Book: "Juliet takes a breath", author: Gabby Rivera, publisher: PenguinTeen

I am a podcast lover but ones in a while I enjoy reading a book. This morning I finished "Juliet takes a breath" about Juliet's journey of self-discovery. But it also reads as a clear critique on white feminism. Very readable book - for young readers, too.

Like I even know people in Australia who would buy it for me… in Perth or Sidney or Melbourne. But I can’t ask them to go hundreds or thousands of miles to Canberra.

Today in Writing History September 10, 1960: Alison Bechdel, American author and illustrator was born. She is most famous for her “Dykes to Watch Out For,” comic strip. And for her “Bechdel Test,” originally intended as a joke in one of her comics, but which has since become a routine metric used by critics as an indicator for the active presence of women in a film.

I watched a documentary about Giulia and of course she is only able to play professional , because of her two brothers (!). They made her strong, aggressive, fast, and gave her the needed "elbows".

S2 finale. Rarely have I seen a second season wrap up so gracefully and aptly. It seems unclear whether it will get renewed and honestly this felt like an okay way to end it. Good for them for not leaving us with a cliffhanger that might never get resolved.

In their Early days Green Party's *were* anti-capitalist

They understood that one of the causes of the of our time is . The industrialization, the profit above all else mentality, the disregard of the costs to our environment.

Capitalism is the major obstacle to solving

I'm surprised that this is still an issue.

Women have been continuing to use their "maiden" names after marriage for a long time.

At least as long as when I was 1st (and the only time that I was) married back in 1973. Yike, I just relalized that that was 50 years ago!!!

Anyway, my ex & I had a discussion about this and it was her choice to take my last name, which was still the convention at that time, because our names were phonetically similar and she felt that it would cause unncessary confusion not to make the change.

I know that some women "reclaim" their maiden names after divorce but my ex still uses my surname even though we've been divorced for 25 years.

To each her own. 🤷‍♂️
