Sorry, but us hairless chimps will forever be scared of the other hairless chimps on the other side of the hill.

Amazing how many people think Trump is actually in charge.

How dare you! My mummy is a saint!

Okay, a god, but still...

Thanks! It's not a job I'm dying for, so I'm thinking of it more as practice, but I will take anything if it means we can get over there in January and afford basic things like a home and food.

What, I'm supposed to use my kitchen scale for something other than cocaine?

It really did rain on my wedding day and I did not see the irony of the situation. We were inside so it really wasn't a problem.

Yes, that's me. Got my first job interview tomorrow. At 3:30 am. Apparently the Earth isn't as flat as certain people on the internet would have you believe.

And yeah, there were a surprising number of brown people who voted for Trump, especially men. I don't get it. He hasn't been even a little secretive about what his plans are. They really don't get that they could get caught up in this insane net of Trump's.

There is a small Holocaust museum in the town where I currently live. It was founded by Eva Kor, an amazing Holocaust survivor (and Mengele victim) who preached forgiveness, even publicly forgiving the Nazis who tortured her and killed her family. She settled here in Terre Haute, Indiana and eventually opened the museum.

Except when school buses are there to force the local kids to go (and I'm sure they aren't really interested), the parking lot is almost always empty.

People don't give a shit about the last Holocaust. No reason for them to give a shit about this one.

There's a reason why a lot of my family tree doesn't fork and it's why I'm getting the fuck out.

The island lies 1,700 km (1,100 mi) north of the Princess Astrid Coast of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica, 1,870 km (1,160 mi) east of the South Sandwich Islands, 1,845 km (1,146 mi) south of Gough Island, and 2,520 km (1,570 mi) south-southwest of the coast of South Africa. It has an area of 49 km2 (19 sq mi), 93 percent of which is covered by a glacier. The centre of the island is the ice-filled crater of an inactive volcano. Some skerries and one smaller island, Larsøya, lie along its coast. Nyrøysa, created by a rock slide in the late 1950s, is the only easy place to land and is the location of a weather station.

It was like my own Millennium Falcon holo-chess, except, you know, not that cool.
