Spoke this week about makeup shaming, tear gas, Power Brows, the YPJ, WWII female Russian snipers, Lady Death, dealing with bangs, male dominated spaces, sexism, being bubbly, taking space, inopportune periods, shopping, fighting dirty, boys, gold hoop earrings, work out routines, gym memberships, glitter bombing, silly string, and how All Cats Are Beautiful.
Notes:
-If anyone has the video of Richard Spencer getting glitter bombed, please send it my way
-I can't find a reference on the origins of ACAB, but it looks like it goes back much further than the 80's
