I’m married to a Texan who actively never wants to live there again and thinks they are all idiots. If you know Texans, you know how huge that is. I’m so saving this picture for him hahahahaha.

I think it really doesn’t matter what someone’s preferences are in dating. I think it’s good to always have an open mind, granted, but someone can be anti-fat shaming and prefer to date someone thin. Someone can fight for economic justice and a stronger social safety net yet still prefer to date someone with a job.…

I think the point is less about raising or lowering standards and more that you should like what you like, but examine why you like the things you do. There’s no harm in it, and you’ll probably learn something about yourself.

Back when I was dating (I think the earth’s crust was still cooling), I rejected outright anyone with babies/wanted babies; lived with parents; no job; poor education; didn’t like animals; drinking problem. I gave zero fucks about who thought it was “mean” or “judgy” - I know how much and what kind of drama I kind…

i think it’s really sad that a lot of people won’t consider dating someone who doesn’t have a job when the reason they may not have a job is disability. no-one seems to think of us (an unemployed disabled person), no matter what the reason for lack of employment is. i get that no one wants to take on a burden, but if…

Oh, suuuuure, I’M the one in the greys!

Oh, suuuuure, I’M the one in the greys!

those ankle flares just make it look like the model had some kind of insane growth spurt halfway through the day, and she just has to awkwardly wear too short pants until she can go home and change into something that fits.

So close to returning to this classic look:

The Things We Made to Confuse the Aliens

A pretender at being Chinese,

To be fair, my comment-writing career was going nowhere as Chad Waspington III.

That was beautiful, very moving.

I don’t know if you can make a “game” out of slavery, period. Can you make a game out of Japanese interment camps? Holocaust atrocities? Idi Amin? Pol Pot? Starving in North Korea? These are topics with too much weight and gravity to reduce to a game.

I once went to a screening of “On Death Row”, a documentary series by Werner Herzog in which he interviews people on death row. At least one of whom was a terrifying psychopath who may not have even remembered all the murders he was guilty of, because at a certain point it’s not about the number, you know?

I’m embarrassed to admit that I’ve wasted countless hours that could have been used for doing something "constructive" by choosing to watch Deadly Women marathons instead. What can I say, I'm a ghoul, not to mention that there's something fascinating to me about seemingly normal people who become suddenly (or really,…

Crime fiction shows like Law & Order SVU, CSI, and Bones, like ID, all boast a majority of women viewers, and as early as 2008, universities nationwide were attributing the surging amount of women in forensics programs to the “CSI effect” of seeing women represented on television as scientists and detectives.

Mr. Pirate calls I.D. the “Kill Your Husband” channel. He may/may not have come home on multiple occasions to see me, half-asleep on the couch, watching every show that comes on.

Who the bleep has the most bat shit tone to it...like weird sad trombone “and he was a child molester”. It’s so odd and completely compelling.

CANDICE DELONG FOR PRESIDENT!!!
