I remember being obsessed with Disney movies in the 80s. I was exactly at the right age to enjoy the rise of Disney’s second Golden Era of animation. When The Little Mermaid came out in 1989 I insisted that my poor mother take me to see it again and again…

Bruce Willis and Demi Moore are Destigmatizing Dementia.

How Anti-Feminism Failed the Botkin Sisters.

I recently wrote an article about how anti-feminism has failed young Christian conservative women.

I’ve Listened to “The Witch Trials of J.K. Rowling” and I’m Kind of Upset

TW: Descriptions of domestic abuse, anti-LGBTQ slurs, and the sense of female helplessness in the face of male aggression. I’ve listened to the first two episodes of “The Witch Trials of J. K. Rowling.” I would have binged the whole thing but only two episodes are currently available. “The Witch…
