Summary

Did you hear about the app that wants to 3D model your face to make sure you're a girl? It's called Giggle and we do not approve of it. In this preview of this week's bonus episode, Riley, Hussein, Alice, and artist Matt Lubchansky (@lubchansky) also discuss Mayor Pete, the US democratic primary, and much more. We thought about calling this episode 'ISIS for Girls' but Alice got to choose the title after she completely evaporated Riley's brain by reading test copy from Pete Buttigieg's website. Don't worry -- we recorded it all.

Rat mode, rat mode, rat mode.

Dear rat boy.

Because Mayor Pete's campaign is all about making him seem normal like a regular person
