He sounded like he was spreading the Lord of Light’s message from Game of Thrones in that speech. Next time we see him, he’ll be dressed all in red.

My husband actually ended up purchasing me a vintage engagement ring, because Edwardian jewelry design is much more my jam. What I find interesting is that you can find contemporary ring designs with that more ornate setting style in sterling silver with semiprecious stones, but in contemporary gold and platinum…
A lot of parents have not learned that skill.
This is my plan for when I have a house. Right now I have to make my get-togethers child-free, because there is no other part of the apartment.
“There’s almost no one on earth I care enough about that I’m willing to put on a costume to attend their event.”
Yeah, I once set up a holiday happy hour to which 3/20 people showed. I mainly just felt embarrassed/bad for the restaurant. Also annoyed by the people who expect me to go to 2 hour lunches once a month that they couldn’t be bothered to even rsvp.
My favorite is the silver ball of yarn, because it seems like the kind of item a girl in a fairytale would have, and it might have magical properties, or it might be an inheritance from her dead mother, or a gift from the Queen of the Fairies, or she might trade it away to get out of a jam with the malevolent type of…
So, end the program that allowed my husband’s family to move here when he was a child. Got it. I always hate this man and everything he stands for, but it’s extra fun sometimes to be reminded of the ways in which my family is everything he hates.
Yes! We definitely watched Selena once a year.
I took Spanish for 4 years in high school, and my memory of it is that, rather than becoming remotely competent in the language, we spent August through October working on ofrendas for Dia de los Muertos, and November through May learning about Frida Kahlo. Occasionally we filmed a skit or parody song about how to…
(She’s also just a much better debater than Sanders. Her debate performances were what convinced my on-the-fence sister to support Clinton in the primary.)
Letting Sanders run at all when he wasn’t really a Dem is my main gripe against the party, but at this point it is done. (And I get how they thought he would be less likely to Nader from inside the primary than outside it. They were just wrong.)
If I let Jeff Goldblum read my palm, I’m not so much “falling for it,” as I am “in on it.” That man is sexy AF.
“Jeff Goldblum (though to be fair, he always asked for consent before he groped but still)“
The Family Stone was so terrible! That family was sooo mean.
Now playing
I’m seeing a lot of dislike here for the original movie, but if John Hannah shows up to read a W.H. Auden poem every season, I am 100% on board.
Cultural change (though frustratingly slow), is, I think, the way in which this plan eventually collapses. TV, movies, etc that present abortion as healthcare and a societal good. (There was a plot on the show Crazy Ex-Girlfriend along these lines.)
A) Are these fuckers embracing the Aristotelian notion that emotions and soul reside in the heart rather than the brain? Because the heartbeat signifies the development of a pump to move blood around the developing body.
I’ve never won, partly because November is so terrible for me. The closest I got was 36,000 words, and then Thanksgiving with the in-laws blew it to smithereens. But I just really like doing it, so I keep trying. There’s also Camp NaNoWriMo in April and July, which I have tried. They are better months for me, but with…
