I have been overly productive this weekend and why did I do that? Too much working and not enough loafing ☹️

It does not matter how much I practice or how many videos I watch for techniques, my baguettes always wind up looking like double-ended dildoes 🤷‍♀️

I am happy there is a bread proofing setting on my oven because my kitchen is nowhere near warm enough for proofing.

Tutivillus Is Watching You

For medieval scribes, mistakes couldn’t be easily shrugged off, as Tutivillus, the stickler demon, was always looking over their shoulders.

A 40 pound cattle dog I know is going up for adoption on the Multnomah County Animal Services website. This is a once in a lifetime dog and anyone who adopts her will be very lucky.

I have been at work for 13 minutes and I've already spilled tea on my off-white pants. Think I'll get bbq for lunch and finish them off.

I hate to tell you that *not powerful* men also get away with abusing vulnerable people all the time.
Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

A co-worker has asked me to check our security cameras because she lost a $6,000 bracelet at work yesterday. She can tell me everywhere she went in the building, but she can't tell me why in the hell she wore a $6k bracelet to work.

(The answer was "sorry, no" btw)
