I mean I've seen some feminist reviews of anime before
I think being a straight white Male just makes me undesirable in a place like Toronto.
Truly the most oppressed demographic 
Wow this is just like the encyclopedia check after Klaasje tells you that alcohol increases testosterone 
Klaasje (Miss Oranje Disco Dancer) - "Alcohol raises testosterone levels, especially in men," she says matter-of-factly. "The levels remain elevated after inebriation ends and the pain begins. You seek comfort. It's only natural."
Encyclopedia - Isn't it the other way around? Heavy drinking decreases testosterone... and believe me, you would know.
Truly there is a DE quote for everything...
Oh fuck that's awful
A writer for Anime Feminist is doing apologia for Neil Gaiman, calling his detractors femcels, and complaining about bæddels. 
Normal/Fairy cause I'm gay and trans but like in a boring way.
But you also, allegedly, have Wisconscom
Somewhat relevant article: https://www.themonthly.com.au/issue/2024/june/kate-manne/future-misogyny#mtr
Misogyny, as I define it, is hostility and hatred faced by girls and women that serves to police and enforce patriarchal norms and expectations.
The newspapers of course also engage in this policing.
It is this same patriarchal ideology that results in men, typically privileged men, murdering their children as well as their wives when he suffers a loss of income or reputation or family unity. These crimes, known as “family annihilations”, happen more than once a week on average in the United States, and are also not uncommon in Australia.
they are unified by the sense that they deserve the social and sexual services of girls and women, and are entitled to lash out or take their “due” when they feel deprived – because she’s leaving, or his family is crumbling, or her presumed sexual consent is not in fact forthcoming.
a phenomenon I call “himpathy”: where men who commit acts of misogynistic violence receive disproportionate and undue sympathy and concern as compared with their female victims.
Thankfully not being done with this story. It is, however, being used as apologia for the rapist the Dutch are sending to the Olympics...
Lenin Cat advice animal placed where Yuri Knorozov's cat, Asya, should be. In the mid 1900s, J. Eric S. Thompson was highly influential in Mayan studies. Yuri Knorozov figured out that Mayan hieroglyphics had a syllabic component and thus could actually be read, but Thompson and therefore almost the entire field of Mayan studies rejected his discovery for twenty years until the Brit finally croaked.

Step aside "white genocide" - by 2531, everyone in Japan will be named Sato
(www.spoon-tamago.com)
No one is talking about surname genocide.
96% of MPs voted for it! 
It will very likely be approved by the Senate and then needs to be approved by the king (lmao).

Boston's MBTA Plans Frequent-Running, Battery-Electric Trains on the Fairmount Line
(mass.streetsblog.org)
Is Boston ever going to make a good transit decision this century???
Silver lining (not the silver line - that sucks) is that the proposal is to go from a terrible schedule of 45 minute weekday headway and 90 minute weekend headway to a 20 minute weekday headway and 30 minute weekend headway schedule. I'm using headway correctly, right? And the current trains are diesel. They're just American so they're scared of spending money on wires.
In fact, in spite of their electrification goals, the T has been ripping out miles of catenary wire that once powered fully-electric bus routes in Cambridge and Watertown.

Pictured is a graph of historical global sea-surface temperatures across the year from 1982-2024. Yesterday was about 0.3°C warmer than last year. Well, maybe it will go back down since this is an El Niño year? :>
Average global surface air temperature in February 2024 was 1.77°C warmer than the average February from 1850-1900. So maybe we can retire those 1.5°C warming goals now?
However, the IPCC reports that global temperatures have only risen by 1.1°C. This is because they use decade-long averages. Indeed, it is completely possible that 2025 will be cooler than 2024, but crop failures don't care much for averages. 
And if global warming has accelerated, the IPCC's method will be a decade late to realizing it. Not that they can actually do anything about it...
Currently I have some qualms with degrowth (and solarpunk) as well as its ideological opposite, ecomodernism. However, as a wise man once said: "No investigation, no right to speak." Thus I wish to better inform myself before I start ranting online.
My understanding is that none of these topics really have a widely agreed upon framework besides the absolute basics, so I'll likely find myself reading ten different opinions on what degrowth means according to ten different degrowthers. Is this correct?
I just read "Socio-economic conditions for satisfying human needs at low energy use" from 2020 and will be reading "In defence of degrowth" from 2010 next. After that, I'll go through Monthly Review's "planned degrowth" July-August 2023 issue. Then I'll look at whatever you comrades recommend. When I'm done with degrowth, I will move on to ecomodernism and maybe solarpunk. Yes I am aware that solarpunk is more of an artistic movement than an actual theoretical tendency.
I would prefer recommendations that I can get finish in under two hours. Videos, podcasts, movies, documentaries, etc. are also fine if you think they're worthwhile. If you truly think a long book is worth the read, I will defer to your judgment.
Thanks. 
Frost Fatales began this past Sunday and will end Saturday night. It is a part of Frame Fatales, a twice-a-year video game speedrunning charity event featuring only women and femmes. Games are played between around 1:00 PM and midnight EST, so there are no late night games like in the main GDQ events. There's also no live audience, and the runners instead stream from their homes.

There was an opt-in survey in from YouGov & The Economist that seemed to show a fifth of young Americans denied the Holocaust. The Economist ran a piece on it.
Well, Pew Research did a random sampling and found completely different and far less worrying results.
Please don't do this. It'll cause the finasteride to affect only feminine hairs. Happened to a friend of mine once. She still has to cut her eyelashes to this day.
