Practically wrapped my car around a tree when Diane Rehman had someone from Heritage on saying liberals and Democrats had never *really* opposed Stalin, or Castro, because liberals heart socialism. My grandparents were all in WW2 (even my grandmother was a naval officer), and managed to be Catholic, Democratic…

I am in the same boat, and although I’m gay, my marriage is protected by state law because I live in Massachusetts. I’m educated, my wife is educated, we live in an affluent, diverse suburb and belong to a church that fully affirms the values we cherish. My wife and I have good, secure jobs and even though we are both…

Only if you are supremely insecure.

^is this what a “safe space” looks like when you’re filthy rich?

Trump technique #2: Always Be Trumpin’. Always. Fill every niche where a non-Trump thought might lurk.

Drumpf.

There is surely a German word for “breathtakingly tacky”, and I have never been in greater need of it.

Oh, yes. This is the reason I deactivated my FB. Something stupid would pop up on my timeline and the lovely, overly polite me would clap back at anyone in need of it. Using the bible as an ala carte menu? *CLAP* Supporting Blue Lives Matter but unable to explain to me why Blue was ok but Black was somehow “bad.”…

And yet I do not find this tacky. As it is an actual palace built nearly two centuries ago. The tackiness comes in the faux imitation....

I’m embarassed. I’m ashamed. I’m sad.

It’s like what a 10-year-old thinks “really rich” looks like. Too many Scrooge McDuck cartoons.

Point.

God, we’re going to have to go back to getting medical advice from our barbers.

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?
Thunderbolt and lightning,
Very, very frightening me.

This is my fear. This all scares the shit out of me/makes me angry, but lately, for the sake of sanity and so my kids don’t have to live with angry mama, I’ve been trying to find a way to relax about it all and think “I’m just going to tune out the next few years and get through it”, but then that scares me even more…

I’ve been on a continuous sweary rant for about two months now. My husband has called it stream-of-consciousness profanity and told me that I do it in my sleep now, also.

Well, my husband and I have pre-existing conditions, so I’ve begun saying goodbye in my mind to the home we will have to sell if all the Obamacare reforms really go away.

I’ve been watching old episodes of Veronica Mars and in one ep she’s going to NY and says she’ll take pepper spray “in case we run into that Trump character”. I miss 2005 so badly, when he was still a hilarious joke instead of a clear and present danger to humanity as we know it.

With a Republican-controlled everything, I’m assuming I will have to teach myself self-dentistry.
