They’re definitely the same people who are mad that Cicile Richards takes money for being CEO of Planned Parenthood.
She could save a lost Girl Scout troupe from a bear attack, and the narrative would still be how:
If he directly answers at least 4 questions, people will praise his leadership qualities. If he manages to avoid calling Hillary a blood-dripping shrew, they’ll call him diplomatic. He’s judged on an ever lowering bar.
Driving down a country road in a limo, wearing a gown, with her cat.
Mostly just away from the rich people.
It’s extra wide too, a stroke of luck. 36 inches. I have the most elegant of all bubble baths. Fuck no am I giving that up.
OH MY GOD THE DOUBLE HEIGHT FOYER. I know people with houses like that. How much does it cost to heat? How do you dust (I feel like I’m the only person who dusts)? Does not a giant, artless wall feel hollow? What do you do when you want to paint? Do you like literally echoing as you enter your house? WHY WERE THESE…
I make celery root soup whenever I can scrounge up cheap roots, which this year’s farmer’s markets have not disappointed me.
The house has been a ton of work but it was worth it. I got it cheap because it was a hoarder house and no one wanted to take a risk. Most of the problems have been cosmetic issues I can take care of myself. One room need to be replastered because the roof leaked SEVENTEEN YEARS AGO and after insurance paid for a…
It’s my dad too. The best I’ve managed when my he gets going is to stop the conversation with, “ask a Native American.” I can’t do that with every weird, off-hand racist comment he makes but I’ve managed to improve things. Or at least stop these conversations from happening as frequently.
No, they’re gone, but it doesn’t matter. I bought a 100 year old house (mom: “they should just tear this down. Everything built before the 80s, this is garbage.”) and I’ve been working on it ever since. The bathroom was my next project and she’s not happy I’m keeping the claw foot tub. Those liners are staying up…
I stopped getting the passive aggressive grandchildren comments and now I get the intrusive “why we ever meet anyone you’re dating” comments that somehow manage to insinuate I am both unpopular and/or a lesbian. As opposed to the reality: that my mixed-race boyfriend and I have had a conversation and agree we’re not…
My parents are visiting right now and it’s driving me bonkers. My mom hates my bathroom and bought me new fabric shower liners to replace the perfectly fine rubberized plastic ones I have (fabric is apparently better). I wouldn’t normally give a shit but this came with a lecture on how awful my bathroom is and the…
You could have ridden tall in the saddle! Now you’ll never ride the Rio Grande.
I’ll have you know, historically everyone actually was categorized as either good, bad, or ugly.
That’s incredibly depressing.
I knew a couple kids in elementary school who had BB guns like that and without exception, they used them as if they were real guns. They would threaten other kids, take it with them when they went out, none of them had any identifying features to say it was anything other than a regular handgun. I’m sure there are…
It’s not really fair to ask creators to live as zen monks. They’re still people, they may want to live in a tiny house with 10 articles of clothing and cat, or maybe they want a house with a picket fence and 1000 pairs of shoes.
That is fucking horrific.
