"Call it middle age, call it middle rage."

I'm already in "high rage" and I'm not 40 yet

“Middle rage” 👌🏻. I cannot believe how they did not read the room before approaching you for a freebie. WTAF?!

I’m currently reading Fix the System, Not the Women by Laura Bates - I’d recommend it if you’ve not read it yet.

I bloody LOVE this Poorna and can so relate. Stop asking women to work for free FFS.

The amount of unpaid work I have done and continue to do is actually insane. It makes me wonder if I'm insane frankly. Still writing a book proposal in the hopes that I'll get somewhat paid for a book, but I won't report it and do the research without selling it. This is my line in the sand but also maybe insane? 😭

Damn right.

We have more than earned it.

Mediocre men seem to get opportunities handed to them on a plate, while utterly brilliant women have to fight tooth and nail for every little thing. Still.

In fact, less than mediocre men become leaders of whole countries. It is INSANITY.

I'm well into middle rage with you!

Such a great comparison. The alien thing. Oath. Why aren’t we past this? It’s completely wild. And yeah, the Epstein files has broken my brain too. I can’t even get there, think of it, it’s just too much.
