I was a at the MoMA screening! This documentary was fantastic. It had a feel good sense but at the same time noted struggles they faced as a queer feminist band. Warning: the slipknot scene will cause excessive giggling. be prepared. Also, the fact that I knot only got to meet 2/3 of Le Tigre but also Joan Jett was a little too much for me to handle. MoMA essentially was like “Oh hey, Danielle is coming, lets just throw all of her inspirational heroes in the same theater and see if she survives.” Can’t wait to get this on DVD.

SO my embarassing/adorable babydyke story is that when i went to see le tigre in college in 2004, like three months out of the suburbs and my relash with my high school boyfriend, some friend had some rly qt friend visiting from somewhere else and we like “got along really well” and danced a lot and got drunk and held hands and then i made out with her like a few weeks later and it was the first time i was all like, “holy crap it’s not only me other girls might want to make sexy with me too, this is, like, possible, maybe i can like really be gay or something” #LIFECHANGINGQUEEREXPERIENCES

oh my god. funny story. Le Tigre just came to new orleans and they were staying at a friend of a friend’s house and had a big party after the show. BUT my friend who knows THEIR friends wouldn’t go because this woman who teaches gender studies at my school was there. Apparently gender studies teacher has a thing for my friend and would be pissed if she brought me, a student. I don’t know if anyone understood that but yeah. I really wanted to go.

The MoMA screening was amazing. DID YOU GUYS SEE JOAN JETT?! She sat right behind me and I almost died.

I really loved the part when JD talked about how being in Le Tigre shifted her own identity/changed the way she thought about herself. It was awesome.

Haha, that would’ve been a great question. I think my crush on Johanna grew about 10x after that scene.

it took everything in my power not to raise my hand during the q&a and ask if they were concerned about hurting slipknot’s feelings after the dvd release.
