When she went on tv back in the day to push her dumb jewelry or skin care line, she continued to openly and passionately push the birther bullshit. So fuck her. That #freeMelania meme was funny for like a day, but a giant middle finger to anyone who feels sorry for her.

As a former teacher, I can pretty much guarantee his elementary school book reports went kind of like this: “This was a great book. I really liked it. Lots of really interesting things happened in it. It also had good characters. I really liked the parts with the descriptions, and the language the author used.”

Oh, that is very low behavior indeed. They should have their passports temporarily revoked (leaving the US) for that. I am not a well-traveled person by any means, but everybody knows that when someone in a foreign country puts themselves out to cook either a local meal or a meal like one from home for you, you…

One of my most vivid childhood memories (I hate that THIS has stuck with me for nearly 25 years) was visiting a friend’s house and her mother made fish sticks and onion rings. I hated onions rings at the time, but I HATED fish sticks. Everything about them.

A friend of mine did a yoga trip/training in India. One night, their host who was Indian made them all pizza because he knew Westerners loved pizza. Every single person except her refused to eat the pizza because they were gluten free/vegan/carb free. She literally cried telling me the story. People are the worst.

As someone with this gene who has been medically advised by all medical experts (not a movie star) to take the “nuclear option”... Sorry, did you think that being told at 30 that you should probably lose your breasts and ovaries if you want better odds of staying alive is not scary? Because it’s effing terrifying. Oh,…

Speaking of touring—guess who gets to see Kris Kristofferson on Thursday? (Did you guess me, because it’s me.)

Add The Doors. He was a very Jim Morrison-y Jim Morrison.

fuckin do it, dude. you deserve every last minute of it.

It really was. Dude IS Doc Holliday, now and forever.

You’d really appreciate the ESPN documentary on the OJ Simpson Trial (OJ: Made in America). I actually preferred it to the movie.

Don’t forget him in Tombstone. Performance of a lifetime.

An anecdote of why you can’t run government like a business. As told by Jamie Vollmer:

My elementary school-aged daughter has decided that all traditional pants are “terrible” and “make my belly hurt” and will only wear elastic-waisted leggings/stretch pants/knits. She wants comfort as she tree-climbs, karate-kicks, and army-crawls her way through 1st Grade and I cannot blame her.

Yeah, I’m Canadian and it makes me really mad when I hear American conservatives claim that everyone here hates our socialized health care system(s) and it doesn’t work. Bull-fucking-shit, there’s a reason we still have socialized medicine despite a lot of lobbying from private insurance companies: many people rely on…

You understand that Michael Caine is pretty much the James Earle Jones of England right?

I think there are probably plenty of people who are pro death penalty in theory but don’t want their names down as official witnesses to a going-out-of-business-sale ten-day death jamboree.

Stephen Hawking is 75 years old. At age 21, he was told he had about two years to live. No point to this except that every time I see his name I remember how old he is and think “man that guy is tenacious.”
