Ah. Holy shit, I did not know the requirement was weird like that. Thankfully everybody responding to me here does.

Except Duckworth was not born in the US. I was really hopeful for her candidacy for president until I remembered the must-be-born-in-the-USA part. She’ll be a great Senator though.

Hopefully they can get Rebel Wilson, she’s worked with Banks before, is funny, has the body, and is pretty famous. Dunno if she’d do tv, but it’s worth an ask.

Commentception.

“Democrats always bend over for it,” 

Wtf? That is absurd!

Oh gosh, that is adorable.

I love seeing Santas out and about in real life. One year I saw one on the train and I couldn’t stop smiling. He was probably just a normal dude, but it was December and he had to know that he totally looked like Santa. I felt like such a kid.

Oooh now I see what you mean.

Yes, of course. He’ll be the only one to fix North Korea! The only one. /s

I’m confused by this:

Oh I’m sure banned book week is going to be interesting in 2017.

Episode 5 is why I cry reading about Dewey the library cat. Who the hell stuffs a kitten in an outside bookdrop over a weekend in the winter? One of those is really bad enough. *sigh* Our libraries are being vandalized with swastikas and Trump graffiti now.

I would buy these. For everyone.

OH NO!!! I’m laughing so hard that I only make clicking sounds.

The Pope! Yeah, I had a breakdown way back when the pope died because my grandmother who is really religious came crying to me that “Papa died.” I thought she meant my papa, her husband. I was so angry when I realized what really happened (hours later), and my grandmother thought it was so funny She tells this story…

Why do they make it so hard?

Hugs, if you want them.

Can you get a hat that has a strap under the chin? Preferably one that has snaps or something hard for the kid to remove? I don’t have children so I don’t know if this is safe, but I think I had one when I was a baby. As for gloves, tucking them into the sleeves (instead of over the sleeves) helps keep mine up, maybe…

Ugh, I’m so sorry. I got the heebie jeebies just reading your account. I can only tell you that when people try to touch me, especially people that I know (strangely enough) I squeeze up my body, back away, make a scared sneer face with big eyes, gasp, and sometimes shudder. Like this is what my body wants to do…
