My husband insists a nap counts as an activity. I’m unconvinced.

For my nautical fantasy I learned to scuba dive, to sail, consulted a navy captain about swordfighting, studied iguana biology, swam in lochs and rivers and seas, mucked about endlessly with archery and axes and knives I mean I did all that before I decided to write it, but it still counts

One of the greatest joys of adulthood these days is discovering music new to me. Before tonight, I’d never listened to Mark Knopfler’s solo stuff. Exactly what my soul needed tonight.

Found “Doctor Smurf” in a box of things my mom had saved for me (early 80’s). Got me thinking there should be a Hacker Smurfette. That’d be smurfy.

There are some MST3k movies so bad that the host and the bots are just screaming “END! ENNND!” at the screen and that’s how I feel about this presidency

Sometimes my OCD surprises even me. Intending to delete a sentence, I noticed a misspelling, corrected it, and then deleted the sentence.

Nearly three decades have passed since release and I’m listening to “Leave” by R.E.M. for this first time… phenomenal song. Love it.

It has taken medical science 200 years to advance humans to the point where people are so healthy and living so long that they can deny that science and medicine is what got us here.

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that. The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one. This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

I work as an elder and hospice caregiver, which I am oddly passionate about. I can love on them shamelessly and no one complains about my codependence. It's a win-win situation. 

Many of my caregiving colleagues complain about the repetitive questions and, sometimes reactions, of the elderly, especially when those patients happen to read the newspaper, especially with the current downward spiral of our country — as if these people haven't lived through enough horror...

I love my dementia peeps, but sometimes wonder if there's a Guinness Book World Record for how many times an hour a dementia patient can repeat the same question — it's got to be in the hundreds. At least with small children, they ask different questions. Dementia patients will get stuck on one short question and ask it until you can interrupt their train(carousel) of thought and successfully redirect their attention. That carousel is pretty manic sometimes. 

A couple days ago, I picked up my mail from the post office and drove over to the nursing home to take (let's call her "Miss Daisy") Miss Daisy out for a drive. Before we took off on our road trip, to the end of The Road and back, in our landlocked little town (Juneau, Alaska), I set my copy of The Onion down in front of her. 

Over our two-hour excursion, tiny Miss Daisy read that front page at least a dozen times and each time she would snicker, giggle, and guffaw, then put it down on the dash board and, a minute later, discover it anew. I think it was the best afternoon of my life. We don't often hear them laugh and when they do, it's the sweetest thing you've ever heard. 

...

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for the really important work all of you do. You make the world a better place.

I will never understand who at Microsoft thought this was okay. It's a profoundly gross UX pattern.

I recently rewatched Waterworld, and I've decided to revise my answer to "how do you know Megalodon is extinct and mermaids aren't real" to "Because I've sailed farther than most men have dreamed, and I've never seen it." Thank you for your attention to this matter!

A lot of this discourse is going to seem enormously weird when getting shot into space for a few minutes is cheaper than DisneyLand

A small town in Germany turns its town hall into the 'world's largest' advent calendar each December. It started as a way to boost businesses in the winter, but it's grown to mean much more.

Nothing says “raised by a virgo” quite like using my day-after-Thanksgiving off to properly deep clean the kitchen.

A nut is fine all on its own, and really has no business being a part of anything else (Thai food and chocolate smothering aside). Nobody’s doing that cookie or pie any favors by adding a cup of nuts. Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃
