I love this. If you’re a Broad City fan there’s a great clip from (I think) when they were just a youtube show where Ilana HISSES loudly at a man harassing them and I’ve adopted that in a pinch. I was raised Catholic and while my parents taught us that sexual harassment was wrong and that if anyone touched us in a way…

Yah I got a kick out of that like, I want the far-left anti-fracking version of Kamala that Pence was selling, but it was fracking vs. preexisting conditions...guess which one is more important to everyday people. Repeatedly tossing her something that she could just bat down with a “nope Biden won’t do that” was…

I mean it seems like if they're a) sleeping through everything and b) the intruder isn't yet interested in their floor then best to leave well enough alone and not alert either party to the presence of the other...the husband gradually drawing the intruder away from everyone else is pretty heroic.

Im sorry that happened to you - a friend went through something similar and it was depressing and disappointing to hear nearly all the most vocal “I support women” female friends of hers sided with the shitty, stalkery ex. Perhaps unsurprisingly when COVID rolled around the same group of vocal, alleged socially…

I saw some speculation that the steroid he's on could be causing delirium and euphoria which could also explain some of it on top of the rest of his bs "deal making" skills

A couple years ago my dad was reading something long and boring out loud to us, so my mom and I started making faces at each other across the table which made him ornery, which made us make more faces, until I BURST out laughing and subsequently laughed so hard I began to pee. Regrettably, I was wearing a dress and…

It honestly still hurts my heart that we could have had Lizzie as president, but I admire the way she didn't miss a beat and got right back to kicking ass in the senate. I hate dogs and golden retrievers most of all, but I've made room in my heart for Bailey re: the burrito incident.

I don't know how you can see someone grieving and call it thirsty and fake? Non-celebrity friends of mine had a stillbirth recently and shared the story and images of their child because it was healing for them to share. They also wanted to help remove some of the shame and stigma that many couples face talking about…

I swear all the hot take, “rigged by the man,” “I’m taking my ball and going home,” pseudo-progressives don’t actually know shit about politics/government and spend non-election years doing diddly squat, resurfacing at times like this to scream about how the system isn’t fair. If you think the system is unfair, work…

God has turned his eye from us...

Yah my quasi in-laws (mostly quasi FIL) are deep in the Evangelical cash con but they also (via the church) basically participate in a mutual aid system (in their case, combined fear of government plus church duty equals give time, money and resources to other parishioners). It makes me ABSOLUTELY BONKERS more than…

I can’t watch because even if Joe does phenomenally, I’m still stuck listening to Trump spewing hateful, senseless, dangerous and cruel bs into the void. Like you, my vote is already decided (was it even a decision???), I do not want to watch this debate knowing that even in the best case scenario it will be 50% wild…

Your fiance has told you he cares more about hypothetical financial loss than your actively endangered rights and well-being. If you have the means to, make him your ex-fiance. If you don’t have the means to right now, start making a plan and don’t follow through with the wedding in the meantime. You (and your…

We all gathered at a friends’ apartment to watch returns/celebrate and we literally never went back to his place after that...like we still hung out with him but no one ever set foot in that apartment again. A cursed place.

Honestly I always wondered about parent-teachers even when school was in person. Teaching is hard work, and it’s a lot of emotional labor, at the end of the day I was wiped and could not imagine going home to continue all that with my own kids.

I actually love her big features! I think her face is far more captivating with its quirks than all the model’s botoxed and plastic surgeried into The Face Singularity. 

Can you elaborate what you mean about the “penchant for cells of the specific immune system” comment? Your post was super informational but this piece went over my head.

I’m not sure where you're at but select Walgreens have been testing for free and I know the number expanded recently - the last two times we've gone results have come back in 24-48 hours. Fingers crossed for you, been a long time lurker and only recently started posting but I've been following your posts!

Oh my god same, they were all so good except that peach one that tastes like chalky vomit 😭

There was an NYT piece looking into this that showed tumeric benefits are probably just a placebo (same with people who swear by kombucha etc) but if it helps you it doesn't matter how it works and you should carry on. Plenty of my own health habits fall in this category but I figure why mess with a good thing? If…
