Off topic but I am happy to do a lucky trade if you are ever in SF. I will be in NY later this month as well. I am always tickled when we raid together-a lucky 🍀 trade would be a new level of awesomeness 😃

New users: in a few months you, too, may see an Alf doll at a flea market and have trouble explaining to your companion why you’re giggling so much

No doubt he used his favorite “rocket launch” gif when Ezra Klein’s Charlie Kirk column dropped

Yeah, I mean, how else can he keep up with his role models like Rahm Emanuel. I’ll bet his niece is giving him all sorts of grief about it, though

He hasn’t made it to Bluesky, has he? I miss that account so much

Looks like E.T.’s grandpa 🤎

The fact the fur pattern on the one the left resembles a backstage headset adds to the delightfulness 😂

Fingers crossed my Walgreens appointment in SF goes as smoothly tomorrow. I have mitral valve prolapse, a heart condition that has never given me a moment of trouble…. but it’s suddenly very important™️ to me ♥️💉

This reminds me of when I got extra “points” on Weight Watchers because I was breast feeding. The group leader joked that the 10 extra points were tempting, but other group members shouldn’t get pregnant just for that reason 😂

I visited the Sewers of Paris museum back in the late ‘90s. A bit smelly but also interesting!

Leno helped launch Schwarzenegger into the CA governor’s office…. which at the time I found to be pretty alienating!

When my younger turned 4 he requested a “monster vacuum party.” I borrowed two big shop vacs from friends having work done on their homes, and party favors were packaged in vacuum cleaner bags I got from Freecycle. It was such a blast. 😝 Similar “how can I execute this??” issues 😁

Yes!! The dehumanization, the blaming people for their own misery, all of it!!

Bonus: physically can’t doomscroll ….

I took up crochet 🧶 during lockdown. I *still* mostly suck at it but it brings me joy. It’s also kind of nice to have something in my life where I don’t feel compelled to be a perfectionist about it?

PBS did something like this is 2002. It was fascinating!
