We need to decriminalize marijuana possession and quit arresting people for issues such as unpaid parking tickets and failure to pay fines. That should free up some time for criminal courts to deal with rape cases.

We have a ridiculous song we sing to our youngest cat. When he was a kitten, he used to like to get between us in bed and get under the covers with just his head sticking out. He looked like a little burrito, so sometimes we call him Burrito Boy. And sometimes, I sing a little lullaby that goes like this:

I’m sure going to miss having a POTUS who pronounces words correctly. :( I have a sneaking suspicion “GYNA” is going to be the Trump equivalent of “nucular.”

Is that what happens? One time, I got home from school and took a quick drink of soda. Got a horrible pain in my chest. Next thing I knew, my mom was coming in from work, and she was beside herself because I was lying on the floor next to the case of soda. I always wondered what happened.

I was bitching to my mother (a hardcore Republican) about some of Trump’s cabinet picks. I said something about a potential pick not being a total disaster because “at least he has some government experience” (Trump ended up picking someone else). She went off on me, telling me that you shouldn’t have to have…

The past month has certainly had me on a rollercoaster of emotions. On November 9, I was too sad to get out of bed. The sadness persisted for a few days; then I got pissed. I called my representatives and wrote letters and tried to get someone in power to give a shit about what is going on. Now I’m pretty much…

I always joke that we’re lucky we don’t have kids. My husband would be spoiling them rotten! He indulges the cats with treats, water from the sink, and all other manner of nonsense, but it’s cute, so I can’t really be mad.

He lives a cushy life, all right. He refuses to drink out of a bowl, so my husband and I have to be at his beck and call when he’s thirsty. He runs into the living room to alert us of said thirst, and it’s our job to go turn on the bathroom sink and leave him alone to drink. If you look at him, he won’t do anything,…

The vet said it was a “cauliflower ear.” Something causes the blood to collect, and eventually (without treatment), the vessel bursts and the ear no longer stands up straight (he was a stray). He’s extremely odd, but I love him. Until recently, he didn’t know how to “cat” properly. Within the last few weeks, he’s…

Oh no! I hope you feel better soon. I had a bowel obstruction when I was 7; I don’t remember much (thank goodness), but I know it was painful and scary. Hope you’re on the road to recovery.

Wrong thread. Sorry!

Very weird! I BRIEFLY considered buying six Hatchimals and selling them on eBay (I have some major medical bills, and we are drowning in debt), but I felt it would be too grinchy, and I didn’t want to make life difficult for parents/grandparents/other relatives who just want to get little Timmy a toy. $25K worth of…

I love every single thing in that room, particularly the fireplace and L-shaped couch! You have great taste!

My husband’s little cousin is like this. The first year I went to Christmas Eve at his aunt’s house, the little girl got about 50 presents. The second her brother got a present, she was throwing a fit. So the next year, his aunt called me and said, “If you are going to bring presents for all the kids, leave them in…

I tried Baby Feet a few weeks ago. Question: Do you take baths or showers? One of the reviews I read on Amazon said that three friends did the peel together. One had amazing results, one had so-so results, and one saw no real difference. They figured out that the one with amazing results takes baths exclusively, the…

I LOVE that. Are there any instructions online? I would absolutely love to do one of these for my office.

My boss sent me to Landmark Forum one time. I made it about 20 minutes before I was like, “Fuck this shit” and walked out. Fortunately, they said if you left before lunch, you’d get a full refund, so boss wasn’t out any money. It was SO CREEPY and weird.

I wish I could go back and tell 2012 Regina Phalange that Mitt Romney is most definitely NOT the worst potential president ever. She would laugh and laugh.

Hey, I’m in the grays, but I voted for Hillary and think Trump is a disaster. I’ve been commenting here for about 10 years, but I got stuck in the grays when Gawker switched to Kinja.
