There are plenty of women who live like this now. It’s a cultural thing, not a timeline thing. I had a roommate in college who would wake up before dawn to do her makeup so nobody would see her without it.
(Also high society women certainly didn’t make their own breakfasts… well, ever, but especially not hundreds of years ago)
From the video it looks like the plastic rings are casings and the wheels are inside them, and the wheels poke out at the bottom. Seems dumb to me.
You can kind of see it here but it looks like they’re intentionally hiding a good view of it with angles/lighting:
Too bad he took a 19-year-old with him :/
I’m not sure; usually this language is used when someone is convicted, that the sentence they receive from the judge has to fall in that range. I don’t know what “sentenced to 15 years to life” means except that the judge intends that she spend at least 15 years in prison.
I’ve had good results managing it by planning my week very loosely: I write down 1-3 things I plan to do each day (including work, exercise, cleaning, leisure, seeing friends, appointments) and it’s just enough structure to keep me moving without being stifling.
There were some good tips in this podcast episode: https://www.npr.org/2023/07/28/1190725808/tackle-your-medical-debt-with-life-kit
My favorite thing about this meme is that whenever it gets posted we get to hear these stories. I’m glad it got better for you!
My company built a big lab with expensive equipment and then laid off the person who was an expert in using all of it.
And Onion articles, and other satire.
Reminded me of Annihilation (the books go weird places)
Yeah, before this rule clarification, there was a magic force field protecting all women’s bathrooms from rapists. It was literally impossible for women to get raped before we decided to protect the basic human rights and dignity of trans people. I’ve certainly never been sexually assaulted or harassed by cis men, but now I’ll have to live in fear, because of woke.
It’s not actually a new law, it’s a clarification of a law that already exists. The supreme court ruled in 2020 that it’s illegal to harass employees on the basis of sexuality or gender identity. The EEOC just issued a clarification that misgendering and bathroom bans count as harassment.

You should think about reading the Declaration of Independence sometime:
The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
We’re using them. The problem is they aren’t replacing fossil fuels. Instead of a polluting coal plant, you have a polluting coal plant and a bunch of solar panels and wind turbines that were manufactured, transported, built from mined substances. It’s better than building another coal plant, but it’s not solving climate change. Power demand grows to use the available supply.
The fix is a screw to actually affix the pedal cover to the pedal (instead of just glue). So, yeah, cheap, but probably fixes the problem. (Not the next fatal problem they find though…)
You didn’t read the article. These are images that appeared in the documentary and were not marked as generated. It was implied they were real photos.
Patriarchy oppresses us all.
