Double consciousness, always relevant.

Chris Hayes has always had a Chandler-esque quality, and so I randomly do a "Could I beeee...." when he's talking. My husband laughs. Since this probably is not all that funny, I know I married the right guy.

fixed.

I laughed at the first puppy and cat duo b/c the cat was like "nah, bruh" (but not aggressively!) and puppy sulked off.

FALSE. If you roll under, it's harder to grab the business end of the paper. It's forever rolling behind the roll, against the wall, rather than in front of the roll right next to your hand. Physics.

My favorite scene? Nope. Call me back when he is lip syncing "Come here, Loverboy" and doing the ChaCha.

I kind of wish he had a stuffed animal dancing partner if only to mimic the lift.

That is terrible. You should fix that immediately. Patrick Swayze was a national treasure. Dirty Dancing, Road House and Point Break are all essential viewing, and I say this as a film snob who loves Lynch and Almodovar. The Swayze transcends all taste.

Maybe I started peeing in there because my cat was doing it all along.

"Isn't it interesting how she alternates her right paw and her left paw? It's like I've always said.... Life.... Uh.... Finds a way."

Unfortunately, that weight issue is extremely common for those who grow up in such situations. Either they overeat to avoid wasting food or they restrict their food intake so others have more (I was the latter and it contributed to an eating disorder down the line). Our culture influences our cognition so growing up…

this means so much. i grew up low-income and my dad always made sure we had food on the table. even if it meant watering down potato soup to spread it out over longer periods of time. lots of peanut butter sandwiches on stale bread. but i was aware of how precarious the situation was and it was very stressful. that's…

I wish I could say it astounds me, but I've met some of those people. Humanity isn't their strong suit.

I wonder if Katy Perry is going to eat her words and help pay for the halftime show.

I taught a preschool class and we were doing a unit on the 5 senses. For "taste" we had the kids sample some different things that were sour, salty, sweet ... and we had cocoa powder for "bitter".

I genuinely read the whole thing thinking it was going to end up being sleep paralysis or a hypnagogic hallucination. Pretty scary that it wasn't.

She's got to not want Fitz first.
