I had no idea this episode didn’t premiere on Monday night! TW: This episode contains discussions of child sexual abuse. I highly recommend "Hot Girls Wanted," and "After Porn Ends" as the reading this week.

I put my hands up on my hips! When I hear that song, I think about a fat cat who dances on TikTok wearing sunglasses. I wish I could do that with Matthew, but he got so mad at me. It started a whole 2 hour beef, it got out of control. Anyways, I've been told I talk about my cat too much. Which ... this is my podcast, and if I want to talk about my child (who lives with me and who I gave birth to) that is my right. But instead of talking about it I have decided to type out this paragraph. Okay. You're wondering - what are we reading this week. Honestly, I was hoping that in typing this out I would come up with an article. It turns out you can't do two things at once. F**k. Omg are you still at the end of this?!
