When we lived in South Africa we got a lot of incredible shots - my step-father has a whole album as well form when he was on safari, and a lot of them are of lions :)

But she has no problem calling out shit on that level either. When somebody asked her about what her husband would have done on such and such an issue she fired right back that SHE WAS NOT HER HUSBAND. They were dealing with Hillary, not Bill. He wasn’t in some back room pulling her strings.

I’m Hillary for this reason, plus she’s eminently overqualified and would get things done. I’ve got no argument with Bernie’s platform but his reluctance to actually say how he’s going to redo banking is driving me nuts. You can’t see the presidency as some kind of quest where it’s just you, your sword, your trusty…

As someone who originally registered Republican when I was 18 (thanks, über-conservative Christian Repub parents) and then switched to Independent and then finally to Democrat, I voted for Hillary. Bill Clinton’s first term election was my first election to vote in, and I voted for him then and again for his second…

No, no, don’t pull their nails out. You’ve got to cut their fingers off at the first knuckle for a real equivalent!

Yup, pretty much. I’ve been a Hillary supporter since I was 12 and got to meet her when she was running for Senator. But I was OK with Bernie until he said that women’s rights were “a distraction” and didn’t come out hard against the misogyny in his campaign. Now I’m pretty pissed with him. I’d vote for him in the…

I started taking an SSRI a couple months ago after years of thinking that sort of thing wasn’t for me.

Don’t let berniebro temper tantrums convince you to vote against Hillary to appease them! That’s just letting man-baby misogynists get their way because they can’t stand the idea of a woman president. I’ve seen this argument, and I’m not convinced that 1) they won’t see reason when it comes down to Hillary vs. Trump…

I’m not attacking you, but I’ve seen this argument a lot, and I just do not get how it makes sense. Basically, we should vote for Bernie, because the BernieBros will throw a tantrum if they don’t get their way? I don’t get it, and I don’t want to indulge someone’s temper tantrum, when I think the same BernieBros will…

UPDATE: I’m having a drink in my hotel bar/living room and this guy starts chatting me up and I tell him what I did today. He literally looks me straight in the eye and says “You’ll never be a police officer. You’re a woman.....And you’re white.”

When you have been thinking of that piece of cake in the frig all day and find out that it’s gone; you ate it the night before in a daze on Ambien.

We are thinking of just listing the job as temporary.

I’m one of those introverts who has some extroverted tendencies. I just get recharged by being alone. I’m pretty antisocial most of the time, I promise. ;)

Total deal-breaker for me as well.

It’d be a deal-breaker for me.

No advice but can commiserate. I fired someone years ago that I was really dying to fire because she was terrible, and I was deeply startled when she reacted with instant, utter fury, and actually argued with me about it. Like, no, you fucked up way too many times, and anyway this IS a decision I get to make…

When cats cross tails, that is the highest most sweet compliment they can give each other. They are besties, I hope they get a lot of playdates in the future for some snuggles.

This past week Oliver stayed with my parents while I was in Albuquerque for work. My younger sister’s cat Jimmy was also there because her apartment was being shown and she hasn’t told her landlord that she has a cat. They love the warm weather and each other <3

ugh it is clearly somehow a conspiracy to keep me from you all

lol @ your mom, but I kinda understand where she’s coming from.
