I’ve tried to avoid drinking regularly in the past year. Instead, I’ve developed a bad jaw clenching habit. Really don’t recommend that either.

I don’t know. I try to do what little I can, like voting and donating and trying to model kindness and compassion and intellectual curiosity for the members of the next generation who I’m around all day. Other than that, I don’t know. It’s hard not to feel powerless and hopeless some days.

I hate him so much, and I’m so, so tired.

Trump’s also awfully cozy with Erdogan, who I’m sure he admires. I get a knot in my stomach imagining what he would do if he were ever really forced to choose sides here.

I work in a school and just got an email about flu shots being available to staff in the nurse’s office next week. I’ve never gotten one before either, but I will now. A few bucks and a pinch is a small price to pay to help protect the rest of the herd, so to speak.

I’ve never met him, unfortunately, but he certainly seems to be! He’s always really nice to his fans, and I’ve never heard a bad word said about him. He posts a lot of cute/dorky videos to his social media with his wife Persia White (who played Bonnie’s mom on the show), and they’re really adorable together.

I tend to think that people who are really sweet in real life make the best villains on screen (like Joseph Morgan as Klaus from the same show, or Iwan Rheon as Ramsay, or Tom Hiddleston as Loki), but there is definitely a case to be made for evil dicks IRL excelling at playing evil dicks on screen.

I’m not surprised by that in the slightest. I used to watch that show and even as a fan I thought they both seemed like assholes.

Right?!? Everything about this is super disturbing.

I know someone who met PKK fighters and fought alongside YPG/J fighters. He’s a very traditional (and unfortunately sometimes sexist) kind of guy and a Marine. He said the women fought every bit as bravely and ferociously as the men, and he had the utmost respect for them. They’re out there killing Daesh and giving…

The bad news is that lots of people will suffer tremendously and perhaps even die needlessly early due to being poor. Knowing we all end up in the dirt isn’t very comforting when you compare what life is like before we get to that point.

Have you seen the one with the severed elephant tail? Don’t look it up if you haven’t, it’s revolting. I swear to god these two are psychopaths.

Fuck Winston Churchill. That’s all.

👀 Bump.

I tried to explain Gay Icon Babadook to my extremely conservative mother who also hates horror movies. The expression on her face was priceless.

She’s only, you know, the main protagonist of the new trilogy. Why the fuck should she get her own action figures? Little boys don’t want to play with a GIRL toy anyway. Girls have cooties, amirite? What’s that you say? Little girls? Hahahaha don’t be dumb, everyone knows little girls are just a myth.

Half the planet burning, the other half drowning, and the rich motherfuckers keep rich motherfuckering.

I wasn’t crazy about the movie in general, but Tom and Elizabeth Olsen were excellent in it.

No, they are not. Don’t buy the anti-moth propaganda. They may not have as pretty wings as butterflies in most cases, but up close they are way more likely to be cuter. And they are friendlier. Butterflies are rude assholes.

I hate myself for watching that circus to the end. Fuck every last one of those sycophantic, boot-licking, history-revising, bobblehead idiots.
