This has nothing to do with Kevin. It does, however, have everything to do with @antinickname.bsky.social and I would definitely never do what Kevin did, at all, ever. I don't even know what a Wikipedia is or how to recognize one if I saw it in the wild...

A week of prep and cooking. Happy my neighbors enjoyed.

The bit I loved was preparing an after dinner snack for Dr. GirlChild.

Here’s the OG post that started it all:

Why do you need to have your conversation on speakerphone while in public? I am sure your son appreciates you will remotely open the lock because you don't believe your child has the spare key as they called from the carwash on their way home....

The tonic is flat but the glass is mostly filled with gin anyway so maybe the tonic isn't flat as much as absent....

Judgment pending drinking after which, judging by gin volume, judgment will not be sound

"without memory there can be no retribution”

Is My Chainsaw A Heart: 13 Centos by Elizabeth R. McClellan is a praise work to horror; a blood and guts gift to fandom, a new needed creation in the blistering and gripping world of Stephen Graham Jones. Long live final girls.
