You know the joke about Shiraz, right?
Yes that is what I meant.
Well duh, calling people from other countries “aliens” makes it so much easier to pretend they aren’t human.
Oh hey! Hi there fellow immigration law person.
OK Miss AllieCat SmartyPants. How do you know I’m not watching YOU?
.... Of course the GOP is fighting this.

I don’t knowwwwww
Ily so much.
I lived for a brief period in Glendale (aka Armenian central) and it sounded like a horrible, intense shitshow for everyone, especially minorities. My neighbor talked about how he was permitted to produce alcohol and that an acquaintance of his who was in law enforcement (who was Muslim and not permitted) basically…
Hi Iran. It’s me again. I think it’s time you had another revolution, but like in the opposite direction. Ya’ll used to be cool. I know the CIA and MI6 worked really hard to fuck all that up - but you should try again. I know ya’ll know the Islamic Republic is horseshit and the Ayatollah is a corrupt joke. So get on…
Hmmm. Curious that your father just HAPPENED to leave Iran probably before Kim Kardashian was a thing. Interesting timing. I now am 99 percent convinced that you were raised as a sleeper agent to kill Kim Kardashian our country’s GREATEST asset against global terrorism. SHE’S ALL WE HAVE. Scratch that. Make that 100…
So that comic Rashida Jones wrote, about a socialite/secret agent, was actually a Kim Kardashian biography?
Isn’t Kim’s paternal side from Armenia? I know there are a fair amount of ethnic Armenians who live/lived in Iran but I’ve never heard of that in regards to her.
I am SO SO HAPPY that my father decided to leave that country and bring my family to the US. We were already a minority in Iran, and the stirrings of the Revolution hastened his decision to leave. Brb, I gotta call my dad and thank him.
KimPossible. I FUCKING KNEW IT.
I’ve found that as well. Plus I started to get irritated with the whole over the top modesty thing for little girls— it’s just a two piece suit, it’s not “slutty.” My daughter was more comfortable in them, and I wasn’t about to insist on a one piece out of some misplaced belief that her midsection must be covered…
I CAN ANSWER THE BABY QUESTION. I wondered the same thing until I had kids. It’s because trying to rinse the sand off of or change the diaper of a little girl wearing a one piece bathing suit is the kind of experience that should be reserved for those milling around the seventh circle of hell.
