Agreed 💯. I hope Bey continues to find her own emotional freedom and empowerment, whether she’s Mrs. Carter or not.

Oh honey, the British government isn’t letting this baby die. Why don’t you go and have a lie down and then re-read what you’ve written.

I agree completely. It’s hard. Terribly hard...but if your body can’t keep you alive due to a terminal non curable or treatable disease, then you should not be alive.  

What pisses me off most about President Dipshit inserting himself in this story is that per his proposed healthcare reform, the children suffering like that here at home would be left to die while their parents are saddled with a copious amount of medical debt.

Between this and reading that Trump wants to help baby Charlie but not all the kids that will lose health insurance if the republicans get their way makes me want to rip my hair out.

Oh my goodness, this broke my heart. It’s only been a week, so I really wouldn’t worry about that at all. If your friends can’t be there for you in the immediate aftermath of something like this, then they’re not great friends. I would say don’t worry about them right now. Take care of yourself. If you need to talk…

I don’t have any advice but want to offer you emotional support from afar. I’m sorry you had a terrible thing happen to you. I doubt you’re burdening those who love you and care about your wellbeing. *hugs*

Does anyone have any advice for how to stop feeling like you’ve burdened the people you love after experiencing sexual assault? I can’t be the only one who feels this way. It’s been a week since it happened, and I feel like I’ve just talked myself in circles, bothering everyone around me. I’ve got an appointment…

The little calico looks like my Luna

Today I adopted these badass little girls, so I’m loving the world.

I’m drinking a beautiful (ahem bottle of) Rosé. I recently started a job at a fancy schmancy winery and get free/discounted wine by the buttload, so I’ve been quite content in my new perks. Even if it’s part time....which also works because YAY I started my own business!

I am now being PAID...PAAAAIIID to make art and…

Well, I know I feel safer here in this shining city on the hill, this beacon of freedom, this safe harbor for the wretched and yearning, this symbol that if you work hard you can achieve anything!

I really hope Annie makes it. Sweet dreams are made of this!

There are also qualified people who wouldn’t touch that administration with a ten-foot pole.

That was great! Here’s my unsolicited placenta story:

“President Obama established the Council in 2009"

And I am HERE FOR IT.

As a kid I was told “If something comes out of your body, don’t put it back in! Your body threw it out for a reason.” This was said to keep me from eating boogers, but it can be applied universally. “If it comes out of one end, don’t put it into another.”

Why are people so suspicious of mainstream, accepted medical advice and care but so willing to plunge, unexamined, into unproven homeopathic treatments?
