So I saw Jurassic Park 3-D last night. I know. It was $17. That’s ridiculous. But if there’s one movie from my childhood worth revisiting on the big, three-dimensional screen, it’s Jurassic Park. This was actually the very first movie I remember seeing on the big screen when I was a kid and I clearly remembered all the famous dino scenes—the dilophosaurus melting Newman’s face, the T-Rex eating the lawyer, the “clever girl.” But I had forgotten one major element of the film: Dr. Ellie Sattler is the best! 

Goodmorning everyone! Here's a sample of the news we've been reading at the Bitch HQ.

• Were you told in school that if you took birth control, your mother probably hates you? Well the high schoolers at George Washington High were, and this one rad student spoke out. [Think Progress]
• The new Dove ad: some love it, some hate it. It's certainly not without its problems, and this feminist blogger explains why. [Jazzy Little Drops]
• If you're thinking of moving to another city or want to appreciate the one you are already in, here’s a list of the top 10 best-paying cities (in the US) for women. [USA Today]
• To add insult to injury, this one trans woman in Georgia that was incarcerated for allegedly exposing her breasts in public was placed and harassed in the men’s ward. Unfortunately this story happens all the time, but it’s still one worth reading.  [Advocate]
• If you're in New Jersey today and tomorrow, you’re in luck! Why? Because there’s a conference happening at Rutgers University on Trans Politics and Strategies for Social Change. [Institute for Research on Women]

The best stories are the juicy ones. This episode of our feminist pop culture podcast is all about pulp (timely, right?). We talk with best-selling thriller writer Chelsea Cain about how her pregnancy inspired her to get started writing gory stories and she reads us a horrific short story about a hungry zombie baby. Then, we feature a sneak-peek excerpt from Monica Nolan's new lesbian erotica pulp, Maxine Mainwearing: Lesbian Dilettante. Finally, we talk with everyone's favorite mystery writer Laura Lippman about love, money, and reality television. 

All that, in just 20 minutes. Listen in!
