Beth Bourne's been at this shit for a while now.

Beth believes Lily has been radicalized by gender ideologues. But Lily, too, has some thoughts about radicalization.

“One of the greatest motivators for humans is fear,” Lily said. “And (Beth) was really afraid, because she felt like she was losing her child. And when somebody tells you: ‘It’s not your fault. Somebody else is taking your child; it’s not your fault that you’re losing them,’ that can be really appealing, and it can feel validating.

“And so I think it’s easier to feel like somebody else has hurt you than to realize that you have made a mistake.”

cis women aren’t obligated to erase our own experiences or boundaries to show that respect.

We can acknowledge the discrimination trans women face while also recognising that cis women have sex-specific experiences and needs, including around menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth and other spaces.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Not my fault you're regurgitating the same whiny bullshit people have been spewing for 30 years. reason.com/1999/10/01/p...

Some don't like the Walkman. In The Closing of the American Mind, cultural critic Allan Bloom wrote that the Walkman-tugging teen reduces centuries of Western cultural progress into "a nonstop…masturbational fantasy" celebrating libertinism. The neo-Luddite writer John Zerzan, for whom art itself prevents people from truly experiencing nature, says the Walkman is part of an "ensemble of technologies" that cause a "protective sort of withdrawal from social connections." And any card-carrying member of the hand-wringing morals brigade would lump those magic earphones in with video games and TV violence as abettors of aberrant and abhorrent teen behavior.

Then there's Thomas Lipscomb, chairman of the Center for the Digital Future. He thinks the Walkman is the electronic equivalent of soma, the happiness drug in Brave New World. "It closes you in an airtight bubble of sound," he complains. "It's a sensory depressant." What's more, he says, it prolongs adolescence, stifles social contact, and keeps people from expanding their intellectual horizons.

Der lästige Kavalier (The Annoying Gentleman), 1874, by Berthold Woltze.
A woman dressed all in black, with a rumpled handkerchief in her lap a tear rolling down one cheek, sits in a train seat. A leering man leans over the back of the train seat, trying to talk at the woman. He has a cigarette held carelessly in one hand, in a position such that he will end up ashing all over the woman's suitcase.

Everything about this is obscene.

What happens when the Islamic ban on interest meets modern capitalism’s reliance on debt finance? The answer is the $5 trillion Islamic finance market, built on various clever ways of effectively charging interest while remaining within the letter of Sharia law. To a secular observer, the structure of a sukuk, an Islamic bond, can be a delightful and, yes, beautiful way of solving this otherwise intractable problem.

Not everyone sees it like that. Mona Siddiqi, a professor of religion and society at Kings College London, disparages sukuk as “religious gymnastics” that Muslims use to extract interest from their coreligionists while making it seem as though they’re being more godly than secular lenders. On a moral level, finding loopholes can be a bad thing to do, even when the structures used to create those loopholes are very clever and aesthetically impressive. That combination, of being morally ugly and also artistically compelling, is familiar to most art lovers — just think of a Francis Bacon painting.

Trump was also very early to the now-ubiquitous strategy of using debt to acquire highly conspicuous trappings of wealth as a way of trying to signal the possession of wealth itself. In the public imagination, someone struggling under a massive debt load is living hand to mouth and in borderline poverty; the reality, contrariwise, is that they’re often buying first-class tickets to Dubai on their credit card and renting a Lamborghini for three hours so they can perform richesse on Instagram. While living under a large student loan burden can seriously reduce your capacity to spend and consume, other forms of debt can vastly increase it.

In 2023, biologists discovered magpie nests made from anti-bird spikes. A nest found in Antwerp, Belgium, now in the collection of Naturalis Biodiversity Center, contains 1500 of these sharp metal spikes, made to deter birds. As they are placed in the dome of the nest to prevent predation of their chicks, they seem to be used in the same way they were intended to be used, to deter other birds.

🚨NEW: Drop Site journalist Ryan Grim has authenticated behind-the-scenes messages showing Politico omitted an important detail from its reporting on how the night began that led to the rape allegations against Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner.

Before publication, a Politico reporter told the Platner campaign that Jenny Racicot, on the night in question, had been “texting [Platner] about needing her glute massaged.” The reporter added, “That detail didn’t make our story.”

When the British civil case goes to trial, one of the witnesses will be Lauren Southern, the former far-right activist, who has since disavowed many of her past views. She told me that she’d decided to get involved after watching Tate’s other victims fight for justice. “The idea that I had evidence, I had medical records that could be added to these cases, and I was doing nothing—that was really eating me up inside,” she said. Last year, she self-published a memoir that detailed her experience with Tate. She broke into tears as she told me that speaking out was “the only way to actually heal anything.”

Buddy,

She said he kept an AR-15 lying around his apartment on Capitol Hill, and would sharpen an ax - a relic from his time working on the Appalachian Trail before he enlisted in the Marines — while watching television.
He had what she described as a "warrior ethos" and would fantasize about killing people he deemed a threat, she said. She said he told her that rape was about power.
It was something that stuck with her through the years, Ms. Fifield said.
"He said this a lot: If anybody ever broke in here, I would rape them," she recalled, saying that he added that it would not be in "a sexual way, not in a gay way."
"He was like, I would rape them to show them that I'm dominant," she said.
