I'd been assuming it's because AS YOU KNOW I operate in an autistic email and conversational modality but NOW I gotta worry if it's actually people are just guessing what words I wrote instead of reading them

and that's
really at odds with my default philosophy of assuming competence

reading to the end of the article for Hurting My Own Feelings in Poetry Major jesus christ

but oh my god the number of emails I have sent in the last three years where the answer appeared to be to an entirely different piece of text and this is…not necessarily more than 50% younger than me

yeahhhhhh my own vet bills can surely attest to why that would be a nonstarter and even the generic enzymes on chewy aren't exactly cheap

comparatively I guess they are but objectively it's still steep

I really spent like a LOT of vet visits going, the diarrhea is really bad, she doesn't seem to be digesting her food at all, please what can we do and nobody thought to run a TLI until I specifically asked for it because ??? not listening to the exact words I was saying I guess???

I'm sure you and the shelter vets have discussed exhaustively but since it was so much too late for us, um

have they checked his pancreatic enzyme levels? when Toof's finally came back they were way low and I can't help but worry we could have made her more comfortable and gotten more time

😭 hate this for you and for Merlin like I hated it for me and for Twoflower

I never believed it because like. I wasn't born ten minutes ago? but I am nevertheless keeping track of how much money they're allegedly going to give me, and unless I've missed one we are up to at least $7k this year alone

Joe, this goes for you too. $12k, old man.

a brief google suggests yes??

I don't do gummies but I do love a nerds and now I'm sitting here thinking about

classic
spreeeeeeeee

it's also maybe not worth the political capital, compared to millions of people's healthcare? if I'm gaming that out?

like oh you get your last signature and force a vote, okay, fails on party lines, child sex abusers: 1, people who bafflingly need insurance premiums lower than a mortgage: 0
??????

what is the play like

surely there is a PLAY here, what are we doing, we trying to force the house back in session to conclude some ~unfinished business~ because that's uhhhhh hell of a gamble on the epstein files

yeah sure I heard they're "worse than we thought" but
teflon in more way than one

oh buddy you are going to have to do a lot better than this if you want to convince us you didn't draw out six weeks of suffering and uncertainty in exchange for sweet fuck all

Is it worse to feel them dropping through one’s underpants and down the pant leg, or a surprise evergreen shower upon the thigh? Let’s try both and find out, I’m sure we can expand our radius of congressional leadership to accommodate a more robust experimental sample.

Dash of hurting my own feelings too but like

No, we are not shipping a fleece from northern South Dakota to Nevada and then moving it to North Dakota in a couple months, on top of furlough woes that’s just a silly circuit.

I MEAN
not *you* you
but ME you

buddy they're all here for you specifically

yeah the thought occurred to me but still absolutely no reason to make that wild freehand cut on the right edge of "The" and I just think that's extraordinary
