We start out with a long ranting sesh as we decompress and try to digest the horrifying events of the weekend in Charlottesville. Then we switch over to some lighter faire and discuss fashion in the Trump years. We talk about how the Trump women manage to balance without fear in their Louboutins. We also discuss stilettos more broadly and possible reasons they are so appealing aesthetically and culturally as well as evolutionarily (we think the evo psych thing is bs, but we discuss it). We close out by touching on Ayesha Siddiqi's Bush Era Redux theory and round that out with a Jacobin article on the rise of "fuck you fashion" under the new administration.
