Beaufort NC vs Beaufort SC will always bedevil me

(The song is fine. Extremely inoffensive, but kind of a nice 90s throwback vibe to it.)

I think it says less about people having bias against country and more about the complete breakdown of the monoculture

I’m not a huge country fan, but there’s plenty of country songs I like, including pop country, but I literally never heard of it until I read about it breaking records.

God, grant me the courage to change the things I can and incredible new powers to change the things I can't.

Either of them naturally pin my anxiety meter in the red, so the two together may be catastrophic. I watched The Rehearsal like it was a horror film.

I once spent a good 2 to 3 minutes trying to figure out how to spell “what” because I forgot there was an H in it

The problem with people is, there's a god shaped hole in our heads where we want Something Important to live, and we insist on filling it with *something*, which might be god or king or astrology or jumped-up autocorrect.

Shockingly good, honestly. The blend of cape-y bs (complementary) and small town mystery should not work as well as it does

Yeah, I think this is reasonable if you are both in a community of mutuals, as it’s a question the third party might very well ask even without your involvement.

You'll pry my frappe from my cold dead hands. We were once on a road trip in upstate NY and my brother's friend tried to order a frappe and you would have thought he said a slur by the way the person at the counter looked at him.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I used to work in a veterinary ER, and I often shared this quote with folks who were grieving. It’s from “The Outermost House” by Henry Beston. I wish you peace and strength.
We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth.

This is really well written, and I appreciate the way you explicate the ways in which some traditional recovery things didn’t work for you specifically. This is a very timely read for me for personal reasons, and I’m glad I came across it.

Oh for sure. I got the sense that this was a very new approach to hospital nutrition. Glad to hear the curry-based mukbang helped!

Even the original singer lowers the key when she performs it live, but Kelly wasn’t having that. The first 5-6 seasons of Idol were quite good and really did seem to be interested in finding unique talents that wouldn’t otherwise catch a break

Oh, I know! But I have to say, my wife was in the hospital for several days a while ago, and the food was greatly improved from when I was there a few years ago. They had a little menu that you ordered from every morning and it was pretty decent, for what it was. Times may be changing?

Everything about being in the hospital sucks so bad, even without the whole “needing intensive medical care” part of it. I know it seems like a frivolous complaint, but the aesthetics are just so grimly practical.
