One key thing that happened is that the blue wall fell. The Minneapolis CoP testified against him. And the prosecutor framed this as a pro-police situation, ie: good cops who do their jobs well have nothing to fear, but bad, dirty, sociopath cops should be on notice.

This is a significant moment that will only keep its meaning if America chooses to continue accountability as a matter of course. 

Same.

The way I feel right now reminds me of how I felt when the election was officially called for Biden. Both times I yelled “YES YES YES” so loud that my ears rang.

I’m tearing up, this has made my day 

I don’t think her face moves very far from the expression pictured above, but yes — if you told someone who didn’t know her that she was 27 years old, they’d believe you.

I got bored one day and found some Vanity Fair or New Yorker article that covered some of it at that time. Katie got a bunch of residences set up in different states so she could pick which state she wanted to file in. Also Tom took less than two weeks to sign the divorce agreement. He didn’t even bother to negotiate.…

I’m going to start making wet food for the cats. In Panama, there’s a Panamanian brand of wet food that my cats refuse to eat, and then there’s Fancy Feast, at $1.25 per tiny can. In the US, those cans were fifty cents. And that’s it. So, the cat food situation here ain’t grand, and I'm aiming to fix that. While I'm…

When I lived in my old apartment on a very busy street in PA, one night I was woken up to the sound of a horrible car accident. It sounded like it was a few blocks away from my apartment and the very loud and disturbing noise was glass breaking, cars colliding, brakes squealing, metal crunching.

I don’t have an addition to the Pissing Contest but in the absolutely most cursed wedding (and subsequent marriage) I ever attended, my chef boyfriend and I bit into the chicken — and it was pink on the inside. Both plates. We raced to the caterers to warn them, naively thinking they might retrieve the dishes and…

What’s everyone been up to in the kitchen? Bread was in heavy rotation around here, look at my beautiful loaf of bread!
