Everything these twunts are proudly instagramming all over the net is more stupid/trendy/embarrassing than anything GROWN UPS ARE WEARING TO GO TO WORK.

Absolutely no one but my husband in the delivery room. It was the first grandkid on both sides so they were ridiculous but that was a hard line for me. The peachick was three weeks early so it didn’t end up coming up lol.

My favorite time of day is when Husband gets up before me and I sprawl across the bed like a walrus.

Something that made me smile: seeing my best friend’s new tattoo. She got “Nevertheless, she persisted” on her left bicep, and it’s great! She’s so happy, and living with the guy she’s been in love with since we were in college (they’ve already talked marriage) and honestly, it couldn’t have happened to a nicer person.

My 10-years younger boss is pregnant and still insists on wearing her stiletto heels. I just shake my head from the comfort of my Born flats and think about how fucked up her feet will be when she’s my age.

The one person I work with who I KNOW voted for him told us she only voted because her husband expected her to. We teach at a school that is overwhelmingly populated by students who live in housing and ever since then I’ve picked up on how shitty she is to our kids and their parents. She might have voted because of…

I don’t get it either, to be honest.

I need help in standing up to self-involved, emotionally manipulative people who will ignore you if you let them.

Yet his parents voted for Trump.

Baby got to see the brand new IKEA in town today. We are soooo lame. :(

Next on the “ it’s wild” list: sleeping spread out on the bed, like a starfish. REBELLIOUS! ;)

I knew I was going to need a C-section, and I’m an older mother as well, so the only person we let visit within a week after the baby was born was my sister-in-law, who is one of those endlessly organized women who had two kids at that time, one eight, and one six years old. She remembered how to do all of this…

Overheard a couple of the young, thin, lovely 20-somethings in advertising mocking the way some of the older women dress at my work. Feeling super self-conscious now, and I hate that I care. I’m angry at myself for giving them space inside my head.

In lines to get tickets to Wonder Woman. Spotted a cute little girl wearing a cute little WW shirt. So I complimented her on it. And she complimented me on mine. Then Duckling got into the mix...

I’m in the Greys but I have a genuine question.

Today at the airport while waiting to board this 4ish year old boy was dancing and hopping around the gate singing a madeup song and dancing and having the fucking time of his life. It was so cute, he had so much energy, and he made me so happy. His outfit was awesome too. Black and white stripey pants, cute lime…

I know we’ve been over this again and again re: Trump, but I just woke up from a nap in which I dreamed that I told off a bunch of Trump voters, and now I am steamed. Seriously, what were people thinking?! When you vote, the question is not, “Who is perfect and has never made a mistake and believes every single thing…

Today on the bus I saw a toddler talk to the man next to him. The toddler asked him how old he was, when his birthday was and if he had any friends. The whole section of the bus was laughing together. It was a really nice display of community.

Hi Lauren, may I be un-grayed, please? I lost my burner in an expensive orange juice accident, and I would like to be able to post these Resistance Threads where people an see them easily. I used to be in the blacks on Jezebel, The Slot, and I09 as Poodletime. Thanks!

I got a raise at work! Started at $9.00 and now it’s $10.31.
