There’s always more to mine from the Tudor period! Also from any other period of time. I am here for all of it! Women did some amazing shit, even with the restrictions of being a woman. In no particular order, these are the ones I would like to see given the mini series or full season treatment:

I use dark cocoa powder with any fruit that goes well with chocolate. So far raspberries are my fave. Cocoa, bananas and peanut butter is also a great mix.

I’ve got a teen who struggles with food as related to self care. While I find it frustrating as a parent to witness self harm via food, I have a pretty good idea, as I experienced the same when I was their age. Chips are fine. Seriously. Chocolate milk (dairy or otherwise) can add some nutrition. As can certain brands…

Pretty sure people are experts on their own mental health- or at least faintly knowledgeable. Whatever brand of depression you may or may not have may not be what others experience. Perhaps it is you who doesn’t know what you are talking about when it comes to another person’s experience. Seems a bit of a troll-y post…

Right? They are protesting the lack of safety IN school and the administrators are saying it’s not safe outside of school.

Not really. We’re both wildly introverted believe it or not- though we do think we’re incredibly funny and charming. We have received positive feedback from the dogs in this matter and the cat is warming to the idea.

Oh shit. I am so sorry you had to be exposed to that. I appreciate your explaining the power imbalance and identified how it affected you personally. Thank you for sharing, even when it continues to cause you distress even 3 years after. The structure appears to be designed to further victimize people who wish to be a…

I mean, if there has to be villains, I’d like them predictable. I have shit to organize, and a volatile and erratic villain (or multiple ones) messes with my contingency plans. Do I plan for a land invasion? How about nuclear bombs? Biowarfare? The loss of electronic communication? Not to mention I have to take into…

He thinks he is too. The dad jokes are off the chart too. He’s living proof you can be cool as fuck when you are young and then lose it all by 50. He was a road racer, bike courier, artist, sculptor, maker, warehouse dwelling, jazz loving, pierced, bleached hair, jacked up sport bike riding tour de force. He rode a…

My husband is the token socialist and CBC listener (Canadian public radio) in his workshop. He deliberately drops words into conversation that don’t actually exist to see if it spreads. He’s been successful a number of times. “Supposably” was a big one. However, his masterpiece was “Complexitive”. It’s still going…

Naw. The Sasquatch delivers them via dog sled on nights the Northern Lights are at their most powerful.

I am sorry to affirm. I have woken up every morning wondering what disaster has happened overnight. A plane flies extra low, hearing trains shunting or normal industrial city sounds and I immediately wonder if something has happened. And I live in Canada, ffs. I have no idea how you folk in the US are managing.

Betcha he says “supposably” too.

This does not, however, fully explain Sarah Palin.

This one seems more volatile somehow. I remember the 80's- it felt monumentally scary, but there was a real predictability to it- the checks and balances were working and NATO was generally prepared and all members were onside.

Planning to bomb and abortion clinic is a pretty blatant misogynistic statement about women and their reproductive health in my books. But maybe I’m working off a different scale-I’m a Canadian.

Thank you for your service. And, I totally would. And I bet I could rustle some extra dollars up from other people too to make sure your therapy was at a place as fancy as wherever entertainers recover from “dehydration” at.

Why do people listen to Taylor Swift when there are women like FKA Twigs and Janelle Monae? I don’t understand. And Peaches.

I have a golden retriever about as vacuous. He sleeps with his eyes open and has been known to wander around the house while still mostly asleep- so it’s really hard to tell if he’s actually there, if you know what I mean.

“All by himself” means Putin wasn’t actually in the same room at the time- he was whispering on the other side of the bathroom door while Trump was tweeting on the throne.
