This past weekend I had a dressy event, but it also snowed, because midwest. I can’t tell you how subversive I felt by choosing to wear FLATS to this event. I must have asked my husband three times, “oh jeeze, do I look okay just wearing these shoes? Every other woman is in heels.” (Of course he was like, yes wtf are… Read more

Let’s all thank The Atlantic for filling this gaping journalistic hole. Truly a story that cried out to be told.

I respect anybody who grew up buried in the Just World Fallacy and who manages to walk away. Thinking you’re better/smarter/a harder worker than people who are suffering is a helluva drug. See: my entire family. (The only just bankruptcies are our bankruptcies! Other people are lazy and entitled! We just had bad luck!)

“Mummy, you’ve destroyed my life! I shan’t speak to you ever again! Now....give me this week’s sack of money immediately!”

You know, I do actually feel sorry for the influencer because her parents really did fuck up her life, for a while anyway. After all, she was/is the child, and they are the adults.
None of this (faking athletic activity and saying you will go out for women’s crew, or even just filling out the damn application) was her… Read more

I mean, he is a radical by the standards of the Catholic hierarchy, but when compared with Catholic laypeople in the US, he’s not amazingly liberal. There’s always been a strong disconnect at a political level between the bureaucracy and ordinary Catholics in the US, which was why it was vexing to hear people here… Read more

Here's an idea, ladies. Stop fighing to help lead one of the world's oldest kleptocracies and start fighting to destroy it.

Color me completely not surprised. I am Exhibit A, formerly devout good Catholic girl, grew up in the Church and at one point in my life found spiritual comfort in the community and traditions....until I grew up, went to college, read up on feminism, and realized that the nagging feeling of being “lesser” was not only… Read more
