I often talk to myself in order to help process things. It is kind of awkward sometimes, but it really helps.

For me, talking to myself has also always helped with having a better perspective on things. I’ve been the insightful Dr Phil of sorts with many acquaintances.

My first reaction is “KEEP IT IN YOUR FUCKING PANTS ASSHOLE AND SUPPORT YOUR SUFFERING WIFE, YOU SELFISH PRICK”

So a perfect representation of “fuck you, gots mine.”

So, to be clear, they are having a huge celebration to celebrate passing a bill that has no chance whatsoever to clear the Senate in its current form and will therefore end up in committee and, if it ever makes it to the President’s desk, will likely be something totally different. They just barely beat out the throw…

Pre-existing conditions.

I can’t get over how everyone speaking about this FYRE fiasco keep talking about people being “safe”. You can almost hear the hushed tones around the word. Give me a break. A day or two stuck on an island in the Bahamas with apparently no water or plumbing system admittedly sounds awful, but I really don’t think…

This is something I don’t understand. In many cases, the worst people you’ve ever heard of, have people that care about them. Also, most rapists & murderers present as normal. People that look visibly deranged are outliers. If someone came & told me that one of my parents did some horrible thing, I’d say,”let’s hear…

And the court should tell her that it appreciates her position and is happy that she seems to have come to terms with her assault and trauma. And then it should continue its pursuit of Polanski, who is a child rapist who spent the last 40 years living in luxury and adoration while having a family of his own and…

I always think this on death penalty articles and I think it’s applicable here. Limits on the ways that we punish “bad” guys are not for the sake of the bad guys. They are for the sake of the people doling out the punishment.

I don’t a flying fuck what the man did that landed him in jail--for the purposes of my current outrage I don’t care about whether he should have been there in the first place--no one should die of thirst in this country, MUCH LESS while in the custody of a law enforcement agency. Full. Fucking. Stop.

“If there’s no wine, I swear, I will send Angela to the corner market to get us some. ‘Come to the summit,’ she said. ‘It will be fun,’ she said.”

Merkel invited her because kissing Trump’s ass with meaningless gestures makes him very, very easy to manipulate.

I was so happy today to wake up to footage from the local news showing the start of the statue removal. Fuck those traitorous losers.

It would have been a better documentary tangentially related to the book. Interview ethicists on the Lack family’s rights, the NIH’s role in it now, all the people who have been saved with Henrietta’s cells, and especially the new generation of the Lack family.

I actually agree with this point. Having lost family members to the Holocaust—of one branch of the extended family, only two individuals survived the camps—I know that there is no rational conversation on this topic. The horror and the grief and the rage are so immense (and should be) that it seems obscene to impose…

This is such a good place to be. I always say that I may only have a few dollars at the end of the month, but at least they’re my few dollars. I’m not debt-free just yet. But when I get there, I’m not trying to keep up with the Joneses and living a life I can’t afford.

Their debt is likely bigger too.

It turns out, and it was a huge surprise to most Americans as well, that many of the practices that make our form of government work are not set in law but rather depend on a shared belief in fairness and equity. We were not set up to protect ourselves from a family of grifters. That’s why the President (and VP) are…

The article DID have a positive message for its intended audience. The amount of support and empathy for people who struggle with infertility is huge. The amount of support people who choose to be CF? Not much. And there’s always someone who takes personal offense at it - like the fertile owe the non-fertile a…
