Thank you.

Caregivers in general get shafted tremendously. Have you ever seen caregivers’ associations? They’re all about how to work yourself to death *even more*. They’re not about you, and about your own problems, ambitions, the hell you live in. They’re about how you can dust off and be the invisible help *for someone else*…

What? Why should she let it go now? She should be LOUD AS FUCK until she gets all the credit she’s due.

I do. Go away.

Oh yeah, he’s the one with the staffer who told me there wasn’t any point to #metoo or pushing Al Franken off the cliff because this is just how men treat women.

His name is CHAD. LUDINGTON.
I’m having vertigo from this 20th/21st-c rapid frameshifting.

Where is Millie’s mom?

Oh good, vaginawashing.

It’s amazing how these guys keep on trying this. I’ve been watching it now for at least five years, and the only people it convinces are their kids. To be nice to them and not say that it’s terrible and obvious bullshit that nobody should do.

Do they not. fucking. ever. get. that it’s not.…

This week in news and culture:

The Boomer-Olds are powerfully confused by the fact that they’re supposed to pay attention to this sexual whosis now. I MEAN WHO CAN UNDERSTAND IT. Except everybody else, you know, the ones who’d be doing a lot of the running things now if the Boomers hadn’t been so fucking greedy that…

Maybe time for a new partner. I know, it sounds like an overreaction, right? Can I tell you how many times I refused to overreact only to waste another five or six years on some guy who never was worth my time?

Uh...some people change.

And lots don’t.

And it’s the Supreme Court, not a Verizon customer-service unit in Denver.

UGH why do these guys always grip little girls’ shoulders like this? UGH UGH UGH, oh my god, little girl, run away.

God bless you.

Funny, I don’t find it amusing at all. Maybe it’s the lifetime of unqualified guys telling me how I’m doing it wrong, then getting all pissed off when I embarrass them in public.

Please let her know that she doesn’t have to engage at all with these guys. All she has to do, if she wants to avoid, is to pull out her phone, actually use it as a phone to call you while looking anxiously at the guy, and low-talk into it about this guy who’s there and won’t go away.

Or you could tell her that if…

It’s so weird watching millennials rewrite my life.

No, the 80s were not all about Slenderella. I was an aerobics instructor in the 80s, I worked in gyms, sold memberships, coordinated racquetball...stuff, was very much *in gyms*. Here’s what it was already about by then: athletics. Injury prevention. “Natural”…

What are you even talking about? You didn’t just go straight to “let her come first”, did you? Because damn.

Don’ make no difference.

NYT has not been NYT in several years now. I think they should be sued for trademark infringement.

She has it absolutely right: look those people in the eye, call them on the phone, and say, “Why are you doing this?” It’s not just Trump, not just the members of Congress. It’s every single person who participates in helping these policies to roll along.
