After my husband caught me having an affair with a stranger, he never touched me again.
For 15 years, we lived like strangers under the same roof until one doctor’s appointment shattered everything I thought I knew.

I grew up in Houston and it always seemed to me as we had big immigration waves, that it wasn't just the immigrants that acclimated to our way of live, but we acclimated to theirs as well. Like a connection between. And honestly that's how it should be in this 250 year old country. We don't have thousands of years of one culture, we have 250 of many. So when someone says. Immigrants no longer integrate into society what they really mean is, they don't integrate with the society they experienced in their bubble, or the society they watched in movies. Houston has always been known for it's super diversity, and it's a big part of why Houston is special.
Texas its self has a culture that doesn't fit into what someone in Ohio might think is the American culture. And Houston is super different than Dallas which is super different than Austin.
Maybe next time you take a trip with your family to get some Mexican food, or some kolaches, or Thai, you think about that. Because those are as American as apple pie, and we're better off for it.
A Spanish language Super Bowl halftime performance by a top American artist is not an attack on American culture.
It is a reflection of it. More than 40 million Americans speak Spanish. In thriving American cities like Miami, where I live, it is commonplace.
If you feel attacked simply by people speaking in or singing Spanish you are the problem.
It’s 10:30 on a Friday night and I really need people to know that if Greg Abbott truly wanted the citizens of Texas to have property tax relief, he would’ve instructed his army of purchased GOP legislators to use the 24 BILLION dollar budget surplus for that purpose.
He didn’t.
People are being taxed out of their homes and he’s promising to “fix in next time.”
People are being taxed out of their homes while he creates a tax haven for billionaires in our state.
For the love of Texas, do NOT give this man another term.
Women are 51% of the population but 60% of the poor and 83% of single parents doing 66% of the work producing 50% of the food but earn just 11% of the pay and own only 20% of the land
All while giving birth to 100% of the population.
In case you wondered why we still need feminism.
The United States of America spends astronomically more on healthcare and has by far worse health outcomes than any other industrialized nation in the world.
The difference? We are the only country that has refused to enact a universal healthcare model.
There are 31 systems to study and replicate. As our healthcare system implodes, enough is enough.
Not only is healthcare a human right, but we can no longer afford a system that puts profits over people.
If we don’t have a governing body capable of resisting the predatory insurance company lobbyists and finally enacting a plan that brings America up to the healthcare standards of the rest of the world, then it is time to vote them out and elect people who will.
If you’re okay with SNAP benefits being cut off right before thanksgiving while trump gives $40 billion to Argentina to bail out their tanking stock market, you’re not only stupid, but you’re a terrible fucking person.
Mike McDaniel should resign in shame. Weaver should do the same. They've lost the team and team has no discipline. Tua has to go too. Complete rebuild coming. #finsdown#miamidolphins
NEW: California will be the first state in the nation to sell its own insulin.
It will be $11.
No Big Pharma price gouging.
Simple, affordable healthcare. As it should be.
