My 2nd grader just told me that a classmate taught him about a special doll with magical evil powers to control other people by sticking pins in it, called a **doo-doo doll.** I can't stop laughing!

I used to repeatedly tell my kids, while walking thru clothing stores, that the boy statues are mannequins and the girl statues are womanequins.
I was helping my son with his homework and I told him that a female gazelle was called a madamazelle so now I have another meeting with his teacher.

I'm just an old man, mansplaining to no one in particular, "Well aaaktshually, the 12 Days of Christmas refer to Dec 25 and the next 11 days after Christmas. No swans a-swimming before Dec 25. The Western church does Christmas Dec 25, the Eastern (Orthodox) church 12 days later does Epiphany Jan 6."

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.
They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.
The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.

There's something really gross about politicians symbolically "feeding the troops" at the border and not the child refugees trying to cross it.

My almost 5-year-old son exuberantly sings,
"O'er the fields we go,
laughing all the way.
Bells >>about to ring<<
Making spirits bright..."
Our house also proudly tops spaghetti with a sprinkling of Farmer John Cheese. 😊

How did Bobby Kennedy's apple fall so far from the tree? I guess Jr.'s brainworm ain't no joke.
RFK, Jr. & Rudy Giuliani are 2 folks who were set for life if they could just shut their mouths and stay out of the lime light. What an unbelievable character study in tRump's orbit ruining people.

There's a strange idea among moderates that radicals take far left positions for the vibes, or to posture, or just because they're radical position. We take these stances because we want a livable planet, we want people to have good lives, and because in many cases they're winning positions.

Still going to listen (and sing along to) "Alice's Restaurant" over the radio on Thanksgiving. But this year, I'll pour one out for the one thing you couldn't get at Alice's Restaurant.
Rest well, Alice Brock.
