Beelzebubba, Satan’s cloyingly aw shucks country cousin.

Hey, I just got Kinja’d! For the very first time! This wasn’t my response, but I did comment here with a similar sentiment.

It is more common with type 1, but it can happen with type 2 if it is untreated, especially if the patient leads an unhealthy lifestyle and/or has co-morbidities. Also, the diabetes spectrum is much more complicated than just type 1 and type 2, but we’re stuck working with an outdated diagnostic and classification…

Yes. My auburn darkened to a mousy brown with hints of auburn, and lots of grey. Two of my uncles’ bright red-orange hair faded to strawberry blonde, also with lots of early grey. Thankfully, I have an amazing hairdresser who magically returns my locks to their pre-pubescent glory!

Damn, but does that man ever make my ovaries dance!

Totally believable, right up to the use of the word “indigenous.” Somehow doubt that such a fancy, politically correct term is part of the great orange bloviator’s lexicon. Other than that, spot on!

As my diet is primarily vodka and chips, I’m fairly certain that we may be kin. At LEAST potato patch kin...

That’s Julie Walters, aka Molly Weasley! She is a goddamned treasure!

Former Central Florida resident here, grew up in Brevard County. Shit like this is why the “former” status. Never, ever, ever going back again. I have a severe snake phobia, and have found my safe space in NW Washington, where there are only four native species of snakes, and none venomous.

YAAAASSSSS. That was an evil, vile choice, and Bobby is the devil incarnate for making us choose one of them.

I am uber jelly. He is the most fecking adorable thing, betting he would be a delightful neighbor.

I saw him in May at Wizard World Philadelphia, and he made me (and the whole audience) cry. Not just a cry, but an all-makeup destroying, sobbing, gasping for air, vision-altering CRY. He told the story of finding out about his mother’s death during the filming of Muppets Most Wanted, and how Kermit helped him to…

Plenty to do on the island without risking exposure to the plague-bunnies of Langley. Take in Front Street or the kite festival at Fort Casey in Coupeville, hike Ebey’s Landing, or my favorite, pie and wine tasting at Greenbank Farm. Wave hello as you pass through!

Yes! As far as feral varmints go, as fecking cute as it gets!

Langley, south end of the island.

There really are two Whidbeys, Oak Harbor (with the base) and everything south of Oak Harbor. We started out in OH, but got over that shit pretty fast and settled just south of Coupeville. Gorgeous as all get out here. My shop in Coupeville is where some of the interiors for Practical Magic were shot, and the spot…

Well that sucks. Best bubble and squeak I ever had. Obviously I don’t get out much, or I would have known that it closed.

It’s a catch-22 here. Coyotes on Whidbey were seriously over-populating and aggressively seeking food in developed areas. Lots of small pets and livestock lost to them. Nobody seems to get the whole “population management” thing right here, and development of habitats keeps growing, so we just keep fucking it up.

There are also some wild guinea piggies on the north end of the island, outside of Oak Harbor. My husband thought that I was crazy for seeing wild ones in the woods near our old home, until he finally saw one.

Thank you! It is a huge island, with a large Navy base, 6 separate municipalities, and large unincorporated areas in between. Every fecking book or movie that uses Whidbey as a setting treats it like one tiny homogenous community, like we’re Lummi or Guemes.
