As a Michigander who's very proud of our beautiful, terrifying lakes, this is so interesting! Thanks for doing it.

The measure in Colorado passed, so at least kids will get to eat even though Focus thinks they shouldn't!

I'd like to stop being surprised by Christians being cruel, but here we are, with Christian organization Focus on the Family denouncing a proposition to impose higher taxes on higher income earners in order to...checks notes...feed children in schools. Focus does NOT want kids fed in schools.

We don't talk enough about how neat it is to see your siblings and friends being good parents.

Exactly!

Thank you for sharing this. I've felt at such a loss for words.

My sister works at a high school where students can no longer have their phones with them, so I texted her the #Tayvis news and she got to tell the teens and I'm very proud to have played my part in the information highway.

I would like to personally thank Taylor and Travis for announcing their engagement on a day I was feeling very crabby because I am feeling much better after this news!!!!!

Lyric is wishing you all the best today!

You finally match with someone, have the beginnings of a normal conversation...and poof, next time you're in the app he's unmatched you. Not just stopped talking--unmatched.

I wish people who never had to face dating apps could understand a fraction of how difficult it is to repeatedly have tiny hope after tiny hope squashed.

I'm just looking for someone who looks at me the way I look at this pizza.

Not me whispering "I'm going to punt you into the sun" to websites that refuse to cooperate.

What's something you had to eat recently that made you happy? A small burst of goodness in the chaos?

WHAT

That seems to warrant a medium treat at the very minimum!

I grew up in a Hellmann's household, but I've heard enough about Dukes that I need to try it.

I would like to remind us, as humans (and often especially women), that you don't need to apologize when there's nothing to be sorry for. (It's also important to apologize swiftly and sincerely when you *do* have something to apologize for. Knowing the difference is key.)

I heartily concur and would love to know what your ideal tomato sandwich consists of!

Bitterness is not bravery. Cynicism is not activism.

I would like that so aggressively, then wish I could like it again!
