  • Great news even if way late, and I’m happy for them, but wtf is this “article”? One sentence reinforcing the headline plus a screenshot with no further info or elaboration? Really hoping my adblocker has just blanked the remainder of the article and the author actually quotes the city hall at some point, elaborates on twitter being a Nazi bar for those who live under a rock, and mentions where the city hall has chosen to post instead.

  • Structurally our societies are usually oriented around people finding romantic life partners, and the state recognizes and makes life easier for people in these relationships. Modern life, especially with the current housing shit going on in North America, is much harder if your preferred way to live is a single income person living alone. This definitely disadvantages aro/ace people, though I’m not sure I’d call it discrimination.

    Tangentially related, but I can’t miss an opportunity to bring up Elizabeth Brake’s really interesting paper, Minimizing Marriage. If the whole thing looks a little long I’d recommend reading at least chapter 7 to get the heart of her proposal, it’s a real eye opener.
