Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/10/2026And also because language learning is a good way to keep the brain flexible as you age, so I’m building habits for the second half of my life. 010
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Lovely piece. The more I learn in Duolingo, the more aware I am of what I’m not going to learn in Duolingo. But I’m keeping with it because I won’t be letting perfection be the enemy of the sufficient (or proficient, in this case). 220

Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 07/10/2026An obese bloodhound was lagging behind her person as they walked, trying to pull toward the dryer sand. When her person stopped, though, she pressed against his legs. I imagined she’d a recent rescue, and he’s trying to help her lose weight. It’s hard work for her, though, poor sweetie. 000
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 07/10/2026A few minutes ago there was a husky with a “Happy birthday” bandana. She got a really exciting new toy, but she didn’t understand carrying it and walking at the same time, so it got put away. Then she bounced around her person as they went down the beach. Baby’s first beach day, I think. :) 100
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 07/10/2026We have a 5th floor condo on the beach for the week, and my stepson loaned us binoculars to see out over the ocean. I mostly use them to watch dogs. 100

Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I enjoy the fact that you can see The Love Boat’s Gavin MacLeod and The Love Boat’s Fred Grandy a week apart, in entirely different productions, during a year when The Love Boat is on the air. 020
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Age being used as an excuse for a retrogressive mindset is a pet peeve of mine. If there are others of the same age who know better, then refusal to accept is a choice, not an inevitability. 001
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I’m just having a bunch of à la carte items … oyster fritters and sides of chow chow and fried onions. French pancake for dessert (I’m guessing it’s a dessert crepe or something). 130
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 20/09/2026We acquired our own little agent of chaos, Humphrey Cheesecake (the “Cheesecake” part is because he was outside a cheesecake bakery), back in late April. He just turned six months. At the time he was also VERY hungry, and he still eats more than our other two cats. And then burns ALL the calories. 0151
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 19/09/2026First night of this year’s NC Folk Fest. This is Samir LanGus and his band, playing gnawa music. If that’s new to you, join the club! It’s new to me too! 021
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 16/09/2026This is why, after briefly fostering a Great Pyrenees, we decided in the future to only have dogs we can lift. And even more so, the ability to get them to the vet in an emergency. 050
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Highlights from Greensboro Pride today: opening the main stage with my vocal ensemble; the guy who went up and down Elm St. leading a “Donald Trump has a small penis” chant; and the drag king who lip synched to Freddy Mercury while dressed as Sonic the Hedgehog. 020
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 13/09/2026“I guess I have a cat now.” One of my favorite sentences. I’ve said it a couple times myself, and it’s hard to get tired of hearing it. 1823

Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Including appropriate amounts of the unlisted ingredients. Making it into a sort of slaw-style salad. I’ve always got way too many things I want to cook, but if I find myself with a cauliflower and a bunch of tiny shrimp, I might experiment. 010
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/09/2026So maybe I’m nuts, but I’m actually kind of curious about this one. Not as written, because that’s gross. But the same ingredients in different proportions and preparations might be ok. I’m thinking chopping the cauliflower and leaving it raw. Using more like a quarter of a cup of mayo. 110
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Sounds like it was, but for kind of disappointing reasons. From what I’m picking up, it was popular because it promoted a “screw them over before they screw you over” ethos for business ethics. 020
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I didn’t look much further than that, so I’d be curious to know how a David Harum sundae became that particular combination. 120
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Next time I get ice cream, I’ll ask them to build one (but probably not by name). Funny thing is, I looked at the Project Gutenberg version of the novel, and although the character eats ice cream in it, there’s no mention of toppings that I could see. 120
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/09/2026It’s a beautiful night for baseball! Never mind that your team is down 13 to 1 in the ninth. The weather is still perfect, and you’re with your friends, and hey, at least they made the playoffs, and who can complain about extra baseball? 000
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Learned something today! A sundae that is half fruit cocktail. 110
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I’d like the sardine sandwich because I’ve never seen that before, and the mushroom soup. Followed by a David Harum sundae, also for the novelty. 010
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 05/09/2026That’s not hypocrisy, that’s learning from your experience. 040
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Well, it’s a dilemma. No one’s going to want those Trump alterations to be permanent, but it’s been such an absurd waste of money that no one will want to replicate that superficial, petty nonsense, either. 011
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Not likely. The root of their rage is that they’re used to being centered and think they’re being wronged if they’re not. “Black lives matter? What about MINE?” “Gay pride? What about MY pride?” “Believe women? Believe ME!” 010
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 30/08/2026I won a pasta salad/potato salad/cole slaw cookoff today, and I can’t shake the imposter syndrome about it because the recipe was from a cookbook and four of my votes came from my family. 030
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Thanks for the fact check. Something seemed off but I couldn’t place it. 140

Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 13/08/2026This is my forever pet peeve about recipes too! I’ve never understood chef math. The timeframe I want is the one that tells me when to start if I want it to be done at X time (on Y day). “Active” “cooking” time has no real-life meaning. 000
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Well, I know *I* should use the library more than I do. I’m gonna work on that. 021
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 31/07/2026We need to be able to use the phrase “social construct” when it’s accurate and useful, and that’s why it’s important for it not to be seen as the opposite of “real.” We wouldn’t be able to perceive the bodily components of ADHD without the social construct that give these differences meaning. 030
Lea, Trivia Wench @leapop.bsky.social · 31/07/2026“Real” and “social construct” aren’t opposites; the latter is what we use to understand the former. So the problem with the headline isn’t really the suggestion that ADHD might be a social construct, it’s the use of “just” and the perpetuation of the false dichotomy. 120
