Did not enjoy Lamb (just didn’t like the writing) but The Stupidest Angel and Bloodsucking Fiends are favorites

AND, Rule #3: no matter how many times someone tells you that they are safe with their guns, YOU are ultimately responsible for your own safety and the safety of your dependents when around “safe” people with guns. I disparage no one, but even the best trained, most safety-conscious owners can slip, skirt or otherwise…

This. I don’t understand it, but rarely I will trade out my Gouda and sharp cheddar and all that for some fluorescent yellow Kraft shit. Because I fucking CAN and it reminds me of childhood and delicious. Once in a rare while.

I’m a woman and I don’t exactly train mma but I train brazilian jiu jitsu (the ground stuff) and I say do it.
