Yeah I’ve heard that. It was my secular preschool of all places that made me switch and I’ve had people argue with me that it couldn’t have happened. So I hold a pencil for them. Fist gripped resting on my ring finger. Elegant!

I’m a natural lefty born at the tail end of “left handedness means mental deficiency” so was forced to write right. What’s the word for ambi but sucks equally? At any rate, making that L shape with my hands was a lifesaver.

Mea culpa! My father in law brought us Christmas gifts from China. We accepted them graciously (even though we celebrate Sithmas). Burning or burial?

And I never addressed the Grab Your Wallet thing. I’ve had the updating spreadsheet bookmarked for WEEKS. Where you been?

I did forget something. I pretty much exclusively buy New Zealand whites (Marlborough region) and so I guess I do support their “no fatties” immigration policy. And French Beaujolais, so I’m supporting their anti-Muslim no headscarves in public schools policy. I am the fucking WORST.

Only vaguely related.....I cried when Han died but I am also super glad cranky pants magee won’t be grumping up my Star Wars any more.

You forgot about CVS!

She’s busy getting her Christmas shopping done at Walmart.

My charities are Operation Smile, Heifer International, and the Trevor project. My household lives on less than 20k/year because we are saving to buy land and refurbish a house with solar panels, a windmill, heat through wood stove warmed water pipes in the floors, a green house. We will produce pretty much everything…

I’m actually having so much fun tallying up my thoughtful consumerism, I thought I’d also catalog the nonreligious stuff too.

For funzies I’m also going to add (having a rough poop this morning, I’ve had time to think) we’ll only help if you pray Savation Army, the disabled don’t deserve a fair wage Goodwill, fuck the American people and their economy Bank of America/Wells Fargo, gay people aren’t people Barilla, and I haven’t even had any…

This explains so much. Wow. You really are the epitome of your anti-intellectual people aren’t you?

As a matter of fact you would be correct! I don’t spend my money at places that do sketchy fundie bullshit.

Yup. And yuck.

You know who else was a ginger? Judas. Coincidence?

I am currently closer in age to Gabreille Carteris (during the show) than I was to any of the younger ones when it aired. Something feels wrong about that sentence but I can’t figure out what.

Megan Follows-Anne of Green Gables. Original Annie. I’m out of roles that are actually red heads.

Because I’m 37 and the time they were popular I was pretty busy drinking and dancing at after hours clubs that had turn tables not jukeboxes or 13 year old girls.

Who is that?

I’m not going argue, never underestimate people like Trump. But I also think it’s unlikely. I think it’s a safe bet that someone would have reacted negatively, and that it’s cheaper to count on outrage than it is to pay someone.
