Books
Squirrel Girl by Ryan North, Erica Henderson, and Rico Renzi
I’m up to volume 5. Everything about Squirrel Girl is perfect. KICK BUTTS EAT NUTS.
The Kingdom of Gods by NK Jemisin

Episode 70: The Procedure by Criminal

266- Repackaging the Pill by 99% Invisible
I need Roman Mars to give me the design history of everything remotely feminist.

KESHA IS BACK.

The Long Winters
I’ve been listening to these guys on repeat, too. They have a sad song about astronauts.
