Re: Seattle, you aren't that progressive

Cherish Hellfire — Mon, 01 Jan 2018 15:18:52 -0000

This is a rant born out of truths and experiences shared by people of color, and other marginalized groups who want to help fix the glaring inequities and suffering that result from Seattle's collective indifference. It's this indifference, clothed in "Progressive" ideals, that has caused...yes, *caused* the housing crisis, the homeless crisis, the mental health crisis, and allowed Seattle to become ground zero for the new face of hate, with multiple white supremacist/ white Nationalist/ Islamaphobic groups growing (Daily Stormer, Counter-Currents Publishing, American Vanguard, Northwestern Hammerskins, Firm 22, Crew 38, American Front, Pacific Coast Knights of the Klu Klux Klan, Northwest Front, Wolves of Vinland, ACT for America & more http://bit.ly/2CzfGmP ) and Washington State being described as "the last white Mecca" by arriving climate refugees from the southern states. Instead of facing the truth that Seattle's desire for money has left it morally bankrupt, voting in stadium upgrades and voting out homeless shelter support, Seattlites routinely disassociate from the reality that their personally profitable corporate serfdom *is actually killing people*.
Nikitta Oliver, you keep ranting and railing against the status-quo in this city. It gives me hope, and motivates me to join the chorus.

Re: Shooting On 580 In Oakland Shuts Down Two Eastbound Lanes

Other parts of the Bay Area do have "crime-y, shoot-y" stereotypes. East Palo Alto, Hayward, Richmond, Vallejo come to mind. The thing to remember is that they are just sterotypes, and are only kept alive through social prejudice, and lack of action. When I think of SF, it's likely based on my own experiences, not other peoples descriptions of a San Francisco sterotype, although that was not always true. I had nothing else to go on until I inhabited those streets, and met those people myself. My initial idea of stereotypical Oakland had more to do with community gardens, political action (think Black Panthers) and medical marijuana. I guess the things we see are occasionally reflections of what we expect to see.
To some, this crime may look like violent knuckleheads doing what people in Oakland do. To others, it may look like several generations of people living in poverty tearing each other apart through the frustrations that their short lives will also be looked down upon, prejudged, and their struggle disrespected.

It's possible that many people could put their words to better use by actually trying to see and change the issues that have caused almost an entire group of people right next to us to be denied social, educational, and economical opportunities because of their lack of privilege, instead of making flippant comments about an issue that is destroying the lives of our neighbors and most at risk communities.

Because no other part of the Bay Area has crime or shootings. Body parts in a suitcase in the middle of a busy sidewalk? Not Oakland.

Re: The Harvey Girls - 480 pages of comics featuring Little Audrey, Little Dot, and Little Lotta

Cherish Hellfire — Mon, 23 Jul 2012 20:32:26 -0000

Little Lotta was only comic I was allowed to have as a kid. I'd sneak my brothers hero comics, but Little Lotta was the only one that my mom sanctioned. I don't think I'd be the kind of woman I am today if I hadn't been exposed to a strong feminine archetype, and in the 70's, there simply weren't many.

Re: Elderly gentleman shoots armed robbers at Internet cafe in Florida

I wonder what the headline would be if it had been an elderly black man who had shot the robbers. Or a latino woman.

Re: Does the Internet rob us of the “joy of the unexpected” or does it provide it?

Cherish Hellfire — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 14:25:00 -0000

Seems like such a silly question. No one ever expects the Spanish Inquisition! Honestly, I'm amazed at who I "reallY" am because of my ability to use humanity as a sound board for my personal development, as well as taking part in the development of us as a species. If this is not at all surprising that everyone on the internet is doing this to some degree or another, it should be. My abilities are magnified by all of your ideas. I'm surprised that witnessing the quickening evolution of our species before our very eyes is being missed by some who have chosen to see only their own tree, and dismiss the grand forest vistas before us.

Life before the internet? Oil paints. It's cheaper and easier to paint in pixels these days. Suppose you could draw boobs on a napkin like to old days, kids. =)

Re: How To Eliminate Social Media Distractions And Get Work Done

Cherish Hellfire — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 05:10:27 -0000

I am so sorry that I have to point out the massive amount of fail all coiled up and ready to strike anyone who reads this article with the intention of actually learning something about how to avoid blowing off time on social networking sites. Looking on social networking sites to avoid looking on social networking sites sounds so much like masturbating to learn why you may want to cut back on masturbating. Yeah, not gonna happen. Listening to music, good point, unless the person wanting to hear a catchy tune goes to Last.fm or Blip.fm to do it. It's the possibility that someone may understand our own viewpoint that makes social media so delicious. If I *really* need to get work done, and do not expressly need the internet to accomplish it, I disconnect, or, if I need the internet to finish my work, I use an OS/machine/browser I hate, to lessen the chance I'll fall off task. Generally all of these issues are solved by actually enjoying the work that I do, so I never really see it as doing work. If you like what you do for a living you never "have to" go to work anyway.
It's a nice attempt to provide some ideas on how to get away from social media time leeches, and although I don't agree with your final theory, it is a great jumping off point for other to describe what works for them. Thanks for starting the conversation.
