*waves spirit fingers*

I gotta go get a goatee.

My boyfriend works for the state division of the EPA and he is seriously scared about losing his job.

I attend the U of Washington as an online student and some of the residential students in my cohort were saying there were some unfriendly epithets being bandied about on campus yesterday.

There was a meme going around which was as follows:

I know exactly the kind of woman who voted for him. I work in an office full of them. My 3rd wave feminist soul is dead.

I will still miss Diamond Joe.

Yeah I'm really mad at the NYT for that. I was feeling optimistic with those percentages.

Ugh right I forgot. God dammit.

So 50.1% and 49.9%. Sigh.

Dammit did we trade the Cubs winning for having a decent president? Shit.
