Happy 30th Birthday, Jessica!
Today, our Jessica turns 30. We'll have a little something special for her (and you all) tomorrow, but for now - Happy Happy Birthday, Jessica!
What can we say about this incredibly inspiring, intelligent, and hilarious feminist that hasn't already been said? One thing is for sure, finishing three books before you reach the age of thirty is a damn big accomplishment. And we are all so, so proud of her.
Send her birthday wishes in comments. Happy birthday, sis. Love you!

Happy birthday.
At thirty, some people have made choices they deeply want to unmake, and some people are still waiting for their lives to start, and some people have blinders on and drift from day to day while years go by.
And at thirty, some people have charted a course to do something very difficult, something that makes the world a better place, and have accomplished a tremendous amount, and have touched people's lives and built communities and ... actually, that's very, very few people. So you should be proud of yourself.
Jessica-
You are an inspiration to young, independent feminists everywhere. Your books are a huge part of what made me the dedicated feminist I am today, and I know I can say the same of my little sister who picked up "He's a Stud, She's a Slut" out of boredom, read a paragraph, looked up at me and said "Whoa, this is SO TRUE! Can I borrow this?" She's been a devoted feminist ever since. So happy 30th, and thank you so much for your amazing contribution to the online feminist community!
Happy Birthday! Thanks for being such an amazing inspiration :D
Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday, Jessica! I love your books and I love feministing. Thanks for all you do!
:D Happy Bidet! And many more of those and of books, if you are so moved.
happpppppppppppy birthday!
hope you have loads of fun!
Jessica, your work is an invaluable resource and inspiration, especially to this frustrated-bleeding-heart-liberal-idealist high schooler. You really are this generation's Gloria Steinem.
Thank you for all you do to further the cause for women's equality and, in that, women's empowerment.
From one Jessica to another... happy birthday!
Happy birthday, Jessica! Thank you for all that you do to help keep feminism alive and kicking. :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESSICA!
YOU ROCK!
Happy birthday!!!! You are fabulous, darling- and never forget it! xoxo
That's odd, I really would have thought she'd read more than that...
Happy birthday!
Glad to see you with a smile 30 can be tough. Happy B-day. Remember you can always turn 30 again next year, I've been doing it for awhile now.
Happy Birthday, Ms. Valenti. Congratulations on your big Three-Oh!

Happy Birthday Jessica! I just turned thirty a few months ago, so I'll quote my Logan's Run party theme: Carousel is a lie! We don't have to die at thirty! We can live! LIVE!
Thanks for being, Jessica. Hope it was a good one.
Happy Birthday Jessica From ENGLAND! On behalf of your sisters in Britain we love you and appreciate your work xxxx
