My dad just died today. He was 100 years old, served in WW2, had 7 kids, worked on the moon landing as an engineer, then in nuclear power, including the Three Mile Island construction and cleanup. He finally died from complications due to a UTI infection, but only after living a very full life.

So, in one year, hairstyles go from this to this. That just feels kind of fast for this much change. I mean, yes, they are rocking both looks, but from a fashion timing perspective I have questions

For something fun we decided to buy tickets to the Secret Cinema tonight. We don't know what the movie is, but it will be released soon. We don't even know the genre, so here's hoping it doesn't suck!

Should we not be more seriously concerned that this "ballroom" project is actually Trump building a bunker where he can hide behind his armed guards in 2028 and refuse to leave office?? He has learned from the past even if nobody else has

Not to brag, but Spiderman in 4D totally slapped. Also, you have to admire how the show utilized its extras. They got to ACT. Dozens, maybe hundreds, of NY actors cast as extras, acting their hearts out and stealing their scenes

As a Gen X mom, trying to teach a 24 YO Gen Z daughter how to roller skate, I realized that I learned how the hard way, trying to keep up with older siblings who were no help. Also, I never had knee or elbow pads or wrist braces.

Thought experiment: What if we made corporations (rather than private citizens) rely on the kindness of charities rather than government bailouts? Would they still be "too big to fail"?

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

Staying at La Quinta which has an 11AM checkout, but breakfast ends at 9:30, which is idiotic. What exactly do they think we are going to do during that 90 minutes? Oh yeah, check out before 11, which means their check out is not really 11. Make it make sense. Losers.

My critique of The Odyssey is that the modern themes flatten Homer's complex story: - War is bad? - Circe is fighting the patriarchy? - Monsters are real, but Greek gods are puffs of wind or trauma hallucinations? - Dogs are morality barometers? - Calypso is Esther Perel? But it was still great.

An AI summary of a customer conversation. I feel like this is every conversation between American strangers today.
Customer called in, asked business related questions, then pivoted to a comparison of US healthcare and elder care with that in other countries, complaints about military spending, and dissatisfaction with US healthcare. The agent listened empathetically.
