On the bright side, my special guest spot on Women at Warp about the TNG episode "the outcast" is still up!
From subtle designs that emphasize natural beauty to miniature sculptures of sushi and omelets, Japanese nail art is governed by only one rule: choose what you love. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2026/02/07/style-design/nail-art-tokyo-salons-feminism/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #life #styledesign #japanesefashion #nails #salons #feminism
This is a long shot but does anybody know anybody who worked on the Calgary feminist radio show "Yeah, what she said?" that used to air on 90.9FM CJSW?
I was interviewed on it for Escher Girls in 2014 (though the episode wasn't posted online as a podcast until 2015) but the site no longer exists except on the internet Archive and the mp3s weren't backed up afaict.

Does anybody know anybody who used to run the show that might have the episode backed up? Or if any of my fans actually backed it up when it was live. (I might have, I have to check but I don't think I did ): )
Feel free to boost on other platforms.

Judith Butler: “We are witnessing the restoration of patriarchy, nationalism, racism and capitalist individualism. It is the nostalgic fury of right-wing movements that want to return to an idealised past, one that perhaps never truly existed, and to re-establish hierarchical orders."

This may be finished.
The Patriarchy is a death cult, denying all truth and oppressing life to have power over others. It is the foundational supremacy and cause of human suffering. The Patriarchy is a deadbeat dad.
Judge them by their fruits.

Everyone is absorbing This Moment in their own way.
[Note: I think, since Jan 22, 2025, we've had at least 300 unprecedented moments]
A colleague, someone I would absolutely call a 2nd Wave feminist, had almost an a ha moment. She said, The women's movement is just failing to come together to meet this Moment!
You know that thing that Black women do when we curl in our lips and bite them as if to seal our mouths shut to keep our words from flying out and hitting someone in the face?
That's what I did.

Today in Labor History January 26. 1682: Benjamin Lay was born in England. Lay emigrated to the Provine of Pennsylvania, in British North America, where he became a radical Quaker activist against slavery, and for the rights of women and animals. He was a prolific writer on abolition and his “All Slave-Keepers that Keep the Innocent in Bondage” was one of the first abolitionist works published in the 13 Colonies. In an act of protest, he once stood outside a Quaker meeting in the middle of winter, barefoot, and without any coat. When passersby expressed concern for his health, he asked why they were not concerned for the health of the slaves, who were forced to work in the snow dressed as he was. He also once kidnapped the child of slaveholders temporarily to demonstrate to them how it felt when one’s relatives were stolen and sold. In another act of protest, this time in front of his Quaker brethren, he quoted the Bible saying that all men should be equal under God, and then plunged a sword into a Bible containing a bladder of blood-red pokeberry juice, which spattered over those nearby. He refused to consume any products made from slave labor. He was a vegetarian. He was roughly four feet tall, with a hunchback. He referred to himself as “Little Benjamin.” During the 2012 Occupy Movement, the Occupy encampment in Jenkintown, PA, where Lay was buried, activists renamed the town square as “Benjamin Lay Plaza.”
