Feminist Pub 14: The Bluestocking, a place for feminist chat and feminists to chat

Welcome!

This is the 14th incarnation of the Pub and is meant as a place to drop by with random thoughts and meandering chats, on feminist or other related themes. Anything you want to mull over but not necessarily start a thread about. Alternatively, flop onto the chaise lounges with some Wine

We have a pub goat, a feminist cannon for firing at crazy sexists and a variety of drinks and snacks. And stools/bar counters at female friendly heights. And a crèche in the back somewhere

Will link the last pub in the next post!

I think we also need a journal of Desperately Disappointing Data. To report things that just don't work. So that future researchers don't waste their time re-doing pointless experiments (the kind that show no significant difference between sample and control at all).

Job hunting is soul destroying.

Sorry Annie. I have had a lot of those in the past. Hideously depressing. You will find something eventually but it's torture, I know.

Sorry about the job Annie. Flowers It's always crap when someone else is just a bit more awesome than you. I hope you're the most awesome for the next one.

Previous post about Annie's post about Petula's post.

But Sad about the job Annie. Flowers

PetulaGordino · 20/11/2014 20:06

Oh crap sorry annie Sad

UptoapointLordCopper · 20/11/2014 20:05

Annie I was going to say that but refrained. Grin

AnnieLobeseder · 20/11/2014 20:05

I posted this earlier but it got lost in an actual Serious Conversation About Feminist Issues so no-one responded. But I am sad and needy so I'm posting again while we're being chatty.

I am sulking because I have had yet another "we thought you were great in interview but the other candidate was slightly more awesome so we're offering the job to them" email. Gah! I need a job!

Writing aims and scope was my fucking JOB (until recently)

That sort of shit would not have happened whilst I was being paid for it

UptoapointLordCopper · 20/11/2014 20:05

Fibonacci No Sky here. But Mrs Bradley looks promising. Ladies' finishing school. Someone murdered. Grin

PetulaGordino · 20/11/2014 20:03

I am actually furious about that

AnnieLobeseder · 20/11/2014 20:03

Sure. Blame "the phone". Grin

PetulaGordino · 20/11/2014 20:03

X-post (while I put supper in the oven)

Shock

Its audience

FUCKING PHONE

AnnieLobeseder · 20/11/2014 20:01

Its audience.....

Sorry Petula! But it can't be Awesome with typos.

PetulaGordino · 20/11/2014 19:59

Golly Annie good luck!

Buffy I know not you, that's what I meant Grin

Shall we launch one oubliette?

Repeat a further six times

I do stuff like this Grin. Even worse, as a marketer, its my job to do this. Ties in with the perfectionist side of me, that these days, I only allow out in my professional life (I hope). Grin

UptoapointLordCopper · 20/11/2014 19:52

Good luck Annie!

Hey Dr Buffy, did I miss you getting viva'd then? Or were you keeping quiet about it?
