more radio bliss

listen to Maria Bamford discuss communal living and try to define "eco pets" (cats that eat their own poo?), and this, where Maria does a calm breathy LA woman just perfectly:

Maria: You know, I make a pretty good living, I could take a year off and help people somewhere.

LA Friend: Maria, you already do so much. You make people laugh – that’s the greatest gift in the world.

Maria: But I only do that maybe an hour a night. In the off time I could sponge bathe the dying or just hose things off a little bit in general.

LA: Why don’t you just buy a pair of fair trade shoes made of recycled materials and do your part?

Maria: I already have 80 pairs of shoes! Don’t you think conscious neglect is the equivalent of perpetration?

LA: Ok, it sounds like somebody needs to take a bubble bath.
