Our daughter knows that, in our family, ‘stupid’ is basically a swear word and ‘shut up’ is so breathtakingly rude that it’s basically unutterable.

I genuinely don't understand how anyone can look at the current moment and think "Abolish ICE" was anything but completely correct. ICE cannot and should not exist. Period.

I LOVE REGULATION. I LOVE THE PEACE OF MIND KNOWING THAT A RESTAURANT IS SAFE TO EAT AND A PRODUCT WONT KILL ME. I WANT MORE REGULATION. I DONT WANT CORPORATIONS TO BREATHE WITHOUT GOVERNMENT PERMISSION.

Our branch aggregate AGMs kick off today; wish me luck! And I have no explanation for why the M didn’t print with the proper colour, but I was DELIGHTED when I saw one on a desk where a member had finished filling the letter in. 😆

I had a 10 hour working day with no lunch break. I’d love to get in bed and just read a book, you know? But instead I have to read the news, and teach my kid spelling words, and make dinner, and schedule dentist appointments.
