Giraffes Might Be Totally Fucked But Jagger’s Species Is Solid.

Trump Vows To Tax Businesses 35% If They Ship Jobs Overseas
Trump vows to tax businesses 35% if they ship jobs overseas. In theory, that sounds pretty reasonable to me. But this will also mean the prices of items/goods created and made in the U.S. will rise, mostly likely by quite a bit. That said, if people aren’t ALSO being paid substantially more, they will buy…

My Latest Cake
This is for Elliot’s kindergarten teacher. It’s her birthday. She likes chocolate, dark chocolate, cherries and flowers. Behold: an explosion of her favorites.

Did You Vote For Trump?
How are you justifying Trump having appointed a racist, antisemite as his White House chief strategist? I am sincerely trying to figure out how anyone can still overlook what’s happening here. Stop normalizing this. It’s not normal. This is wrong on SO MANY levels. Maybe he’s bluffing. Maybe he suggested Bannon knowing everyone would freak out and then he’ll actually…
