Links for your Thursday
I'm writing and writing right now, so light posting ahead.
Have some links!
I'm considering a new page for my bibliography -- what do all y'all think about this one?
In case you missed this: A Poem for academics
And in case you missed this, an amazing short story from Naomi Kritzer
Where your taxes go
I'd love this even if I didn't love bagels
Science says this
From Daniel Ortberg, who is a national treasure
A follow up to the previous, due to all the online harassment Ortberg got for his essay
Women in science
The quintiles, in case anyone is confused about the state of American wealth and poverty
What the above translates into
On the other hand...
This one is just funny

Thank you for that followup to the first Daniel Ortberg post. #2 and I have a rant in drafts about some academic so-called feminist who, as Ortberg says, "purports to worry a great deal about adolescent girls" but is really just showing off her transphobia. That's a piss-poor feminism, and it really makes me angry. I may not understand gender identity very well myself, but I believe people when they talk about their own, and I really don't think that forcing (or even nudging) non-trans adolescents to change gender is actually a real thing, as opposed to say, a straw bogeyman. URGH. Anyway, there will be a rant on grumpy rumblings in the future. Maybe next week depending on what else we have in drafts!
People talking adolescents into being trans is SO much not a thing. If anything, the opposite.
Also, I detest people who claim being trans is a 'fad.' Also not a thing.
P.S. I look forward to your rant!
