Can you imagine basing your entire personality and worldview on hating a large swath of the country? Maybe we need a scientific study to see how small they have shrunk parts of their brain through hate. Devolution for all to see.

I expected this of the meme generation (sorry guys) as it aged into eligibility for federal and political fields. Who knew the Boomer generation’s last gasp would be lead by immoral, classless, tasteless, and completely debased discourse in what should be a serious conversation?

People who make logical arguments (e.g. make childcare and education affordable, stagnant wages, etc.) when faced with articles and news such as this are completely missing the point. This is not an attempt to solve real problems. It is the misogynistic and christo-fascist need to dominate women.

Who wants to tell the poster that they voted in an adjudicated rapist that is living on the government dime for his senility care and golf trips?

Do you ever wonder if this type of undeserved self-confidence is partially a result of the “Boy Mom” aesthetic? They give off mollycoddled and always-been-told-I-am-special vibes.

Post from 2020…we went from childish bullying to lethality in five short years because holding them to account wasn’t deemed prudent to the social framework. The “right” is an infection that is now spreading and multiplying with no cure in sight.

I wish I could tell if they are stupid or if they think the electorate is stupid. Personally, I think MAGAts are cruel and stupid to the core and most of the electorate is too lazy to verify. It could also just be “stupid is as stupid does”, though.

“Biology isn’t bigotry.”?! What does that even mean? Someone needs to get a government grant to build Nancy Mace Outhouses so she doesn’t have to mingle with people whose gender don’t fit into the tidy “biology” boxes she seems to think exist only in the binary.

Something that makes me happy is shoe selfies. Green tights, blue Mary Jane’s, and an abundance of animal hair.

#caturday This is my big orange boy, Pumpkin Pie. He loves to antagonize his kitty sisters. We tried calming collars, hemp drops, pheromone sprays to no avail. I put a shirt on him a few days ago and he has been super chill since. Cool cool. Guess he just felt uncomfortable naked?

The kids purchased gifts for each other exclusively at antique malls this year. The youngest eyes the uranium glass every time we go so the eldest made sure to grab him one. He proudly is displaying it in my MCM credenza.

I had the pleasure of accompanying my son on an EF tour to Germany, France, and Spain in June. I have lived on the memory of this salad I ate in Heidelberg. I want to recreate it but the menu sadly does not give a description. It was full of pickled veggies. Hands down the best salad I’ve eaten.

Cookies and eggnog cakelets ready to celebrate Christmas. Our house is a mixture of atheist, agnostic, and lapsed Catholic but Christmas is family, fun, food, and gift giving to all of us. Gifts are a fun mix of found items at antique malls and new things.
