Pride parties happen right outside our house now. Best OH line so far: Next year, I’ll wear my leather shorts. You remember your ID. Ok?

The Philadelphia skill of walking across traffic, timing the walk to pass behind a car, is a special skill. Just saw someone cross chestnut between a car and a bus. Kudos, guy.

Watching the first downhill ski run: omg is this person about to die? Pls don’t die. 15 min later: if they didn’t hit that turn at least 79mph, what’s even the point? Finish 20th?

Just remembering a Texas that had Ann Richards and Lloyd Benson, and at least the idea that Texas voters used to create these governing bodies with strong opposing views.

Goldie is hands down the best falafel ever. But why transliterate half n half as “chetsi chetsi” instead of hatzi-hatzi?

What’s great about “don’t forget to write 5786 on your checks” as a joke is that, in context, it’s a brand new joke. It’s barely existed

The Bible, as a story, refers to heaven all the time. It’s in the first sentence, all kinds of things come out of there. But everything that gets described happens on earth. No seraph ever left behind a heaven, bath, and beyond coupon? Literally 0 heaven artifacts? Just earths eternal attic?

Refrigerated pie crust is surprisingly difficult to shop. No one knows how to categorize it.

Idk who needs to hear this but baseball coaches matter, it’s why they get uniforms, and the Phillies third base coach cost them last nights win. Holding a runner at third before the deep relay throw to get the ball home literally cost his own pitcher a win on a three hit performance.

What’s nice about apple photos is it can pop up a pic from 2021 where you’re wearing the same exact, non-corrective versions of the sneakers you just bought.

Friday dreams of pa state legislation that mandates standards for or creates fraud/ai/fact check filters on social platforms. We do have code for fire alarms in buildings. Why can’t we protect these spaces at the local level too?

Took the trash out, as did my neighbors. Walked the dog. Came back to our can empty, save one coffee cup. What happened?
