Omg Drusssiilllaaa. What’s she up to now? I need more of her acting in my life.

I can get very excited about some hot buttered toast.

But to those who say they’ve never heard a Katy Perry, Beyonce song, I say: How do you know? You probably have, but you just weren’t aware

Now I feel like I’m catching the marriage bug. WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING TO MY CYNICISM WITH THESE STORIES?!

She was great! It was an emotional and enlightening segment.

Don’t be embarrassed! So much music and not enough time and money to get it all. As for Throwing Muses, any of those 80s albums are good (the self-titled first one, House Tornados, etc.) and the early 90s stuff like The Real Ramona as well. These are all when Tanya Donnelly was still playing with them too. :)

Agreed! I find that not enough people who like similar music know about Throwing Muses or Kristen’s solo stuff either. I’m always trying to spread the knowledge.

Love Car Talk! I was so sad to hear of Tom’s passing last year. :(

The point was that they received a ton of unnecessary complaints about nearly any woman they had on the show on a regular basis, but never men. No complaints for Sedaris or Glass. And it wasn’t like they were complaining about solely super odd voices like Joanna Newsom’s singing voice either. You should give the…

Ahhh, I wish I were as lucky! No one I work with knows what I’m talking about at any given moment lol. I finally got my bf to listen to a few episodes a while back though, so he now walks around singing the Powder Milk jingle. :)

Also, this isn’t a music memoir, but Michelle Tea’s Valencia is all about being a punk lesbian girl in 90s San Francisco. I also like her graphic novel Rent Girl, which she wrote about her experiences as a sex worker along with Laurenn McCubbin who did the illustrations.

Omg, I need to get these and Kim Gordon’s new one from the library immediately. I would add Kristen Hersch’s Rat Girl.

I really hate the way people hold up not engaging with pop culture as some kind of status symbol.

Yeah, it reminds me of the This American Life segment that dealt with pretentious readers who wrote in to say they couldn’t listen to several of the regular contributers who are women because of their “vocal fry”. Gimme a break, douchebags. *eyeroll* That said, I’m still a big public radio lover as well. I have so…

Haha I agree!

I hope this person does! I wanna hear the scoop. I have heard similar things before, but no one has divulged anything specific.

Focus on the positive, she preaches, “and you’ll be shocked at how many more positive things start happening.”

True, it’s all the same thing, different name.

;)

Yep. It’s a terrible, dark place. Love your handle!
