i'm sure everyone can be normal about this post yes?

transcript:

a tumblr post:
autistichalsin posts:
Some of you are literally watching the right wing continuously try to expand the definition of "pedophilia" to include "existing around a child while queer," and then agreeing with them when they say pedophiles deserve to be summarily executed.

Not only does this place innocent people in danger of political executions, it also puts children in danger, as most children who are sexually abused have this done by someone close to them, and feelings that they would be responsible for the death of their abuser if they reported leads to lower rates of reporting. It also leads to higher rates of abusers murdering their victims when they're found out because the punishment will be the same anyway.

Part of being on the left is realizing that it's better to let 100 guilty men go free than to wrongly convict one. Another part of being on the left is realizing that one's life is never something others have the right to take away- even the most evil people alive. Yes, that includes mass murderers and rapists and pedophiles. Once you make one group acceptable to kill, you give others a vested interest in defining groups they have prejudice against into that group.

You have to start dealing with the fact that no crime makes one's life forfeit. Not even the worst most depraved and sadistic acts. The worst people alive have rights, and if you can't accept that they deserve them, at least try to accept that it is to your benefit that they retain rights no matter what they're accused of. And if you can't do even that, well... you just might be the kind of person who would cut off your nose to spite your face.

If you want to protect victims, if you want to protect minority groups, you have to realize that sex crimes, or any crimes at all, do not deserve the death penalty. Period.

brettdoesdiscourse replies:
When a certain kind of person "deserves" to die, bigots will make sure marginalized groups all are that kind of person.

little-gay-dowitcher replies:
My former neighbors were the “kill all pedos” type. They were also incredibly transphobic. And I was visibly queer. So guess who got stalked, harassed and threatened all throughout the brief period of time they babysat for their friend?

Stop enabling fascists. They’ve already proven they’re willing to attack minorities for no reason. Don’t give them a chance to excuse it.

Newb looking for fabric advice for a windbreaker

I just made an almost no-effort cloak, but when I tried to wear it outside I was disappointed to find that the wind cut right through the single layer of no-pill fleece I had cut into a U-shape and draped over my body. Who could have predicted that! 🤦‍♂️

I'm currently puzzling over how to upgrade my project into something that could protect me from the wind a bit better. I've got two main ideas:

  1. Add a layer of polyester or vinyl to keep out the wind, plus an additional layer of fleece. That way, the wind can't get through, and it's still decently light. But will it be loud?
  2. Make it out of heavier fabric. I don't care if it's waterproof, I just want to have something that both stops the wind and can be easily thrown over my shoulder like the ultra-wide scarf it is. But my poor little sewing machine 😢 might be too weak to puncture thick blanket material.

That said, I am new, and i don't know which fabrics are best for which roles. I would prefer a fabric that stops the wind, doesn't make a lot of noise, and can stand up to an iron in case I get some questionable ideas later on about waterproofing my cloak with wax.

unreasonably long rant about the weatherJust to be clear, the reason I'm making a cloak is that it's 40 degrees outside right now but I just know that next week it's gonna be in the 80s again because you cant spell fall without all here in the midwest, and if I wear my jacket I'm going to transfer all my belongings into its pockets and I'm not going to readjust when the weather decides it's time for August Part 2. That means I'll he walking around with a winter coat on in 80° weather because I'm too lazy to just take my keys and wallet out of my coat pocket and put it in my pants pockets. So I just want something that can do the job without the commitment. I'm a college student, nobody cares what I wear, I could wear whatever I want. I literally saw a classmate show up to one of my classes in fuzzy pajamas last week. This is tame in comparison. Cloaks are comfy, they aren't a hassle, and I can easily adjust to sudden changes in temperature by wearing it differently. I don't care about it holding heat; if I need heat I'll put on my coat. Waterproofing is a low priority, since I won't be outside for long periods of time. I just don't want the wind to go straight through the cloak like it's mesh.

Please comment what sort of fabric you think suits my needs best. If I'm completely on the wrong track here, please tell me so; i have never had any common sense at all and never will.
