TIL in 1869, George Hull hired people to make a stone statue of a man, bury it, then later pretend to discover an ancient giant. The hoax was so lucrative that P.T. Barnum offered $50,000. The owner declined. Barnum had a replica made and said he had the real giant and the owner had the fake. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car…

Our health care org has given up on recruiting nurses, and is working on more "creative" solutions (i.e. how to get blood out of a stone). What are some incentives that would *actually* reduce turnover, knowing you're starting out currently understaffed?

For me, it would be parental leave (full paid 12 weeks). We would be the only place a nurse could work inpatient in our area that offered anything over 6 weeks, and it would be a huge incentive.

Of course, they didn't try anything like this and just hired a bunch of travelers, but what else would actually reduce turnover and help get out of this pit? (Not like admin will listen to us).

The Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time: #368 George Harrison- All Things Must Pass (1970)

#368- George Harrison-All Things Must Pass

George Harrison’s legacy has been reconciled   since his death twenty years ago. Always in the shadow of Paul and John his voice was smothered. His first album post-Beatles break up proved that he was a force to be reckoned with. “My Sweet Lord” “What Is Life” “isn't A Pity” Would be stand out tracks on any of the late Beatles albums. In fact you could argue they are the most beatlesque tracks post break up. While Mccartney and Lennon were experimenting on their solo albums. Harrison was making an album that proved his was just as crucial to the success of the band as the other two. ATMP was ranked #433 on the RS list in 2012 that is a surprising 65  album bump up. I believe it should be ranked higher on both listsThis is a least a top 200 album of all time Harrison would unfortunately never reach the heights of this amazing album again. It is an album that is a must listen for anyone who love great late 60’s-early 70’s rock music.

Sobre George Martin, mulheres de ASOIAF e ser um 'escritor feminista'

O texto abaixo é uma tradução

----------------------------

Este longo post foi trazido a vocês por mim após começar minha recente releitura ASOIAF, focada exclusivamente nas senhoras, além de algumas outras questões muito pontuais, a saber: a abordagem de Martin nas personagens femininas.

É um fenômeno interessante (que não é de forma alguma exclusivo deste fandom em particular ou mesmo da comunidade geek) que homens escritores famosos tenham ganhado renome apenas por serem 'feministas', segundo aclamação popular, e nada mais.

Um exemplo seria Charlie Kaufman; outro seria Joss Whedon (que está atualmente no meio de uma controvérsia exatamente porque o público percebeu que ele, na verdade, não é nada especial neste quesito).

Escritores deste tipo (e eu estou totalmente colocando Martin no grupo) não são de forma alguma feministas - eles são simplesmente bons escritores, que se saem bem com personagens, e assim acabam escrevendo personagens femininas bem trabalhadas. Repita depois de mim: se você consegue escrever, você consegue escrever mulheres.

Isso não é indicação de qualquer tipo de inclinação para a justiça social. Em uma era de ativismo em fandoms e de representatividade feminina deficitária, basta isso para que alguns escritores sejam elevados à santidade. O que não significa que eles mereçam.

Martin é um desses homens. Ele não quer subverter o patriarcado, como vejo ser sugerido de vez em quando. Ele é apenas astuto o bastante para perceber quais tropos subverter para fazer uma história interessante.

(Eu até sou da opinião de que todo essa subversão foi apenas uma ‘cortina de fumaça’ literária e que ASOIAF vai virar uma fantasia mais estereotipada em Ventos do Inverno/Sonho de Primavera, mas acho que teremos que esperar para ver).

GRRM retratar uma ampla gama de personagens femininas em seu trabalho não significa automaticamente que ele as vê como algo mais do que um exercício de escrita; isso não deveria lhe conferir uma medalha de feminista.

Falamos muito sobre o teste de Bechdel por aqui, o que não é de forma alguma um indicativo de como um trabalho se torna feminista, mas é sempre algo interessante de se fazer, então eu decidi dar uma testada.

  • · A primeira interação feminina nos livros é em Arya I, quando ela está discutindo com Sansa. Estão falando do Joff. Descartamos.
  • · Então Septã Mordane critica sua costura. Este é bom.

How do you feel about women with very particular sexual boundaries, e.g. stone butches?

Been wondering about this recently, because I've only ever sussed the matter out on a small, interpersonal scale.

There's a storied history of lesbians having non-normative relationships to sexual pleasure. The best example is probably the stone butch, who rejects direct genital contact and instead gets off from giving. I'm butch, through and through, and while I'm not stone, I've always preferred a certain kind of "masculinizing" touch. Namely: I don't like having my chest touched at all, and I keep a sports bra on during sex; I don't do penetration of any kind either.

There's something about both acts that simply turns me off, and always has. It's contrary to the way I see myself sexually and the things I want to do with (and to) women. To clarify, it's not like I have some sort of issue showing those parts of myself to intimate partners; I love me some no-holds-barred naked cuddling, lol. Engaging them just doesn't have any erotic appeal and actively toggles me out of arousal, for both psychological and sensory reasons.

I'm wondering how common this kind of thing is on both sides of the equation. How does the average lesbian feel about sleeping with someone with "stone-ish" tendencies? How many lesbians have these tendencies themselves?
