Foul-mouthed yellow-dog Democrat, knitter from Illinois. She/her. Probably not that interesting. A student of mine once wrote on an evaluation, "She thinks she's funny, but she's not." Please don't DM me.

no no no you misunderstood. I said “fuck YOUR feelings”. MY feelings are very important and must be handled gently, like a tiny baby hummingbird

As Deep Throat supposedly said about Watergate, "The truth is these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand." Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

I am so sick of assholes who argue that selecting from 30% of the population (white guys) or some subset of 60% (add enough but not too many white women) would somehow lead to more excellence than drawing on the best of the whole population. It's bargain-basement eugenics and I loathe it.

Y’all gotta stop putting the entire weight of forgiveness on our shoulders. They gotta want to change. Even if it’s selfish motivation, they have to accept that they done fucked up. Embracing these people without that will just bring us right back to where we are now. Fuck the status quo ante.

CJR gave me the opportunity to write the story I've so wanted to write about the wave of liberal anger with the NY Times, Washington Post, et ilk, over campaign coverage, quoting many journalists and exploring theories. www.cjr.org/analysis/lib...

Off to the word mines for the day but everyone needs cheering up on a Sunday like this. I've told this one before but anyway, gather around, children, for this is the story of how my paternal grandmother, the quietest woman to ever live, beat up the most famous magician in Asia during his act

When I think about it, Elon’s doing just as he always has. He buys something someone else built and claims it’s his. Tesla, Space X, the United States.

The 1973 The Three Musketeers + the 1974 The Four Musketeers are the absolute best film adaptation of Alexandre Dumas' novel. Absolute. Best.
