I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck, Theo!

Someone wrote in to the Good Stuff to complain about the girl who cooks, because what about all the girls who do great things in STEM, etc. Dude! I feel like I have those girls all the time, too! Crikey.

That person is unclear on the concept of Good Stuff.

Because books.

We do! Plus, that girl is raising money for charity, and she's like eleven or something!

People. Don't be gross.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

the girl who cooks

Or the girl who's an entrepreneur and donates money to charity. Writing in to complain about "the girl who cooks" is reductive, stupid person.

Clearly, creating anything edible while female is Setting The Movement Back.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm all conflicted now. I need to go create something edible in order to create more STEM. WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENT?


Amy - Jun 09, 2014 4:23:36 pm PDT #29526 of 30000
Because books.

Anyway, COOKING IS SCIENCE! Just ask Alton Brown.

I have wine. It's also very hot. We'll see what the result of *this* experiment is.

Fortunately, it is too hot for me to create anything edible right now. My status as a feminist is saved!

I just said to my computer "Oh, honey, it is NOT like Naboo out there"
