Ah yes, the party of small government... How about being an active parent instead? If you want to shelter your kids, fine (I mean, not cool, but it’s their prerogative), but don’t pull other people into your bullshit.

You’re right, it doesn’t. I read Lauren’s caption wrong and took it as how are they still together despite those allegations, considering his position in the Democratic Party. He must not have thought there was any validity to the claims, considering he didn’t drop her like a hot potato when they came out.

I think it might have to do with the news awhile back about Rosario’s family abusing an old family friend/assistant. The family friend is trans, and the whole thing is pretty disgusting: https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/rosario-dawson-her-family-sued-over-alleged-transphobic-assault-n1069756

I can’t stop giggling over “Becky Mossimo.”  A+ work!

This terrified me so completely, I could hardly leave the house the other night to pick my husband up from work. 

I haven’t watched the show yet, but Olivia Colman is the Queen of my heart...  I think I have a new show to binge when it comes out.

Jesus Christ, I need to be more careful when I scroll.  I just about died choking on my lunch.  Well done!

FUCK YES I would buy Ina Garten’s memoir.  Where the hell do I get on the waiting list?

My therapist nudged me to go as well.  It was really helpful to be with other people experiencing similar things.  I hope that you’re able to find something to help you heal, whatever it is.

I am so so sorry for your loss.  It might be worth looking into al-anon as a way to work through some of the guilt you feel. 

It’s right up there with the piece she wrote about her grandfather as a feminist.  If you haven’t read it, you should.  It’s beautiful.

Thank you for sharing yours and your brother’s story.  I am so profoundly sorry for your loss. 

Someone posited upthread that Mother is a narc.  But I’m also down for some hilarious Pence “fan”fic.

YOU MOTHERFUCKING GENIUS, YOU!

Every time I see him, this is all I can think about:

I slam the radio off when they play clips of his voice.  I cannot.

SAME.

If I were her, I’d probably be upset since her name is all over the headlines since she’s a household name.

Ugh, that is gutting.  My dear friend’s dad died four years ago this week in a motorcycle wreck - someone ran a stop sign and hit him.  It’s terrifying how frequent car/motorcycle accidents are.

I have the same anniversary as the Rock now — yesterday was mine and my husband’s one year anniversary!
