For the first time in my adult life I didn’t want to smoke! July 12th, 2016 Posted by Mush. In which there’s good news. We flew to DC last Thursday so I could see Amma. Every previous layover on every previous flight I’ve ever taken, I’ve furiously crunched times in my head and if there was enough, I rushed to smoke. Is there a smoking lounge in this airport? How far is it from my gate? Can I get there and back in time? Will I miss my flight? And on arrival, the same thing: where am I meeting my ride?

Dear “I’m not racist” Brexiter,. Honey, I don’t look. Angry, I am. Angry I am mostly angry at the people who duped you and other Brexiters to vote the way you did, like turkeys for Christmas. But I am also angry at you and other Brexiters for continuing to stick to your guns long after every single thing the Brexit campaign said has been exposed as a lie (and they’ve admitted.

Do not vote third party. July 29th, 2016 Posted by Mush. In which I lecture people on Facebook who will never read this. Do not vote third party. Not in this election. I can understand not liking Clinton, but voting for anybody else is a vote for Trump. Certainly not. I don’t like her at all. Is it absurd and baffling that the GOP couldn’t be bothered to field a real candidate and we ended up with this reality TV fucktard? Is it all just infuriating, insulting, dumb, and awful? Yes Yes it is. This is not...

Patterns in the Void. The Forest for the Trees. Monday, 13 June 2016. By isis agora lovecruft. It feels rather sardonic to say this now, openly, after two years spent alternating between trying to inhibit my rage and convince myself that I hadn’t been hurt, followed by seeking out other victims, in order to develop the collective capacity to defend ourselves and to have the simple ability to speak out in a manner which would be heard and not discarded. First, some backstory is in order. I’ve been s...

Vintage Corning Ware pans are amazeballs and you should get some. August 24th, 2016 Posted by Mush. In which I wax enthusiastic about a very old product! Even with shipping, I got a frying pan, a sauce pan, and two lids for $25. Which is a really decent price, considering you could easily pay almost that for a lidded 6″ non-stick that you’d have to throw out and replace in two years. These things are awesome! They heat up just as fast as cheap non-stick pans, and while they’re not non-stick. In this patt...
