I took Canadian Fiction in college and Margaret Atwood was obviously one of the featured authors. By definition Canadian literature focuses on the human response to tragedy, coping with death, adapting to a dystopian future just as people adapted to nature. I genuinely pinpoint the start of my depression and anxiety…

Not for nothing, but nothing terrifies me more than seeing how young some of the members of the current conservative establishment are. My hope has always been that the sexist, the racist, the bigoted generation would eventually die away. To see twenty and thirty somethings holding up those values is scarier than any…

Rick Perry heard about McIntosh’s disqualification and likely yelled at an old mop he thinks is his secretary to hold all his calls.

He looks like Dan Stevens gone horribly awry.

I don’t know. If I knew that it wasn’t a malfunction of the ride and that it was something going on elsewhere (I don’t know if they announced that it was terrorism to the people in the pods), those little pods are pretty comfortable and roomy. Not too claustrophobic.

Or he’ll ignore it completely and make some comment about The Bachelor instead.

Growing up in the 80s I was a 10 year old nauseated insomniac for fear of nuclear war. I remember watching the “Land of Confusion” video by Genesis, where Ronald Reagan accidentally sets off a nuclear explosion, and the “It’s A Mistake” video by Men At Work featuring something similar and I couldn’t grasp how people…

“Coach, coach! It’s Tim’s birthday. We thought we’d get him a cake, and maybe we could sing....”

As I have a daughter nearing the time of puberty (sob sob) I’ve oven thought that thinx would be such a nice option for young girls who are getting the hang of managing their period, knowing when it stops and starts, the differential in flow. I can’t imagine a ten year old finagling tampons for five days without a…

You know the other day I had to tell my daughter that facetiming her grandmother while on the toilet with her ipad was completely unacceptable and that was just a lesson I never thought I’d have to teach. Life comes at us fast.

I hope we’re not suggesting some sort of ‘high road’ welcome her to our side of the argument bullshit because frankly, I’m all compassioned out since January. She can suffer this backlash and her dried up bank accounts on her own and if there were a way to kick her down further, I’d probably contribute to it. I’m…

I’ve never followed a Judicial hearing like I will this one (I admit to not getting really involved in politics until I was in my thirties) so I’m wondering if this stuff is ever brought up during the hearings...the opinions and letters and evidence of “average joes”. I mean, I would assume that it doesn’t since…

This is what I struggle with every day. When I go to read #trumpregrets on twitter and people are shocked...SHOCKED to discover that Trump is an asshole that doesn’t care about them I see so many liberal/democrat types saying “It’s good that you realized it, now help us fight”.

I guess you’ve never watched Caillou.

was this supposed to be a video? Or is it a joke i’m missing?

I was pretty young when that video came out and it scared the shit out of me. Whenever i heard that song start I had to switch it off the radio or turn off the t.v.

At this point my only hope and prayer for America is bleak as fuck but its that this old white asshole ‘Greatest Generation’ will be dead soon: this generation who thinks its so important for America to be FIRST, who is so afraid of other cultures, who thinks daycare for working moms is an “entitlement” who believe in…

I hope you’re not expecting anything remotely “Archie Canon”

And in a flash....that guy was gone...
