Very nice parent moment earlier as the girls very nicely interacted while explaining this whole thing to my wife (I was caught up enough thanks Twitter)
I just got a 10 minute explanation of this whole beef from my son, complete with lyrics and explanations (though I had to explain to him what a beard is). I was going to make a joke about how nobody was talking about it in here, and then I find this discussion... My son is worried Drake is going to put a hit on Kendrick, he likes Kendrick. And my daughter plays more Drake in the car then I care to listen to.

I'd point out that the outlaw/alt.country-ish stuff that swampers like AB, Giff, BSF, Brian and me prefer never gets played on mainstream country radio.
When Kathleen Hanna was 19 years old, a man broke into her apartment while she was out and attacked her roommate, Allee. The man beat her, dragged her by her hair and said he would rape and kill her but, as Allee fought back, he lost his grip, allowing her to run into the street and call for help. Hanna decided enough was enough. “You know when these big life events happen, like when someone close to you dies or gets cancer or is assaulted?” she says. “A lot of times they change us. I just thought: ‘This can’t happen again. How can I be part of the solution?’”
The answer lay just a few blocks from their apartment at SafePlace, a rape relief and domestic violence centre. Hanna, who was already a rape survivor, walked over and signed up for volunteer work. “It wasn’t me trying to be a good person,” she says. “I was in a moment of crisis and trying to figure stuff out, and it changed my life. If it wasn’t for the amazing people in Olympia, Washington, creating that space, I would never have had my eyes opened to what women live through. And then I may never have been in a feminist punk band. And then my life may never have happened.”
