When Sleater-Kinney released their eleventh studio album, Little Rope, earlier this year, Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker shared their vision for the new music, saying, “A rope can be many things, it can hold us back or it can be a guide line through our most difficult night. The songs, for us, always show us the way forward and we hope you will join us.” On the evening of March 21, Chicago fans joined Sleater-Kinney as they took the stage for an all-ages show at The Riviera Theatre. It quickly became clear that fans and the band were linked by an invisible, unbreakable rope, coming togeth ..read more

A New $16,000 Postpartum Depression Drug Is Here. How Will Insurers Handle It?
Rebellious Magazine
by April Dembosky, KQED
1w ago
A much-awaited treatment for postpartum depression, zuranolone, hit the market in December, promising an accessible and fast-acting medication for a debilitating illness. But most private health insurers have yet to publish criteria for when they will cover it, according to a new analysis of insurance policies. The lack of guidance could limit use of the drug, which is both novel — it targets hormone function to relieve symptoms instead of the brain’s serotonin system, as typical antidepressants do — and expensive, at $15,900 for the 14-day pill regimen. Lawyers, advocates, and regulators are ..read more

Twelve is a lucky number for my family: My sister (Rebellious Magazine Social Media Director and Pop Culture Maven Valerie), brother and I were all born on the 12th of different months, and my mother was born on a 24th. It’s a coincidence that’s always carried a lot of meaning for me, a connection between us and a glimpse into the mysterious ways the universe works. It gives me permission to go full-on woo-woo. This year, Rebellious turns 12. On March 8, 2012, International Women’s Day, we launched with a series of essays from folks about what makes them Rebellious. It’s an auspicious occasio ..read more

Review: Biopics ‘Oppenheimer’ & ‘Maestro’ Hit High & Low Notes
Rebellious Magazine
by Janet Arvia
3w ago
Although Oppenheimer and Maestro head into the Academy Awards ceremony with 20 nominations between them, neither can be defined as typical Oscar bait. Instead of unimaginative biopics with corny uplifting messages, these 2023 movies make the most of the artistic medium with candid interpretations of complex men.  Theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer and conductor/composer Leonard Bernstein were liberal east coasters of Jewish descent who graduated from Harvard. After moving on to other universities, they gained international acclaim for making milestone advances in their respectiv ..read more
