Big news! Music historians have found the music to a long list Beethoven's 10th symphony and recorded a German orchestra's performance of it.

If the US gov't is so set on destroying everything DEI, they should really start with all the Opus DEI members.

As a recovering Catholic, I can confirm they are WAY more problematic than laws written to ensure everyone got a fair shot and weren't passed over for less qualified white dudes.

I watched the season finale of Paradise and some college basketball tonight.

Sounds like there wasn't anything else worth watching.

I've been told my texts are too long/formal, and the point is "to be quick."

Question: did you have follow-up questions? No?

So by taking the time to type it out, properly, & you reading a few minutes, the convo was done in <10 minutes as opposed to 2 hours of back and forth?

Sounds quick to me.

I needed a break from the news cycle w/ some (mostly) non-political tv.

If you were a fan of the big NBC/Fox comedies from '06-20, you should watch Running Point. From the creative team to the actors, it takes the best from all of them (even paintball)!

I'm on ep 7 now, but giving it 2 thumbs up!

I'm not deleting facebook, for a few reasons, one being business. I AM reporting and blocking all the RWNJ stuff that's taken over my feed (zero chance the algorithm used my engagement for this, unless it's opposite day).

I don't live in Texas, but I know their governor is a fraud in a human suit.

Apparently my joints think they're Magnitude from NBC's Community. They keep talking to me, but all they say is "Pop! POP!"

I don't mind my neighbors exercising their 2nd amendment rights... I just wish they'd do it quietly.

Stranger reacting to the current events on the internet: "well, the US seems to be good at repeating history (even the bad bits)."

Me: "well, about half of them can't read the history books anyway, so they failed the first time."

I just wish the rest of the class didn't get held back, too.

Did your child lose their book collection in the Los Angeles fires? Are you a teacher at a school that lost its library or your classroom library? Whether you need one book or a whole library, we can replace your books. 📚

Everyone else, please boost this post so we can connect with those in need. 🙏

I'm trying to break my Scottish blooded collie of her need to come in only to go back outside 30 seconds later. We're currently negotiating how long she has to stay inside.

She's informed me she'll be pouting and staring longingly at the snow for the remaining 10 minutes of the 15 minute deal.

Pro tip: if you're wearing oven mitts, family members can't see that you've flipped them off.

My cousin messaged me that she got a keyboard for Christmas and asked me about recommendations for resources so she can relearn what she forgot from childhood and expand her knowledge

I hope she enjoys the absolute dissertation I sent her, complete with pictures.

Which couple name are we using for our co-president-elects?

Trusk? Or Mump?

Answering "living the dream" every time someone asks me how I'm doing because, technically, nightmares are a dream genre.

I love Shrinking. It's such an amazing show.

I'm also 100% convinced that, based on the interviews I've seen, Harrison Ford is just playing himself with a different name. Whatever it is, it's the best role I've ever seen him in (and yes, I saw Star Wars and Indiana Jones).

I don't personally care for pecans, but my mom does, and so I introduced her to Snickers Pecan bars (by getting her one), and I have definitely solodofied my spot in the top 2 (out of her 5) kids.

Being the favorite is too much pressure anyway.

If you have someone coming to your house, at your request, for a service...

PUT IT IN YOUR CALENDAR. SET AN ALARM OR REMINDER.
*CALL AND CANCEL IF YOU HAVE TO LEAVE.

Signed,

*I understand things happen, but for some, forgetting is habitual.

Sleeping (and snoring) as though she was the one who spent the day in the kitchen preparing Thanksgiving dinner, single pawedly.

Today, I told a student that his brain was good for things other than sarcasm, and his mom laughed put loud and then thanked me.

It's a team effort.

Due to a family medical emergency (everyone's ok-ish now), I ended up in charge of making the deviled eggs for today's gathering I couldn't even attend.

Quite literally the best I've ever had (better than my mom's (it was her recipe), and no one else's had come close). It hurt to let them go, TBH.

I just finished season 1 of Netflix's A Man on the Inside starring Ted Danson & created by Michael Schur. If you loved The Good Place, you'll enjoy it. Warning, you may cry. I did, & I'm heartless...it did hit close to home, though.

Go check it out! There's lots of great cameos & easter eggs, too.

TFW an older man in big overalls acts proud of/impressed by you because your 20 year old truck died halfway into a parking space & you played w/ battery connections as if you knew what you were doing & got it to work while only panicking on the inside.

Caught my girl looking majestic in the autumn sun. Asked her to smile and she went into sport mode instead.
