Recently, my wife and I decided to move from Portland, OR to Minneapolis, MN.

Part of that move will involve me driving our car with the dogs alone with random way points for me during the trip.

I found out from mapping the drive, that one of the routes takes me within spitting distance of Fort Yates, ND (where I lived).

I was considering stopping there to look around, see the house I grew up in, grab a couple snacks and then drive up to Bismarck and then over to Minneapolis .

I would like some advice. It's is a little weird (because it's not a common situation at all), but bear with me.

Background: My father worked for the Indian Health Services when I was a little kid, I am not Native American/First Nations in any way. But we lived on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation until I was 7.

That experience influenced a lot of my worldview and how I view marginalized peoples and is still something I consider to be an important time in my life.

stop centering your feelings when marginalized groups are expressing their pain and the issues they’re facing !!!!!!

Why am I having anxiety about joining an ultra-inclusive (read: form-fillable gender, application questions about the lines you draw when it comes to content, options to request groups with LGBT, women, or PoCs only to feel fully at ease) Tabletop RPG Discord? Just fill out the application... gah!

I want a series of Fred Rogers for President campaign ads. The Cabinet is sitting in the President's briefing room, outlining today's crises and concluding with a plea: "Mr. President, what do we do?" Everyone turns to the head of the table where an old TV and VCR turn on, and as the CRT warms up the VCR fast-forwards to a clip from "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood" that covers exactly this situation. In one corner a general starts quietly weeping tears of joy, realizing that sharing is an option…

saying that sexism against men doesn’t exist does not mean that the social
rules men developed don’t come back to bite them in the ass

it means that sexism against men doesn’t exist. there is no social / political / economic structure oppressing them for being men.

stop being dense.
