“It is not enough for you to be out of my house. I insist you also be miserable.”

I have never seen anything as revolutionary, revelatory, or wonderful as Hamilton. And I’ve seen a lot of Broadway shows. Hamilton turned Broadway on its ear. It was magnificent.

When Daveed Diggs said that Jefferson wrote so many crucial documents but also “sucked,” I lost it. It made my little historian heart grow three sizes.

He really seems like he genuinely loves us all back.

In my parent’s house, there are framed photos of two very sad women. One is my great grandmother, who stopped speaking for 2 years when her daughter died after falling down a well. The other is my great great aunt, who died of a botched abortion when she was 17. It’s never been a family secret or a morality tale, just…

Probably because if the opposite happened, if Clinton had filled the audience with his accusers, Trump would have lost it.

When I had my abortion, the doctor was very apologetic and said “Do you want to see the ultrasound, I have to ask.” I was like Fuck no and also felt bad that she obviously didn’t want to ask me that but legally had to. It’s so dumb.

So next week on SNL I need a rendition of “Burn” (from Hamilton) by Trump’s ex wife Ivana, played by Kate McKinnon maybe? The actual song lyrics include the following:

“You said that out loud. Did you know that?”

• Guarantee up to 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave to care for a new child or a seriously ill family member, and up to 12 weeks of medical leave to recover from a serious illness or injury of their own.

“When we get information, we must take the quality of the source into consideration to determine its validity.” This. Also: she doesn’t offer paid maternity leave, which is within her power to do. So, she’s an asshole.

I hate that people don’t take this seriously. I have lived the privileged life of a white American my whole life and I have trouble wrapping my mind around envisioning an election leading to war, but I understand it’s possible and it would be BAD. Not exciting, not revolutionary. These people must fucking envision an…

Yeah, I saw that! Most people have no idea how real shit is about to get. It seems they’re either convinced that industrial civilization will just continue forever, or they’re nutjob preppers who believe that a single event (usually something unlikely like an asteroid or a solar flare) will send us into Mad Max…

OMIGAWD THEY FOUND THE TERRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOR!!!!

And so the USA Freedom Kids learn the meaning and beauty of unregulated capitalism.

May it please the court: up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b, a, select, start.

Right. Yep. Uh-huh. Tell me more about how this isn’t sexist, guys.

Why are there not more stars for the mouse sticker?

I love to hear smoking success stories! I quit before the age of vaping, which was maybe helpful because I really had to deal with the oral fixation stuff right away. I used the patch for 6 weeks, and followed all of the instructions. I tapered off and there it was, DONE! 11 1/2 years now! To this day I don’t have any…
