i really like that bars have NA beers and cocktails now but i don’t understand how places think it’s fine to charge like $12 for a club soda with cucumber syrup and some lemon juice. that’s not a NA cocktail - that’s a club soda.

it feels insane that i am going to be 45 years old in a few days - also, my mom sent me a bday card w/ $40 in it & someone rifled through my mailbox, opened the card & stole the cash. 😞
One King
i donated blood this week and while it was a very small thing, it made me feel good - i encourage everyone to find a local blood drive and do it. especially if you’re a universal donor like me

yesterday pancake turned 3 years old - he is an impossibly cute menace who likes feather toys and making biscuits on me at 4am. he is still scared of loud noises and being held like a baby
nothing like reading the company DEF14A filing, seeing the the 10s of millions of incentive cash/RSUs the executive committee received, while ive already racked up hundreds of hours of unpaid overtime so far this year to really hammer home how fucked up this country/world/planet is
sitting here working on a sunday listening to showcase showdown & feeling beyond mad that im so out of the loop that i didn’t know they were playing with drop kick murphys last week so i missed the show.
i made this tofu dish a while back and really enjoyed it if you’re looking to use some more of that sumac. im not big into pickled anything but the sumac onions were so good cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/7595...
why use 4 syllables when 2 will do?
i’m an asap guy
i manage this administrative task that is EXTREMELY easy to do & requires following very basic directions (which i attach to the email every month) yet people on my team still can’t do it correctly. it is WILD
just got another bill and all told they charged my insurance $917 for a 15 minute visit and 3 spritzes of liquid nitrogen…my out of pocket is nearly $600. what the actual fuck
what is wrong with healthcare in america, you ask? well i had a (ost likely) pre-basal cell carcinoma frozen off my arm, the appointment took less than 20 minutes and i was charged $500
yeah there is savings for probably a year so it’s more like being worried about thinking it will just be a break for a couple of months and then like not being able to find a job after that.. that and the health insurance piece
on a scale of 1-10 (1 being not at all and 10 being absolutely) how bad would it be to quit my job without having another one? asking for a friend
also as someone that got a fairy tattooed on me at 17 & paid like a ton of money to remove it in 2023, i want to shake her & say “you will regret this! i speak from experience & mine was in a place that was covered!” hang in there bina - you’re a great mom & no matter the outcome, it’ll be ok
oof that’s significant coverage - teens are so stubborn, so i feel like it’s no win for you. being honest w/ her in a totally neutral way is prolly all you can do and hope for the best. upside is, all black line work should be easy removal if she wants that later.. for 10x the cost of the tattoo lol
how big are we talking here? like the whole back of her hand?
after 8 days out of town, i came home thinking pancake may be pissed but he actually will not leave my side which is very sweet during waking hours but very annoying when he’s laying on my chest from 4am-10am
came across the brett kavanaugh photo on celebritynetworth.com and it’s pretty perfect for that clown
this is such a huge bummer 😞
i’m just seeing this now, but wanted to say.. i’m 44 dude
checking the current MA wastewater data and looks like covid is relatively chill but norovirus is beginning its yearly ascent 😬
i get the the job market is bad, but please do not go searching the internet for the PERSONAL email of the person that interviewed you - keep that to company communication channels. now i have to figure out where this dude got my gmail address…
i know i’m late to this party but this lilly allen record is pretty fun to listen to and the fact it puts this asshole dude on blast in every way is a bonus
like blasting showcase showdown or creepily follow people around
there’s an open house for one of the units in my building and i’m trying to determine how weird i should be
i asked her to please stop it and now she’s all butthurt about it 🙄
i didn’t change my name when i got married (obv) and my sister is constantly trolling me by putting my name on mail or on dinner reservations as maplesyrupdonut <husbands last name> and it’s making me insane
there’s really no better feeling than relaxing in your super clean home after you (in my case, me & my husband) spent like 2 days cleaning the shit out of it
