I am: 1) Team "Turkey is delicious" 2) Team "Why the fuck are you putting marshmellows in sweet potatoes?" There is some mild drama going on with my mother and her anxiety affecting her judgment about where Thanksgiving should be held/what should be done for Thanksgiving. Therefore, I have not comme...

I got on a bus leaving Port Authority at 3:45 yesterday afternoon. 7 hours later I got off the bus. It was one of the worst experiences ever. Our bus driver was completely heroic in his driving. We got stuck like 4 or 5 times. There were so many accidents and cars stuck or spun out along the Turnpik...

Normally I would vote Libertarian in usually decided Senate race, especially since Murray Sabin is running and he was for legalizing weed way before it was cool, has been hopelessly running for office for many years, and 19,000 years old. But I really don't want Bob Menendez to lose his seat to Bob ...

Last week it was 30 degrees, now it's 70 degrees and humid. All the more reason to stay indoors forever.

I got a blowout today for the first time ever and it’s pretty amazing. My hair is totally straight and flat and sleek like I could never do myself. It was for a work thing and I totally feel like I dressed up like one of the sales/accounts girls for the day. I'm intrigued. So it's better than flat ...

Apropos of nothing, the other day when I used a mirror to look at the back of my head (to ensure that my ponytail-barrette wasn't crooked), I realized the end of said ponytail was looking really shaggy: instead of being a more-or-less straight line, it made me think of stalactites hanging from a ca...

There’s a lot of giving unwarranted grace to political actors. It’s not kinda almost a good idea if we can figure it out it’s a bad idea in its bones. Business existence at the whim of regulators is bad bad bad. Write a law call it a crime to violate it prosecute individuals. Improve sanction regim...

Harissa is the fucking market of condiments.

This is the truest thing ever said on Grylliade.

I cut my hair. It had to be done, because it was full of split ends, but I went too short (for me. it's still pretty long) so there's not enough weight too it, and it requires work! Also I'm old now, and need glasses. I picked out pairs of frames, because I actually have vision insurance. 10 years a...

Disagree. Cultures with permissive food service norms have the best street food. Q.E.D.

Agree 100%

I'm spending the evening chugging Franzia box white wine, eating a huge bag of Cheeto Puffs, and watching Kong: Skull Island. I'm eating Tate's double chocolate chip cookies (the ONLY double chocolate chip cookies I will eat, because they are thin, and crispy, and kind of not-cookie like), some pop...

I hate the cold shoulder trend. It's been around for awhile now and it's just so wrong. Especially when combined with bell sleeves.

I hate water. I've become better about drinking it at work since they got a literal water cooler, and cold water is easier to force myself to drink, but I mostly hate it.

I do, however, have an addiction to plain seltzer. I drink it by the case.

Before leaving, the cow said to her calf, 'Bye, son'.

You tell the worst dad jokes of anyone I know

I'm obsessed with https://www.amazon.com/Leuchtturm1917-Classic-Hardcover-Squared-Notebook/dp/B00FWRVUJ6/ref=pd_cart_rp_1_3?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B003G6OML8&pd_rd_r=A7S19JZ1WG34MF8XNZH4&pd_rd_w=8TDnX&pd_rd_wg=2ySsw&refRID=A7S19JZ1WG34MF8XNZH4&th=1 notebooks. I'll probably wind up with one in every ...

It's basically how we got W. If the Clinton administration was as relatively squeaky clean as Obama, Gore would have won in an HW level landslide. LOL We got W for the same reason we got Trump, Gore was singularly awful. He lost his own state furchristsakes. Clinton's foibles had nothing to do with...

I think you're right about a tech lift. I think a protocol designed for analog, human speed use is probably reaching natural limits now that we can robo dial for practically nothing. But I wonder, if there's actually nothing that can be done, why aren't businesses being spammed as hard? Their numbe...

The useless NYC mayor called all public school closed for tomorrow around 7:30 PM. This means my office is closed. "Those who can work from home, should work from home." However, because of my job classification, I'm not allowed to work from home. I feel like a little kid for how excited I am to not...

(In NYC)

It's really not *that* cold out- woke up to 12 degrees, warmed up to 17 by 1pm (start of the Polar Bear Swim) If you put on a coat and hat, you're fine. The news just wants to be dramatic about something. Quit your bitching.

We have a little bit of snow on the ground here in Jersey by my parents house (according to my father, after days and days of speculation on the news of ohmygod ohmygod is it going to by a WHITECHRISTMAS?!?!?!?!?! WILL JESUS BRING US A WHITE CHRISTMAS?!?!?!) Jesus has apparently complied. Thank the ...

I have never been more strongly in favor of repealing net neutrality Please, down with YouTube, up with killing ourselves This is my platform I have also never been more strongly in favor of repealing net neutrality. Today I learned "We just repealed net neutrality. This is how democracy dies." I H...

I'll eat sweet potatoes once a year, because my friend makes them in a non-abomination manner. I don't know what the recipe is but there are certainly no marshmellows.

I am making a butterscotch-chocolate-cream pie and stuffed mushrooms.

It would be all worth it if this meant the end of Pixar.

I'll tell you what I don't understand slash hate is the drop shoulder trend.

Is that the same as the cold shoulder trend that's been around the last year or so?
