I wouldn’t mind seeing President Larry Wilmore. Seriously.

Michelle Obama.

This is going to sound strange, even to my own ears, but I’ve been too distressed/depressed to drink this week.I have plenty of booze in the house, but it’s gone undrunk. Maybe drinking mass quantities of alcohol alone in bed is a little taboo even for my taste, because the fact that I’ve spent a lot of time that I…

Every day?!

Would that include the 53% of white women who voted for Trump?

Came for this, was not disappointed. And I forgot how on point is it in these days. Thanks for this.

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows

I said below that this is good news because it will never get 2/3 of each house and will piss off all the Republicans, but it occurs to me now that if it does somehow pass - term limits for Congress are a popular proposal - it’s a little scary. Reducing the legislature’s power relative to the executive is kind of a…

B/C I AM A LEGGIST. LESS THAN TWO OR MORE THAN FOUR, GTFO.

I’m wary of people who have pet snakes.

What about millipedes? I’ve never seen a giant millipede on the NYC transit system, but what if there are like millions of them just beneath the surface waiting to squirm their way out? Millions of giant millipedes, each one several inches long with all those legs flailing around and each one stupid and hungry,…

Now i’m imagining app called FLOTUS4Ever that has a daily snippet from one of her speeches and an outfit of the day.
Holy hell, I would totally pay for that, especially if the money went to educational programs at Obama’s presidential museum.

The big cheese not only kissed me on the lips at our holiday party but did it in front of his wife...so hand raised.

When Hill went public with how Thomas had harassed her, there were three other women who wanted to come forward with very similar allegations against him. (For whatever reason, everyone seems to have forgiven “Uncle Joe Biden” for his instrumental role in making sure those women’s testimonies did not come to light…

Raise your hand if a man more powerful than you has groped you.

I do infection control, and while refugees do have a higher risk theoretically, you’d be surprised how many not-expected-to-be-at-risk (white Americans) have positive PPDs and latent (non-infectious) TB and would never know except it was discovered through a work-up for something else (usually lung cancer).

You should really be ungrayed. your comments (including this one) are consistently good and thoughtful.

It’s so sad the way we vilify those with infectious diseases. I recently had active tuberculosis and had to have an entire contact investigation done (including everyone I’d spent three hours w/ in the past year—at work, bars I went to, etc.). That sucked. And it sucked worse when I realized I’d infected people…

I did the same thing, in nursery school, but with pee! i peed in my little undies and even when my mom showed up with a clean pair, I was all, fancy seeing you here! What brings you round these parts? I would not admit to peeing to anyone.

Well, the whole point would be that you DIDN’T know you had a brother, but it explains what appears to be irrational hatred for a child she gave up for adoption years before she married your father.
