Hey y’all. I know I swore off social media after DJT won. And I’ve done super good. But I’m taking a chance with this request.

Any of my #MemphisTwitter peeps interested in going to see Tyler Childers on Oct 5th at the Mempho fest? Nobody in my circle cares for him and I’d rather not go alone.

BlueSky has been a great methadone for my Twitter addiction, but I swear I know 100% I cannot do this Trump presidency online. So I am disconnecting from all social media.
I’m gonna keep this account alive but I’m deleting the app for now.

This is so true. Nothing makes me roll my eyes more than somebody with a front wheel drive pickup saying “oh I lived in Chicago for a winter, this is cake.”
Hey hi hello as there are likely some of y’all getting comments about who can and cannot drive in the snow, I am here to tell you as someone who worked auto claims for a decade: nobody can do it. They just want to feel better about having to go to work in the snow when you don’t have to

No way 5 years. I’m sure it’s already being planned somewhere in one of these nut job churches.
This sermon brought to you by FanDuel. The over/under on today’s sermon is 35 minutes.
in approximately 5 years, a megachurch will have ads for sports betting apps during the intermission

Two holidays that both fall on Wednesdays plus not taking any PTO other than the forced holidays have created an unexpected 4 different Sunday Scaries in 11 days.

BlueSky’s algorithm is so strange. Now all of a sudden I’m getting tons of pictures of stars/nightskys and mushrooms.

Like seriously WTF?

To the many people receiving an Alexa today: you now have a small device that's going to record everything you say for a company that absolutely will narc on you at a moment's notice

Use with caution, and do not say anything you wouldn't want a cop to hear around it.

Staying at my in-laws house this week. They were gracious enough to let us have the master BR.

Unfortunately the attached bathroom has a small round toilet seat.

I weigh 260 pounds. I am used to a larger oval.

Is it weird that when I have to go, I drive down to McDonalds?

I am so fucking sick of that AI generated Coca Cola commercial.

Regarding Feagins:

Murphy, Otay, McKinney and Love have their minds made up. Nothing is going to sway them. Coleman only voted Yes cause she was tired and was ready to go home.

WTF did Santa do now?
Xmas music is kinda cute when you're 5 and don't yet know these songs are celebrating an omnipotent man impregnating a teenage girl without consent.

I just found out that Jack Morris Glass sold to an out of town conglomerate in 2022. They kept the Jack Morris name but are now “AutoGlassNow”

This made me much more sad that I would have expected. RIP to one of the best local companies in town.

This was me between 27-37. Then I had a kid and it all changed. It’s been great for the last 10 years watching her learn all the words and having sing alongs in the car. 😁
One of the shit things about getting older is that you start to hate Christmas songs you once loved. The sheer ritualized repetition of them every year grinds you down, inducing groans where there once was euphoria.

Antidote: disco. Alternative playlist and dancing.

I absolutely love BlueSky but how long will it take the algorithm to learn that I don’t wanna see cat pictures?

I’m 48 years old and I kinda miss the 27 inch Sony CRT that we had when I was 16.
I feel old

Shopping for a 4K TV and I cannot meaningfully tell the difference (nor do I think I care?)

I want to see Wicked. But I don’t think I want to see Jeff Goldblum be the bad guy.

OMG I have thought this so many times in my adult life getting up and going to work.
the breakfast scene in Pee-Wee's Big Adventure set very unrealistic expectations about how fun waking up would be

Bane did it to me again. All he needed was 10 points this time. Not 15. And what did he get?????

8. And he was the only leg of a 12 leg parlay that didn’t hit.

For reals this time, I’m done including him in any bets from here on out.

Done.

If you didn’t deactivate your Twitter before coming here, do yourself a favor and go ahead and do it.

It’s time to move on and don’t look back. You can do it. I have faith in you.
