I’m still haunted by this promo from her early days, teasing, “Whether you arrange your toilet paper over or under could change your life —find out how on the next Oprah.” And I never did see that Oprah. Sometimes I ask myself if it was all a Dream, bc why would Oprah do a show about that. But then I feel the empty…

Yours are pac-man, these are more “missing piece” by Shel Silverstein, so grease my knees and fleece my bees!

Also, people call them “malteds”?

Yeah, its not something that I go for every week, let me be clear. But once in awhile, I hear the siren’s call to the golden arches. Then I bury the drive thru bag at the bottom of the trash so my husband won’t know.

“I think not having the estate tax recognizes the people that are investing,” Grassley told the Register, “as opposed to those that are just spending every darn penny they have, whether it’s on booze or women or movies.”

I enjoy a double cheeseburger from there once a year-and when I was pregnant, I couldn’t get enough of those Mcnuggets. And yes, I eat it alone because I feel deep shame.

Yeah, I could eat that in one sitting. I’d feel terrible, but I could, or at least I could for the equivalent of good tasting food. He absolutely plows through that.

“Let Trump be Trump.”

I, for one, would like to know where all these people spending money on “women” are, and how I can get them to spend money on me.

Ah, of the Newport Shitfuckers?

I’m not sure Chuck understands how the economy works. When you spend money on booze, women, and movies, it tends to get spent again, often quickly, by people that have jobs in booze, women, and movies, then again, then again. This is actually good!

Those goddamn evil, awful... moviegoers... ruining this once-great country. I long for the halcyon days before awful vices like... film.

You have to understand the man Trump, though. He’s gotten out of so much, so many things, so often before. It’s ludicrous how often bloviating, threats, influence, friends, frienemies, or sheer dumb luck have gotten him out of the worst of trouble time and time again (read The Making of Donald Trump by David Cay…

Yeah, I’ve been here since the foundation and I’ve been a commenter for years - I’ve learned a lot from the people here, who are by and large the most insightful, accepting and educated group of commenters you’ll ever meet online. But to the writing staff I think we’re supposed to be an echo chamber of yes people,…

You’re all invited to the party I’m throwing when Mueller indicts Jared Kushner and Donny, Jr.

I can’t wait to Mueller gets hold of Trump’s taxes.

My adoption of my daughter became official this past Thursday. My husband adopted her, too. It was pretty fucking awesome. I worked so hard to get her back. So many years. Feels good as hell, y’all.

I coached a bunch of middle schoolers at a robotics competition today. Seeing all those kids giving up a Saturday for science and engineering makes me optimistic for the future.

One year at Thanksgiving I was watching TV with my sister and her then-girlfriend. I stopped on Forrest Gump and made some dismissive comment. My sister asked me why. I derisively said, “Ugh, it’s self-congratulatory Boomer nostalgia porn.”
