You know what really grinds my gears? (Since everyone is dying to know.)

“Last September, Kylie couldn’t even get anyone to notice her because she had her old face...”

Snarky Obama is best Obama.

“I have no idea what that means, and I suspect he doesn’t either,” Obama said.

Dang. That's a great response. I think I love Kristin Stewart now.

I’m definitely not afraid of looking my age - but I am afraid of looking afraid to look my age.

Yep. I have a 15-month-old son and when I read about little Aylan Kurdi, I cried every time I thought of him. In the car, at work, wherever. Shit, now I'm crying again.

Yeah, I’ve been wondering about her since this story first broke. I was hoping she’d get the help she needed. It sounds like she needed help long before, and we as a society failed her, and thus her son.

I woke up this morning thinking it was a bit chilly in the house so but not terribly so so I dressed the baby in her normal onesie and socks and went on about my day. Then I read this nightmare, put fuzzy pants on the baby, and have since spent the rest of the day cuddling her.

It doesn’t have to be that cold for hypothermia to set in. Mid sixties can do it, especially if the person is small without much body fat. Throw in the fact that he was sick and had low resistance/heat reserves, and there you go, tragedy.

That does not sound like the actions of a mentally fit or stable person. I really wish the boy’s father had pressed the issue and told the court that the boy’s mother was unfit. But I’m also sure that he wishes the same, far more than I ever could. What an abysmally sad story all around.

When I was a prosecutor, I found that frequently, the best way to get mental health care for a person was to charge them with a felony. At that point they can start getting evaluated, get any medications they might need and maybe get some kind of ongoing treatment. I hope this poor woman can be restored to health.…

This is still one of the saddest stories I’ve ever heard.

And now I wish I was home hugging my 14 month old. When I first heard about this story I thought maybe he had died at home and she was in shock and brought him to the swing...but this...I think I’m done with today.

Our high school senior class quote was along those lines, “work like you don’t need the money, dance like no one is watching.” One of my good friends was valedictorian. She got drunk for the first time at a graduation after party, and I remember her slurring, “it’s SO true. You should work like no one is watching, and…

Mitt Romney didn’t consider black people fully human until 1978, assuming he follows Mormon doctrine.

Or he recently bought “Overturned Supreme Court Decisions Of The Day Toilet Paper.”
