Also scientists. OH HAI I FOUND THE PROBLEM.

I would throw “what the fuck” in there. Multiple times.

I’m in the Portlandia Free Zone, so I’m surrounded by like-minded people, which *really* helps my mental state. I don’t have to sit here and seethe when my coworkers sitting right next to me rave about the new administration (as was the case during 2001-2008) because they’re just as pissed about everything as I am.…

Yay! I’m having to limit my political/news podcasts to three a day (instead of all day as has been the case for years) right now because RAGE, but I’ll fit this one into my mix once it’s there.

Fuck yeah! It’s awesome to see a forty-five-year-old woman do something like this (not being snarky here. I’m the same age as her, and I love it when women in our age group pull off amazing things like this). She’s also working on a documentary. Cannot wait to see that.

I’m going to repeat my plea: Put this on Stitcher, please!

I absolutely agree that was their plan, but I don’t think they had any fucking idea what batshit things he would do once in office. They’re now trying to control a volcano during an earthquake.

Here’s what I always say to people who bitch about paying for other people’s kids to go to school when they themselves are childfree: You do it so the kids have something to do during the day and don’t fuck up your shit because they’re bored or unable to control themselves because they’re fucking *kids* who have not…

To build on that, I think it is entirely amoral if not immoral to make epic shit tons of money off people’s misery and death, which is what the insurance industry and so-called healthcare system in this country is. For-profit basic healthcare should not exist. It is absolutely parasitic. Yes, I am very much in favor…

I can only see one movie the weekend this comes out, and I am having a *really* hard time deciding between this and John Wick Chapter 2. (And I really hope one of these wins the box office race that weekend. I don’t even care which one. I just really, *really* hate the entire universe of the third Part Two movie…

It’s Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner meets The Stepford Wives (the original one, not the shitty remake with Bette Midler). The Stepford Wives was horror, so I don’t even bother mentioning horror when I try to explain this movie since that would be redundant.

I only half-skimmed this article out of fear of spoilers (it’s on my media blackout list because of this. I cannot express how excited I am for it), but I have to share this: A friend was watching the latest extended theatrical trailer with her lip curled and head shaking “no” for the first half of it because she…

And also everyone who kept saying “but he’ll pivot and become more moderate after the election!” Fuck all of them in a firey hell.

Upon further reflection on Shia, I realized that my first thought when I first heard about it was “I wonder how long it will take for a Nazi to attack someone in front of the camera since that’s the world we live in now.” I’m extremely amused to find out that the Nazi was the one being attacked and doubly entertained…

Fingers crossed for the latter!

Y’know what? At this point, I’m actually looking forward to that.

I somehow ended up registered in two different counties in the *same state* when I was in college. I went through the correct process to update my license to my new address, and I still received ballots and jury summonses at the old address I hadn’t lived at in several years even though I was on the voter rolls in my…

Well, Hugo Boss *is* still around.

Beaverton (a suburb of Portland, and also where Nike lives) basically shrugged and said something to the effect of “well, they mainly just give us money for helping sexual assault victims, and they’re cutting that anyway, so there’s no reason for us to capitulate since we wouldn’t be getting the money no matter what.”

Fucking hell. This is either the best or worst week to start watching The Man in the High Castle. (I read the book years ago and loved it, but I’ve forgotten everything about it except the basic premise.) And now I’m debating rereading Fatherland, the book written after years of meticulous research into the…
