Nightmare scenario for a woman or anyone unable to mount a physical response. And for those of us who can fight back, the makings of a life-altering lawsuit. Fucking barbaric. Obviously this was the best outcome of such a scenario but it’s

Here in Seattle my farm feeds raccoons, birds, deer, squirrels, rabbits, mice, rats, and bears. Occasionally the orchards are left with some for us ;)

Yeah so some Dutch guy wants to bring the community together while washing clothes communally. Uh, no. I’ve done it. It’s exhausting, backbreaking, shockingly inefficient, and feels gross. Someone’s going to slack off, people will gossip, e

I learned the same phrase in perfect BBC Polish and it backfired. I said it so well that the Poles just ignored it and continued to speak in Polish. Then I ended up with a Polish girlfriend back in the states and learned real fast. She was

I will complain to my small and completely uninterested social circle that I live in Seattle and there is almost no chance of a clear night sky when the asteroid flies by. So thank you for letting me vent.

I structured all my jobs to allow a quiet place to think and to take walks. Lived in California, Arizona, and Washington, all wonderful places to take walks. Anecdata: I need fresh air and strongly prefer to keep windows open in most kinds
