Hiratsuka Raichō, born on this day in 1886, was an anarchist writer, journalist, political activist, and pioneering Japanese feminist. Her efforts helped legalize Japanese women joining political organizations in 1922.

Upon graduating from university, Hiratsuka founded Japan's first all-women literary magazine, Seitō (青鞜, literally "Bluestocking"), in 1911.

Hiratsuka began the first issue with the words, "In the beginning, woman was the sun", a reference to the Shinto goddess Amaterasu, and to the spiritual independence which women had lost. Adopting the pen name "Raichō" ("Thunderbird"), she began to call for a women's spiritual revolution.

Hiratsuka also founded the New Women's Association with fellow women's rights activist Ichikawa Fusae. It was largely through this group's efforts that the Article 5 of the Police Security Regulations, which barred women from joining political organizations and holding or attending political meetings, was overturned in 1922.

me when I think about Undertale again (it is both artistically-inspiring and daunting to me, almost every time I do think about it I find a new angle to think about it from, it was a formative experience as an impressionable listless middle-schooler, fundamentally shaped my creativity, and I live in awe and fear of Toby Fox. also, I hope those little MS-DOS sprites are happy in my unblemished save) k-pain

I finally beat the Outer Wilds dlc. Made me cry like a baby. Didn't realize it was the end, took a second to really sink in. Most emotional game I've played since Disco Elysium. Even the vaguest discussion of it would be massive spoilers, so just go play the game.

Now I'm looking for a new exploration game to tide me over until Subnautica 2. Might check out Pacific Drive, though it didn't seem as cozy.

Don't know if the site will be here when I get home, love you all. If we get seperated, there is always live.hexbear.net and if that's down there's the backup https://cytu.be/r/hexbear.

I've watched oppenheimer (meow-fiesta and assistant (kitty-birthday-sad ).

Amazing how downey jr is recognizable from his eyes alone, and how much time film spent on communism stuff, yay nolan. The assistant, on the other hand, is some bleak shit ngl.

If you wanna see another RDJ role as a (satire) anticommunist, he plays multiple roles in The Sympathizer on HBO. Quite enjoyable performance

Got my hands on a pair of raw denim jeans with most of the bells and whistles(no leather patch with pointless branding) and I really think my workwear larp is going to be irreversible now.

Shit just really is that cool(to me). It's very neat to roll up the goofy long pants legs.

Burnt out, tired. Just eating instant ramen and candy throughout the day. Kinda depressed, really. But hey, having off today is still a good way to spend that.

we should do a proper struggle session about dating w/in organizing the seeds for it are there but i think it’d be a hoot to do a full fledged one

[–] rhubarb@hexbear.net 10 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The simplest solution is that you are allowed to date inside the party, but you are not allowed to break up

Pretty sure there hasn't been one because we all know it's inappropriate.
