Misspelling is not a sign of stupidity. English hates everyone equally.
Wrapped up playing Dordogne. It's an indie French game presented in a watercolor style. It's low key and low stakes.

I was charmed by the Dakota Johnson "Persuasion" from 2022. This is because I'm a complete ignoramus of the book and I generally don't know what I'm talking about. Regency-esque is a thing that shouldn't really exist, and I love things that shouldn't exit.

Today in useless yard work, I pulled up the soaker hoses from the blueberry (wild grape vine) bed. Ugh.

Not insane, but abusive. Not crazy, but manipulative. Not demented, but cruel.
