In this episode, we challenge internal binaries and make ourselves a little crazy. Tangents include mono, trusting your own autonomy, sexual abstinence, HBO’s Girls, and more eating disorder literature. Plus, Christina launches a new podcast and we find out which drugs Lauren purchases in bulk. Enjoy!
