Re: Velveteen Rabbit. They didn't have to burn the rabbit, though, they could have just locked it in a box for a week or left it out in the sun for an afternoon. Childhood tragedy averted through germ theory!
or boiled it. There was actually a huge thing in the UK where they declared WWII and all these people moved to kill their pets and a few days later they had to put out official message “uh there’s no actual reason to do that”

I can’t stop laughing at this Amanda Marcotte piece “Rallying Crying for Trump: Why There Will Be No Trump, Neverwas, Neverme”
Ted Cruz’ latest ad features two women – in the image above, one of them is beating up her husband, saying “See what he did to me?”, while the other is torturing a cat for fun. It’s a cold, dry cat in a winter wonderland.There is literally no way a situation like this could possibly happen in a fairy tale. The heroes get a hardon for some reason and in turn their hardons are hard on their supporters

All the “oh sure it’s an epidemic but you surely must sacrifice everything to save my precious woobie” makes me realize we’ve lost the spirit of Margery Williams’ “Velveteen Rabbit”
That being the 1922 Where-in-the-Hundred-Acre-Wood-the-Red-Fern-Grows kids’ book where a stuffed toy becomes a child’s emotional anchor and then gets fucking incinerated in a velvet fever outbreak, which is the kind of kids’ book a nation coming out of WWI goes for, apparently

Re: Hispanic servants - you're discounting kids who spent a lot of time in hotels for whatever reason.
who does this mean, poor kids with their parents in motels? Eloise-ass expats in residential hotels? is the concept you’ve cleverly delineated a category to contain both?

when I was a child, and even an adolescent – after I had personally learned how to fly planes – I repeatedly had dreams where I was on the ground and a plane crashed near me. I stopped having these dreams in my early twenties
I don’t want to blow this up too big, into the same adolescence para-Freudian dream analysis and the idea of “recurring nightmares” were still a thing and ::wanking motion, mostly::
I maybe remembered dreams with this motif 9 times with a sense of more but still, that’s something of a trend
