The linked article said he had three outstanding warrants for violating the protection order. Who knows why the police hadn’t arrested him...I guess they didn’t consider it a priority.

Internet people are assholes. I don’t know enough to even be on the show, so color me impressed. And I bet the people who insulted you didn’t know the answers either.

My sophomore year english teacher refused to sign the paperwork to allow me to take AP english the next year, even though I got an A in her class (and every english class I’d ever taken) because she didn’t like me. She hated me from day one, and apparently hated my older sister too. Fortunately I was able to go over…

Thanks for your perspective and recommendations!

Thank you for the summaries. I’m about to go on a trip and am definitely going to get a couple of audiobooks from your suggestions.

Thank you!

Omg! I bet it was hard to concentrate after that. Did people notice? What did you do?

Thanks!

You’re a better source than goodreads. Can you recommend a couple that you enjoyed the most?

May no one in NYC have to bleed through their pants again. That shit is humiliating.

Well he yells a lot. But he believes that change can be made, which is the very definition of optimism. You can be angry and optimistic at the same time.

I’m glad that he’s finally acknowledging defeat, but I’m also glad that he’s going to continue to push his progressive agenda. He’s made us have conversations that we wouldn’t have had otherwise. Hopefully Hillary will absorb some of his optimism and get shit done when she’s elected.

I just wrote a letter to my congressman and I hope everyone else does too! He’s a republican asshole who sucks the NRA’s collective dick, but one can hope it will help.

Jesus fucking christ. What makes people do something like that? I feel like I’m going to throw up. That poor boy.

Thanks! I did try that briefly, but it left me feeling hungover (which ambien doesn’t do to me). Human bodies are so weird that the same drug can work so differently for different people.

Yeah, I felt weird even typing “step daughter” and “half sister.” They are father and daughter in every way that matters (my sister’s bio dad is a piece of shit and no longer in the picture). My sister changed her name to match our dad’s as a father’s day gift as soon as she turned 18.

That’s scary. Luckily that hasn’t happened to me. Once I actually make myself put my devices down and go to sleep, I don’t really wake up again.

As sure as I can be. I go straight to bed and am certain that I don’t get up out of bed at any point. In general people wake up during the night, roll over and fall back asleep. An ambien user might wake up somewhat, but they don’t store that memory, so it feels like you slept through the night without interruption.…

Ambien and wine are the only reason I sleep.

Yeah, most people who have problems with ambien don’t go to bed immediately. The only times I’ve had problem with it are when I stayed up. Fortunately the only weird thing I’ve done is clean the kitchen. It was kind of a nice surprise to wake up to.
