Can I be an asshole for a second? I hate partner. When I hear "partner" I think "Yay, another queer person!" Now it's been co-opted by straight people and I get my hopes dashed.

I worry about drunk gun owners, but I worry more about the asshole who grabs an openly carried gun from its owner. Open carry just seems like a stupid idea all around.

Eh, I'll still feed my dog Blue Buffalo grain free food. His problem is wheat and corn (awful itchy skin and continuous yeast infections in his ears). Blue Buffalo is the only thing that's worked for him. If it turns out that BB was lying, that's fucked up and not okay. But this coming from Purina is rich.
