read her work in a feminist lit class in college 😊
Who wants a medieval story time on the first autobiographer in English? She preached and led pilgrimages, but mostly she was known for weeping really loudly and publicly and making churchmen uncomfortable. Oh, she also had 14 kids and left them and her husband to go traveling (super popular choice).

I breastfed both my kids for two years and loved it. I had no problems. But many women do not have this experience. He has no right to an opinion on this matter. It's none of his business. Period.
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."

The thing is with Tarantino is everything he does is derivative. But he gets away with it because he claims it's an homage.

saw this in high school and permanently turned me off to anime
On multiple occasions, books of mine with protagonists in their 30s have been described as YA.
Occasionally I run into “Oh, but I think teens would love this!” I grit my teeth and tell myself they mean well. Just because a teen might like something does not make it YA! It’s okay!

Gen Z are going retro, with studies showing a resurgence in people buying tech in the modern age that can be dated back decades.

I've been struck by this attitude in several works of utopian literature. The most glaring case is The Southern Land, Known (1676) by Gabriel de Foigny, in which giant hermaphrodite Australians have done away with all the insects in their country.
This passage shocked me to my core.
The loss of biodiversity isn't a tragic accident or oversight, it was the plan!

I should read this.
There’s a book titled “Mothers Who Can't Love: A Therapist's Guide to Healing from the Emotional Damage of Unloving Mothers,” I recommend this book and years of therapy for women who struggled with mothers who were unloving! Helped me tremendously.
