Just finished reading Camille Perri’s The Assistants — highly recommended! It’s Nine to Five updated and with a great moral element; better than any nonfiction book about the income inequity between the top 1% and the rest of us … With attitude, to boot! “Robert had tie-clips that cost as much as those [student loan] …

Misogyny: a clear case of projection
Misogyny is a simple and clear case of psychological projection, a defence mechanism whereby one denies the existence of a quality in oneself and instead attributes it to the other—’it’s not me, it’s you’.

It’s hunting season again — moose for a week, then deer for two weeks — and I have yet to hear an acceptable justification.

Rape: a men’s issue
Men are the ones who rape, so why is rape a women’s issue? Because men see nothing wrong with rape.
Men: the sooner you recognize this, the sooner you’ll see rape as a men’s issue.
