i think opponents of trump also have to resist the temptation of intellectualizing his outbursts or attributing them to some recognizable goal. the fact is that trump is obsessed with greenland because it is big on a map. he wants canada because it is also big on a map. that's it.

I guess try to live your life in a way that if you get murdered the comments under media about your murder don’t say, “it was probably the family member of someone whose claim was denied” and then all of the responses to those comments are, “TOTALLY!”

My grandparents were the sweetest people in the world. Until it came to cards. Literally the only time I have saw them have a cross word for each other. God help you if you didn’t bid correctly in Bridge.
I played spades for the first time in June 2005 at a family cookout in Memphis. My own grandmother cursed me out so bad during that game I haven’t played since!

I could not decide on anything that sounded good for lunch. I eventually landed on butter noodles. Like a five year old. But I added pepper. Like a slightly fancy five year old.

I mean, I’m a middle aged white lady who saw it and said, “wow, what a little bitch.” I don’t think this move is going to help the court of public opinion.

A new note from me to you:
“Last night, I put a hex on someone deeply invested in “both sides.”
Get active or get out of the fucking way. Weaponized incompetence is a tool of white supremacy. Quit acting brand new. As my mom used to say “Play time is OVER.”

I would love to tell you about the times vaccines prevented me from getting sick, but every time it happens, I don’t notice. I just keep feeling well.
Neither do you.

Governor Andy Beshear, in a Trump +30 state, gives advice to Democrats: Do not throw LGBTQ+ people under the bus, it will not work.
His advice to dems: Lead on your values.
This man ran on a fully inclusive campaign in 2023 and won. He received the same kind of ads Harris did.

I Don’t Know Why the Harris Campaign Thought Its Pitch for Women Would Work
I used to vote Republican. There’s no way “You can vote in secret” would have spoken to me.

Last night at a party a woman who had read the book got mad at me for spoiling the ending of Cold Mountain for my friend who I know WILL NEVER read that book.
“I just don’t like when anything is spoiled for anyone.”
The book came out in 1997. The movie came out in 2003. IT’S FINE.

When I had my gallbladder removed my doctor told me that caffeine may now upset my stomach. Me, a caffeine addict, said, “nahhh.”
Anyway. I had jury duty for 3 weeks and could only bring water into court. Turns out I’ve been giving myself an upset stomach with Coke Zero for the last 3 years.
