My cat is somewhere between 15 and 17. I think she’s going to outlast us all. I’m pretty sure sneaks into my room at night and sucks the life out of the rest of the family.

Yeah but, that cat is from England. They have like, metric years or whatever.

Let it be known I welcome any conspiracy theories about whether or not Nutmeg really died of old age...

I’M STILL MAD AT LA LLORONA VS LA LLORONA!!! I didn’t get to vote because I didn’t know which one was the right one. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Waaaaaaaaaaaaa. I’m llorando.

I for one am really looking forward to Baba Yaga’s book tour though.

I’m Greek, so Siren for the win. Done.

These are both worthy options, but I’m all in for Baba Yaga. Once we’re no longer lethal-sex desirable, we are all the crone. Our wisdom is our power. Our rejection of the patriarchy is the reason they fear us. We surround ourselves with our sisters because Fuck Dudes. We are mysterious and strong and don’t care what

Baba Yaga will win the popular vote but Siren will surely take the Electoral College.

The Chicken Leg boots as high fashion aren’t getting nearly enough cred.

It’s cheesecake all over again...

WHAT?!?!

After years of sighing in disappointment at the tendency of the brackets to coalesce around the most neutral options, I’m pleased to see that Jezebel is firmly on the side of the murderous and monstrous.

On the contrary, I am taking this seriously (honestly embarrassed how invested I am in this) and am solidly anti-Baba. Sirens: Smashing the patriarchy one ship at a time.

The suspense is killing me.

I feel like ultimately this has comed down to People Taking This Seriously vs. Everyone Else.

I remember my mom always made sure to get my sisters the black versions of dolls. It’s pretty impressive and admirable how hard our parents have to fight just to make sure we grow up with some kind of representation in our lives.

Correction: “twot” (American) means ladyparts. “twaat” (British) means stupid person. The meaning changes with the pronunciation. A twaat can have a twot. snerk.

Bullshit. Have you heard the way those wankers pronounce aluminium?

But you Brits also say “pasta” with a flat a, and it always sounds ridiculous.

My dad ALWAYS hated that. Ninja turtles was all I got because “you look more green than you do white”. At the time he just seemed like a dick, now I know what he means. TMNT and some Nerf guns were good enough for me.
