This has been a weird week. I am having flashbacks of SO many inappropriate groping, penis flashing, boob grabbing, sly sexual comments made to make me feel scared....I’m a little jealous of someone who only had one instance to share....

Damn Viola Davis’s response is perfect and powerful and about to make me cry. She’s truly a treasure. I don’t have the words to say how much I admire her consistently good commentary about the state of the world but I hope she knows how important her words are to so many people.

Old white men are the ultimate authority on who is and isn’t oppressed.

Flag: *Waves*

This is really one of those golden opportunities for me. I mean, what if I call and we really hit it off? I’m just saying what if MY call is the ONE CALL he answers out of thousands and we vibe. I feel like we would vibe, me and Jimmy Butler the professional basketball star. It would probably start slow. Like he’d…

*this is what Don thought the actual job was. he thought he was elected to be the queen of the United States.

If somebody had placed your quote with the actual quote and held a gun to my head, I would have assumed he said yours, and I’d be dead.

That is my father but he was in construction. Very active hands-on physical career, but now can barely summon the energy to walk to the mailbox to pick up the mail without his legs giving out. It is a miserable awful disease. He was diagnosed at 60. 

“Everyone must feel good that he scored, given his ‘situation.’”

My dad was “lucky” in that regards as the type he had allowed him to keep working for 30+ years after his diagnosis. It was the second bout with cancer that did him in. Stay strong and good luck.

I could say the same about my father who worked his ass off as an auto mechanic and then had to retire after being diagnosed with MS because basic things like picking up a tool were too difficult for him.

I spend probably a little over a 1/3 of my monthly earnings on rent and utilities. It barely leaves me enough money for the drugs and alcohol that I need to try and forget how shitty life is.

No one cares about your fantasy football team.

No puppet! No puppet! You’re the puppet!

Being Canadian and having guaranteed access to care are going to be HUGE for him after his NHL career ends. The treatment for MS would bankrupt even a multimillionaire in fairly short order without insurance or other income. The drugs alone approach $80,000 a year, for the standard first-line medications. Then there’s…

This sucks for Bickell. The only silver lining is that MS treatment has advanced leaps and bounds in the past decade. My dad has been living with MS for 15 years since his diagnose and he’s still able to walk and play golf at 59. He may not play hockey again but his chances at a good quality of life are pretty good…

I see we’re fellow travelers.

In 2013, he was part of the buzzsaw that ended my team’s hopes at repeating as Stanley Cup champs, and I hated watching him lift the Cup that year. All I can say today is I am rooting for him and the countless others who are suffering from this terrible disease. I hope that he continues to play for as long as he can,…

Man. I’ve worked with a lot of late stage MS patients and if I got that diagnosis...
