hmm this comm has been really quiet. what kind of stuff would people like to see? trollx style memes? more serious discussion posts/articles?

(obviously, some posts are better than none but I'd like to be thoughtful about it)

    That's a good question. I think the most value I ever got out of the womenby space in the discord was just having casual conversation with other left womenby, so maybe some sort of occasional recurring megathread?

    I wouldn't be mad at memes either

    I write poems. I think they will be safe here. Always room for discussion.

    Time Makes Islands

    Feeling low
    Feeling down
    Something bad
    Going on

    This is life
    Every day
    Something good
    Goes away

    Words don't help
    Words are wrong
    Words are where
    Pain comes from

    Time is good
    Time goes by
    Time makes islands
    In the sky

    Clouds are kind
    Full of rain
    Wash my face
    Clear my name

      Some poems are quite positive.

      The Queen

      When the Queen dies
      We will get a day off for the funeral.

      She has been here a long time
      Could she not have two funerals?

      One on Friday and another on Monday.
      Then we could have a long weekend.

    Would love to see profiles of women revolutionaries, and how they were perceived by male counterparts of their time.

    Also more analysis of class though the lens of feminism and motherhood. And stories about the depredations of capitalism on women specifically - we need these stories to help awareness among our fellow lib wine moms. Motherhood under communism- what does that look like?

    Would also like to understand anything and everything about the pros/cons of gender abolition.
