🎶You get a line, I’ll get a pole an’ we’ll go down to the…tuna?… hole, honey, baby mine…🎶

I tend to like good hair care brands and whatnot, but y'all, there is nothing that is in a hairspray that should make it more than $10. We're getting ripped off by prestige hair products.

Nothing is as strong as the urge to use the bathroom as soon as one puts on a jumpsuit. 😬

I need to live more biblically (writing off all my debts every 7 years)

After my giant multi-post rant today, I took my fat ass to a dance jam workout class and shook it like a Polaroid and anyone there who resented me for it can pick a spot and kiss the aforementioned posterior.

“So just lose weight”, someone will inevitably reply. Yes, great, I’m trying to do that. But in the meantime I have to put up with all the shame shit, which makes it 20x harder to not eat my feelings.

Fat shaming has never once encouraged me to be healthy. All fat shaming has ever done is discourage me from living my life.

I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal. I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.

This further proves what I’m constantly saying. People aren’t “fat-shamers” because they are concerned about fat ppl’s health, as they often claim. They don’t care if we to try to have healthy goals and habits. They just hate us for hate’s sake.

The average American has three friends.

I am on day 4 of the 'flu. It's way worse than i remember it being, but way better than if I hadn't gotten a flu shot earlier in the season. It was worth the five minutes it took.

Post a movie from the year you turned 18.

Now to be fair, Donald Trump is making certain things much more affordable in America, for instance all of its stocks.

IYKYK #Jeopardy

I was a little preoccupied and running crazy yesterday and I missed Trans Day of Visibility, but I want my trans friends to know I'm glad you're here, being exactly who you know that you are. (And that's every day!) You are all beautiful and remarkable miracles of God and I love you.

Tonight's the night. Also -- this is so weird.

Time to let you in on my Big Exciting Thing! Last month I was privileged to fulfill my dream of competing on #Jeopardy! I had the time of my life and I hope you will all tune in on Monday Mar 31 to watch! Find your local station at www.jeopardy.com/watch.

Can we get a new saint to drive all of the insane politicians out of America right now, Saint Patrick style?

Okaye, fyne, Ich guesse: brynge on that Bloode Worme Full Moone. Thinges were not weirde ynogh alreadye.

“Oh look, I have a block of Dubliner cheese in my handbag.” may be my most on brand statement ever.

Donald Trump is already more of an autocratic tyrant than George III ever dreamed of being. I said what I said.

So they don't want to see your liquids anymore? and as I'm unpacking them I'm lk mad because I did a great job decanting SO MUCH STUFF into cute little bottles and I'd like to have been able to show those skills off.

Thank you all for you prayers over the last several days. The Big Scary/Big Exciting Thing turned out to be the best/most fun thing I've ever done. Anxiety stole NOTHING from me. Full details to come later, but for now, just know I am so very grateful for your intercession!⚓️

Did you guys know that Kendrick is the first Pulitzer winner to perform at a Superbowl halftime show? Next year book Barbara Kingsolver, you cowards.

A week from now I will do a Big Scary Thing™️ and Big Exciting Thing™️ ,and I would greatly appreciate if my Narthex buddies (and any other prayerful folks!) could spare a few prayers for me and my anxiety over the next week or so. Thank y'all so much. ❤️ 🙏🏻 🕯️ ⚓️

Getting ready to fly after avoiding air travel for 27 years means you practice anxiety exposure going through TSA line a week in advance. "Hey can someone pretend to intimidate me while I take out my iPad and lotions and put them in this box on the counter?" #gad
