Her righteous indignation is so funny. If I had a nickel for every instance of MAGA talking heads declaring liberal women “look like dogs/need to put down the burger/somethingsomethingbluehair” in a single day, I could afford…well, maybe half the procedures she’s undergone. Looking cheap is pricey.

The only thing more embarrassing than developing a new hyperfixation on a four-year-old album is learning that it was also critically panned on its release

Look, I’m not saying that watching And Just Like That in the weeks leading up to his death is what ultimately sent my otherwise-healthy cat into heart failure, but—you know what actually yeah. Yessir. That’s definitely what did it

Need a name for the specifically misogynist moral injury of the open secret: the humiliation and assault on women's dignity that results when everyone knows that a man commits sexual violence, but social consensus or propriety (or the threat of defamation suits) prevent you from saying so.

I recently shut down my small home decor business due to issues the “pro-business party” created for my fabric supplier due to their bullshit policies and tariff antics.

An especially happy Caturday to Jade Desdemona, who came into our lives 11 years ago! When I saw her big green eyes staring up at me from a corner kennel at the shelter, I knew I had to bring her home. Happy gotcha day to my smoky girl, then and now

RA is so funny (esp as someone “too young” to be sick) bc you’ll mention your increasing pain for ~10 visits and doctors will be all “Ok sounds great let’s not change anything lol” and then you’ll be like “hey look at this cool new angle at which my fingers bend” and they’re suddenly like “oH SHIT”

Watching the 1990 classic Pretty Woman, and during the shopping sequence set to the titular song, my spouse innocently asks, “Is this Elvis?”

Reader, this man works at the now-renovated-into-an-office-building former recording studio of one Roy Orbison in downtown Nashville.

Just wanna publicly apologize to my neighbor for frightening him by violently attacking the brush behind my fence with a machete earlier, then stabbing crabgrass with a hori hori while swearing, & now staring blankly at my tomatoes, blasting The Doors’ L.A. Woman album & throwing back hard seltzers.

I love when they bring the “Southern culture” argument into it. My thicker-than-molasses drawl remains firmly intact, and I’ve been savoring buttermilk biscuits and melting in the summer heat just fine without the damn confederacy, thankyallverymuch.

“Everything’s running through Gov. Lee, who called it the ‘coolest’ project he’s introduced in his two terms.”

Ah, so Lee is approaching this project in the way an 8-year-old child enthusiastically rips open a new Lego set, scattering the pieces hither and yon. “Cool,” indeed.

I have never been in a hostage situation, but I frequently find myself the de facto adviser/non-consenting counsel to indecisive humans who will never in one million years act upon my (often heavily-researched) advice, yet they continue to barrage me with pleas for input. Do I just start billing or

ACLU-TN suing to challenge blocked Bartlett mosque permit The ACLU calls the Board's actions "a clear case of interference with religious freedoms".

Mosques, just like churches and synagogues, have a revered place in our communities, and we'll fight for everyone to have the freedom to congregate and practice their beliefs.

Slight CW for pet death/my morbid ass trying to find humor in an awful situation:

Turns out the emergency vet took down my husband’s email incorrectly for the pet crematorium to send a receipt notification/options to customize our cat’s urn. Sorry for the inbox scare, guywithextraconsonant @ gmail.

Thank you so much, and it is so unfair that we don’t get to spend more time with these little rays of sunshine. I will surely miss those beautiful blue eyes more than I can say.
