My daughter was just relatively calm around a bee and it’s never been more clear to me that this generation has not seen My Girl.

A lot of my peers feel this way and I am genuinely in awe that there are people who even *can* spend all their time productively. Like I promise you if when the kid goes to bed I spend three hours painting a Paradox map the next best use of my time is “stare at a wall in utter mental exhaustion.”

Daughter is inexplicably angry that “dirndl” and “lederhosen” don’t rhyme. She’s rejecting Munich entirely as a possible vacation destination over this.

Have started using my east Texas accent around my daughter so she can know the ways of our people and now she’s doing it and sounds exactly like Bobby Hill.

A couple of weeks ago I rode to Newburyport MA and saw this COVID memorial and realized this is the only one I have ever seen anywhere. And the fact that I nearly broke down seeing it is something I still think about.
For those who died and those who survived and all we list during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Leftists for economic illiteracy continues to suck ass because leftism/progressivism is THE movement that needs a robust understanding of economics. You’re attempting to redistribute resources for a more egalitarian society, the more *efficient* your policy is the better it is.

People make fun of Graceland for being first world dad rock, but stealing things from Africa and having unrequited feelings for Carie fisher is pretty universal to the human condition.

My families three reviews for the live action Moana are in: 1. An interminable and pointless retread. 2. So boring i pretended I had to go to the bathroom a lot so could play chess on my phone in the hall. Lost elo. 3. Greatest movie ever but the ending was too scary.

the Republican party is a terrorist organization with a large support base, and must be dealt with like other such groups: through a long and painful peace process that incorporates them back into the political system while hypocritically disclaiming their extreme elements + largely escaping justice

The two most insufferable set of football fans in the world pair off today, but I’m more fluent in English so their insufferableness bothers me slightly more. Vamos, vamos Argentina.

I’m a big alanis morisette defender: 1. Many of her examples are, in fact, situational irony (ie, a comic or dark subversion of expectations). 2. For the rest, the narrator thinking she’s listing examples of irony when the audience knows she is not is, in fact, dramatic irony.
