Tea Party?
This article written by Tim Wise is From Oyasophia’s blog. Very Powerful stuff!
It kind of made me angry while reading it. I have not been following the Tea Party movement too much, but I had a feeling that they were up to no good.
I get so lost and frustrated sometimes. I value different opinions and point of view, but when it comes to some issue I just want to scream “WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE.”
Not everyone is going to think like me - I understand that. But there is a fine line between freedom of speech, and complete oppression, hatred, racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. A very fine line - and it is being crossed every single day.
Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.

Ridgeline subscribers — I never met Annie Dillard (archive), and I don’t feel as if I know her. She seems unknowable. Part of her attraction: an improbable cipher looking at the world and delighting in minutiae. So, no, we never walked together (and now ne...

“Artificial” things can get a bad rap next to their counterparts, but they have their place. For example, artificial light (i.e. not from the sun)? Super useful, especially at night. And when it comes to skiing, I’ll take artificial snow if I have to. Beat...
