Follow-up! The recipient asked me if they were not spicy enough already and I'm falling over myself laughing.

I cannot emphasize this enough: try to be the joy you want to see in the world. If you have the means, surprise your friends. Give spontaneous gifts to acquaintances. Be kind & random.

People are not alone in suffering through the withholding of SNAP benefits. If you can donate a tin of dog or cat food, or a bag of bird seed, I promise you - there is somebody who is going hungry right now, and who will use it to ensure their companion does not.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Walmart promises everyday low prices, not everyday low standards. If an associate wore this shirt on the floor, they’d get fired. So why is selling it online acceptable?

Call and demand the policy in writing, then move your money elsewhere. No fixes, no purchases.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

Both flags have been refreshed, as they each got pretty natty over the summer (I really need to trim back the landscape bushes beneath), and the pole is back at full mast.

No jokes about extending poles, full mast, etc. please. I already ran through them all in my mind while writing this.

I tried the "give away potatoes for Halloween" thing.

I had nearly a 50% rate of people who partook.

Utterly unexplainable! I am absolutely doing it again next year.

Well, this sums it up when he all but openly admits, "I am so insecure and so unable to control my own actions that I make myself the victim here, and the women wearing 'provacative' attire are the guilty aggressors of my worldview."

And a happy Black Cat Day to my own parlor panther, Ulysses. He is an alumni of the cat rescue I have volunteered with for 15 years (same one housing Midnight, posted earlier this evening). He vexes me a great deal sometimes, but I still wake up every morning with him curled behind my knees. 🐈‍⬛ ❤️

Happy Black Cat Day to shelter kitty Midnight, who shares his opinions (loudly and repeatedly) with me last night. Maybe if I had listened I could have avoided a trip to the Emergency Room? 😜

Black and Brown people. PLEASE, PLEASE for the love of us all do not allow yourself to be interviewed if SNAP benefits don't come on November 1. Make the white folks do the interviews. They love getting Black folks to do these interviews so that people think we are the only ones hurt.
