As I said in my last post, Day 11 did not happen for me. That day was a swirl of sleep-deprived, over-caffeinated unawareness of all things. I got up, I went to work, I worked hard, I came home, I went to sleep.
I feel better now.
Since I don't have anything interesting for you to read from Day 11, I want to offer you a post I just read on BlogHer that I found amazing. I don't often think about "rape culture," I recall hearing about the issues with a Daniel Tosh joke, but I think I've become numb to a lot of it because it really is always out there and so many people do find it acceptable. This post is so smart and well-written - the blogger who wrote it is so self-aware and even found a fabulous example of how the subject can be dealt with in comedy in a brilliant way. I can't just NOT share it with you: Rape Jokes and The Oatmeal from The Belle Jar.
