I’m just emotionally exhausted and need to share. We have family members living with us, one of whom is dying. The spouse is driving me nuts; granted, they* are probably being driven nuts by watching their spouse die. I love them. I get it. They need someone to talk to, but I can’t always be that person. They’ve taken…

Essentially, the flag has more rights than minorities. An inanimate object has more rights than minorities. It is considered a living object.

Well, my first response was, “Well, they’re a**holes. That’s why.” Also, the parks have been inaccessible to lower income households for a long time anyway; this only begins to put pressure upwards towards the middle class. Pair this with increasing taxes on the middle class, decreasing taxes on the rich, and…

I had no idea he directed that. I remember renting the film and not watching the whole film because it was just so terrible.

Yep. (Thinking: I explained this to you before.)

Wow. Men get hundreds of types of condoms and complain.

Oh, I think there probably was a POC who said something like, “Ahem, this seems like your trying to say that lighter skin is cleaner skin, which might come across, as I don’t know, kinda racist.” Then, white person explains, “Oh no, it doesn’t come across like that AT ALLLLLLL.”

Congratulations and best of luck!

May I add effete to your analysis of Gottlieb’s analysis?

Please keep talking. I loved your second quote in the first long post and the point about our adults giving us a head start. My aunt loved to read Agatha Christie (sp?) and other mysteries, which I gobbled up. Also, on her shelves were “great literature’s” novels and on my grandparents’ shelves Reader’s Digest…

Have you been searching for that special give for that special someone who has everything? Well search no more! For just 200 installments of 9.95 - yes that’s right, 9.95, you can purchase this authentic, Bronze Age pottery jar. We’ll throw in the toads heads free. Supplies limited.

I vote yes, too. We need to reward good where good is being done. Otherwise the kids who misbehave will get attention and reinforcement for doing all the bad. Go Feedbag!

Well that sounds like a little summer vacation - kidding. Glad you survived to have a shot of whiskey and your MomDuck is looking to a healthier lifestyle.

Word. I love the tutorials and/or workshops that begin, “My wife and I were vacationing in [insert exotic locale here] and here she is on the beach.” Oh so tiresome.

I’m not sure if you twitter, but if you’re looking for more women’s art and photography, then I recommend #womensart and @womenphotograph on Twitter. It’s really quite amazing all the amazing art and photography by women that is, essentially, swept under the rug. As an educator and an artist, I feel very inspired and…

This seems fairly typical of the photo world I once belonged to. “We love women - as long as they are naked, partially dressed, young, thin, and in front of my camera.” I follow some of the larger “photography communities” on twitter and tire of the “What do you think of this shot?” posts that inevitably end up being…

And by “lose my proverbial shit” I mean that I would weep, cry, blubber, and be overcome with happiness and probably ask him too many times why he couldn’t be our president again and if he couldn’t be our president would he please ask Michelle to run because that would be the best.

I, too, have been commenting for years but spottily at that. (New word, spottily.) I don’t really care about my status and usually try to read the grey comments anyway. Cheers. :)

Here I am hoping that Obama is visiting our school for the assembly next week and BMX derby is just a ploy because I would lose my proverbial shit if he or Michelle visited. If it really is some BMX derby, which I think it will be, I need to remember to bring my ear plugs and hope for a speedy presentation.

By porn posts do you mean the stories that someone has been sharing about raping victims who are unable to consent (including intellectually diabled and unconcious)? Anyway, I’m usually in the greys and have given up ever being in the black. Although, the policy is pretty stupid especially if someone has to wait for…
