Stuff I saw on the internet last week: "This tastes unlucky to me"
Happy Monday! I hope y’all are going easy on yourselves and remembering to celebrate your small victories. For example, I began eating a bag of Smart Food last night and managed not to eat the whole thing in one sitting. Progress! Anyway, let’s get onto internet things.

This month on I Hate It But I Love It, Jocelyn and I are sharing movies we truly love — last week, I presented the warm, fun, and great roller derby movie Whip It, which is great, and on this Wednesday’s episode, Jocelyn will present the Bob Fosse semi-autobiographical film All That Jazz.

Keep going, little guy! You can do it!
This is the stupidest fucking hill to die on:
Usually my fiance is level headed, but I guess she's really close with her cousin and the gift meant a lot to her. However, growing up with my trauma I can't allow this. I texted her and told her that it's either me or the tablecloth. My mental health is much too important.
I also want to clarify that our table is expensive, so covering it up with something so tacky is really disappointing. I told her can't she just ask her cousin to make coasters instead. That's the only way I'll compromise.
But Becca wanted to save money after the doctors and not make up the saline and ‘waste water’ so she’s been using her leftover pasta water to clean her piercing??? Because that’s basically salt and water???
A satisfying tale of an entitled parent discovering they actually have to parent:
David comes to our cabin early in the morning, wrangling his kids... And with his ski gear with him. We are starting to get geared up, and he does too. Friend asks him what is he doing.
David: Well I'm going to ski?
Friend: What about your kids?
David: Well the girls who aren't coming can watch them.
Friend : Everyone is going, those who don't ski go hiking. The girls aren't here to watch your kids.
David:... Well someone has to stay to watch the kids. They are used to being watched by women.
Friend: Your kids. So, you.
I love this absolute unit:
