    Dear Santa:

    Please bring me a “Smash the Patriarchy” cute kitten shirt for Christmas.

    If you comply, I will consider refraining from representing the elves in their class action suit against you. (But I am still referring them to the ACLU.)

    Yours,
    HWA Vengeance, Esq.

    Oops, so sorry. Wrong Festivus.

    Dear Santa:
    Please bring me Twisty for christmas. Or… at least a book by her.
    Or a taco that she has prepared.
    Sincerely,
    Roozdawg

    Twisty, do you read the comic xkcd.com? You might like this one/.

    That is one cool logo.

    That reminds me — I bought a gift certificate to [Local Taco Joint] for my darling, and now I have to remember where I put it. Thanks, roozen!

    Maybe I should go get tacos for lunch. I’ve already got kittens.

    Octopod, that rocked. Thanks for sharing!

    Also: Kitten-With-A-Pickaxe would be an awesome name for a punk band. Just saying.

    Kittens for lunch?! Wow, even I’m not that bitter.

    Oh.

    Nev-er mind.

    Kitten tacos, though. Hmm.

    Oh no it wouldn’t Cannibal-femme. You *know* how they be dressed.

    Hello! I’m a former lurker, but I’m ready to join in the blaming. :-)

    cocoschomco’s post reminded me of a line that I almost just wrote in a term paper, but thought better of:

    “Reading Butler and Gates and rereading Marx and Foucault has fanned the flames of my nausea at the white patriarchy.”

    I burn with nausea!

    Pony: point granted. I admit I was thinking about blood-spattered roomy fauxfurry suits with nifty hidden weaponry pockets, but that’s because I spend too much time wallowing in my own brain.

    P.S.: I haven’t mentioned how much I appreciate the way you share your rage, but I truly do.

    I love the kitten, but I think she’s using the wrong tool–should not she be weilding a sledgehammer instead of a pickaxe? The pickaxe certainly has more a connotation of finesse in smashery. Perhaps she’s prising the patriarchy apart stone by stone. I suppose “Prise the Patriarchy!” is not such a good slogan.

    Also, kittens don’t have thumbs.

    Ha! Perhaps there’s a need for thumbless work-gloves for tool-weilding kittens . . .
