A deeply moving story of growing up too fast, how we bear the costs of who we choose to become & how sometimes exploitative labor gets masked with terms like "feminine/maternal instinct". Poignant, gem-like lines found throughout, too. Thank you @EBasevich for writing this 🙏

I have a new paper out! It'll please nobody. It is a defence of standpoint epistemology that fans of standpoint epistemology will not think is real standpoint epistemology but enemies will think is indeed. Yay! Official link: academic.oup.com/monist/arti… Free: liamkofibright.com/uploads/4…
