This seems like a good place to leave this photo of young Ricky Gervais:

On the plus side, I think his output in recent years proves just how much of a comedic genius Stephen Merchant is.

WE ARE ALL TIG NOTARO.

You’re right of course, but the tinfoil hat set won’t believe. I'm seeing a lot of mental gymnastics being performed by Chipotle worshippers, even in these comments.

The only people I know who like it are white hipsters...

I worked at a local section 8 housing coalition that received $5-6million from the Feds each year. I had a long, stupid title, but basically my job was to connect the stories of our (mostly previously homeless) clients to the greater community, to help engage people in the nonprofit effort to help the problem of…

I’m reading the sns to fill the time between contractions now. I think this might be the real thing—they certainly feel different from the fairly painful braxton-hicks I'd been having. So far I’ve been relaxing into the pain, if that makes sense, and it’s been okay. We shall see.

I have 2 kids and each experience was positive, but hard.

I FOUND OUT ON THURSDAY THAT MY FINAL DISSERTATION EDITS WERE APPROVED AND I AM NOW DR. HURRIKATE

My poor puppy hurt his eye this week (grit under the eyelid, according to the vet) and had to wear a cone for 48 hours. He was very unhappy but stupidly cute, so I am making everyone look at pics (sorry to GTers who already got spammed!). Buster is the darling boy in the cone; Sophie, my other dog, is the adorable…

I adopted a cat today from the Humane Society!!!!!

Guys. Mini Pie started Tiny Ballet this morning and it is the GODDAMN CUTEST THING EVER AHHHH.

*BRAG ALERT*

Guys, big news this week with my kid. The other night I felt like poo after they had dance class, so I decided to take the kids to McDonald’s to avoid cooking and give myself a chance to just sit (that sound you hear in the distance is one of Food Babe’s neck veins exploding).

As a social worker, FUCK THESE GUYS.

He's an endocrinologist, whom I see for thyroid disorder. I'm going on memory from my first appointment several years ago, but I'm fairly certain that this was one of the studies he showed me then.

Chocolate milk is delicious and essentially just cold hot chocolate. I will drink it for the rest of my life.

Counterpoint: Milk is delicious.
