Random encounters with llamas in Charlottesville today!

Fellow Ford here, feeling your pain.

every jew in the world could be gone and the rich would still exploit the poor and you'd have to invent us as an explanation

Are they reinventing Cliff's Notes?

My husband takes the absolute worst photos of me, and then gets upset when I don't want my picture taken

Y'know, all I wanted was to retire and live my fucking life quietly and with a minimum of global fuss and not discover that I'd moved to a Nazi-dominated country without ever crossing a border.

Same. We have one fully electric, and one plug-in hybrid, so we should be able to go without gas for a very long time

Every day, the Washington Post does something that just reinforces my decision to cancel my subscription after 30 years of loyal readership.

My spice stash rivals my yarn stash. Almost all of those are available readily in US stores. Maybe not the French Curry Powder, but Za'atar? Seriously?

I've heard this bullshit before. Along with "we'll be welcomed as liberators."

I got an email from my representative, who I really like, BTW, saying that he was calling on his colleagues to come back and vote on the war powers resolution.

Like, do they really think that will stop Trump? He won't give a fuck.

Killing a bunch of elementary school girls to distract from having raped a bunch of middle- and high-school girls is pretty fucking grim.

Someday, before I die I hope, Americans will come to realize that not choosing the lesser evil means the greater evil wins

I'm enjoying Shuffalo! But three days a week of crosswords isn't enough, @newyorker.com

When we first started watching it, I commented that Ford seemed really happy in the part. I agree that it’s some of the best work he’s done.

He does give Biff Tannen from Back to the Future vibes

I am so sorry for your loss. He sounds like an extraordinary man and father.

Oh, horrors! He's doing his job! How very dare he.

Do it!

Hand-sewn jeans on not-so-young but proud woman

I made this pair of jeans! And they fit, too.

Not only should "concomitant" be accepted for today's #NYTSpellingBee, but it would be a pangram. Grrrr.

Yikes

Republicans - Refuse to wear masks to save lives, but gleefully put them on to end lives.

Stop trying to make Newsom happen.

All of the people in that ad should be rethinking their lives right now

The proper response is "Why are you parroting racist propaganda?"

You, sir, are not meeting the moment. ICE cannot be reformed. It is meant to be and is acting as an invasion force, an election interference mechanism, and an act of terrorism against American cities. No amount of "reform" is going to undo that.

I cancelled my @washingtonpost.com subscription a while ago, but since I paid by the year, I still have access until April. I admit I would still look at it. Now I won't even do that. Bye, bitch. Bezos took a great American institution and destroyed it, just like Trump is doing to the country.

And yet the Post keeps trying to convince me to resubscribe. This ain't the way to do that, Bezos.
