I’ve always thought Ashley Biden somewhat intriguing due how to normal she appears. With that I mean, if you look at Joe Biden’s children, Naomi tragically died as a child, Beau was this true son of his father whose loss still haunts the family and Hunter is just an utter mess. And then you have, and I mean this in no…

As an old man over 40 who only recently got an Instagram account, where I post very boring pictures, I have to ask, who is the secret Instagram account for? Like he has a bunch of friends who want to see these posts about fucking and drugging and shit? Is that common? 

If this is 1776, why is she allowed to vote, hold office, or own property?

Carey Mulligan is FANTASTIC in this movie. I’d been dying to see it since the trailer launched - and I’m so glad I did. I’ve not been able to get this movie out of my head. It deserves ALL the accolades.

I would totally buy a bread tip book like that! Call it something like Bread: Rise and Fall, with tips about how to get the pretty bread to come out good and talk about how the wrong bread went wrong and I think a lot of amateur bakers would be interested. And that sourdough looks DEE-LICIOUS!

Very hard day today.

I had my last week of leadership training this week. It’s supposed to be part networking, but that mostly went out the window when we had to go virtual. I am not too sad about it now, since there wasn’t much leadership on display. Lowlights included “It’s not my job to lead [people I don’t supervise through] change,”…

If anyone read my entry for the spooky stories Halloween thing a few months ago, this was at the same piece of rental property.

I mean... this is a completely reasonable response.

I dated a guy who was polyamorous in a shitty unethical way and whenever I recognized that he was treating me disrespectfully he would lecture me for not being as “evolved” as he was and that I should read The Ethical Slut in order to be more informed about how our relationship should work. It all came to a climax one…

My career is in international logistics, so I’ve had to deal with all types over the past 30+ years. One immediately springs to mind:

I quit smoking about 12 years ago after having a pack a day habit for almost 20 years. At the time I was taking a course in college and was bussing to school. I was on day 3 of no smoking and was really struggling. Grumpy, shakey, felt like crap. So we stopped to let on some passengers and 2 guys got on the bus. I was…

I lost it at work on two guys who were being super shitty. I’m going to be light on details to keep this relatively short.

I want to note that I am generally a very chill person. The results of a chaotic childhood. Said chaotic childhood was also somewhat emotionally and psychologically abusive. Not to the point of “very, very bad” but it remained steadily on “unhappy” for my entire life, until I was finally able to put some distance…

Ten years ago, I decided to go back to college to get my associate’s degree that I didn’t get ten years before because I had a kid instead. (Long story.) I majored in Business Administration, and was doing well until I came up against the beast known as Managerial Accounting.

Lookatthat Sweetie!!! Our story got us into the Pissing Contest mentions. Miss you still, love you always.

I sometimes look at all of this and think we got really fucking lucky that they decided a narcissistic grifter who cares only for himself was their messiah while being trained by the religious right to be good little capitalistic marks who see buying the latest in tacticool gear as training for the end times which are…

Agree. Everytime I have soup for lunch, I hear her Best in Show golddigger character talking about her 93-year-old husband, “We have so much in common. We both love soup.”

Oh yes, very important to make people aware of this history of predatory behavior. It might be the thing that protects someone from becoming a victim.
A guy in my AA home group raped a sponsee of mine, causing her to relapse after decades of sobriety and to be hospitalized with a breakdown.

I’m worried that, without receipts, someone from the dude’s distant past will not be taken seriously. Especially if they want to remain anonymous and protect the identity of the survivors. Absolutely DO NOT out your friends as “evidence.”
