Goddamnit.

haha! That made me laugh. If she’s evil, her hair will be pulled straight back then, too. Because evil women wear high heels and their hair pulled straight back. ::sad eyeroll::

I thought she was the park’s operations manager and one of their scientists. A theme park operations manager has to wear sensible shoes. All that walking. Has the script changed?

YES, SHE DID. SHE WAS HOT. And she looked capable and like a person with a brain and things.

Well, that’s annoying, to make her character some backroom scientist who never goes outside. It still doesn’t make sense to me. You create a bunch of dinosaurs, but you never go out to observe them in the field? I call shoes shenanigans. Lab work puts you on your feet quite enough. I can’t imagine my friends who do…

This sucks because, in the first one, Ellie wore boots. In the mud and on site. As one does. Why couldn’t she just wear boots? Because that’s what someone working in the field would do, right? smh

ha! Maybe there are no real women. Maybe there are only people who can put on eyeliner and those who can’t. I will show myself to the gulag. heh

:( Today sucks.

Yes! It still depresses me though!!! Why can’t I do it???? What is wrong with me that I can’t eyeline??? heh I also can’t paint my own toenails and fingernails very well. I am beginning to see I have an issue with manual dexterity. gah!

You know, just this morning, my seven year old threatened to misbehave at school and “make her friends not like her” because I wouldn’t give her something. I took away some privileges for this threat and then reminded her who she would be hurting if she did that. The revelation of “Wow, that was stupid of me” on her…

I didn’t say it was wrong; I said it’s too soon to claim victory and assume a new way of being. Indeed, by saying, “all they have to do is imagine differently,” well, that’s not really true, is it? Would we say that about any other oppressed group, that all they have to do is imagine things differently? If I said that…

I would love it if that second point could be true. But, honestly? It’s not. We are still defined, all of us, by that patriarchal system. We have to cast that off first, in all platforms, before we can find better identities. I grew up in a time period where I was told, as a woman, that I should submit to my husband…

Serious suggestion:

I would like all women to stand together and claim our ability to speak out. That’s why the article in the NYT is so awful. It’s asking for silence. It’s asking Caitlyn Jenner to be silent.

Confession: When I meet people who are that beautiful, I ... can’t look them in the eye. It’s ridiculous, but there it is.

I’m going to pretend I only read the top two, because I need to have that kind of day where the Internet isn’t showing me only the shit side of people.

This is the one place I have an issue. On the Congressional floor, a woman was tossed because she used the word “vagina.” I understand that words like “vagina” can be considered exclusionary, but I really cannot give up using the correct nomenclature for vulva, vagina, labia, and so on because some women do not…

::raising hand in eyeliner solidarity::

So. She figured out that the “1984” thing just made her look older. haha

Of course! It’s totally someone’s fault when they get cancer and have to blow it on those medical bills. Those bastards! They should just die!
