And Now, Something Completely Different…

HERCULES!!

This isn’t really an interruption in our scheduled programming, because we’re always celebrating women around these parts, but today is the first day of our month-long series titled The Women of Our Year, where we celebrate the people who made this year worth actually something. (Just a note: we’re applying the term “women” pretty loosely, and we didn’t leave anyone out because of biology.)

We’ll be posting interviews and essays about these kickass people all month, through the winter holidays, so strap in for the ride: the first post debuts at 3:30 today. Happy first day of December/Almost Holidays/Can-You-Believe-It’s-Almost-The-End-of-2014-Death-Is-Totally-Nigh, and always remember, put the ladies first.
