This is my husband’s favorite and I always told him it was because it’s really a Halloween movie
#1-Haunting
"A Christmas Carol" is literally a ghost story and this version captures that.
Frank Finlay's Marley is grotesque and tortured.
Sets up the theme of regret of the wasted life.
A deeply pained performance.
Also, the lighting throughout is full of affective shadows.

People who do last-minute Santa meet-and-greets are brave, I know I'd be hearing some new information about what people want.

Oh man, I have been here.
The adoption group I used to adopt my kittens keeps sending me photos of other cats that need to be adopted in case I know anyone else who wants one and I feel this mom cat deep in my soul

On PSL day, remembering this real one.
Starbucks Chile Mocha (2016-2017): To add a spicier complement to their annual PSL, Starbucks gave us this drink: espresso w/ milk, cocoa and cinnamon powder, topped with a whipped cream and a sprinkle of Chile Mocha topping (ancho and cayenne pepper, paprika, sugar & a touch of sea salt)

My little guy starts kindergarten next week, so of course it’s time for Ramona the Pest. Best books ever.
the 8yo was apparently upset by the dad losing his job in the ramona quimby book he and my wife were reading last night

This thread is something! Maybe not lunchtime reading though?
RAW MILK TIME
I was surprised to find most of the "raw milk cures ___" talking points from the last 20+ years come from one (1) raw milk dairy farmer in California.
Let's get to know him!

Should I work on this budget report today or should I wait until the agency slashes our budget or should I wait until the agency is eliminated or should I wait until I am just totally unemployed…?

Every day trying to stay on budget with agency budget cuts, higher indirect rates, billing pressures, stuff broken in the forecasting system... just keep cutting the work, it doesn't matter

I knitted these during lockdown Zoom meetings. One colour was when men were speaking, the other was when women were speaking. Guess which was which. 🤔

Over the last 4 years I’ve read over 200 books, almost all from the library (and almost all ebooks). We also listen to audiobooks from the library in the car to and from school. I love the library!
Also: If you don't have money to buy my (or anyone's) books, and you live in the anglosphere, before you pirate them, try to get them from your local library instead. They have it or can get it, they pay for the books, and in many places writers get paid for their books being lent. Everyone wins!

“Yet as I’ve tried to summon that sanguine self over the past two weeks, she has stubbornly refused to show up. I have a sense that many other people are feeling similarly abandoned by their more resilient selves, instead finding a new, excruciating sense of vulnerability.”
