Men Explain Things to Me | Rebecca Solnit

#thisonesforthegirls who have ever been mansplained to! #lilthjuly @Cinfhen @KarenUK

I really enjoyed your prompts, and I‘m sorry I didn‘t post more!

And I‘m sorry I‘ve been posting so much today. I have a cold and I‘m bored. 🤣🤧

LauraJ Every damn day this happens! 5y

Megabooks @LauraJ my dad, the Republican, tried to mansplain the detention centers (concentration camps, IMO) at the southern border to me today. 🙄🙄🤬 5y

Megabooks @LauraJ I also told him how I was thinking of volunteering for Amy McGrath, and he tried to say she couldn‘t possibly be running against Mitch. 5y

LauraJ @Megabooks Oh, you poor thing! Mitch is going down! 5y

Scochrane26 @Megabooks i met McGrath last yr & found out that my county has a lot more dems than I thought. Sometimes I feel like the only one. I hope she can bring him down. 5y

Megabooks @Scochrane26 You live in the 6th district, right? I‘m over in the 2nd, but I‘m sure she needs organizers everywhere in Kentucky. I think she‘s very impressive on paper and in speeches. I‘d love to help get out all those dems and independents who have lost hope in the face of Mitch. 👍🏻 5y

Megabooks @LauraJ Mitch is going down! I‘m determined to have our first democratic senator since Wendell Ford! 5y

Scochrane26 @Megabooks yes, I‘m in 6th but not in lex, so my county is usually red. My parents have been more republican in recent yrs, my sis & I more dem. I really hope to get out several of our Ky leaders, including our horrific governor. 5y

Megabooks @Scochrane26 🤬 Bevin 🙄 Can‘t stand that 🤬. He needs to GO! 5y

Cinfhen Enjoyed seeing your posts on the times when u could join in ♥️ 5y

Megabooks @Cinfhen 😁😘 5y

Sarong Party Girls: A Novel | Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan

pick

This must be a re-release, at least in the UK, as I received it as an ARC from #readersfirst.

The book is written in Singlish, which gives it a cutesy feel, in total juxtaposition to the seedy, grubby lives of Jazzy and her girlfriends, who are all getting a bit too old to snare an ang moh (western expat) husband!

I couldn‘t work out if I hated or felt sorry for Jazzy and felt the ending was a bit rushed, but still a good pick!

ReadUntilYourEyesAreRed

squirrelbrain Also fits #lilithjuly #thisonesforthegirls, even if Jazzy does treat her girl gang like dirt! 😁 @KarenUK @Cinfhen Thanks for the fun this month! 😘 5y

squirrelbrain Also #uglylocationchallenge @Clwojick - the fabulous view from my office window! 🤣 5y

TrishB Your view 😂😂 hope you‘re ok and free from flooding!! 5y

squirrelbrain @TrishB we‘re OK here, thanks for asking though! Had a lot of rain but the worst was about 30 miles north of us. It was bad in the NorthWest too though wasn‘t it? 5y

TrishB We‘re ok here - further out Cheshire was was bad. No such thing as climate change 🤷‍♀️ 5y
