Period talk:
I realized that I can work with the diva cup and never have to buy anything else. I love it and also that it doesn’t produce trash.
Try it. Ok, only if you have the body devices it was made for.
I could not do the Diva Cup. It was way too hands-on for me. I liked tampons so I could like, plug it and forget it. That said, I had period dysphoria and got a gender-affirming hysterectomy, so take that as you will.
About the dispensers, Karen is absolutely right. My university had an initiative to make period products in those dispensers be free across campus. I think that should be normal in more places, and would make it so there was no need to have a tap to pay or to have bags of quarters. But it’s probably too idealistic to expect free period products will become available everywhere.
It was some learning involved at first, to be able to work with it. Nothing is for everyone, but I think I’m not so special or talented in application of stuff, its worth a longer try, because knowing that you just have to clean it and you are good for the next time is great. I have two of them for 8 years! 8 ! It’s insane.
This banter section had me saying yes, and then YES and Yaaaaaas! But 1st, it’s the artist now known as the Paravai-Kaaran. Karen was on point about that tampons machine, I’ve written that down for when next I get to chat with my council woman. Gonna get my district in the future.
Thank you Rod for bringing up the Diddy reporting headline. I thought that I was tripping seeing those headlines and wondering wtf then I’ll get my AP briefing, daily Yahoo News etc and it’s different. So I have only been sticking to legitimate reporting including TBGWT.
No time to get into the polls, but I voted yes. I’ll share one day how it was by folks I considered “friends” … The BEST PODCAST IN THE WORLD!!!
