If you’re not at odds with your parents politically, you can ask for donations made in your name to orgs you support. I asked for some to ProPublica, Planned Parenthood and the ACLU this year. Last year for her birthday, I “got” my mom a tiger from WWF, so she’s adopted a tiger in the wild. Last year for Christmas,…

Happy Holidays, Jezzies!

Weirdly, a lot of signs point to the guillotine as the most “humane” way to put someone to death. It’s just so gruesome that it makes people squeamish so the state would rather torture someone as they die instead, apparently. I’m pretty anti-death penalty (partially because it is so damn expensive) but if we’re going…

When I first saw the host he was building I was like “Oh look, he’s been planning to kill Theresa for a while and is printing a new one to cover his tracks. Smart move.”
I was hella surprised when the next episode began and people were aware of Theresa’s demise.

Your nephew sounds so stinking adorable and I’m going to start saying great things make me “shake like a party dress” so thank you for that.

I have a friend who works at Starbucks and all this reminds me of is his encounter with the Merry Christmas idiots last year.
Basically, lady orders some latte under the name Merry Christmas. Stands and watches my friend make it. Sees him go to do the part with the milk and says “oh, I wanted that non-fat.” “Oh, ok,…

I thought he looked a lot better before he turned into a live action version of the Hulk. That being said, he’s got a very handsome face and he seems like a really sweet, fun guy. But I was hoping for Idris Elba or Oscar Isaac :/

You are not alone. I travel to find record breaking thrill rides and have a season pass to the closest park to me with roller coasters but I fucking HATE horror movies. When I went to see Ghostbusters earlier this year the first time, the opening sequence in the basement made me think “Well fuck maybe I shouldn’t have…

I’m so sorry! How terrible.

I don’t think she’s gone to court yet, it happened late Friday night/early Saturday morning. I’m not sure how much they can do for her since it’s not her ex, it’s her roommate’s. And the incident did involve him throwing bricks through windows, so maybe that’s enough of a weapon to up the charges? I don’t know. It’s…

Thank you for the idea! I volunteer with Red Cross so that was one of the first places I recommended, but I wasn’t sure if a situation like this is something they can help with?

I wanted to edit my post but it’s not letting me, so I hope all you lovely people see this. Thank you thank you thank you for the good vibes/thoughts/juju for my friend and even more for the advice. I’ve shared just about all of it with her and hopefully it will help her out! If you want to help further (or just want…

You are wonderful, thank you!

Last I heard he was still on the loose. They’re being protected by police until he’s caught, though. I hope they go for attempted murder on him because it’s ridiculous.

She’s a friend from childhood/high school and lives across the country from me now, so I’m not really sure, she’s in a region I’ve never spent time in. But thank you so so much! These are great resources that I didn’t even know existed.

That’s definitely a great idea, especially for helping to pay for surgery and stuff in the more long-term arena. She is on medicaid I THINK but I’m sure it’s still going to be expensive as hell. Thank you!

Jezzies! I usually don’t post on the socials, but I could use some help for a friend. Said friend was displaced when she, her husband and son were attacked in their apartment last night by a roommate’s psycho abusive ex. He not only beat the ever loving shit out of my friend and her husband but he also broke down…

Soooooooo.... SCOTUS?

Fun tool for tracking this sort of thing (and I mean fun in the whole “if this doesn’t go the right way we’re facing the apocalypse type of fun) is the New York Times Election Forecast. They average out the big polls, track by state, and update every few hours. A few days ago they had Hillary with a 93% chance of…

This is my favorite Freudian slip ever.
