Thank you — I literally went to the next person, a writer I’d met while on artist retreat. She’d been lovebombing me for months. She offered to rent a guest room and welcomed my cats. When I refused sex she dropped the mask and the monster underneath was terrifying. I got my own place asap.

Thank you, you are very sweet, I always enjoy your comments. It’s funny, I’m writing an autobiography, and this isn’t even in it, it seemed like the least of many horrible events.

Does anyone else confuse this guy with Sarah Silverman’s Man? I can’t keep them straight. Yes, learning names helps. What, like, Sheen and...? I’m already confused, winning...?

Def Carrot-Top’s daughter on the right...

Where are you finding this higher quality material? I’m just getting cloudy cubic zirconia.

You know who programmed me to hate and kill all men?

This Uber report supports the reconciliation rumors. Cutting those side lines always includes at least one heated discussion in a cab.

I’m getting this tattooed on my wrist today at 2pm.

You can take the boy out of the carnival...
