Okay, that’s a really great point! I guess since my I’ve only known rescues or pet store dogs (and because it’s Monday), I didn’t even think about the really obvious solution of breeders who don’t sell to pet stores. Thanks for pointing that out!

So many feelings on this. On one hand, this bill makes sense and is excellent for promoting animal welfare.

When I was little, my mom would tell the story of how an angel visited her once while she was pregnant with me. It flew threw the window, perched on the edge of her bed, and then flew back through the open window. Obviously, as a small child in a devoutly Christian home, I was always slightly smug about this story. My…

Doesn’t the water come from the same machine as the pop? Is it bacteria-infested too? Or is there a safe beverage option?

Levar Burton read the titular short story from Leslie Nneka Arimah’s book, and I haven’t stopped thinking about it ever since I listened to it. Her ability to build such a fleshed out world in so few worlds and deliver a sharp plot at the same time blows me away. It made me appreciate short fiction again.

Yeah, but they don’t do it on people’s porches! Also, there are such a thing as adult diapers. I assume they suck, but less than being arrested due to some sort of decency violations.

Sigh. I can just imagine the different nymph-themed eyeshadow palettes now, and I want them all!

You’re blessed with a good colon, then. Continue on as-is! The unlucky (like me) can stay in the bathroom doing the deed for so long that motion-sensing lights go out.

I’m in the grays, so this probably doesn’t mean much, but in a conversation about shitting, you don’t have to worry about talking about your period, boo!

She is 50. It was just internet sarcasm, I think :).

I feel like I would totally be on board with this if we knew that the prison had some sort of hurricane procedure to keep the men safe, too. It would also be cool to know if they were being literally forced to do it, or if it’s just a “banding together to help everyone” thing.

I often sit at home alone and test different versions of Patriarchy Paint on myself. I wouldn’t want to take it out in public where I might be subjected to the male gaze, though, so I often throw a pillowcase over my head when I leave home.

I’ll say it. I miss the fancy going out tops. Now all I have in my closet are dresses (all shaped the same), t-shirts and tank tops. I’m 100% sure that the colorful patterns are how Lu La Roe has become (however ill-advised) a “thing”.

I didn’t see the Japanese until about a month after it was announced. No idea why, but I’m happy to have it now.

Sending you internet cookies from the grays.

I love your take on this. I think Emilia is playing Dani perfectly. She’s trying to be a self-composed queen, she’s not going to go for loud, obvious emotions.

No wonder she kills everyone with ice and a grin now. Revenge served cold and all that...

For most people - nah. For this guy - it’s like having a Republican do something for the good of the republic or eating a meal from McDonalds that doesn’t make you spontaneously puke.

I freaking love Torrid’s swimsuit! I got a two piece for the first time since I was 17 from there this year. You look fabulous!!

So true. I have complicated feelings about her, but I’m glad she’s not in solitary, because that shit is cruel, and I’m glad she’s out, partially because that.fucking.photo. was getting so old.
