The lady on the phone asked why I'd chosen my email address - I told her it was part of a Kathleen Hanna lyric. We had a little chat about feminist punk and she was really interested. Said she was gonna check out the riot grrrl movement.
I wasn't expecting that when the bank phoned 😂

I’m teaching myself how to crochet. Haven’t done it since I was a little kid. Anyway, it reminded me of this song from #KathleenHanna’s 1998 4-track solo project Julie Ruin—right before LeTigre came out.

“Crochet—Julie Ruin”

Waiting for MOTD so watching The Punk Singer. Kathleen Hanna is a proper punk legend.
