I don't think most people fully appreciate how free it truly is to roam. not far. the close stuff. the nearby buildings. you can actually just go most places, reasonability permitting. there are places you do not go because you do not need to, but you can go there. most buildings are designed to allow people inside of them, you can look around any store, all the sections, and then you may leave

go as high as you can get in every building that permits, and then go back down. some elevators won't let you do that, but many will. if they ask why you are there, say it is for an interview, wander around a bit, enter the washroom, and if they get suspicious, ask where you are, then apologise. this will only work so many times. if pressed too hard, say you are here for an interview with someone, use your last name for them, and when they say nobody works there with that name, slap your head and leave quickly. if they try to kill you, you've entered into the martial portion of your journey, and I can offer you no guidance

if someone does work there with that name, you need to try playing the long lost heir card and hope it works. it might be your building soon, and then you can go up and down it much as you please.

As someone in and around their 30’s it has been INSANE to see feminism in popular media descend through

  1. Women can wear pants and play sports and that’s equality. Women don’t just belong inside the house. This woman has a career
  2. This woman can be a mechanic just like a man could. She’s probably still a lesbian, though, which is basically the closest to a man a woman can *be*, and explains everything. But she’s still a person!
  3. If a woman superhero CHOOSES to wear stilettos to fight crime, that’s girl power! This comic character written and designed by men wears a bikini and has a waist size of 12 inches because it makes her FEEL POWERFUL! Girls don’t HAVE to dress boyish to be strong! She can make you a sandwich AND be a feminist! Girl power!
  4. What, are you saying women HAVE to do boy things to be taken seriously? Who are you to tell a woman what to do? Maybe some women NEED to get their hair and nails done twice a month to feel powerful! Maybe a lot of women WANT to be stay-at-home moms!
  5. What I don’t think you understand is that women have an inherent feminine spirituality which guides them towards maternal and nurturing paths. Women need to honour their divine female aura to keep their. Their fuckin. Their chakras together or some shit. You should put quartz up your hooha and huff wheatgrass. Leaving manual labour and science and technology to men is natural and good for you spiritually
  6. Uh she can’t do that, that’s a blue job, she’s a pink job girly. Food? Yeah, she’s having #girl dinner, which is a handful of almonds. Time for our 15 step skincare routine, which is empowering. Hashtag #girlboss. Ew no, touching dirt? She’s just a girl. You can’t expect a girl to do that. Haha #girl logic

Like obviously demonizing and belittling stereotypically feminine interests and occupations isn’t the answer and that’s not what I MEAN, I just see the argument going from

  1. Why would you want to wear pants? Boy stuff is icky anyways
  2. Women have the same potential as men
  3. Women can do anything men can!
  4. Women shouldn’t be TOO MUCH like men, though.
  5. In fact, maybe women choosing to stick to historically female roles is BETTER.
  6. Actually, maybe women NEED to stick to feminine things.
  7. Woman actually have completely different needs and impulses than men.
  8. Is staying at home and raising babies the REAL empowerment?
  9. Women need to make sandwiches to survive actually
  10. Women are weak and incapable of complex thought and that’s *better* than being a man
  11. Why would you want to wear pants? Boy stuff is icky anyways

I told my coworker Astrid that I was struggling to start working on my comic because setting up the laptop is somehow a very cumbersome mental task despite being very quick and easy.

She said, “Oh, how do you set it up?”

I narrowed my eyes at what was clearly a trick for my own good but it genuinely made setting up easier to think I was doing it for her benefit rather than my own.

Later that day she told me she needed to put up a window cling but didn’t want to.

I said, “Oh, how do they go up?”

She narrowed her eyes at what was clearly a trick but I could still see her pride in me using her gambit against her so quickly.
