Totally fucking broken up about this.

Seriously. WTAF, people.

Dangit. Thank you for that information, though. Looks like those seaweed straws might be a more viable option (but only if they don’t actually impart a seaweed taste to the beverage).

Yes, Jeff Smith was my first experience with this as well. I kept his book for a while (I had bought it used anyway) but, then, I tossed it in the recycle bin. Such a shame. I loved his show so much.

I HATE paper straws. There are compostable plastic utensils and straws so why are we going to paper (which are awful) instead of just sticking with the corn-based (or whatever) compostable straws?

I love straws, though. I get grossed out by reusable straws because are they really getting clean inside?

Truly, Madly, Deeply is my favorite movie of all time and I am so happy whenever someone else mentions it. That movie has me ugly crying every single time.

I mean, maybe the water thrower was hoping Tomi would melt, much like the Wicked Witch of the West?

I can’t imagine. The last thing I would want to do is talk to any media about my kid. I would delete my social media, even. Holy shit. I would never, ever say “not my kid” because you just never know. All you can do is hope you have instilled a sense of compassion and empathy for their fellow humans as well as limit…

Welp, I’m never eating grapes again.

Can Starbucks clarify further and have those MLM shilling moms who only order venti ice waters kicked the fuck out so someone can actually use that table? No, I don’t want your doTerra bullshit.

If this is, indeed, part of the #MeToo hashtag scope, well, the ‘90s (and before, presumably - I was too young much before that) were a total clusterfuck. I’ve had dates like Grace and Aziz’s. I’ve had worse. On one hand, men absolutely need to be called out for their shit behavior. On the other hand, it’s not like he…

He does! His name is Henry.

This ... makes me feel ... things.

Say it louder for the people in the back!!!!!

Seattle City Council is a fucking joke.

I realize I am an extremely cynical person, but I would like to know how much the CEO and top management of SHARE/WHEEL earns. Because I am pretty sure that, despite their outward faces, they are not likely to really want to solve the homeless crisis because then their (potentially huge) salaries will go away. The…

Yes. Yes, yes, yes to all of that.

My daughter will text me sensitive subjects as well. Sometimes we end up talking about it but, other times, it seems completely fine to keep it on the phone.

I remember writing letters to my parents when I was too annoyed/overwhelmed/anxious to talk to them about something.

Just want to reply to all you parents of 3 year old terrorists out there: it does get better. I promise.

But then they hit 12.

This is buried pretty far down and I think some people are so far down their own rabbit holes and invested in their points of view but, while I was super skeptical about what you were saying you then said two amazing things:

“I won’t make speeches about LGBT issues, for instance, because those within that community…
