I do wonder why. And it pisses me off, believe me, particularly when there were some excellent alternatives. She’s everything wrong with the political establishment. She’s in bed with corporations, and I don’t believe a word she says about cracking down on Wall Street. I have full faith that a Hillary Presidency will…

Let’s get one goddamn thing straight: You don’t care in the least about the people of Iraq or Libya. You’re welcome to condemn Hillary for voting in favor of the war as well as her decision to intervene in Libya; as matters of policy, sure, you can object to those choices (and to be clear, I absolutely agree that they…

Using Trump tweets as a style guide- sad!

People who reject the feminist label to be a ‘humanist’, and people who believe in All Lives Matter over Black Lives Matter are examples of people who stand in the way of social progress. They’re obstacles to a better, equal society. They help to validate the opinion that disadvantaged groups aren’t actually…

Can “nom nom”s get a double pox?

So, the options are throwing the cat out of a car or giving it away to a stranger on Twitter? Instead of going to an organization that specializes in rehoming cats, particularly an elderly cat that may have health issues?

I tried to like her podcast but could not finish one episode. As much as I love memoirs this one is a hard pass.

Chapter 5: How to Make Your Home Pet-Free in 140 Characters or Less

So excited!! But also, if you guys decide to do another live blog on Jezebel, can you not invite the Gawker dudes? They were so horrendously repulsive that I quit the live blog after about 20 minutes. I get enough lady hate from living in the south, and living in America in general. I don’t need it in my safe place.…

Walter Cronkite would be proud of the jezebel investigative reporters for uncovering the “stunt” of an organized distribution of signs at the DNC convention. Yes, the organized distribution of placards has been standard operating procedure at political conventions for decades, but the reporters for jezebel don’t know…

Crying shame that the liveblog was fairly free of smug snarkness, that is until Hillary started speaking, than suddenly out came the magnifying glasses looking for the slightest reason to make snarky comments about anything Hillary said. Sickening, absolutely sickening. Some people are clueless of the magnitude of…

I’m bugging out of this ‘liveblog’. Maybe I misunderstand what such a thing is, but I expected to read what Clinton is saying, and the reaction to it. Not a bunch of bickering, pizza references, self-congratulation, and periods of silence. Liveblooog.

Looks like the answer to that question is either no, or they are pretty naive about how hard it’s been to get health benefits for 9/11 first responders who have had lasting health problems due to breathing in the polluted air at ground zero.

Just so much love in this convention. I’m a cynical-as-fuck, ex-Republican, side-eyed Democrat, but I’ve found so much of this incredibly moving and genuine. The speakers are amazing. The crowd is diverse in so many more ways that the GOP convention was. It has drama. It has moments of near-chaos, only to be cleared…

Dresses or skirts would come with a host of extra worries. Tights or no tights? Is the wind blowing? Pants are the better option, no matter what her ankles look like.

Lol did you really delete my reply to this? You’re the worst dude.

OoOoOoO now we’re going to talk about FHA like it’s a NORMAL down payment. Right. Let me unpack this:

If I brought the cost of the ring I bought to our mortgage broker and said "here's my downpayment", they would have kindly pointed me to the dumpster behind Best Buy and offered a modestly-sized cardboard box. I still would have had to take out a loan, though.

And most importantly, you get to be self righteous in comment threads about engagement rings. And who can put a price on that?
