if they want to go back to the 1950s, we’re bringing the cuisine back to the 1950s too. you put me in the kitchen, I will spend 100% of my time in there finding how much horseradish and shrimp I can put in Jello before God personally comes down here to stop me.

For most of my life, I’ve thought there were WAY too many books and movies whose sole message was “WW2 was a really big deal & Nazis are unredeemable monsters.”

But now I’m thinking there REALLY weren’t enough.

The number of times I've carefully prepared a 5 minute presentation as requested for a specific meeting agenda compared to other presenters who just pull out their 30 minute slidedeck and wing it is mind numbing.
Ending on time is a feminist act.
This came up at a conference I was at on Friday, and I was curious if other think about this similarly.

I view keeping to my assigned time in presentations as an embodiment of my feminist values at work. There is a set amount of total time and going over takes time away from ~someone~ else.

Last night I finished Doppelganger by Naomi Klein. It pulls many topics together into a coherent story of the modern world. Reading in Dec 2024, the analysis of the convergence due to covid of fitness culture and the far right is giving me a lot to think about per the election.

#knit question, can anyone identify the stitch in the scarf worn by the lead character in Passenger on Britbox? I think it's a drop stitch. 🧶
