There’s now an open source Name Him site for women to post their attackers. I support this. I keep thinking about this dad, driving me home after babysitting his daughter. This would be in Roxbury CT about 1985. Dark car. He’s talking to me, then he casually reaches over and starts rubbing my neck, then my leg, in a slow, sensual way. I didn’t even know what to do or say. I was trapped in the car. Roxbury, if you don’t know, is all woods and fiel…

I watched Gunpowder Milkshake on Netflix yesterday and loved it! It's a woman-forward noir-esque action movie from 2021 with awesome fighting scenes. It's about an organized crime syndicate led by Nathan (Paul Giamatti) called The Firm who employs a whole army of assassins to carry out missions, including hit-woman Sam (Karen Gillan) who was brought up in the lifestyle from the age of 12. After one mission goes sideways, Sam finds hersel…
This is throwing back to Mother's Day 2012, to the days when I used to occasionally do a video accompaniment to my blog entries, which I dubbed BLOGCASTS . This was in honor of my mom. I figure it's perfect for Women's History Month. It's called "What am I, an
a**hole?" and other Mom'isms." It's about some expressions that my mom,
all of seventeen when she had me, used to say. She is quite eloquent, and qu…
"But you used to write about politics..." Yeah. At one time I did, yeah. Here in Blogger, back to 2012. You can find all those passionate, researched entries by searching on "politics" in the search field. In my Diaryland blog ,
I have essays from the 2000, 2004 and 2008 elections--that is to say,
from the Hanging Chad to the Provisional Ballot to (sweet relief) YES WE
CAN! I don't have any entries from 2020 to July 2025 …
You guys, Jane Goodall died. "It doesn't take much to be considered a difficult woman. That's why there are so many of us."
I'll be working the door. --------------- FROM THE PRESS RELEASE:

Today I talked with Sharon for nearly three hours. "AUNTIE Sharon" is what she'll say to that sentence. Yes, Aunt Sharon, in that she is one of Louie's little sisters (there's a load of other aunts). But Lou is my mother's husband, not my "bio dad" nor my "on paper" father at all, and regarding that fact, the Lombardi family (including those other five aunts) never let me forget it. Not for a day. Ex…
I'm among those who did not tune in to the Kavanaugh hearing today, because I've had enough. Of everything. And all these old white men. But I see from all of your posts and tweets that the "honorable" (that's laughable) judge had himself a little mantrum today, is that right? This reporting has been countered by a great deal of "...and they say women are too emotional" memes and wisecracks. It is on this point th…
