Sometimes my wife and I like to send each other text messages as though they’re democratic fundraising messages, and I believe she has produced the jewel of the form.
, it's
and I
have some personal news to share with you.
Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel deeply that we should have salad tonight
This year has been challenging in many ways, and I have immense gratitude for the kindness and support of family, community, and people like you who have continued to stand by me through everything. It means the world, and I wanted you to be among the first to know that squash is in the oven and kale is in the fridge.As many of you are aware, ve been navigating one of the most challenging periods of my day while waiting for dinner.
Facing baseless federal hunger brought on by not eating since lunch, fighting for the working kids of this country, and now caring for a mean toddler and helping him grow up in a world that isn't always easy. But it has also reminded me exactly why I do this work and who I do it for.
I will never stop working to eat dinner. I will never stop fighting for what is right, even when there is also some feta in the fridge. And I will never stop being so very thankful that you are by my side in this important work and that there is tahini in the pantry for dressing
With love and gratitude,
stop to end

I think a lot of teams fans are like this now and it’s a recent thing born in part from the rise of fantasy football and fans hyper focused on player stats. Growing up a Niner fan, Montana was king for 4th quarter comebacks and now that would be a negative I think, why can’t this team start strong?

An episode of the Six Million Dollar Man where someone was trying to convince Steve Austin that his soul had left his body or something with this ghostly projection? I was definitely convinced.

But there’s still time. A mysterious group of donors has activated a 900% MATCH, meaning your $5 becomes $50, your $10 becomes $100, and our understanding of arithmetic becomes increasingly theoretical.

I skipped high school to buy tickets for The Phantom Menace. The following day my Dad asked ," how was school?" I replied, " It was fine " He then threw this newspaper at me and asked , " how the fuck would you know?" He was so pleased with himself that I didn't actually get in trouble.
Newspaper where I am on the front page, in line for Star Wars tickets , having given the reporter my full government name Closeup of the photo from the Newspaper where I am on the front page, in line for Star Wars tickets , having given the reporter my full government name .

As one pal put it, " a very John Conner look "Closeup of the text for the photo that says 

" Ticket wars

🫡Liam Hendriks on a fabulous career. Incedible pitcher and an even better person. His Hercu-Liam performance in the 2020 Wild Card Series will stick with me forever. Looking forward to what he and his wife Kristi get up to next.

“You cannot engage with Newsom in good faith, because what faith can you have in a shell of a person who so baldly pursues wealth, power, the next shiniest thing?” Nice work. His first Chronicle quote in 1991 was bragging about giving wine discounts to his wealthy benefactors. Has anything changed?

I’m inferring from the interview that the gap between Nephew and Wardrobe will be much shorter, Wardrobe will take place in the 70s, and the impetus to send the kids off will probably be smaller like the parents getting divorced.

I just need her to make Susan’s decision to make sense. Even as a child I was like, “She lived a whole life as an adult in Narnia, with battles and suitors, Mr. Lewis. The metaphor of turning from the faith/doesn’t believe Narnia is real anymore doesn’t really work.”

I also got an ad against Christina Bohannan, who (I learned) is running for congress in Iowa. Since I’m in California, it made wonder how much the ads actually cost.

The very first line is a lie, and we all know it. *None* of this was ever designed to help us, which is why it hurts us and we hate it. It really is that simple, but the media simply cannot bring themselves to say it.

Clips show you what the show is, what the performance was. Awards shows are ads for the nominees and clips actually get people to say, “Oh, wow! That looks good! I should check it out.” It’s the dumbest thing they cut.

A friend from high school’s son had major brain surgery and Macklemore visited him and made him feel safe and cool. That always made me unable to drink any haterade, even though I didn’t really care for his music. He’s a good dude.

As a Niner fan, I’m enjoying the W for what it is. One win. It counts. Fun to see McVay pants himself too. Interesting to watch some people actually try to buy/sell this “uh, they meant to do that” cope. I know how that would go over if my team tried it. But then Rams doesn’t rhyme with whiner.
