General Manager of Ackroyd’s Bakery. Occasional Grill Daddy at Dakota Inn Rathskeller. Fascinated by learning more & more about less & less.
As expected, I’ve had 3 people in a row hang up on me because I couldn’t promise them Christmas delivery (our deadline was 3 days ago). Tis the season for small businesses to ruin Christmas because we are humans with finite resources & time #smallbusiness

No you can't. Telling a computer to paint something for you is not remotely the same as painting something yourself, what is wrong with these people

A new burger place called Bun ‘N’ Run opened near me recently. Simple menu (burgers, fries, milkshakes). Excellent execution. Glad to have an affordable locally owned place like this near me. Price of double cheeseburger combo is less than most fast food places.

I’m convinced that once you have a favorite glass, beverages taste better out of that glass.

I’m honored to be watching John Cena’s last match tonight. He’s been the ideal pro wrestling superstar of our era #wrestlesky

I don’t drink energy drinks but I will mix 12 ounces of chilled French press coffee with Pibb Zero and sugar free cherry syrup.

I learned a quote in therapy that I will use on disgruntled customers, especially now when people shift blame on to us for their poor planning, “there’s nothing I can say right now to make this better.” #smallbusiness

When the weather is cold, mapo tofu is the best thing to warm you up. It’s savory, spicy, and the tingling Sichuan peppercorn is a delight

It’s officially the “you’ve ruined Christmas,” part of the holiday season. Not the “well, maybe I shouldn’t have waited so long to order,” part. Blame the seasonal small business with limited resources rather than taking accountability #smallbusiness

At what point does consolidation stop? Our media landscape is controlled by like 3 corporations.

I baked a bread pudding but instead of bread, I used apple fritters.

Going to attempt Apple Fritter Donut Pudding today for our Detroit Lions watch party tomorrow

One of the upsetting things about growing up in a toxic family structure is the constant feeling of paranoia. Not sure who was trying to reach me at 6:40 this morning, but I was not trying to find out. Posting this at all FEELS paranoid but I know I’m not alone.

1/ THREAD: This year ICE has sent a record 600 immigrant kids into federal shelters, more than in the previous four years combined. Data suggests some are being separated from their families.

For one 15-year-old, it began with a cracked windshield 👇

Social media makes death confusing. So many people LOVED my dad. He was incredibly hard on me. I was very privileged in many ways but he never LOVED me. I was a burden. He didn’t ever seem happy around us. Everything was an imposition. Those who were around him briefly were mesmerized by his charm.

About 13 years ago, I went no contact w/ my dad. Last night, he died. My oldest daughter called me around 11pm with the news. My dad was a raging narcissist. Death is confusing. I wasn’t sad that he’s physically gone because he’s been gone for more than a decade, but I am sad for my brothers & kids.

I’m 35 minutes in to the latest @ifbookspod.bsky.social about Sapiens. @michaelhobbes.bsky.social & @notalawyer.bsky.social are doing truly incredible work because the anger I feel as they’re quoting from the text is powering my workout. I want to throw my phone across the room.

How does anyone get to the point where they feel entitled to act with total impunity? The desire to destroy others’ lives, or even worse, not knowing or caring about the gravity of your actions seems completely sociopathic. Money & power does unimaginable things to those who have both #epsteinfiles

NEW: The Tate brothers, who have been accused of sexual misconduct in three countries, had their devices seized by law enforcement when they arrived in the U.S.

Days later, a White House official told DHS to return them.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

Love that title change. Not sure if I’m reading too much into this, but a common concern about Maxxine Dupree is that’s she’s green. What color was she wearing tonight when she upset Becky Lynch? Green. #wwe

“Platter for 4,” at Boff’s Mixed Grill in Centerline, MI. It’s enough for 8-10. Not pictured: fattoush, hummus, toum (whipped garlic), & crushed lentil soup. The quality of the food is eclipsed only by the genuine hospitality of Jay, the owner.

again i am perfectly fine with locking every one of Jeffrey Epstein's friends in prison, Democrat, Republican or Whatever.
Lest there be any insinuation that Dems spared their own. It would be tough for Kathy Ruemmler—Obama’s WH Counsel from 2011 to mid-2014—to come off looking worse in these docs the committee Dems released. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-su...
