Psyched to see a parent talk about doing the reading! I’ve learned so much about disability rights because of my kids. Excited to see more of these columns. ❤️

The multiple pop culture
“critics”—all women so far???—calling Keaton a feminist icon, talking about Annie Hall, sometimes even naming the director, then dropping that particular thread? Really shocking to me!

I’m sorry, but to mention Annie Hall and not contextualize Woody Allen (or her long-standing defense of him) is mind boggling to me.

How it started: I tried to thread a sewing machine for 45 minutes today. I don’t think I was successful.

Post you from a different era. (2005)

It’s insane that she’s 35, I feel like the cultural perception of her is that she’s a child who needs to be protected from all critique.

A true thing about me is that I wrote my first poyim as a child in Texas and was so embarrassed about how I said the word that I didn’t say it for YEARS until I started my BFA program and would quietly say “poem” to myself over and over in my room.
