Came here to shout at the horror show being planned with this crude oil pipeline crossing the Cascade Mountains, a pristine area which is in the Ring of Fire.
Then I read the details and holy fuck what a boondoggle! IF this shit doesn’t destroy the environment, Canadian taxpayers will still be in the hole for tens of billions of dollars. This whole thing stinks of corruption. Someone is getting sweet kickbacks.
My CS classes were 90% male, and every professor was male, too. They all genuinely enjoyed my participation, and it was the only environment where I wasn’t objectified or disrespected. Same with my coworkers (again 90% male) when I went into the FAANG workforce; the men were happy to see women excel in a previously male-only field.
The general public was a different story until recently. Women were thrilled, a disturbing number of men refused to listen to me.
