So here's a problem I have with books about older female protagonists. Somehow, in these books, thirty five is when you start getting grey hair and changing metabolism? I must have missed that memo, because I didn't start showing grey until mid forties. I'm 53 now and still not entirely grey. It feels a little insulting. One book even proposed a woman in perimenopause in her 30s. Which, okay, sure it happens, but I think that's a bit of an outlier...
I dunno. Maybe I'm just prickly at 53. Does anyone else have opinions on this?

The environmental movement must also be a labor movement.
The labor movement must also be an environmental movement.
There is no other way to stop the dual exploitation of workers and the planet that now threatens the survival of society itself.
The environmental movement is just a negative application of the labor movements principle that workers ought to get the fruits of their labor. Nature isn’t the fruits of anyone’s labor. #HenryGeorge had the right idea.

The bridge in this picture is officially called the "RFK Bridge". Anyone from this area calls it the "Triborough Bridge" (if you're heading over it from Queens, you can decide to go to either Manhattan or the Bronx, hence three boroughs)

I hope we Canadians can also do that too when the time comes for us to fight back.
