I don’t have an answer for you, but I wonder whether this is treatment for depression—I’ve been hearing about that lately.

I wonder whether facilitated communication works by the same ideomotor effect.

Also used to predict whether a pregnancy will result in a boy or a girl.

And her father’s eyes.

A male friend of mine posted “Me too.” Then, later, he posted something else, like “I was part of the problem.” He talked (in mostly vague terms) about ways he mistreated (or might have mistreated) women, and he asked for forgiveness and promised to do better.

I’ve had to take a Facebook break since this started. When I added my “me too,” I had no idea how upsetting it would be—not so much cathartic as triggering. I’ve been furious and depressed and all kinds of messed up.

Meanwhile, my partner, who isn’t on FB, probably has no idea that all of this is happening in my…

Yeah, but when they ran the actual Trump clip during Update, it seemed like Trump was imitating Baldwin’s Trump. Weird.

A six-pack of whatever local beer all the beer snobs favor.
A six-pack of cranberry-lime seltzer.
A six-pack of Diet Dr Pepper.
A bottle of shiraz (don’t forget corkscrew if needed).
Green grapes.
Mixed nuts, deluxe, one jar/can.
Candied ginger.
A sofa that’s at least 5.5 feet long.
At least two lamps.
An oscillating fan.
Unsce…

I want this as my life rider.

Yeah, they’re practically Unitarian Universalist. It’s a denomination I keep intending to explore, since the UUs aren’t quite Jesusy enough for me.

Me too! I cheated on my eye tests.

Did it teach empathy? Or just an all-or-nothing approach to a complex issue?

I’m not saying that Juben has done this, but I think one of the dangers of being a straight-edge kind of person is a sort of blindness to the danger. (God knows it was easy for me to be all virginity-till-marriage until I finally got an inkling of what desire feels like.)

I keep thinking of the version of Sleeping…

What’s the stat? I’ve heard something like 80 to 85% of people with bipolar develop a substance use issue. I don’t know if that’s current, though.

Christina Applegate has fought breast cancer and has had a successful career. So have Melissa Etheridge, Robin Roberts, Sheryl Crow, and Kathy Bates.

Ingrid Bergman died of breast cancer, as did Fannie Lou Hamer, Rachel Carson, Dusty Springfield, and Lynn Redgrave.

I don’t think one of these groups represents “good…

Bonus points for it being passed down to another generation.

There will be a vigil in Northern Virginia on Wednesday.

She’s the real thing.

I just read the Slate article posted above, the one written right after the attack by a Latin gay man who said that he wasn’t there, but he heard from friends afterward, including the message: “I appreciate you.”

I can’t ever remember not being able to buy alcohol on Sundays here. However, you can’t buy alcohol in grocery stores, with only a very few exceptions. Being able to buy beer with my frozen pizza is the only thing I miss about my brief sojourn in Northern Virginia (that, and easy access to clubs like IOTA).
