When I was 19 I got two STDs in one week. Where is my parade?

Who among us hasn’t met with a Russian lobbyist offering dirt on our father’s political opponent as a pretext to talk about sanctions, forgotten to talk about the dirt, and then lied about it for months?

It’s just gotten to the point that news like this just depresses me. It’s just another reminder of the kind of thing that’s supposed to obviously matter, but that obviously isn’t going to.

Oh, but when it does happen, these are the folks who see it. We adopted a five-month-old Clumber Spaniel, who was adorable, and adored me, adored me, adored me. And even though she got regular exercise and a pleasing home environment and good training supervised by a very senior guy, it soon became clear that she…

I have all rescues myself. Difficult dogs are not for everybody. And it looks like she wasn’t fit for that dog as much as it wasn’t fit for her. These things happen. And she took the care to re-home it. That’s not irresponsible, in fact quite the opposite.

A lot of dogs get turned into the humane society for behavioral problems. If this dog was more than Dunham could handle, then she did the right thing by getting him to the people who could. Lamby is now with an owner that can manage his problems and loves him. That’s the best outcome for the dog.

Good thing your personal experience is universal, and all dogs are the same, then.

Sounds like you have some serious dog-parenting skills!

TIL rehoming a dog is apparently the same as “abandoning” it.

I have had a foster dog for 3 years. He can’t leave, and I can’t formally adopt him yet because of his behavioral issues. He was gentle and friendly in the shelter— because he’s an extremely sensitive dog, and when you separate him from me, he shuts right down. The rescue and I have worked with 3 dog trainers, and…

But... you still don’t know her dog.

Eh. My mom got the sweetest dog at the shelter about a year and a half ago, and eventually he turned into a growler and a biter and a dog with food aggression. Through multiple trainers and boardings, she’s finally looking to re-home him. It really does happen.

Lorde rocks, and so does Taylor Swift, and if you don’t think so that’s OK too.

It has been well over a year, and neither of them are exactly young anymore. Waiting for the sake of waiting seems silly, if the relationship is at the right point.

It would be too soon FOR YOU. Grief affects each of us differently, and there is no timetable that we all must follow.

Yes, he is very wrong for not delivering a dissertation covering the breadth of the topic during this interview.

My god, the “famous person says something fundamentally supportive in an imperfect* way so let’s shit on him” genre has to die.

One time I got 38 likes, 16 retweets and 7 comments. I was pretty stoked because i’m pathetic.

Get it Britney. You’re in you’re mid-30's, still up on the stage, shaking your ass. I’m a fat mom in my 30's and I’m eating a 3 Muskateers bar at my desk.
