Yikes! Sending an internet hug that's terrifying. At least now you know you're a kick-ass driver in the scariest possible situation??? So glad you and the wee one are ok.

Once I came home earlier than my roommate expected and found him depression eating pickles dipped straight in the mayo jar after a long day of work.

I audibly gasped multiple times while reading this.

I survived college on something similar, which I call “rice surprise.” It’s brown rice with shredded cheddar, diced up lunch meat and salsa. If it’s rice surprise dinner, I put a fried egg on top.

My house has been through two pounds of m&ms in two days

I envy you. I'm a good cook but somehow the egg muffins trend evaded me. I tried multiple times and always ended up with sad, rubbery things. THEY LOOK AMAZING AND CONVENIENT. Bon appetit.

The only non-sexist argument I’ve seen for men being the primary hunters is that women are inherently more valuable. They posit women of child-bearing age would have less dangerous responsibilities because society would collapse without them, whereas sperm is...nothing special. That doesn’t mean, however, that women…

As a former (and present) Warren supporter, I feel this intimately. The number of people I talked to who said they wanted to vote for her as their first choice, but we're voting for Biden because he seemed more likely to win nearly drove me insane. At the end of the day I guess the consistent desire to vote for a…

I have a picture from election night 2016 of a friend laughing early in the evening and then the same friend, in the same position, with her hand over her gaping mouth as she realized what was happening. We literally never hung out in that apartment again, cursed forever.

Victim of the federal hiring freeze! Sure my 401k looked great for a bit but a) now it's in the tank and b) I would not trade human lives/children in cages/etc etc etc for a robust 401k...

Thanks for getting out there year after year! I always find myself most dismayed by the "progressive" folks I know who scream every election season about how the system is broken (it is), but don't do anything in the intervening years to make it better (for example, rank choice voting is on the ballot in my state this…

I got good mileage out of my Warren sign, I was able to cut out construction paper letters to edit it into a Bernie sign and then a Biden sign and then I used the back for a defund the police sign. I think she would approve.

Someone in my neighborhood has a Martin O'Malley sticker on their car and every time I remember he existed all over again.

M guilty pleasure is advice columns, and I read a letter similar to yours this week where the response was “luckily, breaking up doesn’t require a unanimous vote.” You’re not an asshole for putting yourself first and being unwilling to keep picking up the slack for this turd. The fact that he’s realized he doesn’t…

Apparently Fleming got on board once he saw the tapes and, to be fair, Connery WAS a thuggish Scot from a deeply working class background they had to try and teach “upper class” mannerisms to. Of course that doesn’t change anything about the womanizing and misogyny...

Y I K E S!!! If it makes you feel mildly better, I once accepted an invite from a stranger on the metro (WHY? I was new in town with no friends) to what he said was a regular Star Trek viewing party. Also conveniently left out watching Star Trek was the warm up for a regular sex party. Le sigh. I did go back a few…

Wait honestly I'm obsessed with this look. I mean not on her but...yes.

Same, hate her and the skinny belt but I'd love to wear that like a big, free flowing mumu.

We were spoiled by Michelle and her fabulous style, but I also think the sheer tacky evilness all these women radiate makes them look even worse. Like Michelle is so delightful she could probably even pull off that Haunted Marionette outfit Kellyanne wore to the inauguration. That said, I hate myself but I love…

Everyone should be treated to my previous polling location - an Italian heritage club. You'd vote while a bunch of ancient dudes sat in the adjoining room drinking and yelling to each other in Italian (and I usually voted before work so I can only imagine how much more fun it got as the day wore on).
