I’m guessing friends & family won’t be there. Navy recruit training is still holding graduations (unlike Army basic training) but no guests are permitted.

I’m not sure Biden is progressive compared to Trump. (One of the few policy examples I can think of to vote for Dems no matter what is abortion access. Since this is law via Roe, it’s not really progressive, though, whereas free abortions would be.)

I would also not enjoy being in isolation with my ex-husband, also an emotionally abusive pothead! I’m happy to report he no longer regularly appears in my nightmares. 🤠

Random clarification:

I’m kinda amazed you had that as a grad student! 👏

Especially the spiel about “we can’t wait for X, we can’t wait for Y!”

Hell yeah. I joke that the baby & I scrambled to deliver when the doc threatened an episiotomy. Happy with my natural tear, thankyouverymuch.

Larry,

In elementary school (maybe 4th grade?), word spread that David F. was talking smack about my best friend Joy. I guess I decided he needed confronting, so after school I did so on the playground. I’m pretty sure he just dismissed me questioning him or whatever because he blew me off & turned to walk away. At this…

Thank you for sharing your story

I agree. One of my good friends spent her career in special education classrooms with moderately to severely disabled students. I really appreciated her perspective as my partner & I got serious about expanding our family.

Eeekk!!

Ugh, that's so gross! We were all about not knowing; I knew the feelings we and others had about sex and gender would crop up... Shove it, dude!

Looks scary! Also, BD Wong?! Sweet!!

I’m not following the Buffalo Bill point but I'm very much interested!

Agreeing to halt tests does NOT magically include halting the building of missiles.

The Times article was focusing on how Javanka has weathered critics and scandal to remain advisors. I read the Brady snippet as a vain & thirsty Trump wanting a famous quarterback in the family. Nothing more.

That is such a good, heartbreaking read! My college students were always *shocked* to learn about this.

Yup

You been arrested for playing dominoes lately?
