Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, there's no way I can watch and be at all functional today.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

New thread smell!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Ugh, heartbreaking listening to Dr. Ford. She's very composed but obviously under tremendous stress.

And it bugs me that the fact that because she's a blonde, educated, well spoken woman from Chevy Chase she will be more credible. But she sounds very credible, and if Kavanaugh's argument is that "I believe it happened to her but she's mistaken me for somebody else" then I don't think that will fly at all.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't really understand why but that makes me feel better.

OK, Good Place podcast, get me through the day.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Steph, your parents are... that's some crazy stuff. I want my daughter to have a good sex life, but I don't want to be in in or near the loop on that.

Fortunately I had therapy this morning, and we hashed all that out (again), and my therapist said "I feel like it's unprofessional to say this, but -- your parents are FUCKED UP." I assured her that that is the most reasonable reaction to their nonsense. (My brother's therapist is the same way -- once when my brother started off a session by saying that our Dad called him the day before, his therapist said, "Christ, THIS asshole again!")

I'm not watching the hearing. I just can't. But I am SUPER glad that The Good Place is back tonight! And don't forget -- it's an hour long tonight!

What is even happening?

Here are ridiculously cute animal videos and photos. I don't have an Instagram. If you do, this might not be news to you, but I found it was a good way to occupy myself for a little while.

Blasey Ford looks an awful lot like one of my cousins, which has upped my outrage (even though the meter was already pinned).
