And we’re surprised that some doctors want endometriosis reclassified as cancer because of how it behaves. But sure, let’s keep studying the most attractive female body traits instead of addressing this severely understudied illness. I’ll just keep sitting here in pain, I guess.

wrote about how+why black artists get left out of the indie sleaze nostalgia discourse for p&p!
When “indie sleaze” was actually happening, it was just called indie. But as the era gets repackaged through playlists, party photos, and Pinterest boards, the Black artists who helped shape the era are being left out.
@Santigold, Spank Rock, and @kilokish shed light on the scene they experienced, the boxes the industry put them in, and how the people telling its story shape what gets remembered.

🚨 BREAKING: Half a million Palestinians in Gaza will lose monthly food assistance as funding shortages force major World Food Programme cuts ahead of winter, ABC News Australia reports.
➤ WFP is reducing its monthly reach from 1.6 million people to 1.1 million. Families receiving two food parcels will now get one, and flour bags will shrink.
➤ Daily hot meals have fallen from 250,000 to 150,000. Some families in hard-to-reach areas will receive meals every other day instead of daily. Cash assistance for 75,000 families is being cut by 40%.
➤ WFP’s Carl Skau said traditional donors, including the U.S. and Europe, have reduced funding. “It’s not because the needs are down … it’s only due to the lack of funding,” Skau told ABC.
➤ Around 1.4 million people face crisis-level hunger or worse, including 200,000 in emergency conditions. WFP says it urgently needs $450 million for six months of operations in Gaza and the occupied West Bank.

Your Gullah word of the day is “Mojo!” It originates from a specific Fulani word—moco'o—for a shaman, medicine man, or traditional healer specializing in spiritual remedies and esoteric knowledge. In Gullah, mojo means magic, a spell, or a charms bag. It’s one of the many Gullah words that made its way into standard American English.
