The article is paragraph salad. It’s just a banal observation laundry list of feminist issues vaguely related to urbanism. I’m genuinely shocked to learn the author actually teaches urban geography at a well respected university, because she writes about it like a first year student trying to hit all the buzzwords.
I mean, it’s 2020 and she’s presenting overly simplistic views like it’s brand new information. I can assure you that the topic of gender inequality in the built environment has received quite a lot of study over the past 60+ years. “Tall buildings are kinda shaped like penises!” Really? That’s what you open with?
Some years back there was a major flesh-eating bacteria scare and iirc it was 100% a media event. For some reason the background of some 100s of people who get a bad case of it and some die got on the news even though there was no change and roughly the same number of people had always gotten it.
The silent majority means something specific in America. Nixon credited his win to the silent majority, meaning people who weren’t vocally speaking out for civil rights, but were instead sitting at home silently hating black people.
Why dont you just dump the coins into a Coinstar machine? They count it for you. And there is no fee as long as you select gift card(~30 vendors) rather than cash out option.
Didn’t know about the gift card thing… I thought the fee was 8% and that’s what I offered my daughter to sort them using an electric coin sorter (still a pain because you have to put them in a slot rather than dump them). Would’ve probably been $50 for her. She looked at me like I had insulted her.
AT&T doesn’t offer high speed internet here. IDK why because Nashville is 20 min away. The only high speed provider I can find is Xfinity. But they require a 2 year plan. I’m only planning to stay here a few months so I don’t want to get anything that’s a commitment.
Any ideas of what I can do? I need to be able to use Zoom. I have Sprint as my cell phone provider. I was thinking of getting unlimited plan for $80 but I don’t know if it’s fast enough. It says it’s 4G in my area.
The only time I turn on my TV is to watch Liverpool.
Today, on my phone, for what I think is the first time ever, a little TV icon popped up with a notification to let me know that Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is on Bravo tonight.
I’m full of all sorts of feelings right now.
First, and least interesting, I’m angry that this is a thing that can happen.
Second, I’m hurt, and taking account of everything in my life that has led to this moment. What have I done, what have I been watching, that would result in me receiving what I assume is a targeted ad(?) of some kind. Why does my phone or Google or somebody think this information is important to me.
Third, I’m confused. Since this is so infrequent, do I need to watch this show? Is God trying to let me know that watching this could avoid a series of consequences that would result in personal or worldwide disaster? I’m torn on whether to watch this or not.
