I am on board with this.

Sober New Year’s is great! I discovered about five years ago I do not have to spend the first day of the new year puking my guts out and it has been a revelation.

Ahhhh OK. I had it backwards. Thank you for clarfying.

Hah! I had this happen to me. The groom was-is a close friend. Answer I got was the family invites took over. 10 years later I still don’t quiiiite believe that’s the whole story but whatevs.

Set up an Amazon wish list if you are so inclined and share it here. I’ve seen this community respond to those before and we will again. Hugs and love to you!

Fucking THANK you. Last year my family spent Christmas in the ICU unit watching my father die a slow death from infection. I’d give my left arm and right eye to hear him sing and make us watch A Christmas Story and talk about Charles Dickens. And crinkle his candy container loudly in the movies. Unless your parents…

First in line to the throne is Prince or Princess of Wales - which is why Prince Charles holds the title. When he ascends, that title will go to William.

Masha is a brat.

Growing up our neighbor had an escape artist husky. So I can see it as a lost dog. Not a stray.

And is it like porn, where everyone is a star and no one is just an actor?

I assumed it was poison ivy. Get thee a steroid shot, girl!

That looks like a very, very bad case of poison ivy. Unless it is a serious birthmark, she needs to get to a doctor and get a steroid injection, stat. That shit is not just itchy but eventually painful and all kinds of weepy.

Writers of all stripes because writers are the ones writing the shows. That whole, write what you know thing gets taken to whole new levels.

Now I read this and thought, so getting this treatment will help me finally lose weight? Which I suspect is not supposed to be the main point: I should seek treatment for my secret Oreo problem because I want to stop the cycle of binging, stop feeling ashamed, and maybe even lower my cholesterol. But I confess…

Thanks for the nuanced explanation. My feelings on EOs still stand, but I appreciate that this particular piece of government action may not actually be one. (Insert the more you know shooting star gif.)

Well, they have been dating for like, four years. It happens.

I have so, SO many issues with what’s going on right now. I like DACA as legislation. I do not like that presidents have gained this ability to enact laws they want via executive order, bypassing Congress.

Just coming here to brag I saw Ben Whishaw as Hamlet in 2004 and he was.brilliant.

I did NOT get his appeal till I saw Hollow Crown., and I was so incredibly impressed. It is one of my favorite Shakespeare series.

No probably about it. I have no shame.
