now I’m crying all over again. I am a huge believer in communal singing as a way to heal the soul. I am really looking forward to my next chorus rehearsal next week. thanks for linking.

This song was played at the wake of the person I love most in the world. I haven’t been able to listen to this song for years but I listened to this now. Thank you, I really needed to hear it again. Was a much needed cry 💜

My mom died between episode seven and eight of True Detective (which she loved). I swear that haunted me more than anything. I finished practically every season of everything, every book, every task. God that still haunts me.

Oh, but that’s the worst part: Leonard Cohen’s final days were these last few days. How depressing is that?

I imagine he thinks you can roll down the windows and shake the hands of the people like it’s a fucking Barnes and Nobles book signing. I worked “government adjacent” for a bit, and in Seattle, the only Secret Service approved hotel is the downtown Westin. There’s something specific about the construction of the…

Are you familiar with the Robert Redford movie The Candidate? It’s about a guy who had no business running for president who runs for president at the urging of advisors who guide him every step of the way.

Oh, I want him to crumble so fucking bad. All due to the pressure, the late night freakouts, having to answer to the public every fucking single day. Knowing that everyone will turn on him, within a blink of an eye. I hope he suffers immensely. He doesn’t have the balls for this job. This isn’t a fucking game of…

I honestly think he didn’t really believe he’d win, now he’s fucked because he has no idea what he’s doing. I get people were pissed at Washington, but there’s a huge difference between being a lifer in Congress and having zero political experience. I cringe when I think of his foreign policy learning curve....

I didn’t vote for him

I am not even American and I’ve burst into tears 4 times since yesterday. I’m so sorry you guys, everything about this is painful to look at, as illustrated by the above photos.

Get ready for the most secretive, paranoid White House since Nixon.

What’s the over under on how many journalists from the White House Press Pool will have their credentials rescinded in favor of crony alt-right “journalists”?

THIS IS SO FUCKING SCARY.

Yep. Here we go.

My response when he did that bit was a halfhearted, “maybe...”

Yeah, Fallon’s dead to me.

I love meyers for this, and all his coverage of the election, he has really found his rhythm.

My coworker’s daughter is out protesting in Seattle. The girl voted for Stein. She should be home hanging her head in shame.
