Baptized a Catholic, but born an atheist, Democrat, Red Sox fan... Boston since I reached the age of reason, but OFW (Originally from Worcester). Occasionally comment, seldom post. All things considered, I'd rather be in Ireland (especially Galway).
Just to let our Brit friends know that we sorta get it, the day after Thanksgiving a lot of us will be eating sandwiches full of leftover turkey and stuffing. Our version of carb on carb, with a bit of protein thrown in. Plus cranberry sauce, of course.

Thanks for making me want to kill for a Friendly's hot fudge sundae on coffee. Better yet, their long-gone Swiss chocolate almond sundae. Oh, for that tiny cup of salted alminds to sprinkle on top.

You and me both. There's plenty I don't/won't agree with Pope Leo on, but as a baptized-a-Catholic-but-born-an-atheist type (with 16 years of Catholic education), I love what he's doing on immigration. And now this...I felt the same about Pope Francis (who, I think, also met with some trans folks).

And there's just one book that often doesn't make any sense and is outdated in so many parts.

I'd say he's our very own Lord Haw-Haw, but deep down, Hannity may not actually believe any of the nonsense he spews (and allows to be spewed).

Jim McGovern represents my home town (or, as we would once identify ourselves, my old parish: OLA). I haven't lived in Worcester in years, but so proud of this wonderful homie! @repmcgovern.bsky.social

I'm definitely hoarding. Stocked up at the store but couldn't find any bucatini, so ordered a six-pack on line.

Better even than putting the needle on the record: Stop a record from skipping by putting a nickel or a penny on whatever they call the thing on the tone arm that's on top of the needle. Had to use judiciously, as it could scratch the record.

Is this a for-real pic of Mar-a-Lago food? WTF is it even supposed to be? A nasty looking lamp chop, greasy chicken skewers, and a lobster tail prepared the way no lobster should be? What a gag fest!
