It’s really crazy when you have to consider “martial law” possibly affecting one’s weekend plans. #minneapolis

When I get hauled in because the federatzis need to make their quota, remember me from when I was pretty.

Minnesotans are really good at food drives because we all know the importance of emotional eating, now more than ever.

Going on my fifth month in a bowling league, I can without a doubt state that playing rugby got me laid more often than bowling. #thisis50

I have never seen this many Minnesotans drop the F bomb. We are not a people with potty mouths. We have been brought to this place, unwillingly.

It’s more savory cake than cornbread but it’s exactly what the world needs right now. #dollyparton #cornbread #eatyourfeelings

We aren’t doing dry January but husbear just told me we should try flying coach this year so I guess we are all giving something up.

Here’s a moment from every day of my 2025. Lots of trips, pics of the dog and selfies. Happy New Year!

No one asked, but New Years Day Brunch is so much better than staying up late for New Years Eve. Nothing good ever happens on NYE. Day drinking, everything good happens when day drinking.

My new favorite thing is calling my cousin’s big pickup trucks “super cute”. Having the family Gay say “this truck really brings out the color of your eyes. Well done, it’s super cute.” Is so much more emasculating than the old “compensating” jokes I used to pull.

I love bowling alleys. They literally have been playing the same 12 songs since I was 16.

I know there is nothing more insufferable than someone returning from Europe with a “better way to do things” but the Irish are on to something with Toasties. No butter, just toast the bread with cheese inside. No messy fingers. I’m a changed man.

I don’t trust people who think Crumbl makes cookies. Super sweet, under cooked, fatty sugar bombs. Gross.

Just remember that Cyber Monday originated as a shopping holiday to celebrate that fact that your work had faster internet than you did at home. I don’t know that that is true anymore.

The past week was the most sober I have been over a long Thanksgiving break since I don’t know when. I knew exactly what day it was every day. It takes a lot to care for this dog.

I’m a service top. Of course I snowblow my neighbors sidewalks.

Oooh I can join in with the butch stuff too!

These Mormon Housewives have got to stop talk to each other about their relationships. I can’t believe the husbands are making sense.

Today I am thankful for this guy who just took his first deuce since Monday when he had surgery. And he did it outside! Everything’s coming up Millhouse.

It snowed last night and I’m not the first one on the block to shovel. My dog had knee surgery on Monday and two days in, I’m emotionally spent. I wish dogs could talk and understand English. My normal sense of pride in property maintenance is gone.
