I have an unopened package in my bathroom that I have been waiting for just such an occasion to use (I mean, I wasn’t anticipating global pandemic - I just needed some downtime to do it... aaaand here we are!!). Guess that’s on the agenda for tonight - thanks for the reminder!

An excellent recommendation! This is a fabulous movie :)

Let’s be clear about who the spoiler is: Sarah Palin. It’s Sarah Palin.

Jesus.

I love how Jon Lovett prefaces every mention of this guy as “*Human Frat Paddle*, Matt Gaetz”. Sums it up very well.

Lolll. On the most recent episode, John Oliver shared a clip of Christian Broadcasting Network nutjob Jim Bakker hocking the stuff on his show. It never ceases to amaze me how completely insane the people on that network are... and how crazy the people are who are watching that garbage and keeping the grifters afloat.

Omg. I have also spent a strange amount of time wondering about the professional lives of parents on PBS cartoon shows. Also, wondering if Mummy Pig or Daniel Tiger’s mother ever curse under their breath when they think no one can hear them. Like what would these women actually be like if their kid had vomited in the…

Welp, I just consulted almighty wikipedia and I’m WAY off on my estimates- South Bend is 100k (to be fair, I haven’t lived there in 20 years).

WTF? Well, the city is about 50k, but the community of So Bend, Mishawaka, Elkhart and Niles is about 100k. I was born there, grew up in a suburb and now live closer to Indianapolis.

As a man who didn’t come out as gay until he was 33, years after being elected into public office as the mayor of South Bend, Indiana...

maybe Pete and Chasten really are just like that, and that should be okay.

He is 1000% angling for the 2024 nom. That’s why he’s fading into the wallpaper as a part of this administration - hoping that the stench of the Trump presidency doesn’t hang on him too much after the fact.

They must have the same surgeon. I mean, of course they have the same surgeon.

Pro tip from my twenties self: if you time travel and find yourself barhopping in the early 2000's, you can get that ashtray smell out of your hair with a hair dryer on the cool setting. Feel free to use that tidbit of knowledge... nowhere, since smoking indoors in public now is unheard of.

Yes, this. I think that that is the other side - the after that we don’t hear much about. Like it or not, we are culturally conditioned for monogamy and stretching at the boundaries of a relationship that started out as monogamous too often breaks it. My soon to be ex and I opened up our relationship (for reasons…

I don’t think he’s ever touched real ones.

Yes! I’d never been a huge fan of her music, but I’ve always really liked her and her Dolly-reminscent humility.

Will it be *thicc* and will oxycontin spill out when you bust it open?

Nah, trusty ol’ Wikipedia says he died at 40 - brain cancer. Apparently he had a change of heart after he began battling his illness. Who knew?

sometimes people do get the fates they deserve and he deserves this fate.
