I almost tried it myself, but then I realized I would probably get stuck, and that’s not how I want to spend the rest of my day.

This woman is adorably bananas and I love her. I wish there were more people with her spirit.

This quote from Neil Gaiman about political correctness has stuck with me:

With the way he so clearly loves Michelle and his beautiful girls I think we all secretly wish Obama was our dad. Like seriously after his speech I was like “He's got so much faith in me and this country, I cant disappoint him"

i feel like such a nerd for laughing at this

Can we give Terry Crews an honorary mention or is he considered an eternally woke bae?

Please note—she does not owe you, me, or anyone anything.

If celebrating my roots and culture during Black History Month made anyone uncomfortable, those feelings were there long before a video and long before me.

I fully believe in smuggling illicit alcohol to the elderly.

Surely you can smuggle some in? The nursing home my mom used to volunteer at had this bullshit no booze policy, and all one of the ladies (in her 90s, no family around) there wanted for Christmas was a nice bottle of red wine. You can bet we made that happen for her.
