Cannibal Sandwich (raw ground beef with raw onion slices open face on white bread) is usually named for Wisconsin, particularly Milwaukee, but in my family? Lemon jello salad with carrot, cheese, & pimento olives or any casserole made with cream of mushroom soup.
I rather like the idea. Winter is when I want to settle in with a book anyway. But that is funny how it changes the publishing schedule.
Same!
This is to a professor? If this isn’t a ploy to play the victim, then this person is unwell & a potential threat to half the campus. (To be clear, racist as hell too, but the obsessiveness is glaring.)
I already ordered it (& an unrelated Onion tshirt.) I can be frugal another day. Right?
I can’t believe I doubted for a second that they would be on top of the merch. 🤩
Looks like existing $99 subscribers get it, but I subscribed on a Black Friday sale but would happily pay separately for that rainbow logo tote.
Quote-posting in part to remember to sign up through a browser at home later (so Apple doesn’t take a cut through the Patreon app) but also because maybe some of you want to sign up too? Or pre-order John’s new book?
Oof! I hope it heals up quickly & your other ribs don’t get any traitorous ideas.
Lisa Simpson, a yellow cartoon girl, holding up a teen magazine named “Non-Threatening Boys.” All the featured boys on the cover are named Corey.
When Lisa has the mumps & Homer brings her teen magazines.
“How many of these guys are named Corey?”
“Eight.”
Overheard some kids in a thrift store today discussing this idea as Depeche Mode was on the loudspeakers, but they passionately insisted they couldn’t listen to it much, but could listen to Radiohead all day. I could listen to both personally.
But my choice:

That’s really an interesting change to the lyrics & the story from The Animals’s version.
Underwear takes up so little space in your luggage, why subject yourself to doing hotel sink laundry every day?
Close up on a cluster of hot pink rhododendron flowers on a shrub. Closed buds and smooth, shiny leaves are also present.
Dark & storming now, but the trees are starting to bloom & the rhododendron is attracting big fuzzy bumble bees. (Didn’t get a picture of the bees, just heard them.)
I’m guessing Stephen Miller wrote his remarks and decided “bodega” was too foreign-sounding. Not that pudding brains there would know that word either.
So… a white, British guy has rebranded a Black hairstyle it seems. Cool. 🤨
I’m so sorry. You gave him the best possible chance and it sucks that sometimes that isn’t enough.
And this is how I learned that a group of vultures is not a flock but has different names based on what they are doing at the time.
As was once said of another Chicagoan, “he’s a righteous dude.”
Finally! I would go to more concerts and such in Milwaukee if winter driving wasn’t a concern 4 months out of the year.
We’d have had this already if Gov Walker hadn’t screwed us all over in 2011, but better late than never.
Oh no! I hope surgery goes smoothly.
Probably? They don’t have a ton of caffeine free options but there are a couple.
Sencha Tea Bar, second block of State St. They list it on the sandwich board out front. I have asked for it when I haven’t wanted to make a decision. (I also usually get different drinks every time I am in there. I don’t have a usual order.)
Local tea shop has a low tech solution to indecision. $5 mystery drink. They ask if you have allergies & do you want hot or cold. Then you get what the barista feels like making. No energy burning ChatGPT or app needed to offload decision making.
Thank you for your delightful writing!
I can’t wait. I’m re-reading Running Close to the Wind, again, right now. I need more of their writing. 💙
Honey Don’t. Could have been good, just didn’t quite come to anything satisfying. Coen films really need both brothers involved to avoid this.
Batman & Robin though is my all time worst film I sat all the way through.
View from above. Top half of the image shows a sable and white corgi, laying on his side on a grey sofa. He is lit by sun streaming in from a nearby window. The bottom half of the image is more in shadow and shows pet stairs leading up and a brown and white tabby cat on the floor looking up towards the dog. The dog seems worried by this.
Menace. 2 of my cats make Charles nervous. This is one of them. #caturday
Yeah, as someone with a corgi who caught a stomach bug from raiding the cat litter, the next couple of days might produce some unpleasant surprises for the humans. Fingers crossed not.
The people who baffle me are the folks who take their non-service dogs to things like protests or other large gatherings to "socialize" them. Thousands of people (and some other freaked out dogs) is not the scenario to socialize. They should stay home away from noisy, crowded events.
