Favorite Books:

My fav' new book this year was Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women's Anger by Rebecca Traister, though I'd give runner-up status to A Politically Incorrect Feminist: Creating A Movement With $#@!es, Lunatics, Dykes, Prodigies, Warriors, and Wonder Women by Phyllis Chesler.


Favorite Video Game: Celeste

This is an awesome platforming video game that serves as a metaphor for navigating depression and anxiety. It just meant a lot to me. It's available on all the current-gen consoles, and also on home computers.




Favorite TV Show: Aggressive Retsuko

(Or Aggretsuko in the original Japanese.) It's a comedy anime for children aged 20+ about surviving your work day from the people who brought you Hello Kitty.




Favorite Song: FFS by Deaf Wish

Sonic Youth life. Just saying.




Best Political Movement: South Korea's Beauty Resisters

I just love the radical womyn of South Korea! Here's some footage of one of their large-scale protests against spycam porn (or "molka" in Korean) and beauty culture conducted over the summer:




Now you know what the best stuff was. Disagree? Share your fav' stuff of 2018!

Mental health teaching in video game format. I kind of like it. When it comes to video games there is a certain something to be said for " if you can't beat em join em"
