Quickies: Climate change, spinsters, and comment sections
- In Florida, officials may ban term “climate change” – “The policy goes beyond semantics and has affected reports, educational efforts and public policy in a department with about 3,200 employees and $1.4 billion budget.”
- No more dried up spinsters – On the lack of non-spinster older women characters in fiction.
- Don’t read the comments and taxes – “Comments become an inevitable part of the modern experience of online media consumption. “Don’t Read The Comments” may be a valuable personal motto, but it does nothing to rectify a systemic problem if the system rewards what is effectively hate speech.”
- The comment section for every article every written about breastfeeding – I love the “every comment section ever” posts that The Toast does.
