It’s not like the Pan Am Games are the Olympics, I think my fellow Canadians need to relax on the national pride. Also, I’m kind of impressed they managed to get Kanye West to close the Pan Am games, what the hell kind of budget do they have?

Hi everyone,

Awwwww. One of my pups, Buster, is absolutely amazing at sensing when I’m upset. He’s not at all a lap dog and he hates being carried (he’s only 14 pounds, but he’s a BIG DOG, and he will thank you not to forget it), but he can always tell when I’m upset, and he always comes running to curl up on my lap. And sometimes…

Just want to shout out to all present. Happy Saturday! Hope your week was not as shitty as mine (but I know some of yours really were, but, hey, we made it!)

I just got into my dream school after they extended the deadlines for transfer students. I’ll be studying painting at one of the best art schools in the country this fall.

(I know, I know, I’m going to be a starving artist. It’ll be worth it.)

Jeez, everything about the Spurs is first-class. They continue to show that they’re the legit best sports organization in the world. I am mildly envious of their fans.

Good for this little girl! I work in education and there’s a lot of talk about how we have to make an effort to teach boys more effectively and it pisses me off. I believe that all children have unique learning styles (some are visual learners, others are manual learners, etc.) I don’t see why we have to segregate…

I am an up and coming comedienne. My main goal is not to make money. I’m in school for other things. If I get big enough to open for someone on a tour, to go on a tour myself, or get recognition, that is wonderful. But for me, right now, it is the most cathartic thing for me. It makes people laugh, it makes me feel…

I’ll add another voice for you: giving birth was not the worst thing ever for me. I went in thinking it would be awful, but it wasn’t, and there were even complications. Yet, not the worst thing ever. I did get an epidural after I hit active labor. That part was awesome. Well, after it kicked in. Not so much the…

Hey listen, keep in mind that what you see on social media/when you hang out with people is the best of the best of their lives. You don’t see the screaming kids driving them crazy or the shitty diapers or the passive aggressive fighting between the two people that got engaged. Things are never as shiny and happy as…

Happy Saturday! I am very happy to be part of the world this week when so many historical and culture-shifting moments have happened. I saw photographs that will become iconic images. I watched confederate flags come down. I cried with my sister when her partner of 12 years asked for her hand in marriage yesterday…

I posted a couple of weeks ago about the tattoo I was getting...now I want to show it off! This is just Phase 1, I have a few more sittings until it’s done, but I’m obsessed.

A hundred hugs.

I wish Jezebel had a subpage/site dedicated to mothers and soon to be mothers. Beauty and marriage both have one!

I have a child who is my doppelganger. I’ve always felt badly for him, a teen boy, being told he looks just like a middle-aged woman. He grew a beard, so I shave mine.

I think those people look nothing alike. Depp looks like baby Keira Knightley.

So I took a risk recently of starting a chapter of a meetup group for people who want to quad skate in skateparks. I played derby for a little over a year and had been off skates for nearly two years after that. Very scary to put myself out there (what if I look like a dork? what if no one shows up?), but glad I did…

Uh, no. If I wanted spaghetti, I’d eat spaghetti. If I wanted tacos, I’d eat tacos. What is this spaghetti-taco fuckery.
