The worst part about the current admin being comic book level cartoonishly evil is that we have no X-Men, no Batman, no Avengers to fight against it all.

Scientist 1: “That stuff gives people cancer.”

So I wonder if these idiots were allowed to call ACA, instead of Obamacare, call it Trumpcare, would they call it the greatest single piece of legislation ever? Barak is pretty cool; he might even go along with it. (He’d probably laugh at their ignorance.)

This this this so much! They actually made this point on NPR the other day that a huge reason why people don’t start small businesses or go back to school to gain new skills... fear of losing health insurance. The economy talk is such convulted bull shit.

This, COMPLETELY.
What, do Republicans think that the services performed in the ER are magically paid for by li’l baby Jesus? NO, MR. LABRADOR. They are funded by TAX DOLLARS.
Which is more expensive: dietary coaching and annual check-ups with a general practitioner, or a quadruple bypass?

“I was trying to explain that all hospitals are required by law to treat patients in need of emergency care regardless of their ability to pay and that the Republican plan does not change that,”

This story is such a great testament to both the emotional and the monetary costs of having uninsured people. It is cheaper to treat stage 1 colon cancer than stage 4. It is better for the economy to have people starting small businesses, launching successful freelance careers, etc. without having to worry about…

Ahhhhh, no. You’re soft-shoe-ing this by asking such a benign question. What difference does it make if it was reasonable of you? He lied to your face and you are making excuses for his behavior when you should really be pissed off! And nowhere in any of your writing/responses did you say that you were ending the…

He did ask me for my birthday present back so he could book flights to go see his dad interstate who’s in hospital.

DOOOOGGGGGIIIIEEEEEE

I love a giant dog.

I posted about my Moxie a few weeks ago. She had been trapped and dumped by my neighbor on Good Friday. On Wednesday, after many, many hours of searching through muddy fields and brush I found her and now she is safe and sound at home. I am grateful to the Jezzie community for all your kind words that kept my spirits…

Kidlet learned this week why leaving chicken anywhere near dog height is a Bad Idea. We adopted our dog (mastiff/lab mix) in February, and it seems he’s truly settled in now, because he’s actually acting like a dog and not a perfect houseguest. Kidlet was eating dinner, then had to sign on for a conference for school.…

Pet thread, anyone? A photo and then a story about the goofball displayed therein.

Happy SNS from Sheela the Irish Wolfhound.

I went running for the first time in my neighborhood on Wednesday, and it was awful. It was constant catcalling. My fiance went with me on his bike because he didn’t understand why I never want to go running at home. He was horrified. It’s like he never realized what it’s like to have dudes make gross comments to you…

I’d have cropped them too. They look like novelty hookers. I loathe Diddy, but he looks incredible here. Does he still actually DO something?

Baby got ear tubes on Monday. Hopefully her communication will pick up now.

Jezzies, I am SO HAPPY. Back in August we had a little bit of an exodus in my office. My boss moved to Europe in early August, and 2 weeks later the other person in my group gave their notice so I’ve been running solo since the beginning of September. It’s been so busy and so exhausting. I’m averaging about 6-7 hours…
