On The Radio, Oh Oh

From the "pissing me off" files: Drug Tests for Unemployment Checks? Just Cheap Political Theater: "As the money crunch punishes states coffers, legislators are callously pushing drug testing for welfare and unemployment recipients."

Justice O'Connor, don't be afraid of the F word!

Left: source.

And from the UK, more on the feminism front: Piercing the White Silence: "Is feminism reaching women who are living in poverty? Women who have come over to this country on a marriage visa and can’t speak any English? Is feminism reaching young teenage mums? Is feminism reaching women who didn’t attend university? Is feminism reaching women who choose not to work, regardless of whether or not they have children? Is feminism reaching women who do not have access to the internet? Is feminism reaching mums? Is feminism reaching women of colour? Really?"

Star Trek Cruise of the Mexican Riviera? I'm listening....

Today's Pep Talk from a Best Friend (love them!): "Pep Talk: I’d like to take a moment to applaud you and how resilient you’ve proven yourself to be. Did you ever imagine you’d be able to survive all the things you have? You’ve come out of trying situations stronger and sharper than before. If times are tough now, you’re tougher. Underestimaters, be warned: you have no idea who you’re dealing with. Today remind yourself: I’m back and better than ever."
