A supervisor who couldn’t pronounce my name says the replacement order I was told Friday was made was in fact not put in at all (or was cancelled, she wasn’t sure). But I was assured *this time* it was put in and the price will be adjusted to compensate. Can’t wait for this one to disappear too.

CVS Caremark: "To get 90 days of insulin at once you have to do it through mail order. You can't do it through a local pharmacy. It's cheaper that way." Me: "Okay, send me 90 days of insulin." CVS: *sends 28 days, charges 2x the legal limit*

Don’t forget Rusty’s dad in the army
Bluey in the genocide
We watch the cricket episode, 
All laconic drawls and summer 
Games, a dedicated pup learning 
To play while his father is away.
His name is Rusty, he's a star 
At bat. My son laps it up, as do l 
Until the end; the scene shifts 
And there is the distant dad In combat fatigues, and I learn 
Even in this cartoon world 
There is a desert full of dogs 
Soldiers and guns, and somewhere 
Out of frame, Arabs being put down.

You voted in support of ICE and they killed Minnesotans with your money and support, @angiecraigmn.bsky.social. The only “accountability” you took was to repeat the lies you swallowed and believe. You must resign and disappear into the woods.

RIP to the incomparable Sam Neill
How long has it been since you've seen the original "Jurassic Park"?

SAM NEILL The last time I watched it in its totality was sitting beside Princess Di at Leicester Square at the London opening.
On the other side of me was my son Tim - he was 11 and completely swept away by it, but about the time the T-Rex turns up, Tim started to fart. And the draft was drifting across me to royalty! I spent the whole film in a muck sweat, thinking, "Princess Di is being exposed to the horrors of a little boy's fart, but she's going to think it's me. I am going to be subliminally blamed for my son's crimes, and I don't think she'll talk to me afterwards." But she was well brought up and never mentioned it.
JEFF GOLDBLUM I love that story, Sam.
I've heard him tell that a couple of times, and it's just amazing the lengths that he will go to still blame the boy.

I wanted to write something thoughtful about XBOX's wanton destruction spree of their talent, portfolio, and future - on how XBOX has destroyed so much trust from both of its audiences - from developers and players. But how can I write anything thoughtful about such thoughtless greed?
