She´s come a long way for you to find her
Someone to stand up for her
someone to watch over her
Now that you´ve found her, you´ll never be the same
She´s found her guardian angel
She´s the one. She´s the chosen one 

Coming from the east she goes west
Walks and walks without rest
Borders, police and army
She´s trying to find her family

She can´t go back the way she came
Can´t take any more of that pain
They tried their tear gas,
Need more that that to make her cry

She´s come as far as she can, now she needs you
don´t let her down,
You´re on sacred ground
Now that she´s arrived,
show her it´s her world
Don´t let her disappear
She´s the one.  She´s the chosen one

Coming from the east she goes west
Walks and walks without rest
Borders, police and army
Trying to find her family
She can´t go back the way she came
Can´t take any more of that pain
They tried their tear gas,
Need more that that to make her cry

She came a long way just to love you
On a well-beaten path,
like many have before
Like a ragged stream upon threadbare dreams
Falling to the ocean,
You´re the ocean, for the chosen one

Coming from the east she goes west
Walks and walks without rest
Borders, police and army
Trying to find her family

She can´t go back the way she came
Can´t take any more of that pain
They tried their tear gas,
Need more that that to make her cry

Exile

We've been sitting in our rage for a few months now, and it feels a lot like sitting on a three-day-old maxi-pad... ITS TIME FOR A CHANGE. Since we're watching a fascist regime easily take over our country, we wanted to re-release our interview with Liv Vasquez, and re-share her experience with tear gas and how it affected her menstrual cycle.  Take this episode as a reminder to protect yourselves — especially those blisteners out there protesting. We love you.

ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES:
We've got a great ep for you, with special guest Liv Vasquez, who is suing the city of Portland, Oregon for the adverse effects police tear gas had on her menstrual health. Liv was living in Portland, Oregon in the summer of 2020 during the demonstrations sparked by the murder of George Floyd, in which tear gas was used against protesters daily. We talk with Liv about how her period has changed, the importance of cases like this setting a precedent, and - of course - we cover some new crazy questions that will definitely make you chuckle. Slap on a gas mask and an overnight pad and get cozy with your blosts.
