People who are only engaging with social movements via social media are not going to be able to grasp the depth of collective discipline and strategy that people are coalescing around across the country. It’s not No Kings peace policing or lib brain rot. It’s almost invisible tactical maneuvering.

I mean you could outsource the work, but if you wanna make sure everything is perfect you really should go it yourself. You do t want any nasty surprises on the big day. 🥃🤣🥂

You still have 3 hours left to support my baby brother and sister in law in their international adoption. Holiday arts & crafts, snacks, jewelry, 3 custom coffee roasts. And a bunch of raffles!

Somebody, probably a relative, fucked with her as a child and never said they were joking. Or she’s making shit up for attention. But I’m leaning towards the 1st option. I have seen so many people have WTF moments as adults over stuff someone was pulling their leg about as a kid.

Nobody in my immediate family ever did, but it was super common among the students when I was in HS. Haven’t heard it in years (and not disappointed)

Aged 16 went to my girlfriend's house for the first time. After dinner with her folks I was desperate to use the bog and was surprised how low it was. Did a shit and realised it wasn't the bog; pushed the shit through the plug hole with my fingers. Never seen a bidet before.

When I finally associated the written word sabotage from the Hardy Boys books with the word as spoken on Hogan’s Heroes, I was mortified. I had been pronouncing it saw-boat-age in my head. I was probably 6-8. So I get it.

It’s perfect for grilled cheese! Of course I was the only one who chose it. My brother’s kids aren’t always the most adventurous. The oldest niece at least tried a bite and said she liked it tho.

I used sharp cheddar, pepper jack and havarti. We also had Swiss and shredded “Mexican” available.

Happy grilled cheese day to those that celebrate
A grilled cheese sandwich alongside a bowl of tomato soup.  (For those interested cheddar, pepper jack and havarti on sourdough. WITH bacon, and no the chef is not entertaining the argument that bacon makes it a melt)

I’ve watched Trump’s unedited speeches for 10 years now, since he started running in 2015. He’s fucking dumb. And there’s all these “distraction theory” and “controlled chaos” arguments and the bottom line is he is a dummy who doesn’t understand anything.

Eat dirt, old man. The Democrats did not talk too much about race, gender, and sexual orientation. It let Republicans talk constantly about it--demonizing and politicizing multiple identities while Democrats cowered.

At the VA for an early morning appointment. An older volunteer with a full on snowy white John Brownesque beard complimented me on mine. I replied that I was happy to hear that from an expert

Just updated my Mac's OS, and one of the first pop-ups I get is about "Apple Intelligence." So PSA for people who don't want this (because who does?): if you have the latest OS, go into settings and turn of Apple Intelligence.

The Feb 14 drop date is no joke, THE GORGE puts the Love in Lovecraft. What begins as a workplace meet-cute at the mouth of madness spirals into a first date, if not from hell, then straight into the bowels of Hell itself! A genre-bending sci-fi action fantasy championing poetry, vinyl & rabbit pie.

Disney, NO! I'm not even saying this as a member of a marginalized group. I'm saying this as a soulless PR mercenary who dies a little inside when I see a company make a terrible marketing decision.
