Yola goes absolutely bananas, every single time.
I read this year, completely at random. Bizarre and painful. I think it's an underrated gem and could be read as a feminist classic.
What a sad, strange book. After the death of her mother, a young woman is left with a violent, bullying father and his new spiteful girlfriend. What starts as a kind of Cinderella tale becomes something simultaneously more fantastic and unsettling - a story of innocence in a cruel world.
Today’s reading:

I loved this show as a kid. Was genuinely bummed when it was cancelled.

they’ve been saying it and saying it and saying it, like we all knew, but there’s something about seeing it in print on the official government site where people who don’t know any better will still go looking for information that just really sent a chill down my spine
The U.S. government is now inarguably spreading medical disinformation that is going to kill babies preferentially.
Period.
This is an INTOLERABLE. UNPRECEDENTED. DANGEROUS. ATTACK. ON ALL OF US.

my best guess as to what’s going on with gender and society is that all the discourse around abortion + trans rights bubbled up and caused heterosexuals to start thinking about gender en masse, along with all the other stuff, and the untenability of it all just isn’t something normies can handle
