Oh no. I was told I’d need a “donor graft” across the front of my bottom gums because of a little pocket of erosion. I have never left a dentist’s office so quickly.

Arrrgh. My doctor explained that my anxiety was so bad that it was causing IBS, which created insane amounts of gas, which then broke into tiny bubbles and crowded up my intestines and BACK INTO MY STOMACH, where it caused the most crippling case of nausea I have ever had and prevented me from getting out of bed for 3…

“a lot of people go through life trying to perform normalcy, and I think you can relate to that.”

I bet it’s called “Pee-can Sandie!” and I bet it’s a rip roarin good ol time.

Why is it that I still have to wake up every morning and ask what the literal fuck is going on?? I’m so exhausted by this campaign, man.

I. Got. You.

Found it: Colonial House!

Which was the one where the lady refused to go to church and they tied her to a stick in the ground out in the field? Was it the same? Seem to recall some 17th-century garb on her...

Ohhh mah lort...I bloody love these shows! I am so addicted to PBS’s “1900s House” that I’ve watched it a thousand times on YouTube. I recently looked up the whole family on Facebook and my brain broke because one minute they’re stoking the fire to heat the bath water, then they’re back home sharing the single…

OH WELL IN THAT CASE

Solitary confinement...as...punishment...for attempted suicide????????

Gawwwd almighty. This is exactly the kind of thing McDonald’s would ignore. I worked at a rural McDonald’s during my teenage years, and the manager there was such a creep, and it took them years to get around to firing him.

You know there’s gonna be trouble from down under when a McDonald’s has a special area of the parking lot that’s just for semi trucks. And the one where I worked when I was 16 did! Whoo buddy! Those guys basically treated any bathroom that was available as a full service hotel with a shower. I used to have to clean…

True story: last month Mr. Joner and I looked at an apartment in Humboldt and when the building owner told us it was the apartment that movie was filmed in, I was just like--nope. This is a sign. Bye!

Not sure I can agree with the “super affordable” part. I’ve lived in my neighborhood (featured in this show) since 2002 and rent has gone up an insane amount over that time. We’re currently waiting to be forced out of our place since we’ve been lucky enough to be under market for a while, and from the bit of research…

Unless both of you have such bad dry skin on your legs that you start a fire.

It happened again yesterday. I offered my seat to a *definitely* pregnant woman. She responded “NO?!” and glared down at me. I realized that I had stepped in it. She was wearing her work nametag, though, and I felt so bad about it all day that I found her on Facebook and sent her a message letting her know I was…

I had to go to a day-long training thing for work. One of the sessions was run by a woman around my age. She seemed kind of frazzled and stressed and a bit sad, lost her place in her notes several times, and hurried through the end of the presentation like she just wanted to be out of there.

White people have been afraid of Black people since slavery. You can see it in the laws that were passed: emancipated Black people were forced out of the state where they had been slaves, because their ability to own weapons and speak freely could no longer be controlled. At one point in Tennessee, where my family…

Well, as anyone who’s ever taken public transportation in a large, busy city knows, LOTS of people have chips on their shoulders, for so many reasons.
