They’re using Personal Shoppers for this, so they’re Wal*Mart employees...around here associates start at $12, and I think Personal Shoppers start around $14. Actually pretty good pay (more than I get working in a factory)...a lot of the problem is that they want to start people with only a few hours a week, and then…

Kiwibots and most likely these at Indiana aren’t robots or AI, more like sophisticated remote control cars. They’re run by Colombians for $2 an hour (at Kiwi) or some other grossly underpaid worker in a foreign country. They plot the waypoint for it every 5 seconds, and run multiple units at once to step in with…

That is a great one, Wes Craven’s meta moment before the meta-slasher craziness that Scream started just a couple years later

The best horror sequel is, as always, Wes Craven’s New Nightmare. It’s a horror film about making a horror film, starring the actual actress who starred in the original horror film being terrorized by the monster from that horror film. It’s so meta, it’s amazing.

Is this satire? I feel like I missed the joke here.

This reminds me of the Blumhouse movie that I watched this weekend called Pure (Hulu). It's a really unsettling dive into the evangelical purity culture and it has Sailor J in it and the girls wear white for the entire movie. I highly recommend it! 

Bundt. BUNDT. Such casual treatment of baked goods is appalling.

I just got back from a meeting for the Rocky Horror Shadow Cast and celebrating the fact that I, a New Person, gave input and ideas that were enthusiastically adopted. (For example: the Virgins in the audience will wear tiaras to denote their newness to the wonderful craziness. My idea! Yay!)

And eventhough they were able to shield their children from the horrors of TV, their kid couldn’t get into college.

As someone with a lot of curly hair, I forever love my scrunchies because they don’t get tangled in my hair. Nothing’s gonna slip out of mine.

I don’t like nutmeg so I can’t get into pumpkin spice. But the hate is so ridiculous.

I feel like judging people for enjoying pumpkin spice was amusing in 2013, and got kinda tired by 2015. I personally have embraced my basic fall being. Pumpkin spice reminds me of the fancy Barnes & Noble in the town I grew up in and browsing the music and movies section, and all the promise and possibilities I…

It’s simple, just do what I did: sleep with your ex on Sunday night of the long weekend. You'll be dying to get back to work so you have literally anything else to think about.

No snark here at all. I’m 50 and been around a few blocks. My best advice is to plot your own path. I’ve been working at the same company for 13 years now. I liked my job, the company is solid, but was bored. Yes, it was stressful and busy, but I was still bored with what I was doing. I was good as hell at it and…

None. After he walked out on me and the kids I made a big point of continuing to go absolutely everywhere that I liked because fuck him, I own all these places and HE can go find somewhere new if it bothers him. 

One year, a 94 year old relative was randomly lucid and healthy enough on Thanksgiving morning to get out of her bed at assisted living. She said she wanted a McRib. So we all stopped food prep and piled in a few cars to pick her up from assisted living and went right over. Still the best Thanksgiving meal I’ve had.

This reminds me of that time that Hermann Goering had a recurring role on “My Three Sons.”

I think it might have hurt me! I only got into one of the 3 schools I applied to, and one of the ones that rejected me told me that I didn’t use enough “academic jargon” in my essay. (My first clue that continued academia was going to be super-pretentious and not for me.)

I haven’t ever really had a good birthday. It always seems to fall on a Tuesday or Wednesday. The weather is always super shitty (blizzards, ice rain, etc). But one year when I was a few months into my first adult job in Florida and living alone, my sis flew to visit and we went to Disney World together. It was truly…

My 10th birthday party.
