Matthew, I don't understand what I've done to deserve this.

The four official seasons!

I guess we have to do this every 100 years or so because rich people refuse to understand that regulation also protects THEM. If you leave people no choices, they will make their own, and nobody’s going to love the world that creates. Which we know, because WE’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE 🙄

"The Pope is weak on crime."

Okay, Grandpa, let's get you back to the perilous, unguarded drop off the side of a mountain.

Not the Tyranids, surely!

Never mind, the brooder plate I bought is huge and takes up half the bin I planned to use for the first week, so now we're off to find some very large moving boxes to cobble together

so there is chaos LOL

It's not chaos! I did the math--and not chicken math either, real math! LOL

I pick them up from the hatchery on Tax Day. 😂

I recently had to replace my clothes dryer, and I did so with a pared down, more basic model. And I have never loved anything more in my life.

I just found something green and slimy and terrifying in my bed and promptly flipped my shit.

It was a sliver of green olive from the muffaletta I had for dinner. My cat stole it, then secreted it away. IN MY BED.

Visit Shepherd's Shop! I've opened a shop. Come take a look!

Right, well, we've got extra bills to pay thanks to probably a ground squirrel chewing through a wire, and meanwhile I'm behind because I have to move my work bench up here to the living room where there's electricity. I have put prototypes and practice pieces up for sale to support this nonsense.

there is no politician so irreplaceable that we must overlook sexual misconduct because nobody else could possibly fill their shoes

"yes" is meaningless if "no" isn't consequence-free. there is no true consent if your job (your HEALTH INSURANCE, SOMETIMES) could be at risk if someone doesn't like that you said no. and we ALL have learned how fast a guy can flip around on you if he doesn't like hearing no.

If in 2026, you are STILL saying 'why didn't X survivor/victim of sexual assault go to the cops or prosecutors?' then you cannot be trusted to drive a car or live by yourself because you are ignorant.

Very funny, Kay, that's obviously a set of twins.

I first read this as "I'm sure your grandpa had a great butt," and I was like, OKAY ALYSSA WHO CAN'T BE TRUSTED LOL

LOL, imagine trying to pitch this to my dad in 1994.

I'm too busy being concerned and, frankly, a little grossed out. None of the white people I know live like this. Even the most clueless dudes are like, "Yeah, I got this shit from Bath & Body Works that smells like Breaking Ocean Waves, whatever the hell that means."

I was being recruited, but still didn't visit any of the schools. We didn't have the money for that travel.

One of my kids knew where he wanted to go, the other toured a couple of schools before deciding.

Buy my wife's book because I have no electricity in my office in the barn until we pay $5-8k to run 650 feet of electric line.

It's really a crap shoot. People have done grudge worthy things to me, and I've gotten over it. And some people who did far less, I will fight in the street.

I think it depends on how much malice motivated it all.

And sadly, the few paltry things I've seen most publishers' in-house marketing folks do recently? ABSOLUTELY INEFFECTIVE AND NONSENSICAL.

I had to call to arrange summer storage for my college student. I asked for a certain facility, and the rep was like, "You know that's not our closest one to campus, right?"

Yes, ma'am. But it is right next door to Chef T's, and any excuse to get some catfish is gonna happen.

Man, I feel this super hard. *hugs*

I still have not arisen from my tomb this morning, but the other day when @mostlybree.kitrocha.com and I were at CVS, I saw a guy wearing a magnificent hat, so I told him so. He was very happy to hear it.

We'll only be getting, like...60 eggs per week. 😂😭

I've been having a lot of fun with Retro Rewind. But I NEED for them to implement something: a baseball bat that I can break out when I forgive someone's late fees, and they come back with something like, "Good, I didn't want to fight you."

REALLY? BECAUSE LET'S GO.
