People, quit kicking my childhood. It’s already dead.

It’s pretty shoddy advertising - what do Bert and Ernie have to do with the tagline “out of the stoneage”? Why not use Fred and Barney from the Flintstones if you’re going balls to the wall with unlicensed material. Yeah, this was slapped together to get publicity knowing it would be quickly taken down. That, or…

Besides, VDs and muppets has been done before...

Testing positive is good in an STD test?

Also, they know that a “positive” test means they were implying that Ernie has a VD (is that the term we use today or is it still STD?) and was ignorant about the results, which, uh, yeah can be seen as “tarnishing.”

Sent from my son onboard:

Bernie has also proven on numerous occasions that you can outspend your opponent and still lose. Which was the case for him not long ago when he outspent Hillary and lost multiple times.

How is this either a “major upset” or at all “unexpected”? Clinton didn’t contest Indiana, didn’t spend a cent on ads or any time there while Bernie was pouring in millions, even in the past few days her surrogates clearly said they didn’t really expect to win it, polls or no.

Slow down on the champagne buddy.

Yep.

Does anyone else fear that the constant awarding a “winner” and “loser” in votes that hand out delegate via percentage points, so really Bernie won 5-8 delegates more than Hillary (closing in on her by 5%, maybe? I don’t do math) but it revs up excitement about something that isn’t that huge of a win....anyways.....…

If we don’t laugh we’ll just end up crying Deerlady.

I was a Bernie supporter for most of the primary but now that shit is getting real I’m in full Hillary mode. She’s going to pummel Trump into the ground and I’m really excited to see her kick some ass now.

It almost feels like we’re headed for the bad future that your eyepatch-wearing future self would come back to warn you about.

Now, I'm freaking out how close Trump is to the presidency. This whole Republican nomination process has been an unmitigated nightmare of epic proportions. Everyone was horrible in their own ways.

There’s something about this headline that made me do an ironic double take.

Leah Chase sounds like an amazing woman! Hopefully, there will be a run-down of the winners on this week’s episode of Burnt Toast (Food52 podcast, highly recommend).

a cool thing about doing EMDR/ truama therapy is that i feel like i’m no longer a victim or a survivor. it’s like a thing that happened that i no longer have any connection to

I’ve been working on a book and sharing very intimate content. A frequent response to my stories about childhood sexual abuse is that I’m so ‘very brave’ or some kind of hero. Though I don’t discount our experiences, I know when I meet fellow abused brethren, I avoid using those terms. It was not bravery or heroism.…
