Has anyone seen these figurines in store or online this year? We got the mummy and pumpkin-head a couple years ago at Menards and just need the cat to complete the set. Can’t find it anywhere!

Based on this logic, wouldn’t it also be harmful to men? Or are men too tough to be hurt and it’s just the mentally weak women and children who need to be protected? 🙄🙄🤬🤬

I guess this is where we are for the moment. If you can’t tell, she’s literally pressed up against my face.

I was expecting awful but it was a little better than I expected. Slightly less sweet than I expected. I don’t think I’d want to eat a whole sandwich of it, but it was ok.

I kinda wanna push these frenemies together in the hopes they realize that snuggling is warm and nice… but I’m smart enough to know that they’d just get pissed and more resistant. So, baby steps. Napping near each other is a good step.

Tightened the springs on our old, sagging couch and it’s practically like new again. I’m shocked and elated!

Garmin says I slept good last night but I woke up so tired and cranky that I feel like it did not do its job well.
(Yes, I know these metrics should be taken w/ a grain of salt at best but isn’t it sad that I have to say this because I KNOW someone out there is going to tell me they’re useless?)

I cannot stop giggling at this. I’m picturing myself in a Zoom meeting with a hot towel wrapped around my face with just my eyes showing.

One use of AI that I’ve appreciated is the aggregation of thousands of Amazon reviews for a product. In today’s case, I appreciated that so many reviews mentioned “the girls” that it ended up in the AI summary.

The PB to chocolate ratio in these Reese skeletons is way off. The bats and pumpkins are way better.

Anyone else have a cat that brings you a million toys for… some reason that you can’t quite figure out? Yes, they’re probably gifts. But sometimes she wants to play. Sometimes she wants food.
I think toys are her love language.

This is the sweetest goddamn ice cream I’ve ever eaten.
But it was delicious and I did eat it all in only two sittings. Bonus: no Lactaid needed!

Does this cat have the best RBF or what?

The verdict?
The fries were great, but I’m partial to krinkle cut fries.
The fish was nice and crunchy.
The slider was… ok.
Chicken circles? 🤢 I’m not a fan of any chicken that has been ground up and forced into a shape. The texture was disgusting.
I appreciated the fluffy buns!

That sounds very boring. We liked ours because it also has orange-y spots in it that make it more interesting. (We still haven’t put the new baseboard on… this was taken… awhile ago.)

I’ve never had a cat that steals things off the counter as much as this cute little cat. It’s adorable and annoying at the same time.

Well, that was pret-ty boring. With half the squash it might’ve been ok. It was a fun experiment though. I’ve seen others have much better luck.
