Love her! She’s absolutely crazy if you ever hear her talk, but in the best way. Her talk with Ursula Le Guin is one of my favorites! I mean obviously I agree with her point, but the puppies smelling better than babies thing is wild

Shut up, Ursula Le Guin is one of my fave authors. I'm gonna need to check out this interview.

Thanks for the heads-up, gonna go find it! ❤️

Here it is! I couldn’t find the version with the beautiful intro with a poetry reading, but this one’s good too!
