It’s time. Let’s see how this goes...discuss below!

Update from today: When I got to the office this morning, JA had left a Starbucks card on my desk. When I saw her, I asked, “Thank you, but what is the occasion?”

I don’t know if AITA is really the right framework, because it’s more like AITUP (Am I The Unreasonable Person). Also, whether or not I am an Asshole or The Unreasonable Person, I do know that I am a verbose person and so I appreciate anyone who reads any of this, much less the whole thing! IT IS WAY TOO LONG. But I…

Has anybody ever successfully used any of the many websites offering background-check type information or a report for a fee? Without being too doxxy, a person in a friend’s life is bad news, many people including me know this, and I really want to know if this person has any arrests or criminal charges or restraining…

Good evening all! I’ve been back at work two days and am so ready for the weekend anyway. Today was unexpectedly crazy busy and even though I have to work this weekend, so glad to be finally home having dinner and a lovely drink.

Jill Wine-Banks was a member of the Watergate prosecution team and she now comments on cable news. Over the past year and a half, I have really grown to like Jill as a pundit and, of course, her pins. She wears a pin or brooch with a message almost every time. Tonight #JillsPin is a domino.

I know there are some experienced instant potters here! I got one and am overwhelmed trying to figure out recipes online. I wanted to try it out for dinner tonight. I have frozen chicken breasts, rice (white or brown basmati), and a bag of frozen peas and carrots. I wanted to make these ingredients go into the instant…

Let’s discuss any election news as we learn it and anything else.

Anyone else watching Aggretsuko on Netflix? I was on the lookout for something easy with short episodes that I could watch while doing stuff around the house today and starting a long-postponed knitting project.

On top of everything else on our radars, I’m hoping that this doesn’t fall through the cracks.

Multiple outlets now reporting Mueller indictments have started and someone might get taken into custody MONDAY. 

Want to make sure this is as widely seen as possible. If you have Senators to call, please do.

It’s Comey Day! Please let this be the beginning (or the middle?) of the end for Dolt 45.

From WaPo:

Folks, are you all seeing this??

Who can recommend the best, super neutral vodka to me? I am trying to re-create a Bloody Mary that was made with Forge One (Tennessee) vodka. I couldn’t taste the vodka AT ALL and it was amazing. Normally I am really sensitive about tasting the alcohol too much, even in mixed drinks. But I can’t get Forge One in…

I can’t believe it. Trump is about to speak on MSNBC. Why call to concede? I am sure she made a very careful decision, but I can’t believe this.

I’m looking for recommendations for a violet/purple shampoo to tone down brassiness for occasional use. A couple of years ago I switched to Wen and it really helped my dry, curly hair—I credit it with my being able to grow my hair long (to my waist) without it all breaking or getting so tangled that tangles would have…

I just finished The Girl on the Train. I loved it. I’ve also read Gone Girl and loved that too. I thought about trying one of Gillian Flynn’s other books but (1) can’t tell if they are just a smidge TOO dark/unpleasant, (2) I want one where I can buy the Kindle version and as a result be able to buy the Audible for a…
