Right! I would probably be a bigger Wild fan if I could actually watch a game. Instead the Stars are my B team. I would be a lot more likely to travel to Minnesota than Texas for a game but not gonna happen when I can't follow their season

What was casual about the lecture I got about ranking, rounds, location choices, pulling up the website and looking through the pictures and I believe I remember a rant about a Eurasian eagle owl but okay Dan πŸ‘Œ

I am irrationally angry at this. This is why I don't play this bullshit game. Don't rope me into this nonsense ever again.

Today’s matchup

I’m no Nostradamus but I’m expecting Martin to outpitch his opponent and Chicago to come up with the win.

Shopping for an urn on Amazon and GIRL pull yourself together one of these things is not like the others. Although can you imagine this at the wake? Someone tries to pour a cup of Joe and nope, cup of Colleen, RIP (rest in percolator)

Catching up on the hockey I've missed over the past couple days and OMG this #Sabres #Lightning game is the most insane thing I've seen all season. I don't have a dog in this fight so I am loving it. Get em fellas

I wanna thank this shithead right here for picking one of the most stressful times of my life to make a great escape. Luckily Steve McQueen here chickened out after about 15 minutes in the wild kingdom and showed up shaking at the back door. I love you, Merry, but you're a dick #CatsOfBluesky

My mom's hospice guidebook has a section for caregivers on what to do in case of nuclear fallout and I started to chuckle a bit until I remembered the *gestures about vaguely*

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β€” young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β€” and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

We're about 13 minutes into the second and the Hawks don't have a shot on goal during the period?!

To be fair, I found some that were more like $10K, but further outside the Des Moines metro. This one is a few blocks from my office. It's all outrageous

Well this makes the $13.5K monthly rent worth it (yes that is what a skilled nursing facility costs in the US)

Whelp this day sure had a plot twist. My mom is at the end of her life and starting hospice care. My son said goodbye to her today, just in case she doesn't see tomorrow. BUT the nursing home gets CHSN so I am giving a MASTERCLASS in disassociation rn (she is not alert, I'm not ignoring her promise)
