"I AM NOT A THIEF, I AM JUST A FUCKING PSYCHOPATH. DON'T YOU FORGET THAT! I WILL BEAT YOUR ASS BLIND BUT I WOULD NEVER STEAL A PURSE!!"

A mansplainer who insisted he wasn't a Wilson apologist showed up to my Facebook page last night to say that it's okay Wilson wasn't indicted because there is no "true" evidence, like a video, and then asserted that if cops had cameras it would solve everything because, obviously, "you can't deny video evidence."

Even after living in LA for nearly a decade, the city's phobia of rain remains bizarre to me. I mean, I get parts of it—yes, the road becomes unbelievably slippery when it's the first rain after months or years without, and yes, car accidents seem to double or triple anytime so much as a single drop of water falls…

Yea it never occurred to me either, until I was pregnant when my first was 9 months old. We were like, oh shit, but it's awesome because we got our lives back real quick like, and I don't even remember the first year or two of it. You are delightful as well and best of luck!

We started on the long term business visa. So you have to have a certain amount of $ and a business to purchase or start.

Then, the next visa, you have to meet certain standards in your business. You have 3 yrs to build your business to this standard.

Well, in between the first visa, but before we could apply for the…

Be like, "Oh, duh, your Habsburg jaw made that obvious."

That's where we lived. I had to come back. If we didn't have to, we would totally still be there. NZ, you broke my heart.

My best friends and I were literally discussing moving out of the US minutes ago. I was going to suggest Canada, but then one of them said Paris and I was like ooh, France has lots of cheese. SOLD.

My old man cat is 22. He spends his time sleeping, biting me and getting fussed over.

I wanted to move to Norway. My husband is part Norwegian. I told him when Bush was " elected " that our country was ruined and we needed to leave. But my husband did not want to and yeah basically you have to be independently wealthy. He admits now that we should have left. I have not given up though, maybe we can…

It gets better- once they get bigger, you can do preschool and then hire someone just for afternoons. But that's the thing— it's an issue that never really goes away, it's just that you only hear about infant care, little kids, etc. School gets out at 3pm if you're lucky! Let's not even talk about summer.

I tried to leave, it's really hard.

That's exactly it— I never would have considered daycare for that reason. Also, nanny costs don't double with a second kid, and nannies will come when your kid is sick, which mine were all the dang time once they were toddlers. Full time nanny is a good $700/week or more, plus taxes, assuming you want someone who…

Here are two of my munchkins and yes they will live forever. (And yes the cat is cleaning her because he's a weirdo and weirdos live forever. This is science.)

I'd love that, but normal friends that go to work just like the rest of us- not people shooting at each other, or organizing a drug deal. Guess what, Hollywood: there are blue collar/professional law-abiding blacks, living in beautiful neighborhoods, who just want to accomplish the long lost American dream like…

My dogs are rescues too. Not a great picture but it's one of the few where they are (1) together and (2) not chewing on each other. They are, from left to right, Peru and India.

this is my miniature black poodle, L.B. I was 5 years old when we got him, and my sister and I named him "Little Brother" because he is our little brother, and we really liked Mulan and her dog was named Little Brother. L.B. is now 15 years young. He enjoys daily walks and runs around the dog park, and inspires…

This is my Lucy:

It's awesome that his response to the SNL Black woman shortage was to get one hired... Instead of just insinuating that maybe Black women weren't ready yet.
