After a certain point, all of the baby sleep advice is so much bullshit. To paraphrase, “You can put your child to bed in a dark quiet room with a white noise machine and a security blanket, but you can’t make them not wake up at 5:30 a.m. and demand to watch ‘Fireman Sam’”.

... Did they have to be photographed in the exact same pose, complete with gaudy ring? Or that an eerie coincidence?

And people ask me why I left. God forbid Kentucky move into the 20th century.

The hydrogen peroxide/baking soda trick works for me every time. I’ve salvaged several nice white dress shirts multiple times that way.

This was a key plotline in “Saved”. Jena Malone’s tries to “save” her gay boyfriend by sleeping with him. She gets knocked up, and he gets sent to conversion camp, where he gets a boyfriend. It also features Mandy Moore throwing a Bible while shrieking “I am FILLED with Christ’s love!”

You can apparently get sheep-safe spray paint:

In one of the recent Windsor Family pictures, one of the great-grandbabies — I think Zara’s daughter — is about this age and is pictured holding the Queen’s handbag. Why? Because she insisted on it, and the Queen agreed. She knows you’ve got to pick your battles at this age.

My mostly-female office decided that going on strike would just leave us with more work to do the next day. So we had “An Hour Without a Woman” this morning and wrote postcards to our representatives.

Right? What sort of world are we in that Richard Nixon suddenly looks sane and restrained?!?

Read it and weep like I did:

I mean, I don’t even know at this point. It’s like comparing two different dog turds -- which is more disgusting? How do you even choose?

I don’t know, I think Trump’s assertion today that Jews are phoning in bomb threats to their own institutions to discredit him is nearly as offensive!

A “woman” engineer? Shouldn’t it be “female engineer”? 

Oh my God, seriously? That whole “I’m not lactose intolerant, therefore I’m racially superior” argument? Oh my God. What a moron.

“the uniform of the intelligentsia.”

To quote Adrian Bott:

Questions and thoughts:

I just can’t imagine anyone looking at this guy and thinking, “Yeah, that’s someone I want to support.” Then again, I don’t understand people who want to cosplay as Darth Vader, either, so... 

I’ve had some where we discussed how best to ship the baby teeth we’re collecting.* Sometimes I think I AM listening to Chthulu’s quarterly earnings call.

We’ve obviously never met, but you’re awesome. Carry on :)
