This article is full of vivid, on-point, deeply unpleasant word paintings. Great job Anna, but also damn you for the mental images.

They need a personal chef for Supreme Court.

He thought it was fine saying those things about Keira Knightly because the people he hangs out with, in the business he operates in, talks about women and people of color that way every day with impunity. So when he got blowback about it and realized his words were heard by people not full of white bro privilege, he…

In other news I’m about to make a birthday cake for my boss with a cute little piggy on top. Her daughter emailed me last minute and asked since she had seen some of my cakes on Instagram. It’s going to be almond cake with roasted cherries and whipped cream filling with chocolate ganache on top.

My best friend and college roommate for three years is a conservative, and was a member of the college Republicans. He was (and is) an exemplary conservative and one whom I wish the party was full of.

I am 27 and have basically given up on heels cuz fuckkkk that noise.

But she literally got handcuffed for trying to talk over the judge.

Just last week I had to talk her out of quitting her final quarter of grad school, because she still feels like her role is in the home and serving other people.

Wow, how did I not know about WELs? I was raised Catholic but went to a Lutheran College and wound up married to a Lutheran. I knew about Missouri Synod and always thought there were the normal Lutherans and then those other Lutherans. Who knew there was a whole other level of “Lutheran” intolerance I never knew…

It amuses me when they say men and women were created for “complementary roles”, and then the roles end up being wife and mother for women, and literally every other human endeaver for men.
