Annie Kenney (1879 - 1953)

Sat Sep 13, 1879

Image


Annie Kenney, born on this day in 1879, was an English working-class, socialist suffragette who became a leading figure in the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU). She co-founded its first branch in London with Minnie Baldock.

Kenney attracted the attention of the press and public in 1905 when she and Christabel Pankhurst were imprisoned for several days for assault and obstruction after disrupting a Liberal rally attended by Winston Churchill and Sir Edward Grey, demanding women's suffrage.

The incident was credited with inaugurating a new phase in the struggle for women's suffrage in the UK, with the adoption of militant tactics. Emmeline Pankhurst wrote in her autobiography that "this was the beginning of a campaign the like of which was never known in England, or for that matter in any other country...we interrupted a great many meetings...and we were violently thrown out and insulted. Often we were painfully bruised and hurt..."

Yongjin is a struggling orphan–a blunt realist with no time or money to spare on superstitious nonsense. But on his 16th birthday, he finds his life taking a dramatic turn when his classmate Huisu, whom he had never interacted with before, suddenly asks to be his girlfriend. For the first time, Yongjin isn’t alone–but his new company isn’t exactly the kind he had always wished for, as he finds himself being chased by spirits instead! Though this wasn’t quite the sweet sixteen he had in mind, Yongjin must now navigate through a new world he never thought existed.

À l’occasion de la Saison croisée Brésil-France 2025, le Forum des images donne carte blanche à la Cinemateca Brasileira et au Festival do Rio pour un aperçu du documentaire contemporain brésilien, conjugué au féminin.

La présence des femmes dans le documentaire brésilien a commencé dans les années 1960 et reste très forte jusqu'aujourd’hui. La sélection proposée s’étend de 2001 à nos jours et aborde des sujets variés, où l’intime se mêle au politique, témoignant de la diversité des regards et des personnalités de ces réalisatrices, entre Maria Augusta Ramos, Eliane Caffé, Eliza Capai et Susanna Lira, qu’elles parlent d’institutions ou de contestation, qu’elles parlent du corps social ou de celui des femmes.

We all hate google and youtube, but overall as a community we're all simultaneously lukewarm and non-committal about pushing towards using an alternative. I admittedly cling to invidious frontends for dear life.

It seems like whenever somebody asks for an alternative to youtube, they're offered Odysee and Peertube, but inevitably many others chime in about the shortcomings of both of those platforms.

Can we as a community come to a consensus as to which of these platforms should be pushed forward?

I don't even think it needs to be a binary choice. Obviously youtube cannot be immediately replaced for it's archival of educational and tutorial videos, but we can at least push newcomers towards using invidious frontends for those instances.

Maybe Odysee is better for some type of content over Peertube. Let's discuss which platform works best for what and try to be more active about sharing and promoting them not just to viewers but potential creators as well.

If you go to share a youtube link, try to see if that video exists on an alternate platform first and share that link instead. I think that's a good first step towards getting away from youtube in the privacy community.

But youtube alternatives are still very much on the fringe and I'm hoping this post will at least inspire some discussion about changing that.

AI Summary:
The curfew in Nepal's capital and surrounding areas lifted on Saturday. In Kathmandu and neighboring Lalitpur areas, officials told people they could move freely. The massive demonstrations began on Monday over a social media ban. Tens of thousands of protesters attacked and burned the parliament, the presidential residence and businesses. The curfew allowed residents a few hours per day to leave their homes to buy food and supplies. The demonstrations were called the protest of Gen Z. Many young people were also angry about what they call “nepo kids” of political leaders who enjoy luxurious lifestyles while most youth struggle to find work.

Although MAGA figureheads have been quick to point fingers at the left for Kirk’s death, Tyler’s grandmother, Debbie Robinson, 69, insisted that they come from a family of Trump supporters.

She spoke with Daily Mail on Friday after news of Robinson’s arrest broke. “My son, his dad, is a Republican for Trump,” Debbie told the outlet. “Most of my family members are Republican. I don’t know any single one who’s a Democrat.”

I scooped the poop!

This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.
