American friends, are you taking Friday off too? Trying to figure in advance what's going on down there for business reasons. Like, should I wait til Monday to drop you an email, or....?

100% agree
As Steve Bannon will start serving his 4 month sentence on July 1, here is my latest reminder that prison rape jokes are NEVER funny. If a country were to explicitly sentence a defendant to be raped, we would rightfully be offended. Joking as if rape is a de facto part of sentence is not better.

And it's done. I'm sad but not disappointed. They gave us 7 great games. Well done, Edmonton!

“Everything happens for a reason” … no it doesn’t. There is no reason. There’s no more reason for that or this or anything else than there is for a rock or a cloud or a color. Compliment a goat. Eat a lampshade. Mail a turtle to a stranger. Be chaos or be entropy but don’t pretend it matters 🙌

“A study that followed a cohort of nearly 34,000 women, found that those who frequently used chemical hair-straightening products, a majority of whom were Black women, were two and a half times as likely to develop uterine cancer as those who did not use the products.”
The Disturbing Truth About Hair Relaxerswww.nytimes.com They’ve been linked to reproductive disorders and cancers. Why are they still being marketed so aggressively to Black women?

In sympathy for Calgary, I, too, am reducing my water usage by delaying my laundry by another day.

My brother, a 25 year Google employee, was the first person to warn me never to use Google Home or any of their other hardware unless I want the entire internet to have easy access to my life. They're fucking sieves.

I can't believe my life choices. I'm watching the icy sports game. I have beer but neglected to buy chips. Total fail.

GOP campaigns staffed with young operatives who are into Nazi stuff is bad actually. Very charitable explanation of "just trolling" is still quite bad. Do you know what they called people who weren't into Hitler's worst ideas but backed him because they liked how it bothered people they hate? Nazis.

After the author showed who she really was, I got my tattoo covered up with something far better: Star Trek. Deep Space 9 is the best Star Trek, and the Defiant is...well, it's the Defiant.
reminder: Harry Potter tattoos have a higher regret rate than trans surgeries and that's very funny actually
