Thought of you when I saw this! How about *all* the soups?

Look what I found today; this is it exactly!

The more we care about a task, the higher our Walls can become. And when we care deeply, especially about the outcome, perfectionism can stop us cold as we lose sight of the fact that done is better than perfect.

My husband just walked in the door sad.

Dad is sad.
Very, very sad.
He had a bad day.

Any Charles Addams fanciers out there? It looks like Google AI is not a fan. 🤨

Google AI responds to search: face in pneumatic mail slot new yorker charles addams
• Al Overview
A specific famous cartoon matching a "face in a pneumatic mail slot" by The New Yorker artist Charles Addams is not formally documented under that exact description in major archives, though it strongly evokes his signature macabre style involving walls, doors, and hidden, eerie watchers.

This is all I’ve got today. Love to all. Hope wears thin.

In a time of hate
Love is an act of resistance
In a time of fear
Faith is an act of resistance In a time of misinformation
Education is an act of resistance In a time of poor leadership
Community is an act of resistance
In a time like this
Joy is an act of resistance
Resist. Resist. Resist.
