saw The Beaches w/ FIGHTMASTER in Royal Oak on Thursday and it was such a fun time. the catharsis of the whole place singing "Blame Brett" was so needed. and always a joy to go to a concert with my sis. The Beaches had just been named Billboard Canada's Women of the Year.

In a recent piece, Kelsey Dodson shares what it's like to menstruate in prison. One woman says she was forced to bleed through her underwear, her pants, and finally her white blanket during an hour-long count. This piece was co-published with @theguardian.com. Please give it a read.
