I've been accused of mom shaming now. I'm legit cackling. Fun story: my SIL called me "trash like what you marchers left on the street" for taking my daughter to the women's march. I took the conversation offline and texted her that it hurt me that she would get so personal and attack my parenting choices, assuring her that I had assessed the risk of attending the march in our small city. She replied that she was "just being honest and would tell me when I was endangering my child and acting like trash." This is a person who has a toddler and a (locked) cabinet of guns in her living room, about which I have never uttered a peep. #family #sweetmemories Uh...this is not someone I would still be connected to on FB (or at the very least, have her restricted to what she can see) and in person contact would be minimal. And I'm not saying that because of the guns.

And I'm not saying that because of the guns. I unfollowed her posts and I see her one time a year for about 2 days with other people around. Just saw her this week, actually, and she was pretty normal, but yes, it's hard to forget how shitty she has been in the past. Also, while we were visiting, she was like "I hope Michelle runs for president." And I was like, "Michellle... Bachmann?" And she was like "No, Michelle Obama." And I was like oh cool so all those racist, sexist, homophobic, and anti-Obama memes you posted for 8 years were shitsngiggles or wut. Color me confused.

Probably so she could re-use those racist, etc memes that are just sitting there burning a hole in her memory card again

I saw Bradley Whitford go in on her. It made me feel warm and fuzzy When do I get to talk about how bad season 7 is? I have three more episodes to go.

I've been accused of mom shaming now. I'm legit cackling. If saying "hey maybe using a mf'ing bullet in a koozie" for your child is shaming. I'm all for it. SHAME AWAY A piece of paper rolled up, a spork, a lego, a steak knife. All better things to use The fact that a bullet was more readily available or obvious to her kid than any of these tells me a lot. What it doesn't tell me is that he's a boy.

Ugh, late to this party, but I guess my UO is that I harbor no affection for the royal family. DNW to watch their weddings or hear about their gossip. Even while watching The Crown, which is a great show, all I can think about is what a pointless institution the monarchy is. I lived in London for a couple of years and my British friends (admittedly all leftist academic types) haaaaate the monarchy and want to do away with it - and with all unjust royal titles, the House of Lords, etc. - completely. It codifies and maintains a rigid class structure in the UK that is at odds with most citizens' sense of equality and fairness. JK. That is a very valid opinion that I will ignore while giggling about how the corgis took to Meghan right away after barking at Harry his whole life.

Also the Leo story line is bad but that was kind of out of their hands.

Yeah, I think it's just overall a bit sloppy compared to the earlier seasons. And the Josh and Donna thing has been sort of blah so far. I'll give it a few more episodes. I also find Josh to be kind of a douche, so there's that. Long story short I miss looking at Rob Lowe's beautiful face.

This makes me happy because it seems like there are never any consequences for him spouting off whatever he wants on Twitter.
But also I want a resolution to DACA so idk.

My brother watched my kids this morning so that I could go to the dentist and then had a long conversation about healthcare I'm sort of disheartened that he still thinks of the ACA as a bad thing. I just don't get it.

I still have laryngitis but I am going to attempt to call Johnson's office today to tell him to vote no on the tax bill.
