95 - RE-RELEASE: Police Tear Gas F*cked With Her Menstrual Cycle

We've been sitting in our rage for a few months now, and it feels a lot like sitting on a three-day-old maxi-pad... ITS TIME FOR A CHANGE. Since we're watching a fascist regime easily take over our country, we wanted to re-release our interview with Liv Vasquez, and re-share her experience with tear gas and how it affected her menstrual cycle. Take this episode as a reminder to protect yourselves — especially those blisteners out there protesting. We love you. Find Liv on TikTok and IG: @livviesmalls ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES: We've got a great ep for you, with special guest Liv Vasquez, who is suing the city of Portland, Oregon for the adverse effects police tear gas had on her menstrual health. Liv was living in Portland, Oregon in the summer of 2020 during the demonstrations sparked by the murder of George Floyd, in which tear gas was used against protesters daily. We talk with Liv about how her period has changed, the importance of cases like this setting a precedent, and - of course - we cover some new crazy questions that will definitely make you chuckle. Slap on a gas mask and an overnight pad and get cozy with your blosts.
