*nod* It’s always weird and stressful no matter what side of the fertility battle you are on. I remember having the same feelings being late on birth control. Though apparently I need not have bothered, lol. But I’m usually a freaking CLOCK, so being late is definitely unusual for me. If I still haven’t started…

Considering the awful voting suppression for minorities, black people as a whole were not allowed to vote. And it’s STILL FREAKING HAPPENING, which is infuriating. (See the voting purge in my state, NC, and gerrymandering.) Yeah, women winning the right to vote was a huge deal, but it only enfranchised white women for…

Is the lateness a good thing or a bad thing? I’m late as well, and desperately hoping the fertility treatments worked. I hope whatever you want is what happens. Now I go back to my blanket fort to hide for the day. (I’ve been a little teary but my main symptom has been fatigue and dizziness in the afternoon. The…

It was an insidious program, too. Any regular person could purge voter rolls by mailing voters and if the mail gets returned, then they obvs. aren’t living there anymore and aren’t valid voters, ergo their registration gets cancelled. Considering that poor people, a larger majority of which are black in my state,…

Burr is a horrid little shit-stain. I voted for Deborah Ross in early voting, and I hope hope hope she wins. It’s way closer a race than I prefer. Burr needs to GO, and so does McCrory.

I like that idea.

This makes my framer heart weep. It’s all so horrible, but the wanton destruction of the family photos and the framed art/diplomas hurts me in a visceral way.

In regards to the peanut allergy thing, the beginnings of a theory that has come up is the idea that we are too clean as a society, and our immune systems now freak out about things because we weren’t introduced to all of the bugs and dirt like we used to be. I recently read an article about how the prevalence of…

... That particular show... which one are you talking about? There was this one from 2010...

Okay, her little “heh-heh” snicker as she’s getting into the driver’s seat made me fall of my chair laughing.

YAAAAAASSSS This is my music, this is my JAM. GIVE ME ALL THE MURDER BALLADS.

It just occurred to me that if Hillary wins, Bill will be the First Gentleman of the US, and FGOTUS isn’t really a good acronym. How would you even say it? Fu-goh-tus? (F)Goh-tus (silent F?) It just is awful. And lets be honest here. Bill will be known as the First Husband. FHOTUS almost works. Fuh-otis. You can just…

And this is why I plan to vote in my full Suffragette gear.

I understand the fake hormone feeling, but from the other end. I’m currently going through infertility, and I’m starting my first cycle of a drug that is supposed to help me ovulate. I don’t do it as well as I should, even though my period has been super regular all my life. Having a super regular period made not…

I remember reading the article and being so appalled. When I saw the follow up that the mother was being released I shed tears. Buzzfeed manages to do some top notch reporting and it’s often his deep under all the listicles and fluff and crap. Though I’m intensely obsessed with thier food videos and every so often I…

You mean he wants to bring back an unconstitutional, racist practice? What a shock.

My husband went by his middle name all his life. His parents started it, because they wanted to name him one name, and the grandad stepped in and went NO HE SHALL BE NAMED WILLIAM LIKE I AM AND MY FATHER BEFORE ME. No one ever called him William unless they were bill collectors. He wound up legally changing his name…

.... But in my work handbook, sick days are listed as paid time off for your sickness, or to take care of a family member who is sick. THAT COUNTS, YOU* BLOWHARD. Yeah maybe the soccer game is a bit shady, but if you are mad that an employee is taking a sick day to take their kid to the HOSPITAL (not even a doctor,…

I don’t use full-face makeup remover because I never wear foundation unless I’m doing a cosplay photo-shoot or something theater-like, but I use eye makeup remover religiously. I use Neutrogena’s eye makeup remover, but... but I pour it into the Mary Kay eye makeup remover bottle. The two removers work just as well…

Eeeeehhhhhh I think I’m gonna side with the Airlines and the FAA on this one. The phone explodes. That’s a damn sight more dangerous than hair gel, and is a known fact. I don’t think they are going to ban all cell phones, but requesting you don’t use the exploding phone in a pressurized tube hurtling through the sky?…
