I want to say he’s the most slappable person on earth, but he runs a close second to Martin Shkreli.

I feel like all the greys having meltdowns over in Michael Harriot’s defense of “wypipo” need to come over here and read this article.

During the last mid-terms, I read a piece by a young woman in her early 20's who discussed how she wasn’t voting because she didn’t like the candidates then and none of her candidates had EVER won (in her early 20's, I kinda had to laugh about that - we’re talking 5, maybe 6 elections she’d been eligible to vote in,…

I don’t know if it’s an appropriate response here, but I just wanted to note I fucking love your screen name.

I feel like the DNC needs to call in Bill and Barack and say “teach us your campaigning ways - help us find a candidate who doesn’t act like the smartest/smarmiest kid in the room, radiates competence, and knows how to connect with people.” But they will never do that - too fucking sensible to pull on the experience…

Grand-mal seizures are frightening at a truly visceral, lizard-brain level. If you don’t have enough humanity to care about what that does to the patient and the friends and family members who have to witness them - that poor man’s wife was equally as exhausted and understandably frantic - then you need to get your…

I didn’t get the “bitch”, though it was implied when she told me she thought I was spoiled and whiny after she had to have a little come-to-jesus with one of the supervisors. She also trash-talked me to other staff, but it didn’t go far. She’d super-duper fucked up, even if she didn’t want to admit it. (An orderly…

:( I’m so sorry to hear it. Many really are good people who want to help.

I used to work the Triage desk as the receptionist in a large ER. I rapidly learned that some Emergency Medicine nurses are absolutely amazing individuals - bright, caring, compassionate, insanely perceptive, level-headed beyond all reason. And then some are absolutely burned out POS’s with deeply racist tendencies.

Oh, the schadenfreude with Milo Y is just tasty.

I’ll concede genetics can be totally wonky and unpredictable and Italians can run the gamut in how we look, depending upon what part of Italy your family came from.

I’m pretty sure they were confident in that part of Fulton - not quite as posh as the super-pricey parts, but certainly a nice neighborhood with low crime rates - nothing major was going to happen. So why bother turning them on?

The TL;DR is Family Is Complicated.

My dog is hanging out with some of his BFF’s in his kennel. Because it’s also his daycare facility. The last time we picked him up, he was obviously distracted because he was playing with the bubble machine, which had been loaded with bacon-scented bubbles.

A Cali-based friend of mine was recently divorced after a 25+ year marriage. As he found out, the prenup apparently meant shit after that long of a relationship - it’s all about joint assets after that long together. His lawyer told him they’re realistically good for about 10 years in California, but beyond that, it’s…

In my case, it’s a survival technique. If I went full no-contact, my father’s ego couldn’t handle it, and he would hound me relentlessly, and in turn, so would my siblings, if only because he wouldn’t leave them alone either. (I have no kids for them to see, so I can’t hold that card over them.)

The fact that he is president proves that whiteness is paramount to white people. They will drink poison as long as POC have to drink poison as well.

I’m just gonna go take a walk now. This is fucking horrifying. What is WRONG with people?

You know, if you’re gonna stupid that hard, maybe you should hide behind stupid sci-fi bullshit.

That is EXCELLENT. (And Congratulations if I didn’t mention it back on the original post. So exciting!)
