I have seen my waist size fluctuate, but nothing makes me feel more “in shape” (whatever the shape is) than being able to walk up a steep hill and not having to pause and huff and puff.

It looks the same maybe? I definitely have heard from people to not buy the expensive hipster looking stuff as the quality just isn’t as good. I live in a hippie college town so there are usually at least two different soyrizo options in the supermarkets.

I don’t know the brand name, but whatever the cheapest, most inauspiciously packaged soyrizo is in the supermarkets around here is great. I eat meat and I will buy that over sausage as it lasts longer (especially unopened) in my fridge, and it tastes really good. 

And it’s all relative too, like I have legs that work very hard for me that require little maintenance, but I know other people might not have that. But then those other people might have things about their body that they appreciate, like maybe they have a really keen sense of taste, or they’re double jointed, or…

Oh, definitely snacks. And afterwards you can think of all the bacteria living in your stomach and intestines that break down your food and how that microbiome is sort of it’s own living thing living inside you. On that tangent, I was sort of wondering if when Thanos killed 50% of all living things did that include…

There are certainly some problems in California, but having grown up here I’ve never felt like there was a time where my state was falling behind. The fires are certainly worrying, but given that they are exacerbated by climate change as a whole and mostly fueled by federal land that we have less choice on how to…

Like most American women I have struggled with my body image in a pretty casual, every day way. Like, it bums me out, makes me feel insecure, but my relationship with my body has never been one of the largest dictators of my lifestyle. So the body positivity movement has never been a community I feel comfortable in.…

Anybody else weirded out by the backdrop of children’s art that includes a poster with the words “Nobody Cares Work Harder” on it? Am I just overanalyzing this video or was that legitimately a weird thing for a poster, and even weirder since it looks like it was made by someone (or made to look like it was made by…

Can the Dems just have a strategy this time around? I’m not saying Schwarzenegger was the worst governor ever (hello Ronald Regan), but we all know that was a fluke because of how split the vote was last time. It’s been 20 years since then, why am I thinking the same thing will happen all over again?

Oh man, I just remembered seeing the midnight showing of "Iron Man 2." Packed house, audience all riled up and deeply invested. Partway through the movie this drunk lady decides she can't keep her thoughts to herself and starts trying to have a dialogue with the characters. Mostly I remember her slurring "Fuck you,…

The Brothers Bloom is one of my favorite movies. I was working in a first run theatre when it came out so I got to see any movie in the chain for free, which meant I watched that one at least three or four times during it’s short stay at my theatre. My heart still skips a beat when Bloom steals the apple and runs…

Wiretaps on all their homes, cells, and offices.

I worked in a first run movie theatre for two years, and then bartended in a theatre/venue for six and a half, so I have waaay too many favorite stories.

That poll that Vance posted is so busted. Do you really think that if you ask poor people if they want to pay thousands of dollars for childcare you will get the same results as if you ask them if they would use free childcare? Do you not see the monumental difference in those questions when a poor person is answering…

Eh, since this is all being kept in some record somewhere, I’m not an assassin or a soothsayer.

The other day I misheard my co-worker saying “I wish he gets stabbed” as “I wish he gets staph,” and now my mind is stuck on it. Fuck Giuliani. I hope he gets a bad staph infection.

Give ‘em a try if you see them on a sides menu. There are plenty of  places that do them fancy with balsamic and bacon, a great way to test the waters if you’re curious.

Came to make sure someone said it. Thank you.

Most of the stuff that’s remained untouched has been canned or bottled stuff that I’ve just ended up using fresh ingredients for instead. I’ve eaten plenty of fresh tomatoes even though I have a couple cans of chopped tomatoes. I have a carton of chicken stock, but then I ended up taking home a quart of the stuff from…

There are so many things wrong with this. Obviously all the racist dogwhistles and mistakes, which have been thoroughly pointed out here, but even beyond that a few things jump out at me:
