"Housed on UPN, the same channel that gave us Moesha and One on One, it was the crown jewel in a lineup that made Black primetime feel like home. Mara Brock Akil gave us Joan, Toni, Maya and Lynn, four women whose lives mirrored the complexities of Black womanhood in all its shades."

3/n: palpable relief at having #representation in the #yourparty room and getting the most cheers. It seems the theme of being out #IRL is also their concern, wanting to engage people where they are rather than just in assemblies.

While I think there is reasonable rationale for reforming the FOI process, #AlboPM is going about it the best way he can to put off the electorate and enrage all progressives therein..
I mean, govt operate at our behest (via the electoral process) and anything a govt does which falls within the bounds of ‘public interest’ ought to be releasable (Including contractual information) as tested in the Courts (that’s why we have legal systems) no more, no less.
By all means, reform, but ensure that reform is for the greater good and a strenghtening of social democratic institutions FFS.
Counting on Greens and cross bench to make it so…
Sad at #Labor’s performance so far this term… so very sad.

I want to clarify that I am not making the case that Murderbot is a sexual being. It is not only agendered (hence the it/its pronouns) but, canonically, solidly asexual.

@homohortus je préfère le terme de gouvernement représentatif, car démocratie signifie que le démos gouverne, ce contredit directement l'observation de notre société.
On pourrait aussi remettre en cause le mot "représentatif", polysémique, qui peut laisser entendre que l'assemblée nationale serait représentative du peuple, comme le serait une assemblée tirée au sort ; ça n'est évidemment pas le cas.
Mais j'ai pas mieux à proposer

If participation in the UN General Assembly can be blocked this easily, it shouldn’t reside in the United States.
Absolutely disguisting.
Palestinians denied representation again. Like they have been since the same general assembly gave their lands away to fucking terrorists.

I watched it alone on my little television, turning it off at the faintest creak of a floorboard outside my room. My curiosity was innocent, but there was still a “thrill of the forbidden,” as any gay media was considered “adult”.

Schumpeter : la démocratie représentative comme marché des élites

La démocratie représentative : un théâtre d’ombres où le peuple disparaît
Proudhon l’avait compris : la représentation politique n’est pas la voix du peuple, mais son effacement.Élire, c’est déléguer pour être neutralisé.
