No Bono. No Boy George. What’s happening here? I’m totally confused. ;-)

This is an issue I just learned about this year. The statistics are eye poppingly horrifying.

Apologies, I’m an old now, so things get blurry. This was on her first record though, wasn’t it?

Somehow, I ended up finding this post while listening to queen latifahs first record. It came out when i was, like, 18? UNITYyyy. If you would have told me then that 30 years later basically nothing would have changed, I wouldn’t have believed you. But here we are.

Yup. My grandmother grew up on a farm and I remember, when I was a kid, all the ladies of the family getting together for canning days on Saturdays.

Solution: in the summer, grill the veggies. In winter, roast them in the oven. Then toss then in the freezer for future use....

Part of me feels like I should keep my mouth shut because comedy requires risk and sometimes those risks aren’t always successful and that’s fine (plus, the post isn’t even directed at me). But another part of me just needs to say how grossly sexist and utterly offensive to women a few parts of this piece are. You…

Ugh. That’s all I’ve got for shit like this anymore.

As an actual single parent, this kind of talk hasn’t ever offended me or anything but, yeah, it’s not the same thing.

Does my Brita filter do anything about that?

Gazpacho? Gazpacho.

Coincidentally enough, I developed my own idea for how to fix this problem! What I do, see, is I take all the fixings and I put them all in a slightly larger tortilla and then wrap it all up so nothing falls out!

Yup. She has an obligation to turn the baby into an adult. The husband, not so much!

My bed has lacked a top sheet for a couple of weeks now, but only because I’ve been too lazy to do the laundry and I had a couple extra clean fitted sheets in the closet (top sheets disappear in my house as mysteriously as socks for some reason. Socks are small, so I get it, but sheets? How do I lose sheets?!?). So…

So what does dismantling white supremacy look like? Or how can we maybe at least make a dent?

I always wanted to draw. So I took a class in college. I tried really hard to draw an egg that kind of looked like an egg. I did. But I couldn’t. So I conceded defeat to drawing and went back to writing bad poetry. At least it didn’t mock me the way that sad not egg looking egg did.

Right? When I thought to add protein powder to my coffee, I felt like I’d just discovered the Grand Unified Theory or something. But it was just all clumpy. So I sadly shrugged, discarded my assumptions about uniform mass distribution in the universe (look what I did there!), and went on with my day....

Feel free! :-)
