Happy Indigenous people's day!

Story about a US history class. Teacher asks who discovered America and students answer Columbus. Teacher asks "Right. So who did he find when he came here?" Students answer Indians but can't name the tribe. Teacher tells them Taìnos. Then asks "How do we explain that? We all know the name of the man who came here from Europe, but none of us knows the name of the people who were here first ... Why haven't ypu heard of them? This ignorance is an artifact of historical silencing - rendering invisible the lives and stories of entire peoples." From Rethinking Columbus: towards a true people's hstory by Bill Bigelow via bestoffates

Happy National Coming Out Day! You come out on your own terms: in your own time and in your own way. That is the only “right” way to come out. Sending love to those who, for whatever reason, choose not to come out. You are valid, and you are loved.

Men will really pretend to invent a babysitting robot to watch the children they made but don't know, rather than go to therapy.
