WTF Wednesday: So We Agree It’s A Bad Idea For These People To Own A Gun?
Believe it or not, it took a case escalating all the way to the Supreme Court to confirm that people convicted of domestic abuse can be prevented from owning a gun. Sure, those convicted of felony domestic violence lose their … Continue reading
WTF Wednesday: When Exactly Did I Become A Walking Health Hazard?
My life lately begs this question. Because BC (before cancer) I was a reasonably healthy person. Truly. I got the occasional sinus infection or whatever, had a bad case of the flu once, but that was the extent of it. … Continue reading
WWJGD: What Would Jane Goodall Do?
I know, everyone has an opinion on the child-falling-into-gorilla-pen drama, but of course mine is the most important, and hopefully, the most entertaining. First of all, gorillas on display in a pen at a zoo. Not good. Not good for … Continue reading

Kids, Don’t Try This At Home: The Nastygram

WTF Wednesday: Why Is Everyone Worried About What’s Under Someone Else’s Dress?
This transgender bathroom situation is a wholly manufactured problem. There is an implicit social contract when we use the restroom; we assume we’re all there for the same purpose, and no need to ask for birth certificates. It never crossed … Continue reading

What The World Needs Now: Another Adorable Cat Story
I feel like I’ve been overdoing the cat blogs lately, but then again with four cats I’m overdoing the whole cat thing, so I guess it follows suit. We’ve not had a TV in our room for a couple of … Continue reading
WTF Wednesday: Why Doesn’t Caremark Care?
Sometimes fact really is stranger than fiction. I mean, stuff that you couldn’t dream up if you tried. Stuff that results in a lengthy blog post that absolutely demands a number of ALL CAPS and italics instances, as well as a record … Continue reading
