This would make a great political thriller/horror which I would never, ever watch

not to defend the robber barons but Andrew Carnegie, the richest man of his era, gave away 90 percent of his wealth and funded the building of 2,811 libraries, and I’m afraid the current crop of oligarchs isn’t sending their best.

I’m seeing lots of reviews of ‘With Love, Meghan’ written by women. But what do the men think? Has anyone even asked??? In this week’s ep of FeMANism Podcast, two cis male allies* critique Meghan Markle’s divisive new show: rb.gy/3opdde *Played by me and samantha martin

There was a point last summer, ahead of the US election, when my boyfriend staged a one-person intervention about my out-of-control Twitter use. Now, I forget to check it, and when I do, I end up remembering not to check it for a long time again.

If Elon has single-handedly cured me of my twitter addiction, maybe he can help himself with his own Ketamine problem
