There are several possibilities: 1. this is what is stored in Nicole’s surrogate brain, 2. this is Nicole’s surrogate brain, 3. this is meant to be our surrogate brain, 4. in at least one case Paul from Radio Slack’s brain is involved or 5. this is the search for a surrogate brain. Or maybe we’re being too literal. Whatever is going on is vaguely political with an essay about why it’s important to increase the dialogue about rape and the real damage, fear and anger it causes. The article by Paul also talks about rape, particularly the role the media plays by the way it portrays rape and victims of rape. Then there’s a lot about being in university; late night study sessions, professors who don’t think women can think and notes from Bullshit 101. Finally there’s life as a pre-teen Duran Duran worshipper which honestly reminds us what swooning 11-year-olds are like. This would not be complete without the reminiscence of the first time Nicole got loaded.
