  • Me Tor. Tor learn make woven grass from Tor-mum. Tor been make woven grass for long time. Tor forget when Tor small and not know how make woven grass. Tor only know that Tor make woven grass. It seem easy for Tor.

    Tor had Tor-child. Tor-child not know how do thing that Tor do easy. Tor forget that Tor-child need be taught. Tor forget learn not come easy, that many mistake happen. Tor tell friends that Tor-child dumb as rock. Tor-child learn so slow. Tor-child must be lazy.

    Tor-mum thought same thing. But all learn slow. All not know how until someone show how. Happenings make thoughts, become learning, become knowing - become rock where more learning and knowing be built. More rock, more knowing, easy learning. No rock, small knowing, hard learning. Tor should not think Tor better than Tor-child when Tor same age.


  • Not sure what your context and life story is. From my perspective it seemed like an aggressive and vitriolic choice where “stupid” would have sufficed. As an insult it seems to have a lot more cultural weight behind it which is why I called it a slur. Words are all just sounds, it’s the societal landscape which decides what they actually mean. My friends were telling me they’ve been hearing that word used a lot more frequently as an insult than they remembered from a couple of years ago, so I was particularly primed to make a comment on it.

    I am not in favour of censorship of people’s words at the state level. Language is a community project which should be dealt with at a community level. Which is why I said something. I think we should try to be a bit kind in how we speak.

    Now that I think about it I don’t think calling people stupid is helpful either. I feel like a lot of “stupidity”, especially as relates to politics, is about low quality schooling and a social media landscape which is designed to implant and further certain beliefs.

    Yeah anyway, I guess, mostly I’m tired of watching the world crumble around me and would like to start building things so this mostly ended up as a pile of my random thoughts. I hope you’re having a less tiring day today 😊
















  • I’m a woman and the standards for men really upset me as well. I would 100% support any man who started wearing a kilt to the office as a way to fight the norms.

    I read the other comment a woman put here and I get what she’s saying, but I did also think she was minimising how much men are completely discouraged from any sort of self expression in clothing. Although also to be fair, I don’t work in an industry where there’s an expectation for women to look pretty so men can ogle them, so I probably just don’t have the experience to feel as strongly about it.

    I guess, we should all fight against the injustices we see, and help each other against the ones we can’t see.


  • Well, unfortunately I have several levels in “minor cretin”, so when you asked me what I wanted, the concept of food had never even occurred to me and my stomach was doing the REEEEEEEE but now that I smell a food it occurs to me that the REEEEEE was maybe hunger instead of nausea so now I’m hungy

    But in my relationship I’d just tell my fiance I’m hungy now and then we’d order more food together because we are not 5.
