This may be too late to be seen but I’m back from my Outlander tour of Scotland!

I remember being a kid and thinking 72 was so, so old. Team. 72 is not old. At least, it’s not old anymore.

Does the story of John Heard death not deserve its own post?

My mom lives in a neighborhood that has a train track right across the street and has heard of people buying houses on the block and then complaining about the trains. (there are only 2 a day) You literally look out your front door and see the tracks, what did you think they were FFS? (my mom loves the trains btw.)

Our local gentrifying condo-dwellers are constantly being thwarted by the rich old bastards in the streetcar neighborhoods who fear all change. It’s kind of hilarious. Operation less-train-noise was shutdown by old ladies who enjoyed the charming whistles in the early morning hours (4am).

This reminds me of some parts of New York City, where transplants (most likely, from small towns where everything shuts down at 9PM) move to heavily-populated and well-established neighborhoods and try to force their “small town values” on their neighbors. My cousin recently told me about a situation where one “new…

An almost similar thing happened in my town. Developers built luxury “boutique” apartment that are made of wood not concrete, because the building is not that tall, and places it right up against the train tracks. And the residence, of course, are complaining about noises from the train and the vibrations it causes…

Who’s down for an ice cream truck depot heist?

I actually hate the ice cream truck in my town, because it drives down my street full speed, playing the damn song, without stopping. I don’t know where it does stop, but ain’t anywhere near my house. So I’m stuck with Pavlovian desire for ice cream, and I can’t buy it.

Ha!

Where I live, developers re-devloped an area next to the river and sold condos and overpriced apartments to rich idiots. Know what else it was next to, and the reason the place used to be where the SROs and really, really horrible, cheap apartments was? It was also right next to the train station. As in, less than a…

I don’t live in Austin, but seriously fuck these people. People who move into an established neighborhood and then complain about what’s already established are the worst of humanity.

True story, I dated a guy who lived down the street from the ice cream truck depot in the West Village. Around 5pm, every summer evening, they all roll out as an adorably coordinated sugar-fueled cheer army. The jingles were always delightful because even though they were loud, they just sound like happiness.

Part of me really hopes he tries this. Watching him crash and burn will be so entertaining.

Are we really surprised? Who DIDN’T know this would happen? That man and his co conspirators will never, ever serve a day. And there will be no impeachment proceedings unless the GOP stops circlejerking.

He’s ready to go to the mat to keep us from seeing his taxes. They must be the Ark of the Covenant of returns.

Oh, for God’s sakes, this again. OB/Gyns get sued more often than other types of doctors (except ER docs) because they are in a high-stakes specialty. They are compensated proportionately. And let’s not forget that most doctors DO NOT PAY FOR THEIR OWN MALPRACTICE INSURANCE. Their practices, hospitals, and…

Yep. He’ll try to do it. There is literally nothing that has happened up to this point that suggests he wouldn’t/won’t

Yeah, with all of the rhetoric equating OB/GYNS to “abortion doctors” to murderers to posting their addresses on the Internet, I cannot imagine the reason there would be a shortage. What could possibly be dissuasive?

Thank God Fox News kept telling us that we could get our gyno visits done at elementary schools and Walgreens so there’s no need for these people anymore!
