this is a great piece. among the many oddities of the recent girlboss feminism fad was (in my view) the idea that the exclusion of men in particular settings, networks, etc was key to the project. that seems to me to completely circumvent the whole point of feminism lol — PolitiTweet.org

so that's it! that is the solution to the mystery of what happens to all the stuff i bake, ha. i go through a lot of disposable aluminum take-away containers from costco, glad press n' seal wrap, gallon ziplocs and baker's twine. and i'm very grateful to do it. — PolitiTweet.org

she's a hero. and a while ago she let me know that she always knows a kid or two or a whole family who could use a batch of cookies, some crescent rolls, an egg nog bundt cake, fresh muffins. so when i bake, i let my friend know. i save a little for my family, and pack the rest. — PolitiTweet.org

my friend helps them sketch out these plans for getting on track and she also helps them adhere to the plans -- she gives them rides, takes them to doctor's appointments, gets help with homework, arranges tutoring, basically becomes a family member to them. — PolitiTweet.org

some of them have been thrown out by their parents and are facing homelessness. some are recent or undocumented immigrants. some are struggling with addiction. some are effectively caretakers for their own parents, younger siblings, or relatives. some are parents themselves. — PolitiTweet.org

my friend helps kids who have been arrested work through a kind of first-strike system, where they're able to avoid formal charges if they make a plan to get back on track, go to school, and achieve certain goals. these kids have all kinds of challenges. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
lol it is because the answer is lame: i do not keep most of what i cook. main dishes, like chili, brisket, etc. matt eats over many days. but baked goods -- the majority of what i make -- go to a friend of mine who works with kids facing the criminal justice system. — PolitiTweet.org

@AliceFromQueens i remember thinking she was very pretty -- also middle-aged, good makeup, maybe her brows were a little thin, but she chose her colors and finishes well and looked fit. it was cold and rainy and she looked sort of chagrinned to be dressed up pretty in that weather, though. — PolitiTweet.org

the guy goes: look i don't wanna have any trouble. and matt says: we're not having any trouble. at that point, the t-swizzle track ended and she started transitioning into another song and the guy kinda ushered his date away and that was the last we saw of him. lol. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
after a couple beats, the guy turned around to see that he was no longer aggressively dancing against a 4'11'' lady, but rather grinding his bony ass on a 6'2'' dude who was smiling serenely at him, buddha-like, totally zen. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
so this weird middle aged angry dude is boogying directly in front of me -- maybe a half-step in front of me, so close he's shaking rainwater on me with his dancing -- and then matt very gently shepherds me into /his/ spot, and matt takes my place. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
now at that moment, the guy decided to enact a plan. (it is important in understanding his strategy that you know i am 4'11''.) he grabbed my arm, tugged me a step or two back, and wedged his way directly in front of me. then he started dancing. like, just really going for it. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
he kept saying: listen to me lady, i'm not gonna tell you twice, get out of my way, you are in my seat, you need to GET out of the WAY, right NOW and i was like: i have moved as much as i can sir!! i was getting sort of stressed out, and i looked at matt, who had observed it all — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
as in, it would theoretically have been possible to sort every person in this row of seats out into their specific seat, but it was an outdoor concert and that would require a military effort. so i kind of scooted as best i could, but the guy was still really angry. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
it was rainy, and i had this polka dot poncho on, and about halfway through the show this middle-aged dude shows up with his date and he's like: you're in my seat. i showed him my ticket, apologized, and said, well, we're all just kind of squished in here, standing? — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
so one year matt and i went with some family friends to a taylor swift concert. it was very fun! we had good seats decently close up, and since the venue was outdoors, the whole 'seating' thing was pretty ad hoc — we found our spots and settled in for the show, standing ofc. — PolitiTweet.org

wait so there's a very funny story about this — PolitiTweet.org

making bread is super easy — it's like 10 m of work in 2 increments: you get the dough together, you leave it alone. you shape it, you leave it alone. you put it in the oven, you leave it alone. then it's done! same thing with corned beef -- brine it and forget it, then braise — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Valentine's Day folks. St. Valentine is the patron saint of epileptics, so I wrote this time last year about being one such person, and the reason I am in my own strange way grateful for it. https://t.co/rKpu2euh2K https://t.co/Mt0IDZuWGy — PolitiTweet.org

i think that since we both grew up on the internet, we take the same approach to the bizarre, puzzling, often deranged remarks people make #onhere: they are weird and funny — PolitiTweet.org
