I'm doing this next year:

My cat has not left my side since I curled up in bed to mourn. I take this as a sign of solidarity and that she is also upset by the news. Or maybe she just discovered she has a vet appointment tomorrow and wants to butter me up so I don't take her?

Do people really still have civics classes? That sounds like something from the fifties, like Shop and Home Ec. However, even if I did learn this in civics class, it would have been irrelevant as laws surrounding voting are constantly changing and differ from state to state, so knowing what you have to do in your…

at this point I am just of the belief that our country is getting what it deserves. if we sit in apathy nothing is going to ever change. I'm young and privileged and was so enthusiastic about voting, but it felt like most people I know barely paid any attention, and frankly it disgusts me. we are the generation of…

And Rick Scott won Florida. I have stuck by my state through all of the batshit insane stuff that goes down here, but this…this is unforgivable. I lost a piece of my innocence tonight.

I worked the Obama campaign voter hotlines for all the primaries in 2008 and it was astounding how many people did not understand how voting worked—so many people assumed that because they were registered in one state, they were automatically registered in their new state or that they could still go somewhere to vote…

My own figure «ballooned» when I had a burnout a couple years ago. Someone from my own family made really mean comments about my weight and I had to cut them out of my life in order to get better. This came after years of being teased, joked about, demeaned and given second-class citizen treatment by this person, my…

Nobody cares about your boner, dumbass.

Men literally think they own us, as a sex.

as someone who has gained weight and went from being openly ogled to basically ignored, i totally get being over it. also, that commenter sucks, i still don't understand how being a fan of someone's work (though i guess he was only a fan of her figure?) makes you feel entitled to controlling someone's physical…

I live in Traverse City- the town where Madonna's brother is a well known homeless man and her family owns a vineyard. He is well known to people in town and clearly has mental issues. This is an old story here because the family has actually tried to help him so many times and every time he goes off again he attacks…

I hate to white knight Madge, but, having been through a similar situation, sometimes you just have to stop trying to fix someone's life. That doesn't mean you stop caring.

Heyyyy there, Chris Hardwick.

Of course he loves cats. Cats are life.

I thought Jon Hamm just had a snake. ;)

He is judging me right now for my choice of stretchy yoga pants with the holes, but you know what? I judge him right back when he decides to lick his butt-hole in front of company.

We're TRYING! We really are! But the old white dudes in the rest of the state are outvoting us!!!

Our early morning newscasters are basically the best. I think it was WAVE3 where they made giant versions of everyone's face and kept poking them at the early morning weather woman? And it was definitely WAVE where they kept playing creepy circus music mid-weather report because it creeped out the meteorologist —…

I love hearing from people who live in small(er) areas (not LA, NY, Chicago, etc) saying how much they like the people who live where they're from. I'm always more interested in smaller big cities than I am large metropolitan areas. Thank you for now turning me on to Louisville!
