My manager greeted us this Monday morning with “Capes on, team—let’s fly!” And honestly I’m going to try to hold that energy all week ❤️ Or at least until noon.

The restaurant from which I ordered a mini burrito apparently uses “mini” like the people who use “literally” figuratively.

Hearing some small, sharp noise at regular intervals, I thought perhaps the smoke alarm needed new batteries.

But, no. This is apparently the pitiful, very specific mew my cat has workshopped for when dinner is 16 minutes late.

To other artists: keep building, even when it’s quiet. Keep showing up, even when it feels like no one’s watching. One day you’ll look around and what you’ve planted will bloom wider than you imagined 💐

Needed to check out of current events for a couple of hours and watched The Wedding Banquet. If you need a laugh or happy ending right now, this offers both.

what is it called when people who aren't cops and don't have a warrant drag you away, because I don't think "arrest" is the word

In a major bit of personal growth, I can now tolerate mayo when it’s throughly mixed in with other ingredients. (This was 50 years of progress. I still can’t spread it on a sandwich. I’ll report back in another half century.)

Just heard a noise from the kitchen, so I reflexively yelled at my cat only to realize both of them are actually just chilling with me in the living room, so I’m pretty sure I just told a poltergeist to “stay the $&%# away from the butter you little creep”

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.
