ah yes, personal freedom, that thing that is always present IN THE MILITARY

God bless the $5 and under cheese bin. I got a perfect sized chunk of St. Angel brie and it was SO GOOD!

There's a whole lot of people out there who don't want to do much besides complain. God forbid they actually consider they could be part of the problem.

Thinking about the tech guys getting Saudi Arabia money who think that they're part of the downtrodden because they don't make a million a year.

you just won the game

That's it. I can finally log off and be truly free. Thank you. Thank you so much.

A tortoiseshell cat lays on a child's booster seat on my kitchen floor. She is resting her chin on the armrest and staring right at the camera. She's probably judging how dirty the floor is but I'll never know.

Living in an environment where I felt like I had to constantly prove my worth to people who didn't even care about me damn near killed me and I damn near let it. That's my bad and I'm grateful to have learned from the experience so I can teach my kids to not rely on someone else's validation.

It used to be my weight. It was my sober days. It was the money I did or didn't make. It was being "on time." My joy used to be completely dependent on numbers proving I deserve to exist. The numbers were how I was "doing well."

Nowadays, it's shifting. Joy surrounds me, if I'm willing to see it.

It's liberating not to rely on accomplishments for my happiness. My joy is not something I can measure with a metric. I haven't looked at a scale in weeks (maybe a couple of months), and that's so wild considering how obsessed I was. Even my sobriety time is more of an anniversary than a number.

There are so many friendships I let wither and die because I was completely invested in a relationship that was deeply broken and abusive at its core. I was taught I was too scary and incompetent to be trusted or believed. Doing basic things for people just to have the positive interactions heals.

I'm learning to embrace this after 2 decades of a relationship where I was never asked to do anything but expected to do A LOT and it was often the stuff I didn't feel capable of handling.

I enjoy driving so when someone needs a ride, I often say yes because I could use the gas money and company.

I knew it would he right up your ally lol

The end of kayfabe brought about a strange artistic flourishing—wrestling postmodernism. Josephine Riesman, the author of “Ringmaster,” a biography of Vince, has traced how acknowledging the pretense actually made it more difficult to distinguish truth from fiction. The filmmaker Werner Herzog stumbled upon the W.W.E. around the time of McMahon’s famous groin kick and became captivated. “I had the feeling there was a very raw form of drama emerging,” he told me. “The family saga became such a central part. I think of Vince McMahon showing up in the ring with three blondes with big breasts and taunting his wife, who is in a wheelchair, and apparently blind. And the son accusing his father not of mistreating the mother—but he wanted more money, something like this. It was phenomenal, phenomenal drama.” Artistically, Herzog compared it to early Greek tragedy. He always assumed that, as with theatre, the wife and son were “paid stooges, pretending to be the wife and son.” I told him that these were, in fact, Linda and Shane McMahon. “That makes it even more interesting!” he said. “The marketing of your family for public drama of that vulgarity, it carves into the very texture of family in a way that we have not seen before.”

Achievement unlocked: There's a paragraph in a print New Yorker article that juxtaposes my wrestling theories with those of Werner Herzog 👀

They should let a human on a horse run in the next marathon and break the made-up record again. A human on a motorcycle the year after. A dog on a drone in 3 years.

Goldenboy is still so good and fun

420 blaze it

I should be allowed to sue the mattress protector manufacturer for emotional distress. I put a waterproof mattress protector on to PROTECT MY MATTRESS FROM FLUIDS. SO WHY IS MY MATTRESS SOAKED WITH KID PEE AT 4AM?!?!?!

This is such a quotable little short. I love Marcel.

I can’t do discourse about stuff right now because the reality is ….

Some people think that other people’s rights and safety should only go as far as their feelings

And I do not agree. There is no debate .

Wanting to debate that marks you as unsafe

this is it right here. AI violates Vonnegut's number 1 rule for writers: "Use the time of a total stranger in such a way that he or she will not feel the time was wasted." AI shifts the burden of effort from the writer onto the reader/audience and that is unacceptable

Uh oh. I'm still blessedly ignorant for the moment.

Not again!

Ooooh! I was hoping he would like it!

Nextdoor is another place that's great for buying/selling but you gotta wade through a feed full of bullshit to get to the good stuff. Locality based subreddits are cesspools. I hate that resale markets are all tied to social media feeds.

Craigslist is pretty dead and lacks the integration with Messenger. It's insane how *good* FB is at this stuff. I hate it but it works with strict guardrails.
