I feel shitty about how I deal with street harassment. Which is, generally, to smile and say apologetically, “I’m married!”

I’ve found this is the best way to ensure no one calls me a cunt in public, but, obviously, it’s also doing a disservice to the community. The implication being, of course,…

No one has ever asked me so bluntly about my pussy, but I do get regular marriage proposals while I’m running through Brooklyn. Once, a guy asked me to marry him, and I said, “I’m already married! Happily! With babies!” And he said, “That’s OK! I’m a great baby daddy!”

A brilliant series of minimalist typographic tributes to scientists and their discoveries. I especially like the Copernicus one :)

Well that sounds familiar.

We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didn’t always know this, and am happy I lived long enough to find it out.
