Aww, thanks! Just be happy you all get my exuberant commentary in nice little packages instead of 1000 word stories split into 70+ messages each with their own lovely notification like GP does. (Unless you would prefer that kind of friendship to which I say HA you have no idea what you’re getting in to.)

YOU UNDERSTAND ME

I mean...what you need to understand is that for me, getting the mail is a ‘going out the front door activity’ and the shoe closet is right next to the garage entry and I, personally, would rather not inconvenience myself by taking the time to A) walk further or B) putting on socks and shoes because I never wear socks…

I am proud of these young girls because I, too, regularly run out barefoot in the snow. (To get the mail because after snow storm number 3,000 of the winter I just can’t be bothered to put shoes on, and then mutter curse words the whole time because wet cement is cold.)

forgive me for not looking at any of the march madness posts sooner but HOW IN THE FUCK did indoor plumbing ONLY GET A 12 SEED?

Also Wikipedia says that everything owned by the Learning Company (Cluefinders, Carmen Sandiego) is OS compatible now so they’re definitely out there somewhere.

OMG I had no idea there was a math one! My one and only favorite math computer game was the Cluefinders 4th grade math one set in Ancient Egypt. You had to defeat Set and it was about half math skills and half puzzle-solving. I LOVED IT.

The computer games were THE BEST. We had both “Where in the US...” and “Where in the World...” but mostly played the US one because the other one was fucking hard! (In my defense this was when I was roughly 7-10.)

Knowing the NFL, the rules are probably to protect the players in some way. For example, I imagine the media would be more likely to cover allegations against a player of sexual harassment/abuse/what-have-you if they’re made by someone else who is also employed by a team than by someone who is otherwise entirely…

I still have that entire song/rap memorized. All the stars for you.

Honestly I lay claim to IRL—you know what, I can’t choose just one, I get dibs on them all.

Next thing you know Trump will be approving an actual team of Avengers.

I would be excited about this if it were going to be REAL Star Trek but it’s not because it’s going to be like, the war-focused hell-version antithesis of Star Fleet so YEAH I’m pretty certain that we’re actually in Hell right now and that eventually a demon will pop out and yell “GOTCHA”. Any day now. Any day.

The scarf, the unbuttoned linen shirt, the aggressively barn-like wooden background, the fucking hair, literally each individual element in this photo which comes together in a shockingly unsettling whole.

there’s a lot to unpack just in this one photo

I’m desensitized to it, but that’s entirely because I spent four years living in a country where it’s viewed as an equivalent to ass/asshole in terms of severity, and it’s just as likely to be used to insult men as women. Probably more likely, actually. Relevantly though, I got used to hearing it in an environment…

Today has been a wild fucking ride. The Russians are out there assassinating people again, Nunberg is having a goddamn meltdown on cable news (lol @ the irony of this happening on a live broadcast, his last few hours is enough to fuel a whole book on media, dystopian books, & contemporary history and reality).

You and your sister giving/receiving beauty products to/from each other is exactly like my sister and I. I am way too squicked out about germs to do this with other people though.

Nasyrova was also reportedly wanted for the alleged murder of a woman in Russia and for “preying on” various New York City men. She is said to have been enjoying a “carefree” life in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn.

Haha a Macallan was the second bottle of scotch I ever bought, so obviously I have no complaints with it.
