I definitely want to keep her response in my back pocket to pull out when trying to explain this to men.

That is from her first album, All Hail The Queen. I think UNITY was done for the Girlstown soundtrack.

I got banned from Jezebel for taking issue with their recommendation that women should pack their vaginas with Chinese-made polyurethane sponges designed for “external use only.”

“racist toward whites”

OMG, yes. It was like back in the slavery days of Rome when the rich slave owners used to call the slaves Beccicus; which meant ignorant but came to embody being something less than a person. Then all those laws that discouraged voting and shared public spaces...wait, none of that ever happened.

Becky is a name. Nigger is a slur.

Someone commenting on that article added Boudica and said once upon a time she was considered a WOC. Boudica, Queen of the Britons.

The greys are big mad y’all

It’s for the science.

Apparently, being afraid is a fundamental aspect of being a police officer. Afraid of that kid? Shoot on sight. Though you smelled weed? Terminate with prejudice. Got called somewhere and there’s only a black person when you arrive? Better them than you? Somebody clue you in on good info? Get them kicked the fuck out.…

Well, you guys are also good for opening jars.

Heck yes. Eating and cooking seasonally is the best way to get your money’s worth and the most nutritional value. In the summer I’m all about berries, in early winter it’s pomegranate when they go on sale, then in late winter, citrus fruit. Apples in the fall but because they last so well, they’re a good choice all…

We need cooperatively owned strip clubs so the dancers are the owners, and if/when they move on they can cash out and pass the opportunity on to someone else. It’s not rocket science - it’s managing the basics of a strip club, and I’m sure they’re are many experienced dancers who can do the books, order the booze,…

American foodways fucking suck, and nowhere more than with vegetables. I spent time in South Korea and damn! Every single veggie they prepare is delicious and I could eat 3+ cups every day no problem. In America we’re like ‘drrrr boil it?’

no and no. Lentils are super cheap for instance. Same as carrots, corn, cucumbers. And vegetables ARE tasty. But I suppose people who are lazy will indeed prefer some frozen pizza (yuck) with some coke instead of some healthy meal with water (is there anything cheaper than water? and yet Americans drink soda all the…

Hahaha. My bestie, who NEVER wants kids, was telling me that she thought it was unfair to me that I lost a ton of weight only to get pregnant (and gain it all back). And I was telling her “No, I’m pretty sure losing weight is what helped us conceive because it can be more difficult when you’re overweight.” Her…

I’ve discovered that produce at the large chain grocery stores (Safeway etc etc) are flavorless and over priced. We’re lucky to have a lot of options where I live, but farmers markets and the smaller local stores seem to be where it’s at.

Not quickly anyway.

Considering how happy women are eating salads alone in advertisements - are you telling me I am being lied to?
