My only hope is that being so publicly rejected by the administration might force CNN to actually do real journalism.

What has gotten me fed up over the last year is just the sum total of the messages. Racism is just one of the progressive causes, but it pretty much exists for all of them: “Racism is the worst sin ever. But if a white person is too upset over racism and tries to actively change it, they are hijacking the movement. …

It looks like a giant boob. That’s what he is saying.

The fact that these memos exist, that Trump was recently briefed on them, and that they have been circulating amongst intelligence agencies since this summer has been confirmed by multiple mainstream news agencies. Others, like CNN, have read the memos but chosen not to publish them. They confirm that Buzzfeed has…

For some reason I have no problem teaching my little girl what a vagina is, but I haaaate the term vulva for some reason. I think it was my experience at age 12-13 babysitting for a pair of psychiatrists way back in the day that were really into teaching their little kids vulva and other anatomically correct terms. …

I don’t understand her eyebrows. They look clearly like they have been waxed off and drawn on higher, yet the look natural, yet still oddly high in that old photo.

Yeah, my daughter got sick, so our out-of-town friends, my husband and son are at a party. I was like, “Oh, no. I have to stay at home and watch a movie and drink a beer. So sad.”

Well, if we are going to get super technical here, stockings date back hundreds and hundreds of years, and for most of those were more sock-like material. Nylon came about and therefore “nylons” could be any hosiery. However, as a woman I can say that on a daily basis almost everyone wore pantyhose in the 80s and…

Leggings are comfortable. Jeans are comfortable. Skinny jeans are both stiff and tight and sometimes very uncomfortable. Leggings however are a bit cold in the Vermont weather and there aren’t a lot of sexy high boots without heels and with good, grippy soles to deal with the ice.

Okay, yes, stocking are the same as thigh highs or knee highs. Nylons however are the same as pantyhose.

Depression is such a mindfuck. It tells you lies about your own worth. A couple of months after starting medication, I wonder exactly how happy “normal” people are. Is it possible that people don’t go through their day thinking they are inherently useless and worthless? I feel marginally better and even that much…

Me too! The line about hope at the end suddenly was suddenly painful.

But you have to be totally devoted to the skinny jean or leggings look. Normal pants don’t fit under those boots. Who am I kidding though. I live in Vermont, work from home, and dress like a lumberjack.

Pantyhose. That’s what I call them although I haven’t worn them in 10 years.

Here is a good discussion of the original interpretation as basically meaning crimes of office, http://www.crf-usa.org/impeachment/high-crimes-and-misdemeanors.html, which is what I was referring to. But Congress could pretty much shoehorn anything they want into that since they are in control of the process.

I know the definition issue came up with Bill Clinton, but the original meaning of “high crimes” the Founders used didn’t mean extra bad crimes, but crimes specifically related to politicians and rulers. So, if Trump is coming from business, and not political office, I’m not sure how he could actually commit that…

I think only illegal things he does while in office are impeachable. Furthermore, those crimes have to be related to “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors”, which are specifically crimes related to abuse of office.

Yep. One of my favorite cassettes from 5th and 6th grade. I still have it and still sometimes listen to it. Maybe I should get it on mp3 before it dies...

Sure, it’s not called “The Problem with White People”, but I am shocked with how many fellow progressives think there is no issue here. Just like there is a difference between a course called “The Problem with Black People” and “The Problem with Blackness” but both are needlessly negative course titles for a course…

Not just you. Whenever I see I picture of her with no/little makeup I am shocked how normal and pretty she is. With her caked on foundation and crazy eyebrows she just looks like uncanny valley between human and doll.
