He topped himself this weekend -- we were at his twin cousins’ bris, and he thought it was a birthday party because there was a cake and started singing “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” during the ceremony, then kicked and screamed when I bodily carried him out. I’m sure my MIL blamed my shiksa genes.

I wish I could get my kid to eat chicken nuggets. The closest I’ve gotten is with the type shaped like dinosaurs; he ate one and a half, then shredded the rest with his fork while making “rawr” noises.

Last year we had a solid week in which he demanded toaster waffles with peanut butter for EVERY. DAMN. MEAL. We were on vacation with my in-laws at the time. I just tell myself that everything is a phase that eventually passes.

Yup, I have one where I’m on the cover of Vanity Fair. I’m a STAHHHH!

I don’t feel any guilt for giving my kid yogurt. I feel guilt when I feed him Trader Joe’s meatballs for the third dinner in a row because that’s all he’ll deign to eat lately.

I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever hated a living person more than I hate Donald Trump. My hatred of him eclipses my hatred for my ex-stepmother, which is really saying something.

Whenever we’re driving in NYC and spot a sign referencing Queens, my husband and I yell “Take me to Queens!” a la Eddie Murphy in Coming to America. I have a real fondness for that borough for that reason alone.

Yup, it’ll take about a year. I dropped a steel grate on my big toe last June while changing a water filter and my entire toenail fell off. As of June this year, I just about had a big toenail again.

Yup, there were Nazi toys. Not surprisingly, they were fucked up:

You can see some of Kadija Saye’s work here: scroll left for more of her posts. She had an amazing eye.

Just out of curiosity: Is the Sun-Times the “conservative” paper in Chicago? Like the Boston Herald or the NY Post? Because she certainly seems to be writing for a “Fox News” audience.

Having taken classes to convert to Judaism (though I haven’t done so yet, and may not) I can confirm that circumcision as an adult is no joke and involves multiple stitches and a lengthy recovery period. I would... be surprised if anyone did it for a fad like celebrity Kabbalah, but it’s not like I know Guy Ritchie,…

The Free Market at work!

How long does it take to send someone to Mars again?

I wouldn’t be surprised if it came out that the Trumps eat pediatric cancer patients for breakfast.

He is a piece of work in many ways; among other things, he owes $140k in child support to his second ex-wife. Per wikipedia: “Higgins and his second wife, Rosemary “Stormy” Rothkamm Hambrice, have three children. They divorced in 1999. During the runoff campaign, a lawsuit was filed against Higgins seeking unpaid…

I’m fine with this. (Also, the header pic is of Harvard Business School, which is across the river and a separate entity from Harvard College, the undergraduate institution.)

I googled Lynda Carter’s costume. It’s red white and blue, and there are white stars on a blue background, but it’s not like she’s wrapped in the American flag. She could just as easily be repping Australia.

Right. There is probably not much overlap between “people who read Goop and take it seriously” and “people who actually have heavy metal poisoning,” now that I think about it.

Morgellons! I don’t believe in it, but man, it freaks me out just the same. The Mayo Clinic even has a page on it:
