That is indeed a knife, Mate. It’s the size of the three snakes in a trenchcoat’s entire torso.
ETA: Oh, and the Egyptians’ copper knives were sharp enough to shave with!

The main reason I gave up handwriting is notes typed and saved in files are much easier to find (or search for keywords) than pieces of paper.

I always forget that I’m subscribed to this, and then it shows up in my inbox and it’s always a fucking delight…
No. 7 tho…
- You know, I liked Barbie . I saw it a few times, but the first time was the most valuable to me: I went with my mom, my sister-in-law, and my niece. We span four generations; my niece is biracial and my mom’s immigration story is well-trod territory in my writing, in the little stories I tell myself about my family. I know liking Barbie is corny and simple and reductive. I know it’s a billion-dollar movie about a doll. I realize: this is just capitalism speaking back to me in a pink mini-dress that I still cannot fit in. But it was also a lone cultural product that spoke to all four of us; it offered a kind of language that we could all understand. My mom hadn’t seen something that spoke so directly to her grief, tied to her womanhood, linked to her motherhood. She’s been angry for decades without precise but simple words to make sense of it. My 13-year-old niece finally had language for her rage ; she went to school the next day and absolutely laid out her two male best friends for their passive involvement in the patriarchy. Not a lot of cultural products can do that. Not a lot of movies can do that. No one’s arguing that Barbie is Sontag here, but can’t it be enough that a broad cultural product began to sow some seeds of rebellion? In 20 years, we’ll look at Barbie differently, the way we’re fond of Clueless or But I’m A Cheerleader ; some cultural entities need years to bake, decades to form its argument fully or to find its audience as adults again. But for now, we’re stuck in the present, watching Hillary “I Forgot About Wisconsin” Rodham Clinton wade into the Barbie /Oscar discourse, comforting Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie for not being nominated for Best Director and Best Lead Actress, respectively. Sure, their movie got many other nominations, and they’ve been been nominated for Oscars before for other projects, and their POC-colleague was actually nominated but she’s had to spend the press cycle talking about how these two white women were robbed, and they also made enough money to buy Yo-Yo Barbie, which I recall being very expensive. I don’t know. I guess I thought since everyone was arguing so fucking much about this movie about a doll , they internalized at least a fraction of its message. Alas. So instead of just enjoying this film, loving it for what it gave to the girls in my family, I must join the chorus of millions of people around the world who were ready to defend it against men who belittled it as girl talk, and scream: Oh, fuck off .

The long awaited prequel/sequel to one of the highest grossing independent films of all time, “Easy Rider” defined the thoughts and values of a generation. EASY RIDER: THE RIDE BACK shows through flashbacks how these much loved characters became the classic icons of a generation.
Millions of fans around the world know the throb of the Captain America Harley Davidson, the roar of that great 60s music, the thrill of the open road. Now a whole new generation can experience the same sense of freedom through these modern day road rebels in EASY RIDER: THE RIDE BACK.
