The Saturday after Sandy Hook, I got very, very drunk at a friend’s Xmas party, so I slept over. In the morning, I crept downstairs for water and Advil, and happened to see a newspaper on the porch. I hadn’t seen an actual newspaper in ages, so I grabbed it and took it back to bed to read. The entire front page

Domestic violence: Wrong, no question. As a survivor myself, I can attest to the fact it’s hella underreported and causes long-term psychological and emotional damage.

The commercial (or whatever we consider them - trailer) looked excellent, but I was hesitant, thinking we get enough privileged brat BS with our current “president” and his obnoxious family.  If the story/craft is more than the usual, easy treatment, I would totally be willing to jump in.  :)

I was the HIPAA trainer and compliance person for a mid-sized health insurance brokerage for 2+ years. My mind immediately started tallying up what is not a disclosure, but a breach. Add to that being a deliberate breach for financial gain?? Big, big problem for whomever gave out the info, as well as the

Truth. I adopted a little rescue kitten while in the depths of depression, barely making it out of a horribly abusive marriage, and on month 9 of being unemployed. I knew that if I went away, there was life insurance for my kids, loving grandparents and an auntie who would keep their world together (I recognize this

Take care, internet stranger....  Many of us have been there, and we promise it gets better.  :)

Ugh. He’s just so...gross. As a dumb adolescent, watching 21 Jump Street, I found him dreamy and dopey. Flash forward, now he’s a jerk to dogs and a physical and emotional abuser of his partner. He can fuck right off. I’m surprised that JK Rowling continues to work with him, as (in the public realm) she seems

Personally, I don't think Depp looks ok.  Holy yikes!

Guns should be gone.  GONE.

My death?  His death? Either would be fine, really.

Oh, I’m quite sure they would figure out a way to screw everyone equally. :) It just seems like, in a just society (I know, an insane proposition), a residency rule/law that is specifically applied to students should have equal repercussions, both positive and negative. Then I wake up and realize I’ve only been in

And, somewhat off-topic, I’m quite a fan of the talented musical outfit Muse, and I’d prefer that Kobe not besmirch their good name with his crummy...bullshit ‘inspirational’ (not) videos.

EXACTLY.  My first thought was, “My kids are doing pretty damn well - I’d prefer that they do NOT become rapists.”

I mean, not violent retaliation, maybe, but something both thoroughly aggravating and not prosecutable. Maybe rub foul old shrimp into the laces of his trainers or find out his cell number/email (hi front desk workers!) and use it to spam the shit out of him? It’s SO difficult to cause satisfying, retaliatory discomf

I don’t know that he “thinks” at all, but it will definitely serve to make the CHUDs who follow him see themselves as ALSO high-intelligence. You see, because they also loved his amazing performance. Thing about people who intentionally keep themselves dumb? They are very responsive to false praise and

I think the flaw in their reasoning is, those “resident” students would no longer be paying out-of-state tuition, which the university system might have a problem with.... I mean, it’s a completely fucked-up idea to start with, but maybe appealing to the craven love of money present in 99% of politicians (and various 

Definitely. It’s totally a buyer’s market. It was waaaaay too easy for people to set up a farm or a dispensary, and the populace (even including the surrounding states) cannot possibly consume the amount produced. Now, if it wasn’t still FEDERALLY illegal, Oregon could ship out of state, adding further to their

The city is becoming pretty progressive, but with the N Idaho timber hicks and the conservative LDS influence, it's oftentimes near-intolerable to be a very liberal atheist.  But, I've been doing it since I was a teenager, so I make do, and travel to better places when I can.  When both my kids are in college in a

From the Boise area, a delightful little town called Huntington is about 15-ish miles from the border, takes about an hour, totes worth it. Funny, there was an article in 2017 that the town’s total ANNUAL revenue had more than doubled in just the handful of months the dispensary had been open. Last time I was there,

I border your delightful state (I’m in the awful red one to the east). I make monthly trips over to my wonderful neighboring green states, adding tax revenue via dispensary, as this bullshit is too tough to cope with while sober. :) I must admit, I do utilize Oregon when I can, as their weed tax is only 17% (I think
