On Fridays, we will share links to news, blogs, and anything else we find interesting. We can’t catch everything, so you are invited to self-promote in the comments!

“Raavenb2619 discusses the nuances, limits, and potential of repulsed, indifferent, and favorable terminology.”
Unfortunately, it’s Tumblr, and Tumblr is a shitty “blog” platform which doesn’t even allow commenting.
Any blog worthy of that name must have: a) comments section, b) an archive. Which is why I’m also, for example, very much against using Facebook as a blogging platform.
Agree that this is frustrating. You’re welcome to use this space for any comments, and I can notify raavenb2619 if you like.
