Congratulations! Solid decision and I support you in it. Here, have this gif of a kitten in a box:

This quote from Parks & Rec about Bobby Newport and his debate with Leslie is scarily spot on for tonight: “Oh, he’ll be fine. Expectations are crazy low. If he puts two sentences together without crying, the press is going to say he’s doing surprisingly well, and if he falls to pieces, he’s going to look sympathetic.…

Same! I honestly find her very likable, and always have.

Schrödinger’s party. Obama as you point out. Birthers, but not racists. Against “big” government, but for legislating sexuality and increasing surveillance. Constitutional “originalists” who want to limit free speech and piss on due process. For freedom of religion and making the US a “Christian” country. “Pro-life”…

That isn’t the way the electoral college works.

Thank you! I appreciate the edit and honesty.

coastal elitism was unintentional and the post has been updated to reflect the fact that it was accidental!

Motto of men at my work that are sure there is no discrimination.

Don’t you know there are only six cities in America? Seattle, Portland, LA, San Francisco, Austin and New York. Sometimes Denver and Miami, if you’re on vacation. The rest of the country is the setting from Deliverance.

Yeah, that was a record-scratch moment for me. Preeeeety sure that racist assholes aren’t just a flyover state problem.

We’re watching the slowest train wreck in history take place. So many warnings. So many. And I’m thinking that we’re still going to crash.

“nice reminder for those of us that live on the coasts that every single person should get to the fucking polls and vote.”

I have only one request for a car “for ladies”-- a place to put my fucking purse that’s not the passengers seat! How hard is that?

A lot of brilliant people have been highly fucked up. Intelligence is no sign of being a decent human being.

Oh, thank you! So the huge tear that went from my vagina to my asshole didn’t REALLY take a ton of stitches and weeks and weeks of 3x/day Sitz baths to heal! Nor was all that lochia really pouring out of my vagina for 2 months! And my uterus took zero time to shrink back down from medicine-ball size to pear size.…

So does that mean single moms are not covered either? Or is this an “unmarried whore need not apply” situation

I never thought that Cosmo would be more willing to ask substantive questions than the New York Times, and yet here we are.

We don’t need maternity leave. The science is still out on whether replenishing the human race is a good idea. Why commit ourselves to new laws before all the facts are in?

I just came to write how beautiful Lupita is.
