Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

On a scale of 1 to rice-in-a-tube, how pathetic are the Trader Joes pre-boiled eggs?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm at a dinner with people who I tend to find on the annoying side, and they're talking politics. I'm trying not to jump into the fray, screaming things like "misogyny!", "fuckwitted Hitleresque horror show!", and "it's DEMOCRATIC socialism!"

More in Illinois politics. Apparently the National Republican Senatorial Committee tweeted something about Tammy Duckworth "not standing up" for veterans. I can't imagine that was an unintentional choice of words.

Daaaang.

Saw the first Bernie add today. The only other I've seen is a very confusing one for Rubio, who, it assures me, "Stood up to the Republican establishment--and WON!". Huh?

AND just this second I passed some Soto people putting up signs. FTR, I remain unstapled.

Pre boiled eggs are valid if you are making something with them like egg salad or deviled eggs?

Greetings from Chile! Exhausted but omg walking back from dinner it had gotten dark out and the STARS here. My god.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Eh, boiling eggs is kind of a hassle. Convenience and expeditiousness, I'm all for it. As long as you don't already have a dozen eggs sitting in your fridge needing to be eaten up, that would change the calculus considerably.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I've bought them at Whole Foods. When I only want 2, it seems appropriate.

FTR, I remain unstapled.

That's good.

Rainy March, eclipse weather (it is not raining in Micronesia, it's raining here. Apparently a bit cloudy there, though)
