The Curbside Prophet

My name is Alyssa Mae.

I am a mid-twenties avid intersectional feminist, advocate, fighter, counselor, and friend. I will be graduating from Bucknell University in May with degrees in Psychology and Women’s & Gender Studies. I work with survivors of sexual assault and other trauma, and I fix computers for a living.

I often blog about what it is like to live at the intersections of a few different mental illnesses, queerness, and sexuality, along with posts about sexism, racism, rape culture, and LGBT rights. There is a trigger warning for these on my entire blog. You will see posts about depression, eating disorders, PTSD, panic disorder, and fat activism. This has been my safe space for four years now, and I reserve the right to ask you to leave it if necessary.

Welcome to my life.

“The news of JPMorgan Chase’s estimated $2 billion loss stemming from a misguided hedging strategy in the bank’s chief investment office has set off a spring-loaded schadenfreude cannon among the industry’s critics….

Since the shocking disclosure, [CEO Jamie] Dimon was flayed by industry analysts as well as media onlookers for having been a vocal opponent of the Dodd-Frank regulatory overhaul while at the same time overseeing risky trades that could hurt his bank’s earnings.” - Kevin Roose of the New York Times

Some realness:

‘The enormous loss JPMorgan announced today is just the latest evidence that what banks call “hedges” are often risky bets that so-called “too big to fail” banks have no business making,” - Senator Carl Levin

That’s some sweet unregulated finance sector you’ve got there.
