Like, I'm enjoying the new one, rather than hate-watching.

Other than Jo's annoying Ken-doll hair, I am enjoying this version of Forsytes much more than the 2002 version, with all love to Damian Lewis. I feel like the writing/characterization is just tighter.

Yeah, we have a frost advisory tonight and it was a high of 90 two days ago. 😖

Also bawling at an Insta video of a guy imagining what his 12yo self would think of him now that he didn't grow up to be an astronaut or a rock star and it's so wholesome, and I realized 12yo me would think it kicks ass I can hand sew historical dresses out of real silk and then go play dressup.

Disappointed I didn't get everything made that I planned for my Jane Austen weekend, but the people there won't know what I didn't finish, they'll only see what I did.

It looks like they're having another one on September 1st? We'll probably aim for that.

Ooh, thanks for reminding me. I was thinking about trying to take my mom to Hello Kitty night this year.

Oh! Jurassic Park was another one.

We've been trying to work through some of this media with our 15yo. The Simpsons was a big one, but that's personally for our house especially. Off the top my head, the Matrix had a lot of bits that are ingrained in pop culture now.

My 15yo is far better than me at aiming in video games, but somehow still can't manage to hit the sink or toilet. 🤔

Success! One guy had been there since 3am! We only had to wait an hour for the store to open and an hour in line while they only let 3 customers in at a time. Worth it.

Oh no, overnight? My 15yo and I were planning on swinging by our local store about an hour early to try and nab the KGLW single. 😱

😍 No way! I was looking at being there that week for an embroidery class! (Not confirmed yet.)

Will no one rid me of this meddlesome VP?

So, J.D., you agree that your religious beliefs should stay out of US politics?

The “Calvin’s dad explains two types” meme, inspired by a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. Clockwise from top left: 1) Calvin’s dad walks into frame to find Calvin trying to operate a record player. The dad says: “There are only two industries left in America: gambling, and fraud.” 2) The dad shows where the record goes, and how to turn on the player, while Calvin watches. Dad says “Derivatives? Gambling. AI? Fraud. Video games? Gambling. Social media? Fraud.” Calvin says “yeah”. 3) With one hand open palm up, Calvin’s dad cheerfully explains to Calvin out of frame below him, “The stock market looks like gambling, but it’s actually fraud.” 4) In bed in a dark room, Calvin clutches at his pillow, eyes wide in existential terror. There is no text in the panel.

Just sitting here hand-sewing an 18th-century dress while watching Artemis splashdown.

A thread of cats very interested in the Artemis capsule.

One of my biggest pet peeves of Fallout. I'm a seamstress. You can bet my clothes would not be dirty and torn.

We watched Happy Gilmore on a sub day in AP Calculus.

Huh.

all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

The part about mental decline by 2020 is particularly dark, given this was written before he was elected the first time.

BREAKING: Following the American threat of an “Avignon Papacy,” Robert Kennedy has begun a Diet of Worms

Is this even a question? Pierre is my sweet cinnamon roll.

Wet the drys, dry the wets...

The problem is, that's assuming you have the Democrats' votes too.

Reading the last one felt like when I read German. I'm barely proficient. 😅

He's gone.
