Bought the Muppet version of Clue today. Husband has never played the original, and I’m a little jealous that this is how he gets to experience the game for the first time.

So psyched that a mockingbird is visiting my Bird Buddy. Googling now what they eat so I can encourage it to stick around.

French Senator Claude Malhuret:

"Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

Watching that Zelenskyy meeting has left me *incandescently* angry. The petulant bullying. The way it seemed staged specifically to humiliate. Fucking shameful.

Zelensky is a hero and far more popular than either Trump or Vance. This is an embarrassing scandal for the White House that GOP members of congress should be forced to answer for as well.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Husband keeps trying to get me to agree to travel plans for this summer and I'm just like, "Do we REALLY want to be flying later this year?" Being on a plane makes me nervous even in the best of times, and right now isn't the best of anything.
A Southwest Airlines plane was forced to abort its landing this morning after a private jet taxied in front of it across the runway at Midway Airport in Chicago.

Whatever that guy from The Real World is doing with the FAA has gotta stop.

I clicked on ONE post from the spiders reddit sub, and now my reddit feed is all spider pictures all the time.

Kids are off school this week for mid-winter break (aka “ski week”), so I am embarking on a whole house cleaning spree. Including closets, the garage, the yard, and the garden. It’s gonna be so freaking neat and tidy around here.✨

My kid keeps checking out a book from his school library called "TENTACLES" and every time I find it in his backpack the chronically online part of me is like...

I’m essentially gender swapping the X-Files in my current MS, and I’m curious to see if it’ll affect likeability to have the Mulder believer-type be a woman. Half afraid she come off as gullible and silly where a male character would be given more leeway. #amwriting

Eldest kid has been sick for 9 days now w/strep + a mystery virus that’s neither Covid or flu. Has missed over a week of school because the fever just won’t break & is accumulating a ton of make-up work. Now Littlest is sick, too. As is Husband.

Currently reading Heavenly Bodies by Paul Koudounaris.

Apparently, catacomb saints were particularly a thing in southern Germany and Austria, which is right where my ancestry goes back to. It’s like the Church played my great-great-whatever grandma so good w/this that it imprinted genetically.
