The One Where All the Candidates Are Friends

Maybe it's that campaigns sense the Democratic base is wary of bickering after the acrimonious 2016 primary. Maybe they're trying to compete for future endorsements or jobs. But staffers insist that after years of serving together, many of the presidential contenders just genuinely like each other

I’ll never, ever be sorry for expecting most of life to be this way.

lol sorry for being a bitch but for 8 months my life was awesome and like something straight out of a movie and now I'm going to go home and be directionless and sad and I'm not sure how to deal.

I’m about to lose $500 a month when my dependent son with panic/anxiety turns 18 and my existing 3 jobs have all cut back my hours. Aside from requiring me to get $500 worth of re-certifications and registrations with the College, all the jobs in my field are being offered by agencies which give  preference to  visible minorities and/or GLBTQ. Being Jewish and mentally ill doesn’t make the cut.

At this point I’m going to have to covert to Islam AND publicly announce that I’m bisexual just to keep a roof over my head and food on my plate.
