He gave me a very nice “oh, of course, of course words matter” response. I could almost see the “sweetie” at the end of it.

My own dear mother, of whom I am very fond and from whom I inherited nearly all of my feminist liberal bitchitude, is resolutely voting third party and posting about it ALL THE TIME. But I can’t bring myself to unfollow. You do it for me!

This exact exchange is happening on my FB feed right now.

Why build, when you could enjoy this (probably very fancy) DoubleTree, located conveniently across the street from a shopping mall?

You can’t wipe away tears with Bennies. That paper just isn’t absorbent.
