Everyone wants to save the Muslim woman. Some want to put the hijab on me and save me; some want to take hijab off me and save me; some want to bomb us and save me. Just give me a break man! I can save myself! I don’t need Western imperialism to save me or Western feminism riding on the coattails of Western imperialism to save me. I can save myself.

Goddamnit, this man’s a genius! I’m not going to try to sum this up so robots and perusers can figure out if they want to watch this. You do want to watch this, you just don’t know it yet.

just come home and think I’ve been fishing all day or something?”

Highlights Aha:
Celebrating Great ChildhoodsI became a parent rather suddenly. After years of unsuccessful attempts at starting a family, an adoptable baby practically fell from heaven into our laps. (It’s a long, happy story for another blog post!) He was exquisite, and I was over the moon. And overwhelmed.
I LAUNCHED THIS TODAY! WOOOOO!

Prison Tat Guns by Holly Pitre
I can personally attest that there’s nothing in life that matches the experience of receiving your first prison tat… mine’s of the Virgin Mary riding a Liger! Holly’s series of penitentiary-made tattoo needles are made with step-by-step instructions from her incarcerated brother utilizing such tools as toothbrushes, ballpoint pens, cassette player parts, and AA batteries to give it motion and etch forever into your flesh your favorite Bible Passage in Latin.
