Logged in to Facebook for the first time in forever to see what was up with one specific person. I saw my feed and was like, "Oh my god, all these people I know and love and am never in contact with anymore!" 20 minutes later I was like, "Oh, that's right, I hate this place."

If anyone on here works at Politics & Prose or other bookstores that are scheduled to host Chuck Schumer, I have a proposal—if you cancel his event, I would pledge to buy a book of equal value or make a donation to make sure you didn’t lose revenue—and I bet a lot of others would too.

Before spending 2.5 years exercising multiple times a week, I disliked exercise and felt perfectly happy when it wasn't a part of my life.
After spending 2.5 years exercising multiple times a week, I still dislike exercise, but also no longer feel good about myself if I don't do it.
