Asymmetrical Re-worlding, Part 5: Let’s Get Metaphysical! | by Therese Doherty
We don’t need this notion of postfeminism because we don’t need to get beyond feminism but right down into the belly of it, right into the beating heart, the ground of female being that is our birthright to embrace.

As a beekeeper, I've been thinking a lot about the terrifying collective power of honeybees. When you are in the colony and you piss off 40k or 100k divas who will move AS ONE against you...one cannot help but think of how we could look to the bee for wisdom on collective resistance.

This Gorgon is excited to visit @MatriarchyTimes sever about #monsters this morning. Del Toro's #Frankenstein got women asking "why no stories about female monsters men fall in love with?" We'll talk plot arcs, motifs, archetypes, how monsters work in our own imaginations.

This is especially key because we know that the January 6th seditionists, like all Trumpists are prone to crimes like sexually abusing children, and spousal abuse. They are, of course, setting the stage for allowing January 6th seditionists to be able to legally sexually assault children.
This is an important new line being crossed. Trump isn't just pardoning the act of attempting to overthrow the government on January 6: he's pardoning *those people* for committing crimes generally. He may be creating a group of (federally) legally untouchable people.

Oh. Read every word of this.
When people hear about such events, they are often quick to name this as "abuse." But back in the olden times, we had no words for such things, and you cannot protect yourself from something you cannot name.
