They should still remain. We’ve still got Kris Bryant up here in Chicago and it’s been years since he was traded.

Actually, looks like it was a real one! At least for a little bit. Some dumbass trying to amass clicks, likely. Yahoo! Has since removed it and the headline now refers to her as “Olympic Legend”

Susan Sarandon was supposed to be an older Sabrina Carpenter while also talking about a younger version of herself, I think??? #Coachella #CoachellaLive #RockyHorrorPictureShow #SarandonSky #SabrinaCarpenter #Sabrinawood

My lil’ buddy Petunia and I are still working on our trust issues. I’ve been a 🦎 owner for approx. 5 weeks. I don’t want to hurt her by accident and she’s still a little skittish when my hands get too close to her. I’ve been using a 🪥 as a back scratcher and she really seems to love that! 🥰

I’m not lying when I say that Panama Francis & the Savoy Sultans put on one of the best recordings of “In The Mood” that I’ve heard in my admittedly shallow knowledge of jazz recordings… oh! and listen to Missy Vaughn-Dean & The Love Supreme’s debut (YT, 🍏 , Spotify) when the mood strikes 🎶🎤🎵⚡️💕🎸🎶

My only other positive takeaway from this game (apart from Caleb’s footwork) is that I started both the Vikes defense and Rome Odunze and won my week on that final 🗑️ play.

Hey @redditapplemusic.bsky.social are y’all able to listen to the absolute BANGER of a song known as “I’m the Only One” by Melissa Etheridge?! Because I was grooving on it for a few days straight last week and now it just stays stuck when I try and play it 🙂‍↕️😩😤

In case you decide to move beyond Alt Rock, for whatever conceivable reason, just know that there’s a great big world of music out there. I found this cool Crosby and Nash (sans Stills) album tab at features Jerry, Phil, and Billy 💀⚡️🌹🎸… $5 well spent. Good luck with that jaw thing!
