Yikes, Sophia. Just yikes.

I would like to commend smonster for having a decent conversation with a former coworker of mine who I didn't realize is a Bernie or Buster, apparently! I missed the whole thing, but might have flipped out way sooner.

Also, an all white production of "The Wiz" is weird, right?

Wasn't that the original--The Wizard of Oz? Why not just do that?

So Trump is actually calling on Russia to hack Hillary's emails.

Wait, the ones from when she was Secretary of State? The ones whose alleged insecurity meant that HRC was a traitor, so Trump's veterans affairs advisor suggested she be hung? Trump is advocating the treason that his minions are accusing HRC of?!?!?! I know logic isn't his strong suit, but day-um. Also, when did cozying up to Russian dictators become a Republican value?

In theory I get that, if you mostly talk about say, TV and stuff with a group of people, whatever differences on that spectrum shouldn't affect that much, In practice, I don't think it's true. But maybe that's because I am All About politics now.

Sophia, that still might not be as bad as the all white Once On This Island my former arts camp employer did. It was with middle schoolers and the excuse was to expose them to the music/material but still.

I think that is worse, aurelia. I am not sure.

Ugh. I have two employees in the same job. I'm not technically their manager but I manage the project. One is kind of grumpy and sour and I'm not super impressed by her. But she's been on the project the longest. The other is new to the company (but has plenty of experience with the job). The newer one had an issue at a site the old one had been to. I emailed the old one to check what she had been told prior to the rest of us joining the study, just to make sure we were on the same page. She wrote back and was like "my recommendation would be to do [super obvious thing], let me know if you need me to also go there next time" And then sent another email all "Also I would have [new person] do [very obvious elementary thing]". I barely stopped myself from responding "thanks, we both already know how to do the job" and instead said "I don't think that will be necessary, I just wanted to make sure we were on the same page" but damn bitch! Step off!

Timelies all!

Not that I'm planning to join Facebook , but if I were, it would not be until after the elections.

Good plan, Sheryl. I'm surprised my friend count doesn't go down daily! I seem to be on a mission to counter bullshit multiple times a day. Very unproductive really. I need to heed the wise words from my tag. But those people on the internet just won't stop being wrong.

So I got the transdermal cat drugs, and promptly pushed out four doses. I think I got most of it into a ziploc bag, but too much the first try isn't the worst, right? Also, Steph and/or others - do I really need to use a glove? (I guess the alternative is getting some of the meds myself.) At least putting it on her ear was easy enough.

Jesse does cat drugs, pass it on.

My house is so CLEAN and pretty!!! Yes, hiring a housekeeper was the right call. Now we get to figure how often I want them to come. Right now I have them scheduled monthly. Plus we get to play the game of, what got moved where with a few things.
