Fuck Your Bullshit Tide Pod Outrage

In the United States, there were only 39 reported cases of intentional ingestion of laundry pods among teenagers in all of 2016, and only 53 in all of 2017. These are statistically insignificant numbers. It is a non-issue. Stop acting like millions of teens are doing this. They aren’t. Shut the fuck up about it. It is fake news.

In Memoriam: Delores O’Riordan

Dolores Mary Eileen O’Riordan, 6 September 1971 – 15 January 2018

Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?
But I’m in so deep.
You know I’m such a fool for you.
You’ve got me wrapped around your finger…

It’s impossible to be my age, read this, and not hear her finish the chorus in your head.

Tidy

I cleaned my house today. And by “cleaned my house” I mean that I refrained from throwing trash directly onto the floor. I threw it on top of some other trash that was already on the floor. It’s all about the baby steps, people. #allaboutthebabysteps

Wendy Carlos

Am I completely out of my fucking mind, or did anybody else notice that, during the New Year’s Day Oklahoma game, one of the marching bands kept playing the theme from The Shining? It’s a very weird and recognizable piece of music, so I don’t think I’m wrong about this. But my being wrong makes a hell of a lot more sense than a college marching band playing the theme from The Shining at a goddamned bowl game.
