Does everyone think Amy is utterly unforgivable for burning Jo’s book, or does she just seem that way to me because I’m a big sister and have written book manuscripts?

SB 562 is working its way through the California legislature. Some text...

This makes me sad. Denial is a hell of a drug. It really is an amazing thing. I was a drug addict and lost my car and was evicted and finally came clean to my parents, no pun intended. When I told them I was an addict they would *not* believe me. We fought for days. They just couldn’t handle the news.

I have said this before and it never stops being true: Donnie sounds like someone trying to have a serious conversation on a ball of cocaine. I really can’t listen to him talk, and when I read the shit he said, he sounds like a puppy that has too many shiny objects and noise makers around it.

Imagine how he will feel when he learns about things like the above. “It’s your kid, just get your looks back”. Hopefully Trump will be dead by then and he won’t have to live with him.

Eastern European mail-order brides—and let’s not kid ourselves, that’s what Melania is for all intents and purposes—generally are very good at keeping up appearances and staying in loveless marriages to get what they want. I had a boss who got one and genuinely thought she loved him...until he discovered, after she’d…

Apparently throwing reproductive rights under the bus is a-ok for Bernie when it suits his agenda.

“on one issue”

Yes.

Now that Girls is over he’s going to collaborate with Lena Dunham on her next project. He’s SUCH a Shoshanna!

You seen how many words are in that thing? A lot! Not reading that. Better to just pick out the stuff you like and skip the rest. That’s what Jesus would do.

I often hear about child-free folks feeling pressured by others or getting these questions about not having children. I wonder, do they live in a completely shitty city? I’m in the North East US and at 35 (parter is also in their thirties and we’ve been married for several years), we just never get these questions…

Reading this article about that book (“Shattered”) on Wapo makes me physically ill. This part, in particular, is just devastating:

How lovely of him to be so frank and forthright. It takes a lot to say ‘I had some blind spots — or perceptual filters — and I needed help’. If one can ascertain this at a young age, how well it will serve him personally and politically. That there may be other ways of seeing and it takes nothing away from me to…

I love a good protest, but now is time for results:
