New book. A day off. Good weather for outside reading. Rolo is happy as well. Although I could have done without the gigantic grasshopper flying directly at me when I came down the porch stairs.

Another day, another POS sounding off about things they don't understand. I don't care about HP; therefore, don't care about JK. I don't agree with her AT ALL about trans issues, though there could be room for empathy if she made any attempt to grow from the reaction. But this just proves she is fine being uninformed and delights in causing controversy. She has no skin in this game. She is just a miserable person and she can f*ck all the way off.
panI really wanted to love this. I do love the term hagitude and I am finally embracing my cronehood. But there was too much psychology and not enough mythology for me. And then the author states that there should be gathering places for women who were born as women, basically saying that it's OK to exclude trans folx in certain cases. So yeah, not great. We don't all need the exact same experience to relate.
Women have been choosing the bear since the dawn of time…
pickWe all have certain political issues that are our most important. For me, abortion rights are among them for the health and safety of all women. So, I keep up on what‘s going on. But I still didn‘t know some of the infuriating things Valenti reveals in this factual, straightforward clearinghouse of what‘s happened with abortion since the fall of Roe. This is a vital resource for all in the US.
pickThis was a quick read. Each chapter features various famous women from older time periods and current times, centering on the backlash they received for being too much of (insert endless options here____) and not enough of (insert more endless options here___). The double standards between us and men never changes. These days, it seems to have gotten even bigger. The author encourages us to fight back and be our most wild, untamed selves. ⬇️
pick#DynamicDs Day 6: A #Doctor can be a woman, too. Picturebook biography of the first female doctor in the US: Elizabeth Blackwell. Even after Blackwell graduated top of her class, there were angry male #doctor(s) who claimed that they hope she would be the last of her kind. That, of course, is moot and pointless in this day and age. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-bpe
