lots of weird takes on here today so my contributions are:

-women should be able to WFH during periods
-sheets should be washed weekly
-life coaching and self-help can be useful but systemic discrimination can still be greater than individual effort
-medium roast coffee > dark
Boris Karloff Also Mad About Incorrect Accent in “Mexican.”
If I saw that Hercule Poirot or Benoit Blanc or one of these dudes was a guest at a dinner party I was at, I would immediately excuse myself to use the bathroom and get tf outta that cursed house
No. Not unless you’re a software dev trying to make conversation with someone about how it sucks and y’all are moving on.
Worrye not about 'being productive,' for thou art not a product. Thou art a star daunsinge yn a hopeful skye. A signal blinking across centuryes and worldes. Thou art a song performid just once and perfectlye.
Things I wish #TVWriters would normalize:
1) washing hands during a scene set in a bathroom
2) men answering the phone with “hello” instead of “YAAA”
3)NOT TAKING A SPEAKER PHONE CALL IN PUBLIC SPACES
4) Using headphones during calls in
What do y’all wish you could see?
I do not want to create an account or open a subscription I just want to buy a thing and never hear from you again why is this so hard.
I'm sad and want everybody else to be sad too

S&)t! The new children’s librarian in my hometown in the 80s started a little Saturday AM movie club. First movie I saw there was Bambi. We went back the next week and saw Old Yeller. The third movie was Song of the South.
My mom stopped letting us go and wrote a stern letter to the library board.
This is–and I can not stress this enough–the stupidest shit.

HEY LADY! YOU CALL HIM DR JESUS!
Every elder I’ve ever compelled to read The Moonstone has loved Gabriel, Ezra, and Dr. Candy. Or has wanted to punch Godfrey in the face.
We need a new one, but I’m still very fond of Young Mr. Pitt with Robert Donat, viewable on YouTube!
I vote for Cranford, the complete Sherlock Holmes, The Moonstone, and any Perry Mason or Helen MacInnes novels you can get your hands on. Oh, also Josephine Tey’s The Daughter of Time. And if she likes a bit of fantasy, any of the Connie Willis novels are good fun.
Begging the algorithm to stop showing me posts from folks I don’t follow saying their dog died.
I’m so resentful of some douchebag finance bro yapping about a “vibecession”. I have cut back on everything, including groceries. Eating peanut butter sandwiches for dinner is not a vibe, you jackwagon.
Cheese should be a vegetable. I should be able to grow cheeses in my garden.
Short trees with hanging camemberts and scamorzas, growing big wheels of parmiggiano and gruyere like pumpkins, mozzarellas like brussel sprouts, little bushes of babybells.
Aw, thank you!!!
If only we could operationalize this knowledge for cash, pal, we’d be sitting pretty!
Hey now! Not only is that vintage merch, it’s likely from the Buddy owned location!
BUT IT RHYMES! I’ll see you at the jellybean mezzanine. 🤪
Saying hey buddy to all the cats who watched the splashdown.
I know everyone involved with this Artemis II mission is so much more brilliant than I am, but if I were the Integrity crew forced to bob around in the water this long just waiting around for excessive checks, I'd have snapped by now. Don't care if my legs don't work; point me at a raft, I'll swim.

The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.
The white flag, aka the official flag of the Confederacy
Wishing you and yours a very merry Confederate Surrender Day.

For a "Christian" nation, Americans spend an awful lot of Christian holidays at work.
