So, my brother needed congressional approval to re-enlist in the Army. He spent MONTHS getting glowing recommendations from all of his superior officers, all of his college professors and every professional boss he had since leaving the Army. He wrote a very extensive, detailed letter explaining the situation and…

If your community is being absolutely wracked by an opioid epidemic

I’ve just watched a lot of Parks and Rec in general. Leslie Knope soothes me.

Right? I hate how every response is now, “But Pence is SOOOO much worse!” No. He’s not. He’ll follow the law and put some bullshit in place that President Elizabeth Warren will undo. With Trump, we might not even have a country to screw up anymore.

I’m 34 and I teach high school seniors and EEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

RIGHT? Can a girl just get a regular old republican instead? I promise to just be plain disappointed instead of devastated.

It’s amazing how consistently the people who rail against “safe spaces” scream the loudest about how unfair it is that entire world isn’t safe for them

I had 2 people unfriend me because I said I would never stop standing up for my (inner-city) students.

I remain friends with them so I can report all the racist memes they like as hate speech. I swear they don’t know it shows up for all to see.

Johnny Bananas from MTVs The Challenge liked my IG picture from when I went to see Hamilton and it was weirdly awesome and made me laugh.

I teach high school government in Baltimore. I can tell you my 17 year olds are FIRED UP for 2018 midterm elections. Which is something I never thought I would say.

DOESNT HE HAVE ANOTHER SON?!? You can’t be proud of a child?

Yes. This is my dad, who has never been in a life and death situation in his 60 years on earth, but will swear up and down that he could Chuck Norris the shit out of some intruder/terrorist at any given moment.

I saw him in In The Heights as Benny several years ago. Had no idea who he was and was completely blown away.

I hate it so much. In college I was really super lamely into Counting Crows, but I know nothing about them personally. I didn’t want to learn about their lives, I just wanted them to release another album.

Honestly, I’ve thought about it a lot the past 8 years, since all the Dixie Chicks said was that they were ashamed of GWB and were crucified by the same people who call Obama a monkey muslim traitor.

Yep. He’s on MASN for the Orioles.

I came here to say this. I’m an adrenaline junkie as well...skydiving, rollercoasters, basically anything. I don’t like horror movies. Mostly because I’m a counselor and I know people who’ve been traumatized and they make me upset. That doesn’t mean I’m less “brave.” It’s not brave to watch a movie.
