I think not everything needs to be useful to be beloved or matter. Mayhaps we've been tricked to think that value is only in what something or someone can do. Love, when equated to value, is merely then a price for service, and that sounds not like love to I.

But I'm not paid to think, aye.

Christmas candy should be 50% off this weekend. Can we call it a recession yet?

Oh, look, President REDACTED is calling me scum. Again.

One Christmas present done. I do not like amigurumi.

Same.
Would really love if your next president could be someone I don't have to monitor 24/7.

This is the most interesting smelling box they've ever seen. Even though it's just full of rocks.

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.

Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.

Now, it’s gone.

I'm pretty sure this is actually impossible.

Scummy.
So… he’s giving them their own money?

Where’s the tariff money?

Rain tomorrow will be much appreciated. The inversion is killing me. (Snow would be better.)

I have hated the charger for my Acer laptop since I bought the thing. The charger pin is so thin and breaks if the laptop moves while plugged in. I've easily spent $100 on chargers in the last year.

I found out today that it can ALSO charge through USB-c. 🤦‍♀️

Hopefully the charger saga is over now.

Groceries + Christmas cost an unreasonable amount today. The kids are gonna have to survive on sub-prime snacks for a while.

I am so glad that so many of my childhood heroes (well, the actors who played them) have the temerity to remain so.
Just when I thought I couldn't admire the man more...

I highly recommend old fashioned metal tinsel. I've used the same set from Lee Valley every Christmas for at least a decade.

Data analysis homework or crochet on an unexpected day home from work? A tough decision.

And no, I cannot do "both".
