Fruit had nothing to do with it.

I was one of his ‘good, clean people.’ White, middle-class, educated, never been in trouble, healthy weight, non-smoker, seldom drinker, very few sexual partners/married, and could pass as a Christian. I was diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer at 29 years old, and found out I had a genetic disorder that puts me at

My 32 year old brother was in glowing perfect health but being hit by a car took his life. Fuck these assholes and their lack of compassion.

I heard this on the TV this afternoon and screamed “FUCK THAT GUY!!!!!” from the other end of the house. I’ve had a chronic degenerative disease since my youth and have spent a lifetime fighting like hell to stave off the damage. I live a pretty healthy lifestyle. And yet my body wants to fuck me over. 

The only reason you have trouble breathing is because you were greedy enough to start breathing in the first place.

My stage IV endometriosis/ resulting scar tissue/ nerve damage would like to occupy his body for a day or so, you know, just for shits and giggles.

Hey - Representative Horror Show. I run 16 miles a week in the woods, I mountain bike, I do yoga, meditation and dance. I’m also a trail guide. I don’t consume dairy or sugar or wheat.

Hey Brooks - you mean like the time I was fully vaccinated, boosters and all, and caught f@cking whooping cough at the age of 35 in the year 2016 because herd immunity is a thing of the past?

I admire Pence for coming up with this common sense solution to a very real problem.

“take off ur cardigan... take off ur second cardigan”

Charles and Diana’s pairing came about for much the same reason people have disaster sex - the need for human closeness and comfort during a tough time.

“...any number of different ways, and microwaves that turn into cameras, et cetera,” Conway said. “We know that this is just a fact of modern life.

But but but health savings account! That’ll do it. *insert a giant middle finger to the GOP here*

Tangentially related, Tom Price’s seat in Georgia’s 6th district is up for grabs and I’m doing my best to help Jon Ossoff win. He has the endorsement of living legend John Lewis, and actually has a chance to flip the district.

In a similar but unrelated note, I now bump into men who walk right into my path instead of moving to the side as we pass on narrow sidewalks.
