My kid being in high school is very much like me being in high school. Everyone still ignores me. Perhaps I really am invisible.

mine says creepo, weirdo, weirdie, weirdy, spook.

Sure, why not.

i am also interested in the answer to this one

having a Diamond Age moment here

None. After he walked out on me and the kids I made a big point of continuing to go absolutely everywhere that I liked because fuck him, I own all these places and HE can go find somewhere new if it bothers him. 

Bretbug Stephens

please put some in my blue jeans, i am tired of getting bitten THROUGH them.

I’d like to see Bret Stephens work two hours in a telephone customer service or tech support job and then come at me about how bedbug is such a terrible thing to be called. What a fucking snowflake he is.

My ex used to be fine with it, but after he left he decided that anything the boys did at my place was Wrong and Should Not Be Encouraged. He was so into the idea that I was the Worst Thing Ever that he started drinking coffee because I don’t (he never did before he left). So now that we’re split up if the boys go…

I recreated this entire sign and framed it and hung it right above my toilet tank.

I am a mom to only boys (not on purpose, but it’s fine) and I don’t dig on this hashtag. My boys and I have a blast without having to be specific about our outward gender presentation, FFS. They wear kilts and nail polish and enjoy unicorns and rainbows and we all like comic books and sci fi and Legos and fairy tales.

ugh, I’m still stuck. (PC for work, no, I can’t negotiate, and iPhone for msg - so I can talk to the kids when they get home from school as they have iPads for school)

This is really making me miss Majestic.

I was sad when they remodeled our local Red Lobster because yes, it is super freaking dark in there now, and they got rid of the gigantic floor to ceiling saltwater fish tank that was so pretty.
