I have lived in this house 7 years, and up until recently I had witnessed 2 minor car accidents outside my house from people running a stop sign. Now that I am working from home and am home a lot, I am actually hearing 3-6 car honks a day, and at minimum 1 fender bender a week. When I look out the window, lo and…

I am spending a lot of time working alone these days and....I’m going to grind all my teeth out if I don’t get some true entertainment in my life. Thoughts?

Is it the end of the world? I feel like it’s the end of the world. I didn’t want to hijack the relatively pleasant Evening OT with my doomsday feelings but:

I am ordering a bridesmaids dress (from Jenny Yoo if that makes a difference) and my typical issue with ordering things online is that size charts are like, 100% completely wrong. I always do ok ordering dresses that are around the size I know I tend to be. However, I have not bought a “nice” dress online since I have…

I am trying to help my mom get a domain set up for her art sales (which happen on a store similar to Etsy). What we want is to buy a domain so you could type www.mymomswebsite.com and it would redirect to the page of her store. I’m way better at this than her but way worse at it than techie people, so I am trying to…

As many of you know I am kicking off my (hopeful) career as a self-employed artist. To that end I have started a blog/email newsletter through my website, and I’ll be doing a monthly drawing for for freebies out of the list of subscribers. If you’re interested (or interested in getting in on the drawings and want to…

I’m pretty confident we will be unable to remove Trump from office in the first term, since it is mathematically impossible for the Democrats to get a supermajority in the Senate in 2018. So it would require Republicans to remove him from office - even if they don’t like him, even if the base kind of hates him, they’d…

I am just NOT a bug person. So when I spotted a cockroach, I tried to chase it outside with a broom (because if I kill it, there will either be a dead cockroach for me to deal with or it will come back to life and kill me), but it escaped and hid somewhere. Of course my useless little dogs were doing nothing, and then…

I am more than a little terrified of this (heads up for goddamn autoplay video):

I know this isn’t the first we’re hearing about Trump’s possible involvement with human trafficking, but this is the first I’m hearing about an investigation into it (and I know this has yet to be confirmed by a more legit source but Taylor has been pretty spot on).

I am a little out of my depth here and would love some advice. Background: My brother is in treatment for addiction. We do not know the extent of his usage but we think alcohol, pot, and opioids. Anyway, he has been at a small center since the fall (now in kind of a halfway house situation) and he seems to be doing…

So Fusion published like the 50 thousandth article about how the Democrats have no coherent message and I have opinions about it. There are already a million comments over there and I want to have this conversation so I thought I’d have it here...My thoughts are:

I spent most of the weekend having nightmares panicking about having quit my job. This is my last week in the office (next week at a conference is my official last week). Then this morning I walk into a pile of abusive ass emails from a couple of our specialest snowflake clients and I feel validation. The whole thing…

This has my blood boiling. This transcript features Paul Ryan, I BELIEVE Rep. Cathy Rodgers (R-Wa), Steve Scalise (R-La), Kevin McCarthy (R-Ca), and Patrick McHenry (R-NC). There is an unidentified individual listed and then maybe there were more people in the room. Basically it’s them, in 2016, talking about how…

I just keep flailing around with nowhere to put my many, many feelings:

This article defends “last-minute mergers” and I agree with it. I’m only predicting arguing, haha, since that seems to be how conversations about driving work and people are having a fight about this on my Facebook.

Scotch eggs. But why?
