I live in Washington so we’re 100% vote by mail and have been since I’ve been old enough to vote. I’ve never stood in line to vote, and I have to say it’s amazing. The ability to sit in your pajamas, on your couch, at 9am on a Saturday, and sit and research topics you don’t feel informed about before you vote has been…

He should just hire Wendy’s social media team to run his campaign and be done with it.

I think it has definitely made a difference in how quickly I recover after spraining an ankle, and prolonged the amount of time between ankle sprains. I think if I was proactive and did my exercises regularly, I could maybe stop spraining them altogether, but I’m lazy and forgetful. There are a ton of different…

I used to have a pair of Brooks that of course (of course!) got discontinued and now I can never find anything nearly as perfect for my running style. I have terribly weak ankles that years of physical therapy cannot cure, and shoes with lots of padding in the heel are just another sprained ankle waiting to happen.…

I thought we already did?

Their family tree is a wreath.

This isn’t even an unusual timeline of events. A lot of times patients seem to be getting better, even getting release from the hospital, before going into catastrophic decline. I’m not hopeful though. I fully expect him to make a full recovery in a matter of days (thanks cocktail of experimental drugs), never wear a…

 Someone didn’t read beyond the headline...

Schadenfreude aside, there’s really nothing good that can come out of this. No matter what happens, the rest of us are fucked.

Wall Ball, not dodgeball. We didn’t get Nick, you think we had enough money for more than one ball?

Come children, gather round and let me tell you the tale of the days before there were 8 different ESPN stations.  I was raised in the dark ages before direct tv and TiVO, so rich people had satellite, and the rest of us had whatever list of 40 channels that came with your cable package, and 7 of them were C-Span. If…

Kayden, Brayden, Leighden, Starden, Jenayden, Hayden, Lilayden, and Okayden don’t need daddy to take paternity leave when mommy stays home with them. 

You nailed it. You can drive in any direction outside of Seattle for 45 minutes in pretty much any direction and find nothing but lifted trucks with confederate flag bumper stickers. 

There’s also video from that night of a cop repeatedly shooting a protester in the groin with a paint ball gun, after he was already on the ground.

This exactly.  While he certainly will get more exposure (and hopefully that will lead to help) than Jim, who lives in the bus stop 3 blocks from my house, everyone in this situation is deserving of help. America is terrible at helping people with mental health issues, which is unsurprising because we’re terrible at…

“This year’s winner earned their award by having all the best words. The most perfect words. It’s beautiful really.”

“When you test, you have a case. When you test, you find something is wrong with people. If we didn’t do any testing, we would have very few cases.”

NEW 5 3 Stages of Grief:

I’m shocked that he doesn’t like an intelligent, confident, black woman.  Just shocked. 

Years ago I used to work for a facial plastic surgeon, whose practice was about half cosmetic, and half reconstructive (broken noses, skin cancer, etc). I thought he was a wonderfully talented surgeon, and he would really only do subtle cosmetic work, where people still looked like themselves, just fresher and well…
