Show Notes

For our big 2-0, our teeth and claws are ready to shred as we bring you a story of women and the monsters who reside in them. Talking points: this comic left us Straight Up Messed Up; the nature and impact of time and betrayal; the old gods and the new wars; Plath's figs; the importance of seeing the Other in fiction; the job prospects of cats; why can't the world just be art deco; Kippa is the cutest moral compass; and, hey, we say this a lot but PLEASE read this comic immediately. Shout-outs this episode: @lithappenspods and @loadedlitpod
