Happiness Over Everything (H.O.E.) - 037

07/01/20 • 68 min

Is Happiness an emotion or a state of being? Can you love other people into being Happy? Do you need sadness to appreciate your happiness? How do you even know you've found happiness? How do you maintain your happiness? How do you grow and change within your own happiness? Life is difficult for humans, but a few things make it infinitely more tolerable, and this week, we talk about a quite evasive state that we've always been encouraged to "pursue", Happiness. Share with us what makes you happy on Social Media: https://linktr.ee/99percentanomaly. Listen to this episode to find out why Cass doesn't like when her favorite artists are happy (those toxic songs be fire 🤷🏿‍♀️), Nessa maybe, probably, potentially, no longer hates being happy, and Dassa questions whether pain is necessary to create some bomb ass art. As always, music by Sarel (@sarel_youniverse) and Jeff Pierre (@jeffpierremusic). Visit our website: https://linktr.ee/99percentanomaly,

Sexism: A double-Edged Sword - 036

Are there any benefits to sexism? Should women be fighting against the negative ways that sexism affect men at the same time that we're trying to fight against our own oppression from them? When did you first notice sexism in your life? If a man does not want to have a kid and says it clearly and the woman goes through the pregnancy, should he pay for child support? We spent a lot longer on this question than we intended to but it's a lively conversation! Disagreed with any of us? Tell us on social media: https://linktr.ee/99percentanomaly. This week is all about Sexism and the tensions in the relationships between men and women and how we all lose in this fight. We even brush on the J. Cole vs. NoName discussion. "Being a woman is a double-edged sword." In this episode, Nessa reveals her strategies and justifications for no longer doing any manual labor in her life (hint: they came with a ring), Cass discusses how she's always been banding with women against the system since she was a ti katkat (a little girl smashing the patriarchy), and Dassa plays the devil's advocate about choice, child support, and abortion (her opinion really doesn't matter because she's extremely pro the choice of not having kids ever). Music by Sarel (@sarel_youniverse) and Jeff Pierre (@jeffpierremusic).
