Meme-ing our way through


Context: Dr Jeanette Young is the Chief Health Officer of Queensland and has been since the start of the pandemic. She is super well liked and good at the role.

I am really amused at how hard australian comedians lean into the word cunt.

I mean… On the one hand, it’s a gentle** term of endearment here, on the other, we know it’s a 'bad" swear word and think it’s funny to use it, and on the foot, I haven’t said it in front of my child.

**This word has tone I can’t convey in text.

I think we're over the pie chart, but...

It made it to reddit front page and people tracked down more details: https://www.reddit.com/r/WhitePeopleTwitter/comments/p7lhsc/i_dont_think_ive_ever_been_this_triggered_from/

4 person house share in Cambridge (explains rent, internet, housekeeping pretty well I think), on their family’s cell plan.

I find it interesting how much people Don’t Get It. Like I think people here raised good points about what wasn’t included in this budget, and the relative ratios like food to rent. But I don’t think we argued that living with roommates at 25 was/would be a bad financial choice, or indicative of not being bad with money, or “why do they have roommates if they are making six figs?”

I disagree. That’s probably because I have lived a very similar budget, and it made sense not to have certain categories.

I have feelings about how SW are constantly pushed out of places in the name of helping combat exploitation that simply forces them into areas where there is more risk of exploitation, but since others have written that better, here is a User Story.

I mean, a young woman of my acquaintance made a surprising amount of money on feet pics (she says the emotional labor of communicating with her fans was the hard part). But she did have to broaden her business model to hit six figures, although I think they were still more R than X rated.

I do appreciate how well the dictionaries have been doing with their social media the past few years.

Fun story: my aunt just had her HS reunion in the podunk town I’m technically from, and she was the only one wearing a mask. There were also a LOT of anti vaxxers. She’s a Trump supporting cattle rancher and SHE was put off by them. That says something.

Needless to say, I won’t be attending the event the town has at the end of each summer this year…
