Most men have not made much progress, I fear, and remain oblivious about the amount of invisible labor that women do to keep homes and workplaces running smoothly, or the amount that gets foisted upon them unwillingly. A few years ago I was teaching at a university and because of when I taught, I was often the first…

That was far worse than I thought it was going to be, jesus christ on a cracker. Who even calls themselves their child’s boyfriend? Even in bizarro world jest? What the actual fuck? 

Not only that, but for what other crime is the victim’s DNA collected and entered into a database? None. Maybe the rare assault. If you allow rape victims’ DNA to be part of the criminal database, you’re creating an unequal system wherein being the victim of one specific crime gets you entered into the database, but…

I have foot issues that make going shoeless physically painful.  Floors are meant to be walked on. 

Recall those days when a fight over spelling “potato” ended a political career?

I wasn’t allowed to link to this on Friday, but now that I am no longer employed by G/O Media, I can post this as a “civilian”. This is my new baby, and you can subscribe FOR FREE! (The majority of the content will be free, but the incredibly NSFW stuff will be behind a paywall.)

Shelter Cat Update!

The gun rules. America loses.

Yes, tearing down my entire gender but making me the “exception” is totally going to get you in my pants.

Maintenance Phase is just the absolute best podcast, and I love their rapport so much. The way they continuously blow my mind with how we’ve been programmed with junk science and lies.

You’re in luck, Maintenance Phase just dropped the definite podcast on the subject today, and I highly recommend it, it delves into how weight is not the only thing correlated to the health and wellbeing of a person.

I am so sorry to hear about these struggles. Please know that you bring immense good to the world- to kitties, humans, and general good juju out in the atmosphere. I know that you inspire others (including myself and family with whom I share your posts) to do as much good. I hope you may continue to do what you love…

Krispy, so sorry. Thanks for sharing and I send you bestest of vibes.

Thank you so much. I know what I do for the cats, but sometimes it helps to hear it from others, and tonight is one of those times. Many of you over the years have told me what the updates mean to you, and that makes my work at the shelter even more rewarding compared to a lot of the other volunteers.

Here is a fall boy in a sweater to warm all of us as the nights begin to chill:
