my name is Joseph Yablonsky. I have never met you before, but I hate you regardless. if I met you in public, I'd still hate you. I probably wouldn't hate you any more than how much I currently hate you, because I don't think that would be humanly possible. I would probably punch you in the face though.

hoodoo ain't scary, it's a traditionally-Black form of folk magic not unnerving, but awesome - the nation sack: Robert Johnson, Come In On My Kitchen posted:COME ON IN MY KITCHEN (take 1) A nation sack is a lady-only form of the mojo bag or gris-gris, a (usually flannel) pouch filled with magical items. Mojo bags can have many purposes but a nation sack is most often used in spells of domination over a husband or lover. it's kept close to the privates - often hanging from the waistband of a skirt - and if it's touched by a man it loses its power. the nickels in the nation sack were part of her spell so as well as stealing money from her he destroyed a source of power. and yep, that's the source of the word "mojo"

pookel posted:In 2001, an 8-year-old girl named Lauren was found locked in a closet in Texas The Tampa Bay Times had this longform series about Dani, a child who was locked away and essentially 'feral' when DCF discovered her: The Girl in the Window. At the time I worked in FL in the area of child abuse prevention and was pretty desensitized to the horrors you'll read in DCF case notes but oh... man. She was 7 years old and weighed 46lb.

Filox posted:What the gently caress is wrong down there that they let this poo poo happen? I mean, a lot of what was wrong is outlined in the articles, but still, why the gently caress would it take any state that long to fix their poo poo when children's lives were at stake? Money and politics. DCF is constantly fighting to receive adequate funds. Florida is required to have a balanced budget every year and welfare/entitlement programs are easier to cut because the people affected don't hire lobbyists.

Wiggy Marie posted:The total obsession with finding a man, and being considered a "spinster" at 29, even by her own mother's reckoning, sheds a pretty clear light on why she was the way she was. This woman graduated with a degree, had a career and was considered good at the job by those around her, and yet because she didn't have a husband she "had nothing." Yeesh.  so... the patriarchy was to blame

At the risk of returning this thread to "goons talk about boring poo poo that happens to them," I get p bad akathisia once or thrice a year, and Staker's right about it. Indica or high-CBD weed's the only thing that's ever allowed me to ignore it, and even then it's not complete relief. there's this warning/prodromal/early sensation i get in my calves that's a lot like a trail of ants that relents as soon as i move the leg; after 2 or 3 of those within a couple of minutes i know clear out some pacing space and call out of work tomorrow, i ain't sleeping tonight ChickenOfTomorrow has a new favorite as of 08:33 on Dec 8, 2016 |

Phanatic posted:Jesus. You couldn't pay me enough money to be a white farmer in South Africa right now: Tch, we're supposed to be eating the rich, not burying them alive. The glaringly uneven balance of power that had persisted since the first slaves were put to work on the farms remained largely intact. “The spatial geography of apartheid has proved very resilient to change in the Cape Winelands,” Weeder says. “Land, land ownership, and the wealth associated with that are still firmly entrenched within white capital. For black people, moving out of the cycle of poverty is still very difficult without access to land.”
