Be fair: cops routinely talk down heavily armed white spree-killers with no harm to the white murderer. Hell, they were already at a Waffle House, they could have talked him down and just bought him a meal right there.

...And that’s why they can look at the rest of us like we’re a bunch of petty, self-righteous zealots when we suggest that politics actually matter on a personal level.

An unarmed man who rightfully feared for his life managed to wrestle a gun away from an actual deadly threat. Yet all these shook-ass cops blast away black people because...

I really wish I knew what it would take to even begin to solve the issue of guns in this country. I also hope that the father is charged with the equivalent of illegal distribution of a firearm. His son was barred from having guns and the father gave them back to him. There needs to be some sort of punishment for that.

I made a pizza tonight! Fennel, potatoes, cherry peppers, kale. I put tofu ricotta on my slices (because vegan) and my husband put sausage on his (because not vegan). Everybody won!

God: I just did!

I’m so sorry. You don’t deserve that, and it isn’t cool that your parents don’t treat you with the love and affection you do deserve. It doesn’t seem so much a youngest child problem as a selfish, shitty parent problem. Also, if you would like for any of us to ooh and aah over your adorable kiddo, we will gladly do…

All this talk about how no one really cares about the third Royal baby got me thinking. As the youngest of multiple children, my parents didn’t really take an interest in a lot of my milestones either. (People tell me they missed out, but if you told my parents that, they would disagree because, hey, that’s what their…

Evening beautiful Jezzies...Craft Thread!

Haha! The main thing for me is how the tray looks like aluminum foil. It took me a few looks to realize it isn’t. It just looks way tacky and cheap.

I am thoroughly amused at the reports that Trump doesn’t think Cohen will flip on him, when what he really should worry about is whether he did something Cohen can offer to entice him to flip. It’s like he’s acknowledging his guilt.
But again, like the political hell I’ve been living in for well over year, I wonder…

Implicit in all those rage tweets is that there’s something to “flip” about. Yeesh.

That is such an unappealing poster. Like even if I was neutral on trump, I wouldn’t find that appealing at all.

It’s so weird to me that a person that treats everyone like shit can inspire such loyalty in some people.

How I wish it had gone:

When your co-workers are openly saying “I’m glad you’ve embroiled yourself in an ethics scandal to distract the public from my own ongoing ethics scandal.”, it’s entirely possible there’s an ethics problem with the organization as a whole.

I’m having my kitchen redone, and my contractor was referred to me by a very good friend of mine (who is also currently using him for a basement reno).

I’m still alive & still here.

Your cousins’ relationship with your grandmother is none of your business.

I hope she stays safe because that MAGA crowd is full of psychotics. We all know Trump isn’t thinking of stepping down, nor would his spineless Congress ask him to. The way microphone Becky shut April Ryan down with the “it’s a ridiculous question” had by blood boiling. So many over qualified Black women (like Ryan)…
