Rebel Grrrl Italiana

This week’s 5 favorite things!
1. Kathleen Hanna – The Collapse Board Interview

This interview is lovely (I’m biased, because I love anything KH does, but I think you’ll love this, too). Kathleen talks about how she got into music, living in NYC with her husband Adam, and her new band: The Julie Ruin! One choice excerpt:

It doesn’t matter what you do, if you’re not a straight white male you’re going to get more harshly criticized than other people so you might as well just do whatever the fuck you want.

 

2. Fierce Medicine: Breakthrough Practices to Heal the Body and Ignite the Spirit – Ana T. Forrest

I’m only half way through this book, but it’s amazing. It’s gotten me really into Forrest Yoga to where I’m throwing around the idea of, at some point, doing Forrest Yoga teacher training. Ana Forrest’s story is extremely moving, interesting, and inspiring.

3. This Oscar Wilde quote:

Every woman is a rebel.

4. Downton Abbey, Season 2 Finale!

Because my friend Kelly is awesome (and because she bought seasons 1 and 2 on DVD), I got to watch the season 2 finale before it aired on U.S. tv! It.is.amazing. Best season finale ever!!!

5. “The Golden Girls” valentines!

I came across this on tumblr, and I laughed for a long time. Enjoy!
