You think anyone who has filmed a Day In The Life actually set up the camera before bed, and let it run to catch them waking up the next morning? Or do we think it’s always a get up > set up > get back into bed > mime wake up scenario? There’s gotta be like one person who did it the long way, right?

Legit question: Does McDonald’s own Connecticut? Why is the only food advertised on any freeway sign McDonald’s? Some specific rest stop exits also say Subway, but what the hell?

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

Friend has on an episode of MacGuyver as I come in, and MacG is hanging with a black mom and son.

And just as I’m about to open my mouth and ask “Is MacGuyver… black? in this one?” I realize I was thinking of Quantum Leap…

*Someone* out there has to have found a piece of the Agro Crag at a garage sale or a thrift store, right? It has to have happened at least once by now. If not recently.

That’s my thrifting holy grail, I think.

Just occurred to me if the 12 Days gifts are cumulative (I.e. on day three you receive three hens, two doves, and a partridge, in addition to the partridges on day one and two, and the doves on day two), you’d have enough to eat a bird a day for the entire year. 364 birds (minus Christmas Day).

Do I have any history nerds who know about historic Christmas ghost story traditions? I’m looking for works that predate Dickens’ reboot of the tradition, stuff people read to their families around the fire as entertainment during the holidays. I’ll ask my librarians too, but Google sucks now so…

Is molasses the Canadian Vegemite?

I never meet anyone who eats straight molasses, or uses it as a condiment, unless they’re Canadian or family from Canada. Maybe some northern states that touch Canada?

People look at me like 🙅🏻‍♀️😬☹️ when I say I love molasses on toast, which Mémé brought me up on.

Did you know the President pays for the personal daily food in the White House? It’s not covered by budget. The President pays for it out of their own pocket. Only state dinners or similar events benefitting the political office are covered by taxes. Just some interesting facts I thought I’d share.

Emailed Southwest to suggest they carry some gluten-free snacks, and they wrote back and declined to do so. They suggested I carry my own snacks, though, which is definitely something that never occurred to me, a person with a food allergy.

At a certain point in an intimate relationship, you gotta ask them “If you had to kill me, how would you do it?”

You have GOT to know how crazy your friends and partners are. You gotta know if you’re the crazier one. You gotta know how to foil their plan they definitely thought of before you asked.

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

“0% woke shit”

a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

Not to be dramatic, but there is a deep melancholy to this loss in ways that I think I need poetry to convey
Aw, man.

Have to admit, I haven't looked at one of these for years. But when I was ter lad I read it a *lot*. (Also got up super-early on Sunday mornings for the "Farmer's Report" on Channel 56. I was a little odd).

In light of climate change, I petition to add dressing up in costumes to some summer holiday so we can be slutty without freezing.

No moving Halloween. We’re keeping that.

Just add costumes to something else.

WOW okay unfollowing her now. Was a massive fan of her work and respected her as a shrewd business woman but had no idea she was stealing young mermaid's voices and putting them in seashells.

I'm getting old enough I either have aged out, or am starting to age out, of most of the discounted theater ticket programs. So obviously I'm biased. But I think they should also have discounted programs for single theatergoers and self-employed theatergoers.

I already respected ASMR creators as pros/sometimes even artists, but let me tell you that level of respect skyrocketed when I realized/confirmed that they shoot the whole video and then go back and frickin’ Foley their sounds back over the top of them. For these hours-long sessions. Just wild.

We need a Ring(tm)-dong-ditch, for the children.

You can’t make people get up off their couch to answer the door only to have there be no one there anymore. The children have no pastimes.

What’s the equivalent harmless thing you can do to someone’s camera doorbell that makes them Do Something?

In 1800 Elma Sands’ body was found dumped in a well in New York City. When they found her discarded corpse, the first thing they did was perform a pregnancy test. This was standard practice when finding a woman’s body, because it was highly likely a suicide or murder was due to an unwanted pregnancy
