Normally you would see CBD here on Sunday at noon. However, he is on a mission outside of the kitchen. And you are stuck with yours truly.

This past week Jane D'Oh submitted the following Hat Tip: Local group works to tackle period poverty
Period Poverty Awareness Week starts on Monday, May 20th.
Lacey Gero with the Alliance for Period Supplies is just one person trying to get the word out.
“Period poverty is the lack of access to a sufficient supply of period products that are needed to actually get through a menstrual cycle,” explained Gero.
One of the biggest groups impacted by this are students.
Where is this terrible tragedy taking place? Nigeria? Cambodia? Afghanistan? No this gut wrenching story comes from Savannah State University located in Savannah, Georgia, USA.
Once upon a time yours truly lived in a house with a wife and three teenage daughters. So I�m a little bit familiar with the female species. Which includes the good, the bad and the ugly. So I understand the theme of Girl Power.
And if Ms. Gero were my daughter she would not be welcomed home for quite some time. Because we raised our children to use their intellect instead of emotion. Lessons of personal responsibility were taught. And we attempted to instill in them curiosity and not accept everything on face value.
Ms Gero cannot understand normal thinking. She is intellectually lazy, has the curiosity of a facial tissue and lives in an entitlement bubble. She is surrounded by "adults" who are just as dishonest and lazy as our fearless student rabble-rouser.
Jacqueline Awe is the Director of Student Development at Savannah State University. She says their star program is a safe haven for many students needing period products.
“That’s how our program got started, " said Awe “because students were embarrassed going to class and having body odor and they weren’t going.” “We started by buying them out of our own pockets and keeping them in our offices”.
Students didn't have enough money for a tampon? Are you fucking kidding me? So these adultschildren don't have an extra $20.00 per month for a personal hygiene? I bet they have enough for monthly contraception or their daily Star Bucks concoction. What is discretionary spending for $500.
If a student doesn't have enough common sense to bath/shower on a regular basis, perhaps they aren't college material.
Just look at the Amazon site and you will find oodles and oodles of this precious product for sale. Hell, they even qualify for Mommy & Daddy's HSA account.

And just think they are also organic. Saaa-weet.
I propose the following cure for these Karens. The Horde can create a Go-Fund-Me account. We can provide free hysterectomies. It would be a win-win-win-win situation. They save $240.00 give or take yearly, aren't embarrassed by body odor, we won't have to listen to them asking us to pay for their abortions and future generations of Karens would never see the light of day. Like I said, it's a win-win-win-win for all of us.
Stupidity should be painful. Very painful.
