Jabberwock, courtesy of @drandrewthaler.bsky.social’s campaign module, The Last Hunt For The Jabberwock. There’s a limit to what I can say, because spoilers, but the party is deeply suspicious.

Do you think your wife should (and should regularly) only have non-procreative sex/ orgasms with you but nobody else? A common view, but why?

I almost forgot the lunar eclipse among the chaos of the news. Tomorrow morning--and for those of us on the East Coast we get a selenelion where the moon sets as the sun rises. This is my quilt "blood moon" from several years ago as a reminder. #bloodmoon #artquilt #selenelion #original #art #quilt

abstract procedural art comprised of thousand of tiny sliver shapes. the palette is black and purple against a white background. the pattern... i don't know, it gives the vibe of something burning up on reentry in the atmosphere tbh

Digital products and services are getting worse – but the trend can be reversed A new report from the Norwegian Consumer Council shows how enshittification affects both consumers and society at large. Luckily, itβ€˜s possible to turn the tide.

What a great report by the Norwegian Consumer Council on how digital products and services are getting worse (enshittification)!

Lots of good explanations and examples, but also very actionable with policy recommendations.

i think the fact that i can say over and over again 'i am not being ironic, this is not a bit, my books are not a joke' and have people on the right AND left just say 'NO YOU ARE' to my face (or my mask) over and over again is very telling. culture just cannot deal with neurodivergent people yet
