We so totally fucking did. Though by high school for me (early 90s) we had computers for final papers. But we still wrote a hell of a lot on paper.

I once got moved up to first class because I had the tightest connection and am visibly disabled. They even arranged to have one of those carts to pick me up at the gate and drive me to the next one.

Oh, I know. My mom and stepdad are both in their 70s. When I hit about 45 Mom told me that whatever aches and pains I had were going to be permanent. At 50, yep, they definitely are.

Therapy dogs are lovely. My parents’ greyhound is one. My stepdad takes her to lots of places!

I do have reddish highlights if I’m in the sun when undyed. But no problems with pain meds.

One time I honestly thought I had, but I missed connecting a cable somewhere. I told the nice IT person that I am an idiot but the problem is fixed and thank you.

My mom woke up halfway through a knee replacement (done under sedation and nerve block, not general) and wanted to stay awake to watch the rest. Her mom and I agreed they we would have too! They knocked her back out, of course.

And in my experience, medical folks have some of the darkest senses of humor anywhere. I understand why, but yikes!

I was kinda iffy about Obama getting it, I admit, as it was the “you’re not W” from my viewpoint. But the orange traitor? Bwahahahahaha

I am totally deeply female and close to 100% straight. I see no reason not to accept anybody else’s identification. Just let me know what you prefer and I’m down with it. I’m not a saint, I’m just trying to be a decent human.

I saw you sing live in 2007 and was a second generation fan. It was a terrific concert. (Please whoever posts her social media stuff, pass that along!)

Much better to have it and not need it than the other way around. Good dog!

Part of me doesn’t want South Africa to have to deal with him, but the rest is like send his ass back there YESTERDAY.

I genuinely want to go back in time to make sure the 24 hour news never happened.

Such good dogs, doing a job no dogs should ever have to do.

I mean seriously I never had kids and never wanted to and if I had food and a hungry kid was there they’d get fed first. I genuinely can’t understand not making sure children have fucking FOOD.

They’re children! Feed them!

One of the two things I agree with Melania about: hating the orange traitor and having the hots for Trudeau. But Barron also looks a lot like the traitor, so….

I took a Russian history class decades ago and it was striking how at every turn things could have gotten better for them but no, it all just got worse. I have sympathy for the Russian people and absolutely despise their government,

I was 16 the last time I went, but then I am very short and looked younger thanks to my dad’s genes. (I look so much like him and his mother it’s crazy, and they both always looked young.)

Not with that cabinet. They were picked so that they wouldn’t 25th him. Duh.

I’d have stayed for the library alone.

I really hate when clickbait is actually good advice.
