forgot to mention my dad was in the parking lot, and to keep the truck from floating away due to the balloons after I parked it, he put a dog in the front seat to hold the truck down
had a weird dream. I was trying to find a spot in this crowded old ass parking lot to park a small Toyota truck with a bunch of helium balloons pulling the bed up. then I went into the building where I was trying to find the guy to train me. it was John Candy.

I haven't seen a single bit of Star Wars discourse on here, other than a bunch of folks saying everybody is talking about Star Wars. Y'all should follow less basic people imo.

I look forward to a day when we all support artists directly with as much $ as we pay for streaming services. "but you don't get as much content that way!" well, do you want to consume the world as it exists, or encourage one that is better.

It's holiday week & I have to do my annual "Sweet Potato Pie is Disgusting" rant. Just know, I am glad you love sweet potato pie. I am glad you have that roofless ass plate of mush on your dish & that it makes you happy. EYE think the stuff is gross. A pie should have a ROOF!

apparently this is one of the DVDs at the top of my "need to get again" list that hasn't been gotten again. smdh. criterion should be a govt supported cultural agency and we should all get 12 free dvds a year.
