Also available on Apple , Spotify,  Google and all major podcasts apps.

CN: This episode contains swearing

Elle and her guest Mer Yayanos share a deep, abiding appreciation for their therapists, slow moments with partners, creative collaborations, and butts. Most of this episode is dedicated to the first bits – these two queerdo artists dive into their particular feminisms, sharing parts of their burnout and healing journeys, and why they won’t be breaking any glass ceilings. Also butts are funny, even (and especially) when you’re talking about your trauma.

Moog-sponsored thereminist. Proud member of the So Many Of Us collective.

Incontinent harpy. Transformative justice noob. Exuberant hired-gun for the experimental black metal band, Feminazgul. Antifascist. Anti-racist. Fledgling abolitionist. Eternal student.
