I have most definitely done things like that. I tend to apologize to inanimate objects when I bump into them, too. Though it’s not always sorrys....once my car was dinging to remind me to turn off my inside lights and I actually said “oh, thank you” and turned off the light.

I thanked my car.

YEH where the fuck is our winter? It’s been unseasonably warm and it’s mid fucking December. I want snow, damnit.

You say that but you probably haven’t considered every issue. For instance, would it be okay to race them?

3) the martian is not a comedy so fuck right off with that

I’m invoking Pinkham’s Law here (RIP Kitchenette), but the cookie gun is actually a semi-useful thing for making awesome spritz cookies if you’re into that kind of thing, which my mom was. Her cookies were delicious and cute.

Honest moment:

I bought (deeply discounted) cashmere lounge-y pants last year and it is like having the lower half of your body hugged by The Supreme Being.

THEN MY BOYFRIEND WASHED THEM IN HOT WATER. AT THE LAUNDROMAT.

No lie, went to The Shops at Columbus Circle this past weekend and bought several of the cookie cutters with handles at W-S. I thought it was ingenious.

We recently had a huge (multi-year, cross-Canada) commission on the problems of First Nations groups, especially as relates to the residential school system (a horror in itself) and the stories that came out of it were brutal. Heart-wrenching.

Definitely a good first step, showing that the PM actually cares. Because before it literally just felt like no one did, and it breeds that sort of contemptuous energy you described. Gotta make change to change, right? It’s gonna be a long, hard one but I think it can be done (or at least lessened....and even lessened…

It’s obviously a good first step but I have a sneaking suspicion that what we’ll eventually land on is that the three major factors playing into the disparity are the relative poverty in First Nations communities, the ingrained racism in Canadian society(and particularly law enforcement) and the relative isolation of…

What is this weird and unfamiliar emotion I am feeling all of a sudden?

I’M A GROWN UP AND I CAN SAY WHAT I WANT #ADULTING

Oh FFS.

I feel exactly the same. And even if they vote Republican but say they are pro-choice or pro-gay rights or whatever, you’re still voting for the asshole. It makes you worse, in my opinion... “socially liberal and fiscally conservative” is just another way to say “I’m a selfish piece of shit.” You know women and…

Not only that, but one of the parties seems distinctly evil nowadays. It would not be the word “Republican,” that scared me so much as the idea that my kid would be committing to a relationship with someone who is (or at least votes for leaders who are) racist, xenophobic, misogynist, homo and transphobic, interested…

I love the typo hare to the throne, like I’m now picturing them raising a bunny as their child and insisting everyone act like it’s a real baby. “Umm his name is Saint, have some respect”

Why is fragile in quotes? It is fragile, and its a freakin’ big deal what the diseases un-quarantined pets could do to endemic wildlife.

I can buy that the mom is frustrated, but I think taking it to Dear Prudie and bringing in threats is a bit past the line. They’ll probably both learn to develop a relationship that works for the two of them after the daughter gets used to living on her own. I’m guessing it will go more smoothly if the mom backs off a…

Haven’t seen a 21 grams reference in a long time, Dr. Jia MacDougal. +1

Never understood this whole trend *at all*.
