Question for you ASMR enthusiasts out there: Is this how you feel all the time?

I thought she was good. She’s not a natural orator, and she doesn’t have an exceptional voice, but it’s not like you can do much about the latter and the former she’s greatly improved.

You are correct in doing so.

That’s hilarious, because my invulnerability to cigarettes spooked me so much that I’m convinced that I’d fall for cocaine like a ton of bricks and won’t touch the stuff. Like you only get a certain amount of immunity to vices and I blew all mine on cigarettes.

I buy a pack a year and have 5-6 over a week in either late spring / early fall, those times it’s crisp outside but still comfy without mittens.

You may be my mother. “Kiefer Sutherland!” “Danny Glover!” “Oh, that woman from the Office - no, not the lead, one of the second roles. Oh, Sunny, you know, just listen!”

Unfortunately the superpower does not extend to pints of Ben & Jerry’s. Every time I see someone take three spoonfuls and then put the lid on the container I both want to kill them and dig out the gene that made them that way so I can have it as my own.

I am one. About half a pack of cigarettes a year - two chainsmoking sessions and a couple of one-offs. Nicotine appears to have no power over me, I mostly smoke them because I enjoy sitting outside blowing smoke in early autumn or early spring while wrapped in a blanket.

Good. I would like a nice vacation or down payment rather than a ring, partly because I can’t fucking imagine having a jewel on my hand for the rest of my life. Functionally, I just don’t get it, it’s like screwing a small bolt into the top of my finger. Why would I do that? It will get dirty and catch on things and I…

My dad shares about 80% of Obama’s traits, from the quietly professorial thing down to the way he gently delivers constructive criticism and lets us know we’ve disappointed him but he still loves us (the other 20% is made up of blinding whiteness, being an actual foreigner, complete sports illiteracy and a total…

If they fire her, they’re going to be in a world of shit.

I didn’t want to write an essay, but there are just so many more VP candidates who not only possess more liberal ideals than Kaine, but also reflects the changing face of America (Rep Ellison, Al Franken, Elizabeth Warren, Raul Grijalva, come to mind).

I have this strong desire for Joshua Jackson to just be happy. Don’t care with whom, don’t care how, I just want him to be content.

I’ve seen some amazing city apartments with Murphy beds. One had a table built into the underside somehow, when the bed was up the table was pulled down. Another had a flatscreen on the underside, viewable from the couch when the bed was up. That’s the case for daily conversion.

I have a question!

I am happy for you but this pisses me off SO MUCH. I asked about it when I was 27 and three separate OBGYNs told me that they’d look into it and then came back saying there was nothing to support it and blah blah wittering into silence. I ended up with the impression that I could strike out on my own to find it, but…

Fuck, seriously? I asked a couple of OBGYNs and they all kind of waffled and said they would look into it and then mostly kind of bailed, and that was all when I was just slightly above the recommended threshold. God fucking dammit. Should’ve forced the issue. DAMMIT.

I want this to come back in some form. Like a super-high, embroidered, mesh turtleneck.

Call me when they bring back gisaeng hats.

It sounds like her coworkers may have been taking advantage of her manager’s preexisting prejudices and exploiting the worker.
