“The toilet that can be heard flushing in the background of the song “Fix You,” by Coldplay. An urn that Justin Bieber has hinted he might use for his ashes, after he dies and is cremated. A mega-urn that Justin Bieber’s fans have said they will use for their ashes, after Justin dies and is cremated, and they then cry themselves to death.”
“Women are described in animal terms as pets, cows, sows, foxes, chicks, serpents, bitches, beavers, old bats, old hens, mother hens, pussycats, cats, cheetahs, bird-brains, and hare-brains…‘Mother Nature’ is raped, mastered, conquered, mined; her secrets are ‘penetrated,’ her ‘womb’ is to be put into the service of the ‘man of science.’ Virgin timber is felled, cut down; fertile soil is tilled, and land that lies ‘fallow’ is ‘barren,’ useless. The exploitation of nature and animals is justified by feminizing them; the exploitation of women is justified by naturalizing them.”
