Let’s plan a 5K to raise awareness about the lack of awareness of how shitty “race for the cure” is

This gem deserves all the stars.

I didn’t know that was a thing on Pornhub, but I 100% understand it.

You’re saying that lots of lesbians are only lesbians because they couldn’t attract men?  That seems... not based in fact.  

I love my husband... but he’s an annoyingly good person. Sometimes getting married is worth it!  You just have to not settle on the important stuff. Like basic decency. 

I put off buying a bike because the choices are so overwhelming and you can really go down the rabbit hole! I ended up just going to a couple of local bike shops, letting them size me and talk about what I wanted, test riding a bunch of bikes, and in the end it was way better then trying to use the internet. And I say…

You are dead on about Franzen.

I was out for a pleasant walk without my phone while people were trying to violently overthrow our government last month. We’re not all glued to the news *all* the time, and I hardly that’s the worst thing about the state of the human race in 2021.

There’s also a big difference between restaurants where the owners are being proactive about protecting their workers and the places where they’ll let customers wander around without masks if they want to. We’re plugged into the local restaurant scene, but even if we weren’t it would be fairly easy to get a sense of…

God I’m so confused, I choose not to buy literally millions of products every day. Have we moved to post-neo-sixth wave- capitalism where we’re obligated to purchase all the things all the time?

The trouble is that 99% of real estate agents give the rest a bad name.

Donating your stimulus check did SO MUCH GOOD. I know it feels discouraging that the lines are long, but also remember that the lines are long because there’s food there to distribute. I volunteer with several groups working on food insecurity and the need is so high, but we’ve got more donors than ever before (and…

My parents got some kind of weird new can opener and I could not figure it out over Thanksgiving. My parents kept saying “it’s easy, it just clips on” but that was a lie, since they couldn’t figure it out either. We ended up finding a video online.

She wasn’t saying money isn’t an issue for the world at large, she was saying that money isn’t an issue in her position.

We joke in my house that volunteering is my second career, but it’s kind of true. My job is rewarding and pays well, but requires <40 hours/week (now that we’re not in the office anymore, it’s WAY less). That’s opened me up for all kinds of volunteering work that I really enjoy- stuff that I think is important, AND I…

That doesn’t satisfy the [predominately male] survivalist fantasy.   

I spend a lot of time helping people get ready for a major west coast Cascadia earthquake (I hesitate to use “prep” since it has such weird connotations). I’m locally known for this, and I regularly get emails/messages from weirdos berating me for not telling people they should have booze and cigarettes in their…

I’m kind of confused about this, because the implication is that her husband isn’t work at home (“when her husband comes back from work”) so why aren’t they just in the house?

I’m terrible at decorating- after 8 years we’ve relandscaped the entire outdoor area and it looks amazing, while the inside is the same white walls and grey carpet as when we moved in, with the art stacked up leaning against the walls. But seriously, putting some hooks up by the front door (just the kind you stick on)…

I find it a fine [as in mediocre] book and pretty funny if you understand the context of the time (and who it’s making fun of); it could have been a very good book but it suffers so exhaustively from the lack of a good editor. I’ve read it twice (long story) so I feel confident it stating that it’s an interesting…
