There are a million girls here cheering for a young guy who purposely chooses female opening acts, has a band comprised of half females, wears a puffy shirt, and hoists a rainbow flag. All while telling everyone to be exactly who they are. Don’t tell me this doesn’t matter.

Last week, some dude yelled across the street, “Lady with the pink hair! Your hair color is great on you!” And then he kept going. That was it. Just a nice compliment, not at all creepy, and he just CARRIED ON WITH HIS JOURNEY.

I pulled into my driveway at 9:00. Shortly thereafter, my mom called to let me know that my dad died at nearly the same moment. We sent him off, and he waited until he saw me home safely. Life is brutal and hideous and somehow magical and perfect, all at once.

So I have three kids, and we live the most ... empty life, when it comes to structured activities. Old school summers with nothing but swimming and the outdoors and being bored. One thing that is super important to note, though, is that it’s only privilege that lets us do this.

Hi. I had an abortion for no other reason than I did not want to be pregnant. Cut the shit about it being a moral quandary except for the people who REALLY deserve abortions. I JUST WANTED ONE. IT WAS MEDICAL CARE.

Also, my friend's partner is off the vent and out of the ICU, thanks to COVID convalescent plasma. It is sweet fucking relief, because his organs were starting to shut down. He'll be in there for a while longer, but in a regular room. He is awake, alert, himself. I'm grateful.

My husband works for a Medicare services company, and they are taking it extremely seriously, making sure their patients are covered, set up with prescriptions, etc. It is deeply fucked when an insurance company is taking greater care of its patients than our own country.

Sam’s ELA class is reading Lily and Duncan, which includes a trans character, and a) this is the best; b) Sam stood up, explained they were non-binary, what that means, and took questions from the class. I could not be more proud of this kid. They’re more badass than I EVER was.

Reading about Chrissy Teigan's loss was like a sucker punch. It doesn't matter how past that time in your life you are, losing a much-wanted pregnancy is visceral, and never leaves. I feel for them so much, all the way in my bones. It is HORRIBLE, horrible, horrible.

52% of white women voted for Trump in 2016 and New York Times exit polls predict this to be 55% in 2020.
