If she wants monogamy, she’s with the wrong dude.

Ugh - that’s so frustrating! I have had to limit my contact with some close friends because they are still going to bars & restaurants all the time. I love them, but I can’t put my loved ones’ health at risk for them.

We’ve only been together since 2018. He is being converted, slowly. At first he kept telling me I had to respect the office of the President (LOL), but then he started calling 45 a douchebag. So...it’s working!

I also am Indian, but am an interracial adoptee. It has made me so joyful to see Kamala Harris’s ascendance. Thank you for this thoughtful essay. There are aspects of her past that I definitely am conflicted about, but I hope overall she does us proud.

I have been 1-2 days’ sober and it is no small feat. I am 16 years at the moment and it is much easier now than it was then.

I hear how stressed you are with every post. Is there something difficult - rather than fun - that you can do that will take up your concentration for awhile?  

My partner is one of those weirdos who voted for Obama, then voted for 45 (he didn’t trust Hillz, I guess?). He voted for Biden this time, thank goodness. We only minimally discuss politics. Tuesday night is traditionally our ‘date night’ so I think we’ll just be nestled on the couch with burritos and watching reruns.

I mean, what were they like before? Were all of these people repressing their violent tendencies until now?

I had to drive through several hundred 45 supporters (they were lining the streets) on Friday, while heading up to my partner’s home. It’s so disgusting to see people gleefully celebrate supporting a racist, xenophobic, misogynistic gasbag.

My partner’s mom is holed up about an hour south of the Canadian border with her boyfriend because those two Trumpinista, Q-Anon followers are convinced that antifa are going to riot and utilities will be shut down for weeks here in the city.

OAN airs them. It’s bizarre to see a tv channel pretty much 100% devoted to him.

Those ‘leg of mutton’ sleeves are terrible. Leg of mutton sleeves, peplums, cold-shoulder tops...all trends throughout the years that I cannot support. It all looks goofy.

300,000 infections and 700 deaths. Which party is the death cult, again?

When I lived in Los Angeles, my polling place was some dude’s garage. That felt sketchy as hell, but I did it anyway!

My dude never introduces me to anyone, however he fails to do introductions in general. I usually just introduce myself, because he’s bad at manners.

The confirmation of ACB made it real to me that Biden could really lose this if it goes to the courts. I want you to be wrong, but I also lived through 2016.

I feel conflicted (though not due to PTSD) about polling places being held inside churches. I’m much more comfortable with them being at libraries, etc. I’ve voted at Catholic churches the past few years and my current polling place is an evangelic church. 

To this day, I don’t know. I was too ashamed (with no real reason!) of our last interaction over 10 years ago to ask.

I was bringing my new boyfriend out on Halloween to a bar crawl with a bunch of my good friends. It was his first time really hanging out with us as a group. We arrive and my good friend, Louisa, introduces me to one of her good friends, Jon.

She was partying in the Hamptons with Chuck Schumer, George Soros, and Steven Spielberg a few years ago, so I’m quite sure moneyed society doors will still remain open for her.
