That’s still no excuse to try and impress Paul Ryan!

It makes me genuinely happy when people respond to a pet-related post by posting photos of their own pets. Your dogs are adorable. 

I hope that sweet baby is reunited with his family. I feel terrible for them; I can’t imagine not knowing where my sweet babies are and if they’re safe.

These are my sweet bees:

“Your Honor, would you like me to demonstrate on you why this does not work?”

I live on the other side of the country from mine, which helps. But I had to unsubscribe from his facebook posts. His wife unfriended me years ago after we got into a big fight about refugees.

I remember a long time ago several of the designers actually making their models cry because they were plus sized. If you can’t dress a plus size woman, then you shouldn’t be a designer- that’s on you. Also, Siriano is the best thing to come out of Project Runway- (ok aside from Tin Gunn and Santinos hilarious

Also a childfree non-Republican (I’m an Independent). My father and I can’t go anywhere near politics or tempers will rise to apocalyptic levels.

Holy shit that is definitely not something bad you ‘did to’ your parents and I want to give you 7 million hugs.

Replace stolen guns with computers/consoles, and add in destroying a toddler’s room, two dented car doors, and dozens of dick drawings all on the house and driveway and you have my brother’s 20 person turned 100+ high school rager...

And in a movie-esq ending- he was woken up the next morning- among piles of passed

This is a large part of the reason why Oprah herself is a non-starter for me as a political candidate. All of these grifters she’s unleashed on the public don’t give me confidence in her ability to surround herself with the right people.

If she runs as a Democrat with Deepak Chopra, we could elect two blue woo guru.

Throwing away their chance to make A Prison Christmas.

Nope. That would require that I watch the VMAs and have any idea who Jordan Sparks is.

I am a very firm believer in “never meet your heroes”, and that I can enjoy performances and art created by imperfect people who are probably not very moral or good, despite their public image.  I also think people who stan for celebrities they have never met is weird.

He was blaming the parents for selling their daughters to him, which would be undoubtedly horrible if true, but he doesn’t seem to realize that means he was trying to buy them.

If by “over-stimulated by technology,” they mean “much more aware of the horrifying realities of pregnancy, motherhood, and the future of the planet thanks to the power of the internet,” then yeah, pretty much.
