    I literally can’t. I’ve never voted Labour before, but I might now. Theresa May needs to be gone. I voted against Brexit because I KNEW it would result in a shitstorm. I can’t even bear to be alive in this world right now. The UK is a mess, the US is fucked, and I’m pretty sure China and North Korea are basically

    That is an excellent pun, although I was amused by the context of the Trumplestiltskin pun because in the ‘fairy tale’ of Rumplestiltskin, he basically extorts a woman (who is under threat of death) out of her material possessions, and when she has nothing left, he demands that she give him her child (so he’s

    That dance just looked uncomfortable. She looks stiff as a board.

    I’m pretty sure a bunch of Americans are looking into emigrating to North Korea. It seems like the North Korean leader is slightly less batshit insane than Trumplestiltskin (sorry, I’m using that name forever now).

    I lost it at ‘Trumplestiltskin’ - a more apt pun cannot be found. Ever. It’s not often that ‘LOL’ actually means a literal thing that happened, but I did, in fact, LOL.

    It also assumes that the cameras are on a network connected to the Air-BnB WiFi. A sensible home owner would have a separate, hidden network with the router basically screwed into the power socket to prevent the simple ‘unplug that motherfucker’ solution...

    Or basically any dog that takes an enthusiastic running leap into any river it sees..... I’ve known a few of those in my life... My Grandfather had a Newfoundland and she had to be physically restrained to PREVENT her leaping into churning, frothing water. She LOVED it.

    My elderly Tabby wails like I’m sawing her feet off every time I trim her claws. Because she’s elderly, if I didn’t trim them, they’d grow around until they dug into her paw! I feel terrible doing it, but it’s for her own good. You’d think after 15 years she’d have learned that the claw clipping wasn’t a terrible

    I know, right! That was a HUGE abuse of trust!

    This story made me so sad. I agree with other posters that, given her age, it is likely that her fraudulent paperwork was responsible for her becoming suspicious. But what sort of mind-fuck is it to find out that the woman who has loved you and been your ‘Mom’ for 18 years is a total stranger hiding a terrifying truth

    I would agree. European schools teach the history of the Holocaust so these names are much more familiar to us.

    What happened to Miss Sally and the Cozee Cone motel!!

    As a non-American (I’m a Brit), I’m only aware of these issues via global media coverage, so my perception of the timelines is skewed, but I do know you’re right, it has been going on waaaaaay longer than Frump. I think the Frump situation is more a symptom - this racist, bigoted behaviour has been gaining traction,

    Go you for supportive Parenting! I aspire to be this sort of supportive parent whose primary concern is the mental wellbeing of my child and in supporting them in making good, healthy choices that serve them well in their lives. And by ‘Healthy choices’, I mean that (for example) their decision on their gender or

    This is a government about to be headed by Trump.... what do you think?

    Millennial women can look forward to making less and less than their male counterparts or, if their of an older generation, they can look forward to watching millennials make less and less than their male counterparts.

    And Americans voted him as President... Good Job America!

    My ‘gateway eyeliner’ to the cat eye look was the Maybelline Gel liner kit with the brush. But the brush used to get caked up and go all hard and crusty. So I found the ‘Real Techniques’ Silicone Gel liner ‘brush’ - THIS IS FUCKING GENIUS! If you never buy another ‘cheap’ makeup brush again, buy this one. People moan

    Agreed. There are many ways to describe the vibrant and unique cuisine in the African-American or Caribbean cultures and ‘Black People Food’ is not one of them.

    Ah, yes, the tonal context. Fucking spoon ;-)
