The reason why most women my age couldn't care less if Bill Clinton goes down with the ship is that we were teens & young women when the Anita Hill and Monica Lewinsky scandals happened. It's rotten to the core. All the way down. Your "lost" era is not ours.

@karaswisher.bsky.social really enjoyable Uncanny Valley interview. I enjoy your honesty and recognition of your own abilities combined with your willingness to revisit opinions when you need to. I too have hope for the young people, may they never become us. @katie-drummond.bsky.social
