I should’ve put 🧵 on this but forgot so let’s try this again

In 2017 I decided to make taking a square of TP from Salisbury cathedral a family tradition
Read this out loud to my husband and I could actually hear his eyes roll
there should be a support group for the spouses of the Terminally Online

Under no circumstances was I going to read this and then I caved. I skimmed. I got to the end. I shouted OH MY GOD so loudly the cats have fled to the bedroom

This probably sounded on the snarky side because well that’s what I do best, but in all sincerity I’m at the age now where my kid is not calling as often for things he needs and it’s just how growing up works but I miss it. It was really great M called my dad- I know it means a lot to him
M has run into an engine issue with the tractor that is stumping him so he called my dad for advice and apparently it’s the most excited he’s heard my dad in years lol

Does it ever even occur to these people that unemployed people can't buy their stuff??

Girl then why is it so hard to build affordable housing in your community?

Fun fact! All the crosswalks in Honesdale are painted to look like railroad tracks

It’s also the original home of Highlights magazine and the guy who wrote the lyrics to Winter Wonderland
Fable is the bonus #TransitCat of the day! Honesdale, Pennsylvania, is the location of the first commercial steam rail locomotive run in the United States, on August 8, 1829. www.waynehistorypa.com/research/his...
This is Fable- she guards the little bookstore in Honesdale and she is prepared to lay you out if there are any shenanigans

I tried the focus friend app while I was finishing Big Monthly Deck and I’m extremely annoyed to report it works for me

That domino meme but it starts with my grade school bestie going to college in Boston and ends with my husband mountain biking with a former teammate of a current friend and now that guy knows we have custom tshirts and hoodies that say Work Bitches

I’m going to write her into my will just so I can write her out of it again
I think the worst thing my one sister has ever done is point out that one of our family members has extremely strong Uncle Colm from Derry Girls vibes because now I can’t interact with that person without thinking omg it’s the shoelaces all over again

I’m not saying I bought this only because of the unexpected Tom Morello blurb but it was definitely a factor

The reason why most women my age couldn't care less if Bill Clinton goes down with the ship is that we were teens & young women when the Anita Hill and Monica Lewinsky scandals happened. It's rotten to the core. All the way down. Your "lost" era is not ours.
Seriously, what is wrong with these people?

Made a p*rn star with this last night because I thought that would be the funniest possible drink to make with glitter and the problem is you don’t need the amount of syrup it would take to get a truly glittery drink

I think we all know what this means- time to order a big thing of food glitter
My aunt has me out shopping as per usual and dammit also as per usual I have found ridiculous things that I totally need. She’s a terrible influence

You do not have to hand it to MTG have you lost your mind she’s useful as a weathervane and that’s it

This is how my aunt leaves the sheets after a visit. Meanwhile my sheets are not even folded this nicely when they are clean

My aunt and I decorated one of my trees this weekend and she’s decided the Mari Lwyd ornament is terrifying so every time I turn my back she takes it off the tree

It is very funny that this Pope is just going to get jerseys from now on. Everyone decided that's what this Pope likes and that is it. It's like if your grandmother got you a puzzle for Christmas one year and you said you liked it so your entire extended family is like "oh that's the puzzle kid"
Spike Lee just blessed Pope Leo with a custom Knicks jersey during his visit to the Vatican, just one week after the Pope was gifted a custom Chicago Bulls one.

My absolute favorite cold weather thing is to have family or friends visit and we just kind of hang out all cozy and I make soups and stews - making four this weekend and it’s just the best

A couple of houses in the neighborhood are on the market or have recently sold and I wish I had a way to adequately convey with words the level of disgust and dismay my aunt has for the fact that I have no idea how much any of them are listed for

Notwithstanding other completely valid criticisms of the Catholic Church, I really need people to understand that the Catholic league is just literally Bill Donahue. It’s just one pathetic old man.
