Rumor going around that Madonna is dead. Still alive. Completely irrelevant attention whore status isn’t death but in a merciful world, it would be.

Kamala Harris Struck the Almost Impossible Balance Between Masculinity and Femininity

But in 2020, Kamala Harris succeeded where Clinton did not. Potential voters view Harris as masculine, 74 on a 100-point scale, a pattern similar to the ideal president and similar to earlier ratings for Clinton. Unlike Clinton, however, Harris was seen as highly feminine (66 on a 100-point scale). Her masculinity and femininity were more balanced. Not surprisingly, the people we surveyed rated Harris more favorably than they rated Clinton.

Two qualifications are in order. The first: Clinton ran for president, while Harris ran for vice president. That probably affected how favorably each woman was viewed. When Harris was a presidential candidate, she was not viewed favorably, even though she displayed the same “masculine” and “feminine” characteristics all along. The shift in her favorability once she became a vice presidential candidate may have been partially due to her now subordinate position, a position women “should” occupy.

Scotland becomes 1st country to make free period products the law

Periods are a biological predisposition of being born a female, and the average female will spend more than 2,500 days, or roughly 7 years, of her life menstruating, but many women and girls around the world cannot afford period products. On Tuesday, Scotland became the first country to legislatively combat this issue by making menstrual products free in public facilities nationwide.

The Scottish Parliament confirmed in a tweet on Tuesday that the bill had passed unanimously. According to the parliament’s website, the law requires the Scottish Government to set up a universal system so that anyone in need of period products can get them for free. Schools, colleges and universities will also be required to make free menstrual products available in restrooms. Local authorities and education providers will be responsible for ensuring free products are made available under the law.

Goddamnit, I hate everything.

 


 

The bleakest lyrics over an upbeat pop tune. Just fabulous.

The way things go
You get so low
Struggle to find your skin
Hey ho, look out below
Your prayers will never be answered again

Phones still ring
And singers sing
Speakers are speaking in code
What now? Well, anyhow
Our prayers will never be answered again

You know it’s all beginning
(It’s all beginning)
To feel like it’s ending
(Feels like it’s ending)
No love’s as random
As God’s love
I can’t stand it
I can’t stand it

The way things get
You get so high
Funny how we make new friends
Oh hey ho, I gotta go
My prayers will never be answered again

You know it’s all beginning
(it’s all beginning)
To feel like it’s ending
(Feels like it’s ending)
No love’s as random
As God’s love
I can’t stand it
I can’t stand it
