We once had progressive taxation in this country, and it was the only effective tool we had to rein in the excesses of capitalism. Reagan and his minions in the Congress did away with that, and the USA has been in decline ever since.

This is beyond cruelty and an obvious violation of the 8th U.S. Constitutional Amendment as written:

Reminds me of a late night talkshow host asking folks if they were in favor of the Afordable care act and they replied "yes." The same folks when asked if they were in favorcof Obamacare replied "no." 🤦🏾♂️

How I relate parenting to raising free-thinking children, reminds me of how I was raised.
How many of us are walking around with our parents' voices in our heads? And those voices aren't always the kindest. I know I do. I'm trying to make sure that doesn't happen to my son.

And as his mom, my job was to reiterate that the costumes were for whoever wanted to wear them.
When it came to him picking who he wanted to be for Halloween, I just wanted him to be safe, as some of the toys that came with the costumes didn't always look safe.

This parent's question reminded me when my son was younger and we went shopping for his Halloween costume. Despite my not introducing gender to him, he was fully aware of what he considered "boy" costumes and "girl" costumes.

And that means that we have to make sure we don't pass down our limiting beliefs to children. They should be able to freely form their own opinions, especially when their opinions contradict ours.
It becomes a learning opportunity for them and a growth opportunity for us.

I dislike when we try to adultify children, whether through their actions, choices, or intentions.
I think one aspect of parenting that isn't talked about is that we should raise children to think and act as they desire, not as we desire.

I was scrolling through FB and one of the local mom groups I'm in asked: what age should you allow your child to wear opposite-gender Halloween costumes?
My answer was simple: when they're old enough to pick out their costume they're old enough to wear whatever gender costume they want.

Because what this comes down to is whether or not you've gotten consent to do X, Y, Z.
I think patriarchy has given men a false sense that they don't need anyone's consent...except when applied in reverse.
And that's truly sad.

When you disregard someone's boundaries, especially when they've explicitly stated them, what you're saying is you don't respect them or their boundaries.
Even when they haven't explicitly stated them, you're still saying you don't value their autonomy.

And this doesn't refer to just intimate partners. I can't tell you how many times I've had boundaries intentionally and repeatedly crossed in professional and friendly settings.
Those same boundaries were also crossed with intimate partnerships.

Men need to unlearn that crossing someone's boundaries is synonymous with love and applying appropriate pressure in a relationship.
Actually, crossing boundaries has the potential to be abusive. And when it's not abusive, it's still wrong.

I wrote a lot this year. When threads dropped, my writing became more in-depth. The creative juices flowed easier and I often sat at my laptop and let the thoughts work themselves out. And sometimes the thoughts were profound.
Here are some of my favorite threads from the year.

And while studies have shown that companies with more DEIB tend to make more money, better, products/services, etc.
That also doesn't mean that a quick fix to your DEIB problem is to market to diverse people. Companies want our money but never want us.

So if you think hiring the first diverse person on your team is going to make a difference, think again. Especially if they now report to someone who is not culturally aware and doesn't even know how to manage them.

I wish non-white people could live our best lives at the same salary with the same opportunities (and no stress) as white people. But we often aren't afforded that reality because the very structure that breathes life into all of society does so at our expense.

And a buzzword of recent years that companies are marketing with their DEIB is anti-racism.
But here's the kicker, if you have someone racist working for your company then your company isn't anti-racist.
And that racist person more than likely is high up the food chain. And there isn't just one.
