Once Again, MIA
It seems like every time I want to get back into my Tumblr groove, something comes along & fucks it up. I've been dealing with some crazy family stuff that barely allows even my thoughts to be my own. Another reason why being an adult sucks. Anyway, I'll be sticking my head in occasionally- especially when I need some balance 😉
Accurate
there’s only one way i want to end this year and that’s drunk
- I was going through my old posts today and realized how much I loved making these lists that covered absolutely everything and nothing at the same time. - 3%- HOLY HELL!! I've been in fetal position, rocking back and forth because I don't want to watch it all in a day. I don't know if I'm gonna make it. - Which brings me to my next point- 8 episodes!!?? Really Netflix!? Come the fuck on!! - 'Tis the season of heart-stopping anxiety attacks. Not even Christmas music brings me joy anymore. It has gotten so bad over the past few years that I refuse to watch any type of live tv because of the Christmas commercials. Just no. - I finished my first book ever on Audible. I have never been able to listen to a book. I could never concentrate on the story; I would end up falling asleep, or being two hours in and not knowing a damn thing about what was happening. I "read" Dark Matter by Blake Crouch. I think I would've enjoyed it a lot more if I actually read it, but the audiobook was at least a great exercise in being present & in the moment. It also made cleaning go by a lot quicker. I think I'll give another genre a try. - My kids turned 13 & 19 last week. I still can't get over that. They were 1 & 7 two weeks ago 😩 - I went down the ID Discovery hole the other day. Currently researching how to build a moat around the house, & about alligator care.
A series of unfortunate events this week culminated in me watching 20 episodes of The Gilmore Girls.
What follows is not pretty. If you are a fan of the show, just keep scrolling because you're really not going to like this.
If you decide to keep reading, just know this- I really don’t know how intense this fandom is but I imagine it’s up there if Netflix brought it back to life, so go easy on ya girl. I just need to vent.
ON TO THE MAIN EVENT:
I have never been a fan of Lauren Graham; she’s always playing the same quirky character that has no filter and her charm is just sooo irresistible that no one can say no to that babbling widdle nut!
I really didn’t know much about Alexis Bledel, except that she was in that movie about the jeans that my daughter watched 95,000 times. But not to fret! I’ve learned everything I needed to learn about her, and let me say, she was the perfect choice for Graham’s daughter.
Holy hell, that little baby voice, oh GOD that baby voice. I couldn’t take it. Every time she opened her mouth I had to put a pillow over my head because the earplugs were just not enough. That can’t possibly be her real voice, it just can’t. Biedel really sealed the deal for me. She almost made me wish Netflix didn’t exist. Yeah, it’s that serious.
And then you put those two together and sprinkle it with Melissa McCarthy’s constant happy shrieks- I tell you, I don’t know how I survived. I’m certain I blacked out during some of the episodes; my brain roofied itself.
Then come the forced pop culture references…
Let’s just leave it at that because it’s just too much to tackle on a Saturday.
And lest we forget the 1001 literary references per episode. We get it, you’ve read everything, EVERYTHING.
I’m someone who really enjoys hearing literary reference in movies & tv shows, but when 300 references are shoved into 14 episodes, it makes me feel like the writers just gave up.
Last but not least, why would I care about these people? Small town Connecticut where money does not seem to be an issue, even for the most humble. And the main characters come from a filthy rich family but decide to make it on their own- but if the going gets tough (and by tough i mean, “I just got a check for a million dollars but the ivy league school I want to go to denied my financial aid application waaaaaaaah”) - Mommy & Daddy save the day!
You have no idea how happy I am to be free of that hell. The First thing I did when I got my freedom back was call Netflix to suggest that they warn adults about the hellish dangers that lurk in these seemingly innocuous shows.
Again, if you like this show then bully for you. This is my very descriptive personal opinion. It’s the only way I know how to purge feelings. Feelings purged. Back to your regular scheduled nonsense :)
Black vs Latino Sansgiving- I'm the one throwing the Adobo like confetti 🎉 #thisexactlyhowitgodown #exceptforabuelainathongpiece #shewearsaregulartwopiece #lawwwdprayforme #😂 #sansgivingisthebestdayoftheyear #treatyoself

Watch: President Obama delivers pointedly feminist speech at United State of Women summit
THIS IS MY MOTHERFUCKING PRESIDENT!!! I think in all my life i’ve only been proud to be “American” under his presidency. No one will compare 😢
You know that saying, "you don't know what you've got till you lose it"? That's gonna be the USA's new slogan come 2017.
like, genuine question, is 2016 the result of TOO MANY TIME TRAVELLERS coming back and trying to fix things but only breaking them even more???
You know how many times I have thought this very same thing!? It’s the only explanation.
hey wait whatever happened to the murder clowns? did that just suddenly end? i just realized ive seen nothing of that in a while
one of them became president
Correction- Their LEADER became president, and he’s currently appointing the rest as staff.
"For 18 excruciating months, we were expected to entertain the fantasy that a person could vote for Trump without voting for racism, for xenophobia, for rape culture- when that campaign’s very slogan vowed to drag us backward to a time when the US was “great”, a time before people of colour and women and LGBTQ Americans had inked, in blood, our few hard-won protections into law.
It’s gaslighting on a galactic scale.
Blaming political correctness for President Trump is like blaming the civil rights movement for Jim Crow, or feminism for rape culture, or Stonewall for anti-gay hate crimes.
It’s every battered wife who has been murdered by her husband when she tries to leave. It’s “I wouldn’t have to hurt you if you’d just behave.”
...Trump is a man who believes in registering Muslims, restraining black protesters with violence, building a wall on the Mexican border and non-consensually grabbing women by the genitals – and you don’t think he has a vested interest in tamping down the dissent of Muslims, black people, immigrants, and women?
He is institutional silencing personified.
Are you sure political correctness went too far? Are you sure we were overreacting?"
