I picture him blubbering behind a carton of oat milk while suburban moms yell at him for spelling her name "Mariska" instead of "Marissa."

So I woke up with something that's literally Black Hairy Tongue. People, including my doctor, seem to think it's no big deal, and will go away soon, but it certainly is gross.

It's ridiculous how people take the lack of insane flag waving as lack of enthusiasm rather than an urge to not look like a bunch of authoritarian nutsos.

Years ago I was sobbing in Union Square for ludicrous reasons that felt world-ending at the time, and a young man in a sensible suit stopped and asked if I was ok. I mumble-nodded-shook my head, so he just stood there until I'd pulled myself together, then nodded and walked off.

But it’s not all hidden away though. That’s the problem. He is a racist misogynist who disrespects every contract he’s ever had, ruins lives for sport, has never had empathy and is now plagued with (at least) dementia. It’s all out there in the wide open. That’s why we’re fucked.

Was biking down the rail trail and this woman yelled at me (well, at everyone), “You’re ruining a beautiful day, take off your mask!!”
To which I replied, with all the eloquence I could muster, “FUCK YOU!”
Not my finest hour. But, you know, fuck her.

I was sobbing in Union Square by the Gandhi statue. A young man stopped and asked if I was OK. I sort of nod/shook at him. He stood beside me without saying a word until I was calmed. Then he walked away.

Remember that it is a reverse Breaking Bad narrative. A family goes from the absolute worst to loving and supportive.
Also, if it helps, Chris Elliott becomes a much, much more minor character.

Julie & Julia was published 16 YEARS AGO. The movie, with which I had nothing to do, came out 12 YEARS AGO. It’d be nice if every single story about Julia Child didn’t include a mention of how annoying I/Amy Adams are. The nation is falling apart!

Fucking horrific. Getting their last gasp in.
96% of the people arrested by the NYPD for marijuana in 2020 were BIPOC. How are you gonna say the police isn't a white supremacist organization? Weed is almost legal so this is their last chance to "get" us. They're not even hiding it anymore.
