This week’s clips come from a vintage 50’s home-ec film for gals. Just for gals, obviously. What will YOU do when you get married and it turns out you don’t know how to cook? Will Tim ever be surprised!
I’m back from hospital for the second time, this time, hopefully, for good. But probably not. This week, Joy Behar interviews John Waters, and I rant.

It’s not Mothers’ Day, but with all the daffodils and crocuses coming up, it just might be time to drag out a Mother’s Day sermon. After all, it’s Women’s History Month, and this is, historically, what it’s like to be a woman listening to this kind of sermon every year on Mothers’ Day. Yeah, you get to hear about what an evil slut you are. I suddenly realize that it’s pretty damned easy to find something to listen to to be reminded how big of an evil slut you are, and I really didn’t need to help. But sometimes, just sometimes, we privileged few who do not have to live in that kind of environment (where you have to listen to males between the ages of 14 and 30 who were not raised by two moms), you don’t realize what kind of propaganda gets pumped into the souls of people with evil, slutty vaginas and vulvae and pudenda and that sort of thing. Makes us watch terrible television and read awful magazines, apparently. That’s beside the point. If I wanted to Destroy America, I’d….wait a minute. I DO want to Destroy America! The answer, my sistahs, is to consume, consume, consume False Slack. If only I’d have known it was so easy…

Lately, I’ve been interacting more with people of the ages I shouldn’t be voluntarily interacting with—in my leisure time. Oh, I don’t mean you, dear friends, my dear young friends—you know who you are—who are so far superior to HUMAN young people that the thought of them makes you yawn and retch simultaneously—and that’s a monumental task. No, I’m talking about that wretched Facebouf. You know the one—you might have found my podcast here, right now! Interacting on Facebouf is like posting on Christian message boards. Christians think the Internet is in America, and foreigners should get out. 12 year-old boyZ and pregnant, 13 year-old GirZ who post on facebouf think that we’re all in their territory, the one with RingpopZ and WebCritterZ and homemade, misspelled tattooZ. And these young peepZ, these future leaderZ of the UniverZe are the most sexist, misogynistic little squeebZ in the universe. And so I complain about attitudes in past advertising, because it all seems so similar. Luckily, none of my facebouf "frenZ" tell me I should be in the kitchen, making them a sandwich. I don’t understand why their dadZ don’t make them sandwiches, when they’re obviously hungry and I don’t get it because I am not Phresh Phly PantZ on the groun’.
